When schools send a bunch of cops in to fight college students, it immediately makes them look brave and justifies their cause. Everyone roots for the underdog especially when they're actually risking something.
Meanwhile at UCLA they're just letting the protestors do whatever. So they're inevitably making themselves look bad.
Beloved parts of campus are spray-painted with cringe anarchy symbols. Walkways are blocked so students can't get to class. Protestors keep climbing onto building scaffolding which impedes construction for no reason. There's a PSA that no bananas or peanuts are allowed at the encampment because someone has an allergy.
I can feel the vibe slowly beginning to shift against them just because they keep doing stupid college-student type stuff.
They really only win when images of cops arresting them are promulgated through the mainstream, because they invoke the cultural memory of Kent State and student protests of the 60s. Columbia is the most embarassing example because the administration is allowing Elise Stefanik to dictate their response because they're more afraid of protecting their jobs, which is ironic because they'll probably be losing them soon and having a Scarlett letter going forward in left spaces because of how they treated them. The Republicans couldn't be happier that this implosion is happening in an election year, it's just impressive that the Biden administration has been able to side step for this long.
Please COPS! PLEASE BEAT US TO DEATH!
The video of the Columbia students who took over a building requesting humanitarian aid at a press conference was so embarrassing. The video of the horse cops breaking up the UT protest was embarrassing. Ignoring seems to be the only good method.
A picture of themself being arrested is what they need to propel their post Uni activism career.
This sub gets too caught up in optics. The reality is repression is effective. It may strengthen passive activism and sympathy, but those people don't do a thing. They're not a problem. Meanwhile repression actively hinders a sizeable part of the demographics that aren't useless, the ones actively doing something. It's a net positive to dissuade them with violence. This is based on my experience in France, maybe not fully applicable to the US where protests are a lot more performative in nature.

everyone here probably aligns with the protestors morally and ethically but it's always frustrating to see the left lose the war of optics because we can't help but be cringe.
I'm so checked out, how are they being cringe? All I see is them having occupied the national spotlight and a heightening of political tension
They took over Hamilton Hall (I'm fine with this) and then during a press conference today talked about the need for students occupying the Hall to receive "basic humanitarian aid" unless Columbia wants them to "starve and die of thirst". When told by a reporter that they are simultaneously calling themselves revolutionaries while also asking to be fed by Columbia, she says they aren't asking to be fed but asking "that they don't violently stop us from bringing in basic humanitarian aid". When asked if Columbia is stopping delivery of food, she says they are "looking for a commitment that they won't". Just unbelievably cringe. To top it off stood behind her during this conference is a bearded man wearing a crop top and keffiyeh
Seen another one of students who were asked what the goal was. She said showing support for Palestine and demanding NYU stops. When asked "stops what?" she says "Honestly I'm not so sure" then she asks the girl next to her what they are protesting for NYU to stop and she says "I wish I were more educated on that".
There was a student with a "severe banana allergy" so the encampment was made a banana free zone, but Zionist anti-protestors brought bananas and laughed while eating them from a distance which made the students furious.
For anyone averse to cringe its really hard to cheer these people on
!chuds laugh at the absolute state of !redscarepod

Never have I seen so many governments and powerful institutions bend at the knee for Israel to silence overwhelming public support for Palestine
THIS TIME THE DEATH SQUADS WILL BE REAL GUISE TRUST ME
Get out and talk to real people. There is not overwhelming support for Palestine in the US. Americans identify more with the cops than the fat enby protesters. Not a judgment call - just reality.
this party pooper ruining things
You are getting it backwards, really. >Israel has no power, they exist because America wants them to. They're a useful regional power and ally against Iran. If the US stopped supporting them they wouldn't exist. Criticism of Israel and zionism gets shut down so fast because its criticism of US imperialism. Zionism is just a convenient cover.
That is to say, a LOT of this, has ZERO to do with neither Israel NOR Gaza, and everything to do with power-grabs & power-moved which can serve as a guise for being "about Israel" or "about Gaza" or about "maintaining civility" "peace" "safety", etc.
Remember the phrase "Abundance of caution" in 2020? There are so many games being played at so many levels. That's why the gravitation towards conspiracy feels so strong.

u/AlicentAlicent is dead. She's probably moved on to another sockpuppet but I'll take what I can get. I didn't get a screenshot of it but shortly after @cyberdick posted my first post on r/rspod she changed her avatar to Candace Owens, presumably because she and Ben Jewish chadpiro fell out. She made a few other posts, naturally about G*d's chosen before deleting her account at an unspecified time. Rest in piss, bozo!
Gaze1112 is still chimping out every day at a decreased pace, managing only 77 posts in the past week. Low energy; sad!
Particular_Log_3594 has not slowed down. In fact, his posting rate has multiplied by a factor of five! 483 posts in the last week by my reckoning. What a cute twink!
He's posted 3 more times in /r/redscarepod and none in /r/rspod (probably because it's too small) and has been noticed once more, unfortunately by two videogame posters.
If the numbers don't mean much to you, maybe a graphic example of his posting will mean more to you :
Right now there's only one sandBIPOC seethe post on the /r/redscarepod front page and it's about some nerd foid at USC. The poster is odd, a 12 year old account whose oldest visible post is only 6 months old, and started posting in /r/redscarepod about 2 months ago. The karma seems to match the visible posts, so whatever. Their first post was about that libtard who got stabbed in New York by the 0400 lunchtime rowdy, which is funny because a poster on /r/redscarepod was seething because he was a friend of the libtard and the whole world was dunking on his waterheaded friend. (I couldn't find that post so you'll just have to believe me, frick you )
Anyways, frick sandseethers.

Is that true
They love the uneducated
But the main sub is too mean
https://old.reddit.com/r/rspod/comments/1c4bzr6/the_main_sub_has_become_so_mean/?sort=controversial
You could post the most inoffensive thing and like 3 people will try to “dunk” on you. It's just a circlejerk of who can can be the snarkiest contrarian. This sub does it too but I feel like only when it's justified, people here seem more chill and not as automatically disagreeable.
Wtf did she just describe the rDrama net forum?
These girls and gays need to take the rDrama net pill already. We have a hole for you people. Join us.

wow so i really need to return to therapy. what started out as a friendly conversation with my coworker turned into me telling him my trauma, that i want him to hit me, that i used to do s*x work, i don't even know.
he was really nice and told me he basically has thought about me since the day we met and really likes me, said he wants to take me out, etc. but then i was like “it's not like that”
i'm not worried about him but i'm scared other people heard me. i haven't done this in 4 months but now i feel truly awful… any words of advice?
: "I want you to hit me."
: "So can I take you out to dinner sometime or..."

This is the transphobic post
Rspod is less modded compared to redscarepod. That would have been removed in the main sub.

If you've glanced at /r/all anytime recently you must have noticed the inexorable creep of seething sandBIPOCy in to subs that have nothing to do with brown savages. In particular, r/therewasanattempt is quickly becoming a designated pooping street for this, with 8 of the week's top 25 posts being sandseethe. Because I don't use any browser addons/plugins to block an unlimited number of subs, I'm stuck with the default 100 which I filled up immediately getting all the and shit off my feed, so I'm subjected to incessant global southoid shrieking every time I check /r/all.
Well I was laying in bed doing a little doom scrolling and saw a post about Elizabeth Sacagawea pissing about Gaza. Naturally the poster is a randomly generated username,
so I click on it to see how obsessed he is. He's about as bad as Gaze1112, (whom I have stopped logging because there's not really any more need ) racking up nearly 1500 posts/comments in 3 1/2 months. Literally every single piece of activity is sandsneed.
As it turns out, this is one of the lead perpetrators of sand encroachment on normie subs, with this particular r-slur making 30 posts on /r/therewasanattempt, and boyhowdy is he raking in the karma on it, yielding tens of thousands of updoots for his lazy propaganda.
But back to redscarepod, he seems to have only added/been ordered to add it on to his list yesterday, only making two posts so far. And surprisingly, I'm not the first to notice. Users u/oursluttylife and u/Shleauxmeaux both noticed on his first post on the sub.
I didn't go too in depth on this one, breaking down sub-by-sub like the others because this cute twink just spams the same shit all over the fricking place. It's a fricking nightmare and you get the point.
BONUS:
As I was getting the links for /r/therewasanattempt I found an 8 hour old account, InnAnn-107, that has made six comments and two posts about Chadsreal, already raking in the karma. This leads me to believe it's being used to farm karma for new shill accounts to go on to smaller subreddits that have karma limits. Sad!
