Beginning with Barack Obama, the last true leader of the Democratic Party, every liberal affiliate is encouraging civil unrest. Washington has cut funding to universities that permit pro-Hamas rallies, but that has not deterred these organizations from permitting protests to continue. New York University is not merely permitting protests but encouraging them. In fact, they are urging white students to use “white privilege” to heighten the unrest.
The university created a “Protest Tips and Resources” page on its website to outline “Best Practices for Protesting Safely.” NYU claims that these protests are “especially for Black and Brown people” and they encourage white students to “[u]se white privilege to protect others.”
I believe it is important to highlight what the Democrats are encouraging young, impressionable students to do to support their cause. “You have the right to peacefully assemble — however, there have been many situations in which college protests have escalated to the point of arrest,” one article reads, followed by telling students to prepare for jail.
“Sign up for jail support if available. Even if you don’t anticipate you will need to sign up for jail support, protesting may involve interaction with law enforcement. It is best to be safe and share your emergency contacts with organizers just in case. Write important phone numbers, such as a family member or emergency legal counsel, on your arm should you need it later and not have access to your phone.”
No where do they explain the severity of arrests ending up on a person’s permanent record beyond the school, where they could be denied for future employment opportunities or worse. These people are openly encouraging students to prepare for arrest before attending a protest. They are willing to use students as human shields to promote their agenda since those pulling the strings certainly do not want to risk arrest.
The DEI courses teach that having a white savior complex is harmful, but in the case of promoting liberal policies, white knighting is encouraged. White students have been asked to take on the bulk of the legal responsibility since they believe the legal system will unfairly punish brown and black students.
Using young adults fresh out of high school as political shields is abhorrent. These students do not understand the true legal consequences that will come from the “sacrifices,” as Obama worded it, that the Democrats are encouraging them to take on to promote an agenda that they likely won’t support in a few years when they’re living in the real world.
