Protesting is nothing new.
Being arrested for protesting is nothing new.
Some famous people have been arrested protesting.

John Lewis was first arrested in 1960.
Martin Sheen has been arrested 66 times for protesting. These are recent examples.

Arresting peaceful college protestors is a great distraction from letting anyone know about what they are protesting about.

Do societies grow more fragile and vulnerable to collapse?
https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20240424-do-societies-civilisations-grow-old-frail-and-vulnerable-to-collapse

Here's the one thing capitalists don't want you to realize about politics.

Almost every issue and complaint from both sides of the political spectrum would be solved by eating the rich.

This isn't left vs. right, it's top vs. bottom.
