Thank you for means testing the revolutionary student demands

[–] LesbianLiberty@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago

To be fair this isn't liberal means testing, this is perhaps more like making sure objectives are still achievable within the scope so far of student protests. Something like the reorganization of profitable university systems will require backing a communist party instead of just stopping the US sending arms to israel

adding unrelated out-of-scope demands is a known wrecker tactic if I'm recalling correctly. Although I suppose in this case the first items are equally unlikely to happen given how hard a line the US is running on opposition to anti-Zionism.

However, the actual demands from the organizers are more explicit and worded better: https://www.leftvoice.org/cuny-joins-universities-around-the-country-sets-up-gaza-solidarity-encampment/
