    If a viewpoint is wrong, then it’s not bad to silence it goddamn.

    We had a protest on my campus recently and the entire news coverage was about how great it is that while the protest was happening, there were also counterprotests. And there’s something so great and magical about my schools community that people who like genocide and those that don’t can make their voices heard without resorting to violence.

    My school issued a statement about the protests, not responding to the actual issues, but reaffirming their commitment to protecting the right to lawful protest (ie not being disruptive in any meaningful way).
