      Okay, I’ll tell Biden to put away his taser and stop saying that the Palestinian protesters don’t have a point and should be brutally attacked by local police.

          “There’s the right to protest, but not the right to cause chaos,” Biden said shortly before leaving the White House for a trip to North Carolina. “People have the right to get an education, the right to get a degree, the right to walk across campus safely without fear of being attacked.”

          Holy shit literal fascism Biden please put the tazer away

            He is spreading lies that the protests are dangerous. He is saying they are chaotic when they clearly are not. This is fascism, the fact you can’t see that is alarming. You’re so, so, deeply brainwashed.

        Maybe try telling him criticism of Isreal isn’t antisemitic, he seems a little confused about it

          Yeah, I remember when he said “Those Palestinian protesters don’t have any valid concerns, they’re just a bunch of antisemites.”

              Ah, I knew that lazy soundbite would come up. You get that from a script, or are you just good at parroting?

              “Mr. President, what’s your message to the protesters? Do you condemn the antisemitic protests on college campuses?” reporters asked the president after his speech Monday afternoon.

              “I condemn the antisemitic protests,” Biden replied to the reporters. “That’s why I set up a program to deal with that.”

              “I also condemn those who don’t understand what’s going on with the Palestinians.”

                  Yes? That Biden is condemning, specifically, protests that are antisemitic, as that is specifically how the question is phrased, not all campus protests.
