3. Civil Disobedience

Civil Disobedience is the point of a mass protest, not attracting the media to your vandalized squatter’s encampment and ranting about what someone told you to say.

Learn how to protest or get dragged out and arrested.

But getting dragged out and arrested en masse is the point to start with. Agent provocateurs are the cowards who don’t want to be arrested and don’t have any skin in the game.

Students are getting a bad rap blaming them for violence and property destruction caused by those who are simply guests on campus. Conflating the two groups in news reporting and right-wing commentary is the goal of propagandists like Vlad Putin. Don’t fall for it.
