It’s incredibly presumptuous to believe one knows what another needs. Looking out for one’s own self interest and creating a society where people can pursue their self interests without infringing upon others’ pursuits is a far superior approach.

I noticed she did not answer the question about a protest in support of Palestine when other protest were allowed. She instead told an anecdote about suspending someone who purchased a weapon This has nothing to do with allowing a protest and freedoms of speach

If I am not for myself, who will be for me? If I am only for myself, what am I?

Also, once you find out about the way colleges pay bond holders and operate as investment vehicles for the wealthy while creating intelligent slaves through the bestowal of exorbitant debt obligations, you begin to realize why college is less popular today in the US than it once was.

Steven, don't be so biased to Israel. Be fair

I don't really understand this comment. Listening to the entire podcast he doesn't mention much about the situation other than the conversation about how the colleges are handling the protests.

Anything less that pro-Israel propaganda is "hate speech" to the pro-Israeli parasites of the world.
