Most impressive part of this mess is how Hamas somehow made themselves invisible. They’d literally not part of the conversation at all

Remember when Ali said there is no chance Russia will invade Ukraine? Then a week later Russia invaded Ukraine?
It’s a good idea to remember whatever Ali says or thinks about geopolitics- the opposite is actually true
The leaders of Hamas are billionaires, they became billionaires because of the Israel-Palestine conflict - they will not let there be peace because then they lose their income, so strange how this is never discussed

The Vietnam war involved men from the US and Aus (and elsewhere) being conscripted to go fight in a foreign country over something that didn’t affect them.
THATS WHY people were protesting, because our own men were being forced to go fight - to think these uni protests are equivalent because “tHe uNi hAz tIeS 2 wEaPoN mAnuFacTuReRz”
Even though they all went and bought the $14 Kmart tent despite Wesfarmers being a strong supporter of Israel.
The uni protesters are the stupidest segment of our society - and the protests exemplify it

I'm glad Mislav is, once again, the voice of reason on the pod

Mislav has fallen into the trap of "if it is bias, it is bad" ignoring the fact that all humanity and everyone is bias, and that's not inherently bad what is bad is the outcome of said bias. And, most especially, Mis is ignoring his own bias of assuming everything with a bias is bad, so he can get off scot free with being lazy because "oh that's bias so I need not care about it".

The only way to bring peace to Israel / Palestine is to reinstate the kingdom of Jerusalem

I expect Mislav to resist the subject, but I hope Jordan checks himself before generalising the student movement against the occupation.
To say that the university students from NYU, UBC, USC, HU, and ULCA are only doing encampment because it's fashionable to do is like saying all the Vietnam student protests were fashionable back in the 70s. It's not too much to ask for your money to be divested away from brutal occupation, but apparently, it's hipster to say so.
I know the crew acknowledge that the quality of life in the US is disturbing and pathetically sad, to say the least. To be in the advocacy directly against THE establishment means sacrificing any career prospects and suffering against police brutality and zionist coward hit squads would've been the last thing the students ever want to face. Yet, they marched on despite such real threats.
I'm just mad that Mislav still hasn't renamed Fast Fox to General Mislav Operation Chicken.

here’s a conspiracy to out-conspiracy; russian bots in social media adds more attention to the pro-palestinian so the attention to the russo-ukraine war gets silenced and the west has to focus on pouring more funding to Isr@3l

One of the biggest regrets from my Uni days is that I never had the guts to set up a “Fascist Alternative” booth next to theirs. Just imagine the screeching

I spent one night at the encampment at university of Sydney. The entire thing has devolved into a factional war between the different University socialist groups each of which passively aggressively shitting on the other and fighting for the moral high ground. I guarantee a majority of them are unread on the subject.
The whole protest movement has been co-opted by socialist alternative, the same organisation that throws ‘Marxism’ conventions. Everyone who I’ve spoken to who has left Salt has described it as a cult.
Additionally the media correspondence has been done and the organisation leaders are so narcissistic that they refuse to admit when they make a mistake.
For example one of the ANU students went on the radio and said they had unconditional support for Hamas and their org refused to back down.
