Empathy is a human trait that is celebrated. It is
natural for us as a species to have some degree of empathy for fellow man. I’m
sure we have all known someone with a mortal disease that we feel a compassion
for because we know what the end game is.
We base our concerns from past experiences and
research, and we try to put ourselves in the shoes of the one suffering from
it. Many people, for example, might question their religious beliefs at a time
like this because of the unfairness of the situation. “Why them and not me,” or
“If there is a God why did he take this person?” is a common thought process.
Where things become skewed is when the research is
tainted.
This is the crossroads where we find ourselves right
now. The recent college protests that take a Pro-Palestinian stance can be very
bewildering. Many students that are interviewed either don’t have a clear
answer about why they are protesting or haven’t a clear understanding of the
history of the conflict.
I blame that on the liberal indoctrination of the
Universities. On one hand the Administrations of these Universities act as if
they are some innocent bystander that don’t know why the students are
protesting, when in fact the seeds of liberalism that they have sown are
finally ready to harvest.
History classes on a High School level are practically
non-existent now, much less at a college level. If history is taught it has
either been rewritten or the presentation has been tainted by the liberal
teacher or professor.
Obviously these rather confused children have no real
idea of how Israel was formed, and the adversities they have overcome to
continue their existence. They have no idea how the “Palestinians” came to be,
or the countries they have been exiled from. They have no idea that the rest of
the Arab world despises them.
But yet they certainly have a misplaced empathy for
them, ingrained by the very Universities that are now struggling with how to
deal with the protests.
The chickens have finally come home to roost, and they
will have to deal with it!
Not all protests are violent though:
Maybe this can help the Gen Z'rs:

The very same people that are about to have their student debt excused, makes me sick!
Wonder where all these students are getting their money to make these encampments?

These kids are disrespectful, but you can hardly blame them, we need to blame the universities and the parents that pushed them to go to indoctrination schools
This country is going down the flusher!
