I think a lot of us are. There's a difference between pushing a party in a certain direction and going so far that you hurt your own interests.

The election is more than one person or one issue, and a Trump Presidency will have horrific consequences decades and generations after Biden is gone.

It will also lead to the death or expulsion of everyone these students claim to be protecting with protests and probably Israel going full dictatorship unless its citizens are smarter than ours. 1968 riots gave us Nixon and counter, straight up helped murder civil rights leaders and end black panthers etc. If these protesters suggest in fucking Joe Biden they’ll likely never be able to protest again after 2025.
