I can't wait for them to get 10 years older and realize that nothing they do or say will ever change anything.

I feel for the kids who applied to Columbia and were rejected so that these kids could come instead. Frustrating to see them trash the opportunity.

I wish these kids would use this energy to protest domestic issues like inflation, homeland security, the fact that they will never be able to afford a home and the American dream is dead. Wake up kids

As a former 90s secular socialist, kinda horrified to see people claiming to be socialists (but are really progressives, different ideology) shout religious sloguns, from a 7th century slave empire 👻👻👻

🤔🤔👶🏻🥵🤒🤒🙏🏻 : What does criminal action means, Mr/Miss ?. What does the description of the money politics, Mr/Miss ?. What is the penalty for someone who is criminal action?. And the last my question is "Can the ceasefire be achieved when there is still acceptance of military assistance to the country involved in the war, Mr/Miss ? I'm sorry if my statement (my question) is wrong 🙏🏻
