Columbia University has fallen

  I just had a thought.  I cannot speak to non-USA protests.  
But I do believe many of these "protesters"  are either joiners-on from social media, or paid provocateurs and/or antifa.
Much like the warm months leading to the 2020 POTUS election, this may be the civil unrest of this Election Cycle.
 

many of the protesters due in fact seem to be just people that are scared or outraged about other things and are joining in. There have been reports (posted here I believe, if not I'll go find some) that only a few of the people are really there for the reasons being stated, but many more are being funded through NGOs and "out reach groups".

I also believe that all this isn't really about the Hamas/Israeli Conflict, but is more about priming the fires for a non-Trotskyist win in November. Biden is going to push these protests to the breaking point as a way of keeping Hunter's Criminal Trials out of the media (good luck with that now that he wants to sue FOX News), as well as scare voters into "doing what he wants". 

My big hope is that just as we saw in the Covid lockdowns, people will just get burned out from these protests and ignore them leading up to the election. 

As for non-American riots and Protests, I wonder if those are about limiting economic recovery on a global scale?
