A cubic centimeter is ~150th of a modern nuclear weapon’s core. U-235 production accounts for every single gram, plutonium is even stricter.

It is an observation of historical facts, I am not prescribing any particular action.

Running in the woods and trying to wage a protracted people’s war against the local police didn’t put the nazis in their place either, so who exactly would I be calling to arms?

American asylums weren’t exactly shining beacons of human rights during that period either. JFK’s sister had her frontal lobe scraped until she could no longer repeat the lyrics of a song because she said problematic things as a woman.

To be clear, screaming on rooftops didn’t put the nazis in their place, communists with guns did.

The Young Turk movement started with medical students.

There were quite a few pro-segregation protests when schools were desegregated.

There’s also a lot of cases where students with real grievances and positive intentions are coopted; most of the students protesting in the early 90s in eastern europe didn’t intend to do a color revolution and have their countries stripped for parts.

Louis DeJoy (born 1956 or 1957[citation needed]) is an American businessman serving as the 75th U.S. postmaster general. He was appointed in May 2020 by the Board of Governors of the United States Postal Service (USPS). Prior to the appointment, he was the founder and CEO of the logistics and freight company New Breed Logistics and was a major Republican Party donor and fundraiser for Donald Trump.[1] DeJoy is the first postmaster general since 1992 without any previous experience in the USPS and the first postmaster general in U.S. history to come directly from the board of a privately owned competitor to the public–private partnership of the USPS entity.[2] His companies still hold active service contracts with the USPS, generating controversy over conflict of interest.[3]

Are you talking about campus police across all the universities?

Campus police, plus regular police brought in who usually charge the university. Common rates include ~100/hour for overtime, plus 100/cop/day for food, and other expenses like tiergas and cuffs.

These schools spent hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars to pay cops to kick the shit out of their own students, and they got defunded anyway.

That doesn’t always happen, look at the massacres in South Korea before the end of the dictatorship.

The numbers on wikipedia are lower than actual numbers as questioning them could literally get you executed until the 90s. For example the official number for the Gwangju uprising is 165, but the city recorded an extra 2300 deaths above historical averages for May. That doesn’t include thousands who were arrested, many of whom sentenced to death.

The government ordered the soldiers to shoot the protesters, and they did, and hardly anyone knows about it today.

Indonesia is also worth looking at.
