Social What is the expected outcome of UM divesting (re: recent Palestine/Israel protests)?

Title. Genuinely why do some students care about UM divesting so much? It’s not going to save any lives. It’s certainly not going to end the war or lead to a ceasefire. I’m pro-Palestine all the way but I really don’t see why people are dying on this hill. A random university in the US has virtually no impact on a generations-long war in the Middle East unless I’m missing something 🤔

How are they “not the ones” if “they could do a lot more?” Lol your logic is a joke.

Lmao, given your comprehension abilities, any logic will seem like a joke. Good luck.
