Last week, Bolivians elected Luis Arce president, restoring MAS to power after a fascist coup. Today, Chileans voted to replace the undemocratic Pinochet constitution.

If hate comes to your campus:
1. Publicly & vocally oppose it
2. Demand your college denounce it
3. Organize your community against it
If hate comes to your campus:
1. Ignore the event
2. Ask your college to denounce
3. Talk to the group hosting

Biden said he wasn’t going to forgive loans because it benefits wealthy Ivy Leaguers. A group which represents .5% of students, many of whom didn't even have to take out loans.
He was either misinformed or lying, but either way he’s wrong.
It’s time to act, Joe.

Genocide Joe lies about the encampments protesting the US-Israel genocide of Palestinians. They are peaceful, disciplined, and orderly. It has been the police and Zionist counter-protestors causing violence and disorder.
Biden is now giving a completely one-sided, dishonest speech about these campus protests.
“Dissent must never lead to disorder.”
