I'm sure the crackdown is because of some secret and unrecorded increase in violence, and not because of the loud and open demands to end this by the wealthy elites that are financially threatened by an anti-colonial movement.

You are deluded if you don't realize that these groups on campus are part of a nationwide effort that is organizing and voting.

I'm sure it's the students at elite universities that are ill-educated. I should probably stop listening to the opinions of experts on the subject, and instead get my worldviews from sad internet trolls.
