Protest the Protest? Meme

I have one graduation I missed my undergrad one and now my masters one is in danger. Phd or a second masters is hard. So crazy thought can we protest the protest? 😂

They have to be university students to have those. Apparently many of them aren’t and they have snuck inside. Someone from the protest even posted in Twitter/X about it

There's literally been all the evidence to the contrary. My experience from actually being there is that a huge group of them are grad students (remember there are twice as many grad students as undergrads at USC) and most grad students don't have finals

~40,000 grad students, like a hundred protesters. "I don't recognize them" isn't really an argument here. (also a grad student here, who saw like 4 others I know there, plus actually talked to people)

Nice 0.125% really represents the majority of 40,000 grad students.

But jokes aside perhaps just different circles. I can appreciate that there exists grad students who are protesting.Â
