Latest / Radio Baloney - The Richie Baloney Show! / WOKE Harvard Students Suffer 12 Hour Hunger Strike
Transcript
- 0:03We'll talk about dedication. Here's the headline, Harvard students accomplish grueling twelve hour
- 0:09hunger strike, And of course the Internet has something to say about this.
- 0:13But first I would like to personally congratulate these Harvard students. They finally decolonized
- 0:20lunch. So let's see what the Harvard Crimson has to say about this.
- 0:25More than thirty Harvard students hunger strike for twelve hours in solidarity with Brown protesters.
- 0:31It says more than thirty pro Palestinian Harvard students participated in a twelve hour
- 0:37hunger strike Friday in solidarity with seventeen students at Brown University who refuse to eat
- 0:43for eight days to pressure the Brown corporation to divest from Israel. So if
- 0:49the Brown University students refuse to eat for eight days, well that is impressive.
- 0:53Although you know, the left is redefining everything these days. When they
- 0:58say hunger strike, they might mean they don't eat until they get hungry.
- 1:02So I think what's really interesting about this is that anybody would think that a
- 1:06twelve hour hunger strike would influence anybody. I mean, it seems rather self
- 1:11centered to think that anybody would actually care about this, you know, sacrifice.
- 1:19Well, it says here that the seventeen Harvard students ended their strike at
- 1:22five pm. Well, of course they did, that's dinner time. But
- 1:26apparently, I mean, it wasn't just the twelve hour hunger strike. They
- 1:30also went twelve hours without reminding anybody to use their neo pronouns. Not once
- 1:34did they scream collectively that rice putting is genocide. Also, according to reports,
- 1:41all of them remained the same gender the entire twelve hours. That must
- 1:46have been tough, let's see. Oh, also it was at twelve hours
- 1:49without anybody saying Osama bin Laden had a point. And this one I think
- 1:53most important, probably the toughest one. No tiktoks. TikTok's about the hunger
- 2:01strike, which was actually about four thousand tiktoks. Well what is it say?
- 2:05In this Harvard Crimson article? It says the students intended to strike until
- 2:08the Brown Corporation considered a resolution to divest from quote companies which profit from human
- 2:15rights abuses in Palestine, but they ended the strike after Brown University president Christina
- 2:22H. Paxson denied their request. So what was more heroic? Storming the
- 2:28beaches at normandy or missing lunch. I don't know. I can't answer that
- 2:31question. That's a question for everybody to answer in their own hearts. So
- 2:36what did the internet have to say? Well, mostly peaceful memes said,
- 2:39damn, that's crazy. How'd they do it? They did it all by
- 2:44missing lunch. I mean if they ended the strike at five pm, just
- 2:46in time for dinner, that means they hadn't eaten since five am. And
- 2:52most of them were probably fat too. I hope they had ambulances on hand.
- 2:57Let's see, how about this one? Breaking thirty plus people will skip
- 3:00lunch? World changed experts say, how about this one? Were they awake
- 3:05the whole time? Or was it a sleepy time hunger strike? Yeah,
- 3:08thinking about it, probably most of them napped through it. This one said,
- 3:13turns out I hunger strike about three or four times a week. So
- 3:15there you have it. And I guess both Brown and Harvard and Israel they've
- 3:21learned their lesson for sure. Anyway, that's all I gotta say about that.
- 3:24Please like, share and subscribe. Sharing really helps me out. I
- 3:28thank you for that. I will see you next time.
