What's with the smooth brained take of some people here getting upset over a peaceful protest?Converse to that, What's with the smooth brained take of some people here getting upset over peoples opinion that a peaceful protest like this accomplishes nothing other that the protesters thinking they actually did something?

They have backbones, and you don't.You said that twice now.
Converse to thatOne side has people just being upset by others going basically "why bother they're not changing anything."
Im not upset at all.
I didnt even look into this enough to see what school this was at.
What I do know is that seeing this wouldnt change my opinion on anything that I currently believe in, even if I was the speaker they all walked out on.
One side has people just being upset by others going basically "why bother they're not changing anything."I cant speak for the guy that called them crybabies, because I didnt, and I dont think they are.
The other side(the one of the "why bother" opinion) has people calling the folks leaving "crybaby bitches" over a difference of opinion
Oddly, you don't seem to care about the latter.
Not everything is about you and no shit this isn't going to change Seinfeld's mind. You could have an hour heart to heart sitdown with Seinfeld and probably still not change his mind. They attended because it's their graduation and they walked about because they didn't want to listen to his shit, simple as that.
People hearing that 200ish people walked out on Seinfelds speech will change zero minds.
Heck, I wouldnt have even knew it had happened if I wasnt on CE.
Heck, I wouldnt have even knew it had happened if I wasnt on CE.Almost like it happening caused stories of it happening to exist, thereby spreading awareness. Now imagine if they took your method of "I should just deal with people of different opinions because leaving doesn't make it go away" and didn't decide to walk out.

You said that twice now.The point isn't to "accomplish" anything.
And Im really not trying to be combative, but
What do you honestly think this accomplished? Not all the protests, this specific one. Do you think this changes Seinfelds, anyone in the crowd, or any of the Duke decision makers minds at all?
And dont say it proves they have backbones. Theyre at graduation. The check cleared already. Whatever backbone you think they have has been bought.
This wasnt them booing and walking out on a politician, that may have some actual power to make a change, it was them walking out on a speech being made by some washed up comedian that hasnt really been relevant in 25 years.
so now you finally get it?Sure. Its all clear to me know.
Sure. Its all clear to me know.
Whatever those kids were trying to accomplish, they did.
Im now for, or against, whatever it was that they were trying to convince me to be for, or against.
The point isn't to "accomplish" anything.
The point is to stand up for what you believe in.
I.E. Having a backbone.
You clearly don't get that.

No I got it.
They have a backbone.
They walked away from a speaker whos appearance fee was paid for by their tuition fees.
You've proven your ignorance, been called out for it, and are now throwing a salty tantrum.Nah. Just standing up for what I believe in.
Nah. Just standing up for what I believe in.And that is?
Jerry: "They walked out on my speech!"
George: "walked out on your speech!?"
Jerry: "right out!"
Seems pretty rude. In the real world you're going to have to work with people you disagree with. You can't just walk out of a job.I'm quite sure your not qualified to talk about what someone is able to do at a job.
I mean, your shitposting accomplishes nothing and yet here we are.
And that is?Having a backbone?
Lol, homeslice just admitted he's only in here to troll. That's a good time to disregard anything else.Boy, they sure showed us

I think people realised that it was the other actors and writers that were much funnier.
Jerry sienfeld falling out of favor with the newer generation has been interesting to watchin real time. Itd the complete opposite of how he was recieved by a similar demographic 30 years agoWhen Seinfeld aired, CW didn't even exist. Neither did FX, plus HBO quit making original programming until around when Seinfeld ended.
Seems pretty rude. In the real world you're going to have to work with people you disagree with. You can't just walk out of a job.This wasnt a job. They arent working with him. What the hell are you talking about?
plus HBO quit making original programming until around when Seinfeld ended.Except no
I just think this specific protest, not all, just this specific one, will accomplish little.this applies to just about every individual protest outside of like, the salt march
Seems pretty rude. In the real world you're going to have to work with people you disagree with. You can't just walk out of a job.Didn't you say you were going to not talk about politics? I feel like you should probably stick to that plan.
Except noYou're wrong.
Dream On, Mr. Show, Kids in the Hall, Tales from the Crypt, etc
You're wrong.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HBO_original_programming
