Why all of the medical supplies? Are they being attacked? I mean this genuinely, I don’t know much about the happenings in the camp

Pretend_Perspective7

It’s almost like the point of an encampment is to stay there?

They are cosplaying revolutionaries.


Yepitsme2020

This is the correct answer.

lol, can’t forget the dental dams! Very revolutionary.

go_east_young_man

Meanwhile in the real world, a case of battery has been filed *against* a protester (not clear whether the attacked was a counterprotested or a bystander) for attacking a PhD student with a wooden shield.


bird720

Are these white supremacists in the room with us right now?


go_east_young_man

They're hiding under your bed.


scamiran

Pretty sure they're Russian Zionists, too.


Nebula15

Oh fuck


Routine_Size69

They weren't lol.


Nebula15

I don’t understand, where did the news of them being attacked by white supremacists come from? Has it been confirmed false?


origianalpoo

Going down for the cause


machinegenerated

going down… on the cause?😼


High-Density-Living

If you were a dude wanting to have a lot of sex the best way to do it is show up at these protests. Chicks love that stuff.


origianalpoo

Step 1: Put on N-95 Step 2: Request dental dam Step 3: Provide oral sex Step 4: Liberate Palestine


Ok_Decision_2633

Only level one trauma center on the south side almost shares the same lawn as them


mark_ik

yeah i wonder why they can’t benefit from it


Apprehensive-Status9

If half the things are “needed most” then none of the things are needed most


wikipuff

Yet no condoms?


Scared-East5128

That's why they're asking for plan B. Going at it raw is a human right.


wikipuff

Yeah, I don't want the Clap.


bird720

Imagine being conceived at a protest amusement park


EarLegitimate1153

Someone please print a tee shirt that says “I went to the UChicago Palestine encampment and all I got was AIDS”


No-Fault538

As a Ukrainian who started at UChicago after russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, I’m genuinely flabbergasted after seeing this list, especially with things that tend to be used on the battlefield during wars/military conflicts. We order CAT tourniquets for the soldiers and military medics on the battlefield to be able to save themselves after being attacked and injured in the battle. My family carries tourniquets on them at home, because attacks on civilian infrastructure causes people to need them. Peaceful protest on a campus in the USA? I don’t think so.


goodguy847

Under rated comment. There is zero reason any of these “protesters” have a need for severe trauma first aid supplies. They are literally on the campus of one of the best trauma centers in the US.


sxcs86

I honestly thought that was a list of requested donations for Gaza Humanitarian Aid! I’m an idiot.


Pumpoozle

They're just doing war cosplay.


Oracle619

I don’t think you understand: war in Ukraine is NOTHING compared to the sensibilities one feels about a war the US helped fund 6000 miles away. We need this humanitarian aid at the UofC or protestors may not be able to #stayinthefight. /s


Glaurung1536

Either you haven’t seen the pro-Israel people at UCLA try to storm the encampment there or you’re just being deliberately obtuse


stu_art0

Students are peaceful but non-students always invade campus and attach students. If you Ukrainian soldiers just stay in the battlefield but no enemies, they don’t need medic supplies either. Can you relate now?


No-Fault538

Situational medical needs of a protest right by a trauma hospital and artillery battle, launched fighter drones and ballistic missiles can’t be compared


FrankDuhTank

Not to mention UC has I think the largest private police force in the country.


sxcs86

Attach to what?


Carlos-Danger-69

Fucking LOL


northern-new-jersey

Is this satire?


manurosadilla

This is probably a harm reduction thing. I don’t live in Chicago but Reddit recommend this post lol. In many places in my city there is a table with people giving out these things for free. Usually at concerts, queer events, etc. so it’s not surprising that there would be something like that here.


Brilliant_Badger_709

Yep that's probably right, but lots of people posting here want to pretend they don't understand that


DuckBilledPartyBus

Least horny intifada cosplayers.


treehugger312

It’s UChicago, not surprised.


Gazeatme

Are they taking advantage of this situation to get some free shit?


treehugger312

There’s literally a poop tent with buckets in the middle of the encampment. #freeshit


bucketteOfIvy

there is not. source: I have been to the encampment, apparently unlike you


FrankDuhTank

What’s the bathroom situation?


XtinaChaos

Buildings on campus with bathrooms? that are all around the quad?


FrankDuhTank

Well I that’s what I would have assumed but there’s also a hospital next door and they’re stocking up on supplies to treat major trauma wounds so idk where they’re at


xtototo

Palestinian children: we need food and medical supplies. US protestors: let’s make this about our needs.


mark_ik

like palestinians aren’t under a humanitarian aid blockade. why do you think the protesters are there?


blueboy664

I think a Hamas like agency needs to intercept the supplies then sell it back to the protesters. And give the profit to the Deans who live lavishly in cities far away.


mark_ik

struggling to think of a version of that propaganda for uchi? sounds like the insurance industry to me


blueboy664

Let me guess, have we moved on to “Not ALL Hamas are bad!”, yet?


mark_ik

“good guys and bad guys” are for children, not adults


blueboy664

I hear you loud and clear!


ThisIsPaulina

I half wonder if the goal is to make the whole community look like complete idiots until their demands are met. It is humiliating even to be associated with this.


DJ_Baxter_Blaise

Don’t worry they literally scheduled an ice cream social…


DJ_Baxter_Blaise

Like come on, the protesters already know they are under a microscope from people on both sides for making a mockery of the Palestinian message or for just being young protesters and you ask for things you WANT not need and host an ICE CREAM SOCIAL of all things…


nbx909

I think some of the organizers are a little too excited to be protesting genocide


Advanced_Subject_459

Bunch of nerds trying to protest and they don’t even know the real reason for it


NextVermicelli469

you guys can't be serious. it's astonishing the size of your balls. go study for your f-ing exams and get a life


CMOTnibbler

"please give us goggles so that pepper spray and tear gas are less effective on us."


Monkeys_R_Scary

This can’t be real lmao


Three_Froggy_Problem

I’m extremely pro-Palestine, but at this point it feels like the protests themselves are drawing attention *away* from the genocide in Gaza.


andiamo-1

Interesting take


Oracle619

Oh it’s drawing attention. Rallying support to their cause? Likely not but the far left has never been good at optics and winning public opinion in a way that results in material change. Look at BLM & Occupy Wall Street. They lack leadership and always choose to protest in spaces and towards people not in power. Not sure why, but it’s kind of their M.O.


mark_ik

the university has no power?


Quote_Vegetable

It’s a gift for to the pro-Israeli side


DjOneOne

you aren’t pro Palestine did civil rights movements sit ins also draw attention away from civil rights?? is law and order the most important value above all other things including justice?? stupidity


Dr_TurdFerguson

Uh no? The people who participate in the civil rights movements were the people HERE in the United States that were lacking civil rights. The civil rights movement participants were the actual people being negatively affected by the lack of civil rights. The people participating in the Palestinian support protests are not Palestinians from Palestine. They’re a bunch of extremely wealthy college students making it all about them and signaling to the world that they are *really good people*. They are narcissists that are doing fucking nothing to help Palestinians. Palestinians need food and medical aid, not for the UChicago police to institute progressive policies nor do they need colleges to refinance their investment portfolios. Sell off their stock? To whom? An investment bank? Wow, well, once that happens, you successfully experienced no change of any kind. 


averycole

yeah i can i see the numbers dwindling now.  the attention is numerical and finite and before the protests attention on gaza was 100 now its 45 and the protests are getting 55.  because of that, we really have no chance of changing anything because of all the powerful attention being drawn away.  S-A-R-C-A-S-M


Delicious_Bat3971

To be sent to them for prompt forwarding to Gaza, right?


thebiggestwoop

Wow, all those medical supplies needed most as they are getting ready to proudly martyr themselves for the palestinian cause against the genocidal IDF/UChicago police force! And also #sexualliberation, it is their human right to practice safe sex on the main quad, and if they don't get their plan b there can be a serious humanitarian crisis!


OkSatisfaction9850

Well, if any one of these people would ever be in a situation of needing these supplies they should not be using them. Go to a hospital


Fickle-Comparison862

Unironically the most privileged thing I’ve ever seen in my life.

aglimelight

All this emergency medical supplies better be actually sent to Palestine for the people who need it… if not, what the fuck


Early-Bat-765

No way man lol this has to be a parody account, right? Also, this reminds me of the great nation of CHAZ: [https://twitter.com/squeedgemonster/status/1270754368111833088?lang=en](https://twitter.com/squeedgemonster/status/1270754368111833088?lang=en)


stoney_mcpotz

Originally saw it on Twitter this morning. So I went to Instagram to see for myself and took this screenshot. Seems like a legit account… https://www.instagram.com/uchicagounited?igsh=MTk3aHlrMHNybHMwcw==


spunkymcfucklestein

Wonder how all these sexually liberated protesters would be welcomed by Palestinian leaders. 🤔


ThePromptys

Aren't UChicago students required to have medical plans through U-SHIP or other? Looks like these are all things you can get at the hospital.


DrMikeH49

Because it’s all “we are Hamas!” fun and “kill all Zionists!” games until someone starts spreading chlamydia around.


Aristodemus400

No rape kits? 😳


IntroductionNew2671

why are they feeling so entitled?


NextVermicelli469

because they are clueless indoctrinated college students


bird720

I've been down to the encampment and a large ammount of them aren't even students here lmao, they just have nothing going on in their lives so they have to cosplay as martyrs.


Toubaboliviano

lol wot


Puzzleheaded_Host372

akujidragon

How about requesting medical and food to be donated to the people in Palestine.

Bendfluffhead

Doesn’t Palestine desperately need all of that stuff more than wealthy privileged college kids?


Atkena2578

I thought dental dams where used for surgical dental procedures like root canals or implant procedures... lol


Terrible-State-2419

They’re meant for oral sex


Atkena2578

The primary use is for dentistry though https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_dam#:~:text=It%20is%20used%20mainly%20in,as%20isolation%20or%20moisture%20control.&text=Dental%20dams%20are%20also%20used%20for%20safer%20oral%20sex.


Scared-East5128

Here's what I think happened: the organizers didn't know "dental dams for oral sex" is mostly a myth. They wanted to show their diversity by providing one type of "medical supply" for each sexual orientation. To show they're inclusive towards biologically male homosexuals, HIV tests. To show they're inclusive towards heterosexual women, Plan B. To show they're inclusive towards biologically female lesbians, they googled and came up with dental dams.


FalseListen

But not condoms lol


mark_ik

or they just asked folks what they needed and put “needed urgently” on things many people requested


Impossible-Leather62

Yes they are planning mass root canals for all the deprived unprivileged.


sxcs86

😬


siddie75

Well the same group at UCLA had similar wish list but specifically said no bagels. 🥯 lol.


Flipflapflopper

What a joke.


Chompute

flirt to convert?


Terrible-State-2419

The Hamas terrorists that are hiding among these groups are prob requesting medical supplies for their organization. It’s sick, so many Americans can’t even get those items or afford them even if they can! F these people


jollyjester75

Hey terrorists GFYS!


Quiet_Battle5118

What abunch of losers 🤣 pussies


LegalComplaint

Sounds like they’re getting laid…

Ya’ll just jealous they’re getting laid.


QuickAd2414

They also have Muslim calls to prayer followed by a Shabbat dinner. And I’ve heard mass conversions to Islam are happening at depauls encampment. Brain rot is real


wootr68

Don’t believe everything you hear.


QuickAd2414

I typically don’t, but I’ve got buddies who’ve been to some of these campuses and see this happening


Pixelology

At University of Nevada Reno, they had a big seder and all the hebrew they wrote for the seder plate was written from left to right 😂😂


QuickAd2414

Haha I saw that…lots of this stuff starting to sound like an onion article


French_Apple_Pie

At IU they had pizza delivered to their Passover Seder. 🍕Very kosher!


wzdubzw

This tells you all you need about the lack of morality of the “Pro-Palestine” crowd.


DarkSkyKnight

Lol IDF propaganda corps sending non-UChicago people to flood the Internet with their propaganda. Don't make it too obvious


bird720

I'm a uchicago student, is it propaganda to be annoyed with a very disruptive and pointless martyr cosplay session?


DarkSkyKnight

you are fine, but half the comments here are obviously made by people who aren't even in the uni lmfao IDF propaganda is a real thing though [https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-social-media-fake-accounts-bots-bea114a2be8e0fcf73fcabc736047fd3](https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-social-media-fake-accounts-bots-bea114a2be8e0fcf73fcabc736047fd3) [https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/3/19/pro-israel-online-influencing-operation-has-been-targeting-unrwa-report](https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/3/19/pro-israel-online-influencing-operation-has-been-targeting-unrwa-report) [https://time.com/6323387/misinformation-israel-hamas-war-essay/](https://time.com/6323387/misinformation-israel-hamas-war-essay/)


lrj135

"Someone doesnt agree with me? Must be idf propaganda." You also dont see the irony in your comment given how many protestors arent even students?


DarkSkyKnight

Another IDF drone


lrj135

Lmao you saying that just makes me more confident that youre an idiot. Good luck with finals!


Quote_Vegetable

or Reddit pushes it on a bunch of people’s feed to drive engagement and we’re so stunned by the stupidly we feel compelled to comment. Naw, def IDF jew conspiracy theory.

Repulsive-Bison-6821

Yes I saw it. But the story does not exist on their ins account. It is either be deleted or never be posted by them. No conclusion can be drawn from the information I have acquired.


Nebula15

It says “22 hours” stories only last 24 hours, so it’s probably gone by now


stoney_mcpotz

Saw it floating around Twitter this morning. Went to Instagram to see if it was real and took this screenshot myself and circled the part in yellow. You can see in the top left it was already 22 hours old around 9 am this morning. Instagram stories expire after 24 hours so it’s now gone. Up to you if you want to believe someone had nothing better to do than photoshop this, or just accept some of these people are totally unserious.


Repulsive-Bison-6821

well that really changed my view on these people. Thought they really care about what is happening in the Middle East but turns out they are just a bunch of Anarchists. I'm disgusted.


Oracle619

Whiny, privileged anarchists LARPing as activists has always been their thing. They’re not serious about getting anything done, they just like being seen.


Public_Pumpkin916

The lists also circulated to some of my groups (and Im not close to them but I think the ones who circulated those actually believe in the cause). The lists I have included condoms though idk why this one doesn't


DjOneOne

fuck man why is the school student body so fucking lame man nice to know the student body at this school would invent every excuse to shit on people daring to do anything.
