Yale Grad Students Go on ‘Symbolic’ Hunger Strike Where They’re Allowed to Eat
They’re already getting paid to be college students – at a rate roughly fifteen times what I made last year – full health bennies and paid-up tuition. They want better…I dunno, I didn’t really read the article. Apparently Yale told them – in a safe, tolerant and non-confrontational way, I’m sure – to pound sand. So the perpetual students decided to crank up the volume with a hunger strike.
Uh huh. Just one little problem. These aren’t exactly Cambodian monks we’re talking about here.
As it turns out, the hunger strike might not put anyone’s health in peril. According to a pamphlet posted on Twitter by a former Yale student, the hunger strike is “symbolic” and protesters can leave and get food when they can no longer go on.
Good luck with that, snowflakes.

It ain’t a hunger strike until you look like Mahatma Gandhi during one of his.
The sad thing is these little snowflakes don’t see any issue with their way of protesting. Judy is right if they’re gonna protest then they should protest otherwise what is the point?
The point, MJR, is that the Media will pretend as if they really ARE protesting via hunger strike. And any insinuation that they’re frauds and hypocrites will be castigated as Fake News.
I wouldn’t be so quick to make fun until you’re sure a fake hunger strike won’t end up with the administration folding and giving them what they want.
The bureaucrats are bigger snowflakes than the students. The kids can always go back to Daddy’s estate. Everyone in higher education at that level makes at least five times what their position should pay (generously stipulating that they actually provide a positive economic value).
Hence the terror whenever the SJW’s smell blood.
Mark Matis – I know, you’re right. The news media are so hungry for anything to fill the void they will even put this crap out there.
Ah, someone ought to fight fire with, well, cooked food, and just have people sit in front of them and eat sloppy, greasy food. Good burgers, bbq, fried fish (with or without vinegar).
Drive these people batshit crazier than they are.
And looks like some other people are as twisted upstairs as I am…

Andrew – Bacon – it will even weaken the resolve of the vegetable crowd.
Mmmm…. Bacon. Proof that God does exist… (just finished off my Sunday BLT fix an hour ago and the house is still full of that delicious bacon fragrance…)
