This fight between two tribes over ancient mythology will never stop and should take place back in their respective shit holes, not in places trying to reduce ignorance in human society.
That's not what the student demonstrators are doing though. They're drawing attention to an ongoing genocide supported by their governments and their universities. They're working to reduce ignorance in human society by making sure we don't forget an ongoing crime against humanity, and highlighting how governments and universities in Canada collaborate with those perpetrating genocide. This is not a tribal matter. It's not taking sides for the sake of one "tribe" or another. This is basic concern for fellow human beings who are being tortured, starved and massacred.
To look at that and say "take it elsewhere; universities are for reducing ignorance but not about that" is to demand the ivory tower lock its doors to whatever goes on in wider society. It's unrealistic. Universities exist and operate in wider society and can influence society's ethical and intellectual standards. Students should demand better from their universities precisely because universities can set an example of rejecting comfortable ignorance for uncomfortable awareness. When they don't do that they end up co-opted by, and doing the bidding of, political power.
