I have no clue what point you are trying to make.
Those "NY City Buildings" were what. What do you call them, exactly? Changing what they're called doesn't change what they are yet you want different rules. That's my point exactly and you've confirmed it.
The NY law, which has analogs everywhere no one had a problem with until it came up there, came up after a protest on Nov 19 (and May 5) at Park East __________.
Fill in that blank for me.
Careful arguing a carveout for what event is there, it won't work for mosques or islamic centers (or buddhist, christian, etc.) either. Surely you aren't arguing that the United States doesn't have enough Islamophobes to do some Westboro Church like shenanigans there, are you?
To be clear in case anyone else wants to do this rhetorical trick of playing innocent, the commenter above wants you to be able to protest outside of the religious buildings of only one religion. Apparently by just changing what they're called.
The interesting thing about going after DEI and protests so early in the move right wards, is these behaviors galvanize folks against the left. Four years is a long time for folks memory to fade, and if DEI and Protests aren’t happening as much, I think it warms people up to the return of left-wing governance.
If I was on the right and trying to maintain power. I would attack DEI while also finding ways to keep it in place structurally. Harvard as a perceived enemy promoting DEI is much more useful to the right than a Harvard that is perceived as politically neutral (to top it off, the underlying structural ideology is probably still in place, they just cut the head off)
But I think most voters hate violent protest. To try and get rid of it feels like a strategic misstep.
The bad faith goes deep when power is the goal.
"Today’s left-wing agitators deploy random acts of lawlessness designed to inconvenience and disrupt as many civilians as possible, hoping to pressure them to get the government to change course. This tactic is reasonably described as a form of terrorism, though the activists aren’t murderous like al-Qaida or Hamas—they don’t use guns, bombs, or threats of unpredictable bloodshed. Instead, they engage in civil terrorism."
