The all-purpose Columbia University hunger strike
You can never really have a moonbat convergence focused on just one issue or objective. Organize a protest against the war in Iraq–and you’ll get Mumia abu Jamal worshipers, Truthers, Darfur saviors, and open-borders reconquistadores. Intellectual incoherence starts early. Check out the hunger strike now under way at Columbia University.
Five students are foregoing nourishment and camping on the south lawn of the main Morningside Heights campus. Ostensibly, it’s in response to the unsolved mystery of the noose-hanging at the university’s teachers’ college nearly a month ago. Never mind that the investigation is still underway and no suspects have been named. They’ve larded up their grievances with complaints about a campus expansion plan, Lee Bollinger’s treatment of Iranian nutjob Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, and a push for more funding of pet p.c. departments.
The presumption of white guilt infuses the hunger strikers’ demands :
We demand a Core Curriculum that is inclusive not only of the canon of Western European thought, but that seeks to build a deep understanding of the multicultural society that we live in and the power relations that constitute it.
We demand a sustainable expansion that does not displace 5,000 people and bulldoze a neighborhood in Harlem, one of the most important communities in the United States.
We demand an administration that is responsive to institutional racism, supports its students, and proactively works to create a climate in which nooses and swastikas are not the order of the day.
We demand support and autonomy for the Ethnic Studies program, which is crucial to a critical intellectual experience in a progressive university.
Until now, our demands have been ignored. Now we strike. Students are launching a HUNGER STRIKE to transform our university. We need YOU to make this a success.
If nothing else, parents paying exorbitant amounts of money to send their kids to Columbia can rest assured they are being taught well the rhetoric of entitlement and self-absorption:
From the center of Butler Lawn. Day one gone. The evening of day two is approaching. The hunger strikers have slept their first night, outside and subsisting solely on water, electrolytes and the love of friends and adherents to the demands. We have had a number of questions over the past two days, and we write this letter to begin to answer some of those questions, and continue the conversation around these issues.
The question that most frequently arises is, “How are you feeling?” All of us are in different states but on the whole, there are the hunger pains, a slight light headedness and fatigue. All of us however are out and about, attending our classes and taking exams, talking with those who approach our tent. Also interacting with those who last night attended the first of the nightly vigils in support. Today again there was a rally at the sundial, and statements were shared in solidarity. These showings have been crucial for the other thing we are feeling is the cold of being outside, and it is the growing strength of the movement that keeps us warm.
Another question we often get is, “What do you need?” So many have kindly offered blankets, sleeping bags, tea and other material needs. We have appreciated every offer, and feel that our material needs are being well looked to. One level of support that can be extended is providing inspiration for us to continue – think art, music, good conversation, does anyone have a boombox?
Does anyone have a boombox?
It’s the new “Don’t Tase Me, Bro!”
***Update: Stealing this from commenter Delosworld…New Columbia moonbat rallying cry: “Don’t Feed Me, Bro!”***
More:
Because our cause is multi-faceted, our demands call for change on all levels and ask for a spectrum of responsibility:
• a more systematic response to hate crimes from Public Safety
• a more collaborative expansion effort from the administration
• a revision of the Core that encourages critical engagement with issues of racism and colonialism
• more resources and support for the Center for the Study of Ethnicity and Race (CSER), the Institute for Research in African-American Studies (IRAAS), and the Office of Multicultural Affairs (OMA).
Gimme, gimme, gimme.
The editorial board of the Columbia Spectator student publication attempts to distance itself from the desperate, unfocused grievance-mongers, but concludes that the administration should capitulate anyway:
…the broadness and impracticality of some of the strike’s demands do not give the University a free pass to ignore the issues at hand. In particular, Columbia should consider reforming the major cultures requirement by including a course in a seminar format that focuses on the issues of racialization and colonialism. Such a change ought to be accompanied by overall reforms to the Core Curriculum to make it more inclusive and representative of “non-Western” viewpoints. Likewise, the Office of Multicultural Affairs is severely understaffed—something the University should acknowledge and make moves towards addressing. Most importantly, Columbia should recognize that a decision to stop eating is a desperate act. It must work with the strikers to give students voices enough weight that future generations of Columbians don’t feel they have to stop eating to be heard.
Parting words via the NYSun tell you all you need to know about these melodramatic publicity-seekers:
Two sophomores at Barnard College and three Columbia students last ate Tuesday evening and said they would not break their fast until the school committed to a core curriculum that includes a seminar addressing issues of “racialization and colonialism,” among their other demands.
“I’m already hungry,” a senior at Columbia, Bryan Mercer, 22, said yesterday, less than 24 hours into the strike.
Oh, not to worry. If this hunger strike is anything like Cindy Sheehan’s last fast, they’ll all be gaining weight.

Twenty bucks to the first person to send me a picture of themselves eating a huge sandwich/pizza/delicious food infront of these kids.
Oh, pray for enlightenment for by forsaking the processed pudding and hydrogenated fats & oil and food stuffs of BIG UNIVERSITY we shall rise to a new level of consciousness and proceed as one with an open-mined conservative belief.
Somebody send Cindy Sheehan to show those college kids the correct way to hunger strike.
To far away smj or I’d BBQ an entire side of beef nearby.
swj, sorry.
That’s great, swj. Only wish I was in New York – I’d take you up on that offer.
One can only wonder if this will be like Cindy Sheehan’s “fast” – the one that allows the faster to drink milkshakes and eat ice cream.
If I were in NY, I wouldn’t be able to resist the urge to have a couple of pizzas sent over there.
These are spoiled little brats. Even though their parents are paying out the wazu for their tuition, the parents who couldn’t say no to their kids would probably demand the school capitulate if they could.
We have a society of children who have never heard the word, NO. Their parents didn’t want to damage their fragile psyche, my sister has four of these and one is now at Boston University. Let us see if these kids hear the word NO for the first time in their lives.
Yeah, and I’ll bet some of them are cheating when it comes to eating, too. If they make it one more day with out food I’ll be greatly surprised.
Forecast for tonight and tomorrow for NYC is rain. Will the “growing strength of the movement” keep them dry, too?
See the link to our Moonbat Fast vent in the last line of my post.
There is no way that a university will actually study all the cultures existing at Columbia. They only study American culture, in order to condemn it. I defy them to name one class that analyzes any culture except Western culture. It doesn’t exist.
As for studying racialization and colonialism, will we then study Muslim colonization of Africa, for instance? Will we study separatist enclaves of immigrants within America? Will we study the gang war between the Latinos and African Americans in poor neighborhoods?
Pigs will fly first.
Let’s hope these fine people make it past Thanksgiving – a holiday which I’m sure they would never celebrate anyway.
Somebody get me a cheeseburger!
“Don’t Feed Me, Bro!”
Once upon a time (in the olden days -anyone remember them?) people went to college to learn something useful. Now people go to college to learn stupid.
I’m not so sure we shouldn’t take a page from their playbook though. A hunger strike to close our border and deport illegals…hmmmmmmmm…
I mean, nothing else is working, what’s to lose?
Alright, everyone, lets go sit and watch them. I’ll bring the charcol grill and hamburgers. Now, who’ll bring the potatoe salad, and who’ll bring the hot dogs?
These kids need to stop whining and learn some marketable skills. They have to pay for my Social Security.
I think they all need to eat some humble pie.
I think what the “students” really meant to write was something like this
We demand….. because we are failing at life and have nothing better to do. We have no idea how to accomplish anything on our own so we are demanding that if we pitch a tantrum, you will do something. We have no idea how the real world works, how invention and innovation happen, how great ideas get implemented. We are losers, hear us roar.
The best thing about hunger strikes is that they resolve themselves if ignored.
Perhaps the boombox is needed to hold a proper Obama rally. As the AP reported from Iowa on Wednesday, “While waiting (for Obama), the crowd took to dancing and chanting.”
this just kills me. last year i decided to do a week long fast to see if i could. yup i could no problems, after 3 days the hunger fades. It really irritates me when people are always acting like not eating for a few days is as painful as death or some such thing. 7 days i went and would consider having a hunger strikeathon with the liberals as they always seem to break them rapidly… idiots. I cant stand how much indoctrination my university tried when i was getting my degree. It’s sad to see how many people believe it with no questions asked. I feel like half my money was wasted by people trying to convince me that i was a hate mongering fool because i was a republican.
So?
lol. i’m going to put that on a t-shirt.
lol delos….
What clowns.
I have so tired of phonies like these over the past few decades.
Hunger fast, indeed.
My first impulse is to wish them the best of luck to a successful conclusion.
It sounds like these idiots can’t afford a hunger strike. If one more brain cell goes, they will be done for.
Nooooooo! not on a tee shirt! somehow I think I would end up owning one….
#17 jsr:
“I think they all need to eat some humble pie.”
They were actually a good band from the late 60s-early 70s.
And, yes, I agree with you!
I would love to consume a couple In-&-Out double doubles in front of these idiots. One of the culinary delights I miss from my days stationed at Travis AFB. Damn I just made myself very hungry!
Michelle, I know a guy who can get a great deal on shirt printings…
Let’s see, a hunger strike called just before Thanksgiving “vacation”, with finals impending during the next 30 days or so.
Will they survive until Turkey day? Are they putting their “academic” careers at stake?
Prediction: the “hunger strikers” will use the “sacrifices” they are making to whip up “concern” by Student Affairs administrators at Columbia about their “safety” and “well-being”.
They’ll be nannied to death.
Oh! The horrors of being at a place where nooses and swastikas are the order of the day.
Fasting is an ineffectual way to bring about “change” at a University.
Plus, I doubt any of them will go as far as this brave young woman did in Vermont back in the nineties.
Google: Maneshkona
5 miles from here boomer, want I should send ya one?
“thats what a hamburgers all about”
Once again it’s SOMEONE ELSE’S responsibility to change something (anything…..everything?) If they really cared about doing something, and in this case, no, no I don’t, then they would expend their energy trying to make a difference and not by simply refusing to eat.
Hungar strikes are about the most LAZY form of protest ever. “I refuse to take care of myself until you bend over backwards to GIVE ME what I WANT.” Whatever. What a bunch of babies.
Colonialism, racism, sustainable, hate crime…
Do they teach these little knuckleheads anything but buzzwords?
Moonbattery, The new way to lose the freshman 15….
We had something like this at Tulane a few years back to bring awareness to the homeless. Needless to say, the protestors would go in their dorms for showers and when it finally rained, they packed up and went inside.
I feel like I am on an endangered species list. Act now or teh blacks will die off…
This temper tantrum, err – fast is funnier than the code pinkos waterboarding one of their own.
#12 – magnificient!
I heard the have a pitcher full of bear mush stashed away.
ajmontana that would be sweet!
why dont they just go read a book and eat a pizza? if their looking for a degree in this field change Universities, I’m sure it’s offered elsewhere.
LOL, that parallels my first thought on the topic: the Romans roasting large quantities of meat upwind from the city during the siege of Jerusalem, specifically to demoralize the defenders.
If it weren’t illegal, I’d express my “solidarity” with these perma-adolescents by sending them some dope – aside from saving them some of their own unearned money by eliminating the need to go get it themselves, it’s perfectly in keeping with their self-absorption fast by being calorie-free, fat-free, and sugar-free – just hope ya don’t get the munchies…
As Michael Savage would say, let them starve to death!
I also got to thinking about the benefits for Mother Earth. You know the globe is overpopulated and the co2 they would not be using up might assuage part of the giant co2 foot print of brother Al.
Just thinking.
This would all stop in a hurry if the parents said, “Fine, but you’ll have to start paying your own tuition.” Nothing like a job to bring a little clarity…
PS – can order pizza on-line from anywhere and have it delivered…
I’m confused. Are they showing solidarity with the oppressed or are they showing solidarity with those showing solidarity with the oppressed?
aloha, being a college campus I’m bettin someone has sent them some… lol
Aloha, you are brilliant…
Someone wanna give me the address/location these nitwits are at?
And I need someone to take pics when it arrives.
Well, I’m glad to see they’re still going to classes. I’d hate for their parent’s 100 bucks per lecture hour go to waste. *rolls eyes*
I remember in high school when my youth group took part in the 30 Hour Famine sponsered by World Vision. We committed to fast for thirty hours and collected sponsers who would send a certain amount of money to World Vision for every hour we fasted. We weren’t fasting to end world hunger; we were fasting to get money so that an organization which was actually doing something about the problem would have more support.
What makes them think that the administrators are going to pay any attention to their demands? Why is a hunger strike necessary when they have legitimate ways of addressing the authorities in the university, such as student council?
I’m sorry, was I applying logic to the students of one of our most prestigeous universities? Is that not allowed anymore?
I’m guessing this hunger strike protest shouldn’t last longer then 6 or 7 days….after that, it’ll be a moot point! I’m willing to send some money to help bury these silly little children after they starve to death for NO EFFING REASON. The way I look at it, there will be five less liberal voters…and these libs are so stupid, the others even notice…
It’s a cause. Causes are good. You should support our cause because causes are good. Logic need not apply.
aJ: they can’t handle “da mush”.
this strategy is as tired as Code Pink’s “blood on the hands” war criminal allegations.
back in the 90s I was involved as an administrator with this kind of stuff. When it is all said and done, the University will say- “Okay. Uncle. Let’s form a blue ribbon Commission to ’study’ the problem so we can bring the full measure of University resources to bear on it…. (audience goes into rem sleep coma sheeeeeBeeeeeBeeeBee!)
The Commission gets formed (takes the rest of the school year) and meets “informally” over the summer, reconvenes next fall (after the original mob graduates), and orders lunch for everybody as they “share their stories” and “wrestle with the tough issues”, involve a few “blacks”, stack the committee with Asian American students “who are doing so well”, bring in a couple of beret wearing Puerto Ricans who want to include the “liberation” of PR in the “Working document”, and some red-hot angry Latinos from “da hood” who want to incorporate their rap groove into the mainstream curriculum model, and some “Native” students who want Manhattan back.
Then there will be an onslaught of spending to bring Noam Chomsky to campus, and have Dennis Kucinich speak at graduation from the deck of his space ship.
The Commish will author a “Working Document” for “dissemination” to the “faculty” for review and ultimate condemnation because the curriculum is under the purview of the tenured in each respective college. (Death knell.)
School ends again. More students graduate or leave. New students come on the scene and say the same things the hunger strikers say. The President says “We would love to have you on our Commission. You get lunch if you come to the meetings. We have cookies too.”
And on and on it goes. The 70s, 80s, 90s, and now the big Zip 00’s.
Raises awareness.
More parsley anyone?
Pukes.
Agree with #42. Let them starve to death. But make sure and tell them that when they do, we’ll make Soylent Green out of them and have a big bar-b-que at Dick Cheney’s place. Consumed by Cheney and increasing their carbon footprint: that’ll get them off the picket lines in a hurry.
Rats, Michelle took m,y statement. i was going to recommend someone go out to Jamba Juice, or maybe a Ben and Jerrys and then swing into a Starbucks.
But one need not worry about these martyrs. Even though they were only less than 24 hours into it, claiming all to be light headed etc., (Man, they just can’t stop whining. It must be rough up on that cross) as we all should remember, starvation is nothing to worry about.
If you think back to Schiavo and the argument that the Libs made in letting her take two weeks to slowly starve to death, starving is a peaceful, nearly euphoric thing. There is no pain, despite these whiney little toad’s complaints to the contrary. It will bring them peace and comfort.
Why, I may just start to starve myself too. The way they described it, it may just be better than sex.
So fear not for these brave, brave souls. Look what it did for the Code Pinkos…they look faboo.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. You’re hilarious, MM.
I’m not eating another bite of food until another live HotAir TV comes on. Who’s with me.
I’m holding out for MKH…
Order the Pizzas. Put them on a huge catapult and hurl them into their midst.
Call it humanitarian aid to the hunger strikers.
Air drop “Jenny Craig” pamphlets. (Some of them will actually comment when it is over that they lost weight, so at least something good came of their failed effort.)
bear1909, is a hoot!
Cesar Chavez used the hunger strike. But he had some impeccable moral fortitude- as well as testicular.
What do these Columbia BoBo BSers got?
I got your support staff “rat heeya”.
Somebody videotape and interview these thumbsuckers and then count how many times they say “Um” “like” and “Yeah, like”, “Um, I was like, yeah”
Just shoot me.
Hey, I’m in Brooklyn and my sister lives near Columbia. Would I really get twenty bucks to eat pizza in front of them??? ;0)
eclectic, no, you’d get fourty.
I’m upping the ante.
“Faux News Alert”
Rosie O’ to go on Columbia University Nit-Wit diet!!
Sources close (well as close as you can get) quoted the big Ro as saying
“I want in on some of the free Pizza.”
film at 11:00
lol. Only if there’s pictures. It would have to have “the smell of food”, since smell is very powerful with regards to human hunger (ever not been hungry, then smelled something, then been starving?).
I wanna see them squirm…
Can someone please tell me one single time,, outside of MAYBE Gandhi’s, when a person on a hunger strike actually had what they were striking against change as a direct result of their hunger strike?
I, for the life of me, cannot think of a single, solitary time. Even Gandhi’s didn’t actually change anything. It was the publicity it caused which brought about pressure. Other than that, people just plain don’t care. the people who do care have no say in anything anyway.
Now, instead of eating pizza, someone needs to go there with a boom box and play some Death Metal. After all, they never said what kind of music, right? It could work as a sort of Noriega event. Might be fun. I just can’t figure out what the art work etc. has to do with anything. Is it a “misery loves company” thing? Or are they just that big of attention whores that they demand others partake? If a festival atmosphere occurs, who will get the vending rights? Will Miller Beer cater?
Eclectic, would you be willing to do it for all of us to send a few more bucks to Soldiers Angels Foundation – in your name!!!????
Yeah, or that. Feebie makes a good suggestion. Your choice, Eclectic…
Bear,you have slayed me today,buy a lotto ticket,you are on.
Wow, I didn’t think anyone was serious! I actually had plans for tomorrow, but I’ll see what I can do. If people will send money to a good foundation, it’s worth it!
I’ll have to find a good pro-Bush shirt before I leave, though! :0)
How bout an anti Che one?
30pcs- #58
my inspiration these days:

“Don’t Feed Me, Bro!”
LOL! That is rich…
I am curious about what they consider “electrolytes”…
Sounds like a Sheehan Smoothie to me, bananas and ice cream…
Someone needs to set up a grill right next to them and char up some tasty burgers, hotdogs, grilled veggies, etc…
Anti-Che would definitely work.
On a related note, I had tacos and a diet iced tea for lunch. It was yum.
aj, I just love those faux news alerts…
Cheezborger, Cheezborger, Cheeps, Cheeps, no Coke, Pepsi.
Bear, thanks for the link. I’ll have to check it out when I get home. Work filter sensored it for violence…go figure.
heh… fire up the tailgaiting grill…
I sooooooooooooooo wish I could be there right now. I wanna make some MEAT right there in front of them…
Maybe do some lamb and veal, for the “those cute animals” horror…
Here’s the weather report for NYC in the next 24 hours: cold and rainy. Let’s see the courage of their convictions play out against that backdrop.
What arrogant little fuc*z. They haven’t finished college yet but they think they know what college should be teaching. I thought being educated beyond your intelligence didn’t happen until after grad school. Lets enroll them in a student exchange program in Gaza so they can fulfill they’re desires.
Excellent idea, but I have a suggestion to increase the take. Eclectic, we need you to take a portable grill with you and sell hot dogs to those not participating in the strike with the funds (net of your costs for hot dogs etc) getting donated to SAF.
Then take pictures and I’ll send you twenty bucks and another twenty bucks to the SAF. Whaddya think? PS make sure the grill is upwind of the protesters.
After their hunger strike, they will all go out for pizza and have the extra weight taken out by liposuction for Spring break.
Don’t these pampered, spoiled little brats have classes to attend or papers to download from the internet?
Heres one for their pampered little a$$es.Put their education on hold and join up,go on all day any second fire fight patrols,then do an all night ambush and be too edgy,tired and scared to even feel like eating.Then turn around and do it again the next day.Then they can go back and give it their all for their little worthless cause.
(sarc way on)
Now let’s apply the “critical” analysis of the hunger strikers to what docflash has just said to our fellow “creature of the land”.
Did you notice how he used the term “on”. Of course it implies that the Bear is sometimes “off”.
“On”. “off”. “On” (long pause as the hunger striker looks at the now juice swilling (hey! corn syrup isn’t food) strikers) “Off”.
Do you see what’s happening here? Even the simplest statements made in seemingly harmless conversation in our society suggest “location”, “place”, and “power dynamics”.
And then he says to our Brother, The Bear, “you have slayed me today”. What does this say about the speaker- that he believes our Bear is a killer. He has criminalized the Bear!
And how does this parallel the situation of our brothers and sisters who have been criminalized in prison. Remember Mookie? They criminalized him.
Let’s not pretend that this isn’t going on here in our midst.
How long will it be before George Bush’s storm troopers find Bear and arrest him. Or worse yet Ruby him.
For just being Bear. (Support staff is now crying and snotting prolifically. Speaker bravely waves away a tissue extended to him.)
Now let’s look at “buy a lotto ticket”.
What are the assumptions here? Does the speaker assume that our four legged beast participates in the currency-based system of privileged economics that he does? Can this creature of the land just waddle over to some shabby liquor store and just whip out a 20?
I think not.
Think about what’s going on here, people! And don’t think for a minute that this isn’t connected to the patriarchical fascist nature of the University or the reasons why Mumia is still in jail or the dying penguins “up there” with Matt Lauer.
No! I say to you (cries and whoops of the support staff now reaching a fever pitch) Brothers and Sisters, that we must fight at the personal level, on all levels against the oppression of the bear.
THAT! is why we are here.
THAT! is the struggle.
(Catches the stare of a hot babe who has come by to see the spectacle. Mouthing the words to her now- “CALL ME!!!”)
Collapses in faux starvation mode. Mobbed by the support staff.
“how are you feeling, Branson?” (he is a guy with two last names- Branson Larson or some such moniker.)
Support staff now convulsing in unison faces the Administration Building- if he dies blood is on your hands!!!!
Code Pink helicopter lands and out steps “Medea” (the gorgon queen). She comes to see what has become of the “Chiiiiiildren”
Stay tuned.
I chit you not.
#64 RetFireman- I was curious about this myself. So far, the only successful examples I have found have been involving people that have very few other choices of method for protest, particularly political prisoners.
The British Suffragettes from the early 1900s might be an example you’re seeking.
It seems to me that not only do you need to be willing to die to prove your case, but others need to believe it, too. As for why college kids do it, it seems more closely related to how young kids will refuse food when they’re angry rather than the more noble causes of Mahatma Gandhi and the British Suffragettes.
Like max in #71, I wonder if anyone knows what they mean by electrolytes. Somehow I picture them drinking sports drinks (most of which also contain glucose).
OMG! too much. but my kid can get it online at school!!! Wait til i tell the PTA
bear slow down your paws are smokin!
About the burger and dog thing… it is sooooooo Global Warming. Perfect!!!
How many of them Palestinian bandana rags are hanging around waiting for their chance at the bullhorn.
If these kids die, it’s Israel’s fault.
(how’s the kabob?)
And how are you feeling today?
Yes, we know that. How are you FEELING?
No, I mean how are you feeling NOW, not before you started this…this…
That would be what we’re feeling. How are YOU feeling?
bear…you are hilarious!
I remember when Indepundit interviewed a Code Pinko about her “fast”:
“So, the last time I ate was on the Third of July…”
“Hungry?”
“…No, not really. I’m occasionally a little bored with fruit juice and water. And I also allow myself, occasionally, wine or some beer. A couple of nights ago, it was Amelia’s birthday, and we were down on the Eastern Shore, and they were eating lobster and soft-shell crab. I had beer… (laughs) and water.”
I’m starting my “fast” today around 5:30 p.m. at The Salty Dawg Saloon!
I meant censored… it’s starting…
One of my dearest fantasies is to take some sorry, over-privileged, whiny punks like these ones out on a patrol with me on a nice hot summer day in Iraq. Almost forty pounds of Hillary-induced armor, thirty-five pounds of weapons, ammunition and water, and 125 degree heat. We’ll see who can sustain a hunger strike.
Image: Bear1909 gettin under another bowl of Dunkin Donuts Cawfee.
I confess. I am under the influence.
#91 If that’s what we’re calling fasting these days , count me in too. I might be their a little early so I’ll start without you.
Says the whiny
pukeer, i mean punk to ArmoredCAV:“Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! I’m missing my finals!!!!”
These kids better be careful. Low blood sugar can lead to irrational behavior. Oops! Too late!
I a little worried…
Good thing they had tissues
Hells bells why dont they get serious and do a waterboarding demonstration while their at it.
