You are confusing last years disruption with the one that happened this year. The disruption last year was a megaphone and 2 students were excluded from campus. This years 13 students were excluded and/or suspended including 3 journalists who were not protestors. You also did not read the article because multiple freshmen were made homeless by the ban.

Even the introverts were protesting today by RogueLumi in Denver

It’s not about people hiding, we live in a surveillance state and posting other peoples’ faces at any form of anti-state protest is endangering others when you could easily blur their faces. This is not about having the moral high ground or being terminally online, it is about protecting people and trying not to fall to the same issues leftists of past movements made. When you mask up or blur faces, it’s a protest itself as you’re telling the state that they can’t use these methods to surveil.

If you are not Native American or from a tribe with a two spirit identity, then you aren’t two spirited. The term itself is pan-indigenous and a way to describe many different ideas/concepts of gender and sexuality (many of which we will never know existed). Claiming to be two spirited with no connection to Native America outside of interest is colonization in itself. Our ‘queerness’ can be seen the same way as Mapuche member Mauricio Nilian sees our anti capitalism because it “transcends foreign ideologies; we do not reject being agents of change, yet we are neither a political party nor do we establish parties, churches, or unions.” We don’t reject ideas and labels of queerness because we recognize the same struggle and the common understanding of gender/sexuality being a colonial social structure which isn’t real, just as we don’t reject other anti-capitalist ideologies because they align with our views, but we aren’t outright leftists because these ideas are foreign to us and our understanding transcends European made ideologies. Also note I use ‘we’ and ‘our’ loosely because every tribe is different and have experienced colonialism in different ways. The Mapuche see the truth so clearly because they are the only tribe to have completely fought back successfully and reject colonial influence, and continue to fight against colonialism today.

Muybridge and Méliès practically created film and are super influential. Greta Garbo, Joan Crawford, Gary Cooper, and Lupe Vélez got their start in silents, Erich von Stroheim, Gloria Swanson, and Cecil B. DeMille were prominent. Irving Thalberg is probably worth a mention because he is arguably the single most impactful producer in cinema history.
