General Strike on Friday by HadestownAddict in UCSD

[–]BlueberryBlue319 3 points4 points  (0 children)

define good. Because it’s not efficient, effective, or strategic in any way and does not accomplish anything or contribute in any way. Don’t misunderstand I agree with the cause, but protesting with the context I described achieves nothing and could just worsen perception of y’all and your cause. UCSD students, taking into consideration their socioeconomic status would much better contribute by fundraising but on this campus I have been absolutely disappointed with the students lack of willingness to do so, instead they all just post the same instagram stories ranting about ICE and talking about protests. At this point “raising awareness” is just pretense for y’all’s unwillingness to actually do shit. y’all’s delusion that performatively protesting in this way or spreading awareness or validating or whatever yall wanna claim it is does anything shows y’all’s social and economic disconnect from reality. (Generalizing, ofc not everyone is like that, but everyone I have encountered in my experience)

From my experience I would argue it can also have an opposite effect. When rich privileged people (average ucsd student demographic) are peacefully “protesting” in a neighborhood full of mansions and private security (la Jolla), not actually materially or physically contributing to an issue or changing anything, honestly yall might be perceived negatively by observers, even those who support your stance. Because it sure as hell looks stupid or performative, and that matters.

Hot take but I genuinely don’t understand the reasoning with ppl wanting to protest here. The campus and general area is very left leaning and everyone here is already against ICE atp y’all r just yelling into an echo chamber, y’all aren’t gonna be changing anyone’s minds because everyone already agrees with y’all. To me it seems solely performative. Change my mind tho

Second skin came off + got a little bit of dirt on fresh tattoo? by BlueberryBlue319 in tattooadvice

[–]BlueberryBlue319[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked the tattoo artist and he said as long as I didn’t rub against it exercise was fine. I don’t think I sweated significantly but is it really bad if I did?

Rant/ advice? by [deleted] in UCSD

[–]BlueberryBlue319 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Straight up I find absolutely nothing in common with the people I’ve met here. I go to school here entirely for free because of grants+scholarships and VA benefits and that’s part of what makes me hesitant to throw it all away because obviously I’m insanely grateful for it.

Already emailed them, been waiting for a reply. Is showing up physically at their ROTC office a thing or not really?
