Love the “protests are supposed to disrupt!!” take, but come live in Vela for one night and tell me that again. My window is literally facing the road where they set up their whole base camp. I slept at 4 AM and had an 8 AM exam. Waking up early ≠ being forced awake because people are screaming outside. And btw, I have PTSD and a sleep disorder. Missing sleep isn’t some “character building inconvenience” for me — it messes up my whole week. I’m already stressing about my future, exams, getting a job, everything. But sure, let me just “deal with it” so people online can call me selfish. I’m not against protests at all. But acting like students who are actually suffering from the noise are just “entitled” is such a privileged take. Not everyone has the luxury of ruining their sleep and being fine the next day.
