US to other countries: You should allow your students to protest!!! Free Speech! Democracy! Ligma! Skibidi Toilet! Dezz Nutt! Freedom!Of course, they would be absent, the so-called 'free' society that spent the last 2-3 decades labeling others as autocratic, oppressive, and authoritarian can't stand when events and sympathy don't align with what they consider good or bad.
Also US: Noooo...! US students not allowed to protest!!! Deploy the cops! Arrest the protesters!
