She stood up to this power, suffered personally for it, and survived. That is a very strong message, and its one that needs to be heard - not just by the privileged students of Harvard, but the world at large.
She's a hero, because she thwarted elite power brokers' ability to rule, un-hindered by public opinion. If this is not a valuable asset to future generations of public, needing education, I don't know what it is - but of course it should come as no surprise that the power elite do not want younger generations to respect her sacrifice.
It is clearly not going to be good for the military-industrial complex if more, younger people, start questioning the lies they are told about why their nation state is at war, exporting wholesale destruction to the world.

Got it, and I agree completely. > "It is clearly not going to be good for the military-industrial complex if more, younger people, start questioning the lies they are told about why their nation state is at war, exporting wholesale destruction to the world." I agree completely. Also, we shouldn't let up on our "questioning" simply because someone from our club is president.
- mmjaa 9y agoI would argue it was Bush/Obama/Trump .. I mean, the 'collateral damage' video wouldn't have been so harmful to the so-called integrity of national security, if in fact Bush hadn't pushed the USA into such a heinous, destructive, evil war .. in the first place. We should also not make the mistake of personalising the criminal government around the single figurehead. Sure, Trump hate is in fashion, as was Obama hate and Bush hate, but its a much, much bigger problem than can just be represented by a figurehead. Those figureheads are there to direct our hatred from the real targets behind the scenes: the generals and CEO's currently driving Americas' military-industrial complex into endless conquering follies.
