President Joe Biden responded to weeks of protest on college campuses calling for a ceasefire in Gaza with a brief statement that the right to protest should be protected, but “not the right to cause chaos.”
They want people to protest in a way that is counter productive to the point of protesting.
It’s the illusion of freedom, you’re free to protest but only this one way to make sure your protest is a failure and even if you do it our way we will have undercover cops join the protest and destroy property so we can break up your protest anyways.
We do not live under a democracy and you are not free.

Are they perfect? No, no publication is. But they have a deep respect for their reader’s intelligence that other orgs seem to lack.
Edit/Clarification - I think the typical headline for this isolates Bidens “order must prevail” statement is straight up misinformation given the larger context - and its the headline I’m seeing the most on other sites.
