There is another massive difference here. These students are not bravely standing up against a society or powers that are oppressing them, in the hope of creating change; these students are shouting loudly and disruptively at other folks who have nothing to do with the purported issue. It is as though I were to go into my neighbor's and say I was going to squat on their couch until the price of gasoline goes down. We have become so addicted to virtue-signaling that we now confuse it with making a difference, and believe that our voices are inherently so valuable that we are entitled to scream at random strangers under the guise of enlightening them.
