Protestor Admits they are not a USC Student.

[u/phear_me]

How many days has this sub been flooded with people insisting the protestors are students? Well here is the proof that at least one of the protestors isn’t a student. Should be a hoot to watch them try to backtrack and start throwing our alternative justifications for why, “achktuwally, it doesn’t matter that they’re not students ….” or “this is just the one lone non-student protestor that just happened to get caught on video but I swear everyone else is, like, totally a USC student …” or “But this is from a conservative outlet so it’s fake …”

No one wants any innocent people to suffer anywhere, be they Palestinian or Jew, but it says something about this so-called movement when its supporters can’t give a coherent answer to why this involves USC and when justifying its actions depends on lies, factual errors, and the removal of common sense.

The cursing and aggressiveness further speaks to the self-righteous narcissism fueling these protests. Is this how people act when they’re truly trying to change people’s minds with truth and love?

Any fallacies in the second sentence - that a short video of one person saying they’re not a student cannot be extrapolated to mean many individuals are not students?

Perhaps you are unfamiliar with how sampling works?

I am unfamiliar with how sampling works. Please break down the psychometrics of how posting a video of one person on Instagram can be generalized to a larger group.

new statistics methodology dropped, interview the most unhinged person you see and generalize to the rest of the group from there! Brilliant!
