Fair take. Views collected with scientifically methodical scrupulosity have greater value in an important sense.
But there's value in other ways too. Video of students walking around tearing down posters of hostages, e.g., tells us things that a well-conducted survey cannot. (Not to imply you said anything directly contrary to this view of mine.)
Speaking of surveys, consider that Pew Research found that Democrats and Democratic leaners aged 18-30 sympathize far more with the Palestinians than the Is rae lis — 47% vs. 7%. (Survey results published April 2, 2024.)
Views on elite college campuses — where people are younger than the 18-30 group as a whole, and lean politically farther left — are likely even more lopsided.
While absence of sympathy for Isr. does not equate to endorsement of H.s., we can safely assume that among the callow & sanctimonious on elite college campuses, there is some relation between the two. In my view, any relation greater than zero is disturbing, wrong, harmful, and deserves to be publicized.
Anyway, thanks for making a fair point in a measured way.
EDIT: Note the multiple blank spaces above, inserted not by me but by the omniscient algo overlord at the moment of posting. Experience has taught me that they indicate that disapproval of my views which always precedes a period of shadow-you-know-what-ing. So dark, so very 2024.
