NEW: Far-left and conservative protesters unite in chant of ‘F*ck Joe Biden’ at U of Alabama | The post-millennial

On Wednesday, far-left and conservative protesters at the University of Alabama united in their mutual disdain for President Biden, uniting chants of “F*ck Joe Biden!”

The moment took place around 5:30 p.m. local time at the university’s Student Center Plaza during a pro-Palestinian protest that was met by pro-Israel demonstrators, according to video footage shared by an editor of the school newspaper.

The pro-Palestinian demonstration was organized by students involved in the UA Leftist Collective, according to to WVTM 13.

The university’s alleged ties to Lockheed Martin, a defense contractor, and the Defense Department were at the center of the protest.

In a press release, organizers said: “As students at the University of Alabama, we can no longer stand by in silent complicity as our institution funds a state-sponsored massacre of Palestinians.”

“A 2022 audit found that the University of Alabama administration received $10.4 million in funding from the Department of Defense that year,” the release continued. “UA also has a very close relationship with Lockheed Martin, a defense contractor that has supplied Israel with fighter jets, Hellfire missiles and other weapons currently being used to slaughter Palestinians. In 2018, UA received $15 million in stock from Marillyn Hewson, then-CEO of Lockheed UA is listed as a partner university of the company, and it allows Lockheed to hold recruiting events on campus.

This comes as similar protests have sprung up on college campuses in the form of encampments, which former President Donald Trump demanded on Wednesday be eradicated following extreme violence and reports of anti-Semitism that have taken place in the Gaza camps in the US.
