world of high unemployment, the prospect of downward mobility and debilitating debt.

The alt right is being energized in the status quo—this should control the uniqueness frame—students are already engaging in harmful dialogue in the status quo it's just a question of engagement from the other side—limits on free speech are just being used to sustain white supremacy

The impact is mass violence and a perpetuation of violent hegemonic systems of the status quo—only an unflinching agonistic stance can solve.
