#Duke #JerrySeinfeld #Protests
They didn’t all leave because of Gaza, they just didn’t want to listen to his standup.
cancel culture has gotten sickening. Jerry Seinfeld was part of my teenage culture in the mid-90s, we all waited every Thursday Nights to watch the latest comedy about nothing. I don’t care if Jerry is Jewish, he has defined my generation as I grew up. it’s a graduation speech, not a place to voice out your protests. wanna be accepted in society, work hard, earn your way. these gaza protests have gotten worse and i am not jewish either, i am originally from sweden 🇸🇪. you want your own land, go ask the united nations for help. schools are for education, not a place to protest. my opinion. I guess in this day and age, opinions are no longer allowed, if we hate someone or something, we either protest or cancel them out. sad state of affairs.
His message: you’re not going to change the world, despite what you may think. Hitler didn’t, and neither will you.
These people will be forgotten. Jerry Commencement speech will be remembered. This rocks.
Good for Jerry!
Hollywood is filled with pedos
A parody of himself
Possibly because Seinfeld is not funny?
Love to see this!!!
Nobody wants to hear a boring speech by a boring guy on an empty stomach. I would’ve left too.😂
Yeah about 40 walk out from so many thousand
40 more people were not masters of their own domain and lost on the bet
Oh man, I would have LOVED to have Seinfeld speak at my graduation!!!! He’s such a neat person and awesome comedian! Never lose your sense of humor, even over losers walking out and excluding you!
If so-called white people would stop whitewashing history, stealing indigenous people’s lands, and nationalities while pretending to be something they are not the world would be a much better place. The problem is white supremacy. And the invention of races, the term white people, and white supremacy that are all nothing but manufactured lies the TRUTH has finally caught up to.
white people live rent free in your head
He nailed it! The average college student has NO IDEA how actual life works!
Jesus dude did he just stop watching TV after his show ended? Like bruh
Granted I wouldn’t want Jerry Seinfeld as my commencement speaker either
Hate crime. Those were uninvited transients sitting in the crowd who left.
The students probably saw Michael Richards in the back.
jokes on these kids who embarrass themselves, and have a degree that means absolutely nothing.
Why is it news that like 15 students walked out of their own commencement ceremony? Who cares? They missed out, I’m sure Seinfeld was great.
They were chanting for him like Jerry Springer!
Who cares? A bunch of naive kids who are caught up in the next outrage movement.
Who arreee these people?
Why does my taxes go to support these schools?
Like 40 ppl maybe shut up NBC
I want a list of the majors of all the students who left. Probably end with “Studies”.
They were ALL total losers, without jobs….. no one will hire Snowflakes 🙂
“It is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance.”~Thomas Sowell
WHY?
The crowd that demands we be tolerant has no tolerance.
Performative, childish tantrum that does nothing to advance their cause.
Let them leave. Nobody came to see them anyways. They’re just another group of nobodies who will live a fruitless life full of fruitless endeavors to obtain a status that will forever be unreachable, all because they think that the only way to get what you want is to cry about it. They’re just a small blip on the radar, forgotten 15 seconds after they have left their seat in their attempt to show the rest of the crowd how mad they are. Well done, nameless wanderers. Well done.
Keep walking!
Glad they walked out they have no place in the kind of place!
“Whaaaaat’s the deal with people walking out”?
Withdraw there certificate. Every loser that walked out is trash.
fake news
“There are DOZENS of us!!”
i heard they ran out of babka at the luncheon???
Lefties are mad they are losing the culture war.
The silent majority has spoken.
none of them were alive when the show was 01 on T.V
Good for the students. There is hope for the future yet. Shame on Seinfeld.
#NBC is garbage
30 students out of 7000
that told me nothing
Those brave students – I’m sure all the children are safe now 🙄
NO DIPLOMA FOR YOU! NEXT!!😂😂😂
What impact will it have on the people dying in Gaza? None!
Losers. Hope they learned how to serve coffee at Starbucks, because that’s all their worthless degrees will get them.
This is CGI fake people. Look at the borders of the face. NBC is corrupt
ok Adam
what the heck is AWT69X?
This extract prove that his speech was a hypocritical one. Many people go to university to get a degree, many dont know how toange information, absorb facts and many just dont know how to think.
Rude brats .
I love it make hipsters look dumb. It’s not really hard
FLGC Floral Growth Corp weed stocks set to soar as Biden just rescheduled Cannabis from schedule 1 to a schedule 3 classification!!

I hope these spoiled brats continue to have miserable lives. Thankful a small group of celebrities actually speak the truth instead of following “the message” to keep their precious careers.
And they want to be his latex salesman.
Whats with all these boomers and bots bullying young people? Grow up. They’re right. The young people of your generation that fought for race and gender rights were also right. It’s tragic how powerful misinformation has become and how ignorant Americans are now.
Aune don’t date teenagers, Jerry
So “stunning and brave” to leave. Can’t handle adversity and think they can just walk away from everything. #Weak
Jerry Seinfeld is the GOAT 😎
I love Jerry.
Most people don’t stand for anything koodos to the students that had the heart to walk out. These bots are bugging in the comment section
CLICKBAIT AF
Bunch of idiots walking off to the dorm lol
I accumulated 30k in debt to have to listen to the assclown from Seinfeld. Yeah, how inspiring.
So eager to hire those kids. Imagine how they’ll walk out of their jobs when they disagree with the boss and then complain about their pay and benefits and student debt. Oh wait, the student debt will be paid by others, …er uh, I mean “forgiven”
“WHATS THE DEAL WITH THESE COLLEGE STUDENT? *Seinfeld theme plays*”
“Whats the deal with genocide?”
– Jerry Seinfeld
Woke people can’t stand comedy.
Democrats are really bringing antisemitism back in style huh?
Fortunately the ones who walked out were just people with no sense of humour.
No one cares about these graduates. Let them walk and keep walking.
Hahaha genocide that’s so funny !
Yeah quite funny
Anti semitism alive and well on American college campuses
I bet those were just people going to the bathroom they should have filmed 10mins later them all coming back from their poop time.
Incase if those don’t know, Seinfeld heavily supports Israel alongside the IDF .
In short he said; “ the world is evil, but it’s ok, just remember to smile even when my nation (Israel) is committing a genocide “
Billionaire problems 😂
Calling those walking out students is as generous as assuming they’ll do anything but demand hand outs while crying over the plight of terrorists and celebrating a complete lack of personal accountability.
The crowd booed the 30 odd who walked out. And applauded the speaker. Editing video can cause miss information.
Hey NBC, virtue signal much? Why not be journalists and tell it like it is, instead of what you obviously wish it was.
Losers…
Oh, I get it. They hate him because he’s Jewish.
Just what newly-minted adults at an elite university need to hear on their special day: a has-been entertainer haranguing them with trite platitudes.
No soup for them!
Nobody Graduates repeat the whole year.
For Kesha ✊🏼
Why did people walk out?
Take a guess. It’s that
@@beerbeer100 virtually signalling against anyone who criticises woke culture?
What brittle souls weve created…
Jerry is wise – life often doesn’t make a lot of sense and a sense of humor and ability to just laugh things off is vital for a decent life.
Are the kids bringing back racism? WOW!
Terrorist supporters not students !
Brave kids😊
The weak sheep walked out.
They should have their degrees revoked
Rumour has it that his name on the honourary degree is spelt with a G & an I.
This is so childish
Whats with Gena? Surname Cide?
