I mean, if they’re here specifically to go to school and then they get kicked out of school, then it’s tough to argue that they should be able to stay without having to switch to a different kind of visa (or enroll in a different school).
In other words, the injustice comes from the school policy, not the immigration policy.
I explained that the “legal, systemically supported, and/or long-standing” immigration policy isn’t bad policy. (If you disagree, explain why you think people on a student visa shouldn’t have to be students.) That means the bad policy is squarely on the part of the school. What more do you want?
It’s kind of a mute point, though. So rather than putting pressure on the immigration system to rescind visas they instead put pressure on the faculty of schools.
If you refuse to be sheep, have some compassion, and have joined up thinking there are plenty of pressure points those motivated enough can lean on.

You didn’t really address their points
