Just reading that article dropped my IQ by 30 points.

Someone should call Tom Steyer or George Stephanopoulus, and ask where you buy one of those handy-dandy “White Privilege” get-out-of-racism-free cards, and how much it costs.

And groups of blacks kicking the crap out of a white person in a park could be call microaggression as well.

Blacks forcing whites out of their cars to steal them could be called microaggression as well.

It could, but probably won't. You must remember, only whites can be racist 😡😩 because we allegedly have the power. 😡

Apparently there has been a power shift.

When does assertion of rights progress to baseless whining?
Around 1969, I would have guessed. Or for a younger generation, around 1992.

I’m starting to seriously consider macro aggression as a response.

Sooo, when college students sign up for classes and at the end of registration, a class has only white students, and they show up for class, that is a “microaggression”. Liberals have gone totally nuts.

I wonder if these complaining know how students register for class? And know how many of each race MIGHT show up to register? Liberals have gone totally nuts.

Out in the world, these students may be where there is only black people or brown people or white people. That is the world so the students need to be able to deal with these situations IF they have qualms about these situations. Life isn't fair - get used to it in college as that phenomenon will follow them the rest of their lives.

I was at a national convention for school counselors held in St. Louis, Mo. The topic of the speaker had something to do will getting alone with people who sounded different due to accents. A woman said, pointing at me, “She sounds funny”. I said, “No, YOU sound funny.” Everyone laughed. By the time one gets out of college, one should have enough personal ego not to be “threatened” by differences. Sheesh, this country is full of wimps.

This feeling of microaggression is the result of paranoid personality disorder (PPD). A person with symptoms of this disorder must get therapy because it could lead to schizophrenia. Individuals may also be at greater than average risk of experiencing major depressive disorder, agoraphobia, obsessive-compulsive disorder or alcohol and substance-related disorders.

"...and a multiracial student reported that she once “overheard other White students discussing admissions and laughing about how the only reason stupid Mexicans could get into this school was due to affirmative action.”

Ummm... and with affirmative action just how is this not true? This is like complaining that sure I'm stupid but you're a racist if you point it out to me.

University Report: A Room Full of White People Is a Microaggression

[eyeroll] Well, I feel microaggressed or oppressed or whatever when I'm the only non-idiot in the room, so if too many of these morons congregate in one place, they're violating my civil rights. And I am willing to press charges.

"For instance, white people often ask Asian-Americans where they were born, conveying the message that they are perpetual foreigners in their own land."

Or perhaps the "white" person is simply curious about where the "Asian" appearing person was born. Go figure.

Finding yourself at a Nation of Islam meeting is a microaggression.

Okay, they’ve finally come full circle. They won’t feel comfortable or safe or affirmed until we re-segregate. Your side of town, our side. Your bus, our bus. Progressivism is regressivism. Unbelievable.
