Terrified University of Washington Holds ‘Community Healing’ For Trump Trauma
Heat Street ^ | November 9, 2016 | Emily Zanotti

The aftermath of Donald Trump’s election has been tough on our nation’s college campus special snowflakes. Forced to endure school the day after such a decisive Clinton defeat, they were quick to ask for a number of concessions from their professors and administrations.

All liberals possess undeveloped adolescent brains characterized by unrestrained and petulant acting out; fictional belief systems; feigned exaggerated emotions; and, paranoid hysteria. They’re not competent to successfully function in an adult world because they’re incapable of accepting and applying the factual evidence of life’s lessons, especially when derived from sources beyond their immediate control.

Wonder how many of these snowflakes weren’t afraid to riot.

The Left has provoked and spread fear to advance its nefarious agenda. One of the most powerful weapons against its agenda and the fear it spreads is ridicule.

UW is my undergraduate alma mater (74-78). They were just as much a bunch of snowflakes then as now. No, I don’t donate to the alumni fund.

Nice pictures of “Red Square” buildings in the article. They will still be there long after these turds are history.

All they have to do is talk to any Conservative and ask him/her how on earth THEY survived the last 8 years.

THAT would be the best instruction they could get on how to deal with something that is NOT exactly how THEY want it in life!

Welcome to the universe!

-—marginalization-—

Students can’t be marginalized. Since students don’t appear on the page at all and really don’t matter at all, they can’t be marginalized

Poor little snowflakes! How are they ever going to function in the real world when something doesn’t go their way?

Difficult to imagine what these Dalicate Doilies are going to do when life handes them a SERIOUS setback - and they no longer have campus ‘Safe Rooms’ to which to retreat and lick their psychic wounds.

I am very worried about flooding caused by all the special snowflakes melting down over Trump’s win.

The WWII generation and prior generations understood and accepted the need to train children against the selfish, rebellious, pleasure seeking, lazy nature that all people come into the world with. Such training required high expectations, discipline, boundary setting, and lots of patience in the face of the bratty, dishonest, insolent, mouthy behavior dished out by self-serving children and teens. Yet most parents persevered in order to raise up virtuous, self-disciplined youth who would become good leaders, builders, and defenders of society.

However, after more than fifty years under the control and corrupting influence of debauched, lying, lazy, shiftless, self-serving progressives, a large portion of today's young people are the reverse of previous generations. Like their progressive shapers and definers, they are selfish, loud mouth, out of control, lazy, pleasure seeking, individuals amusing themselves to death when they aren't having 'cry-ins' or rampaging through the streets shooting, burning, and destroying.

Why is that nuthouse in Washington called a “University”? That’s like calling a defective sewage treatment plant, “Mt. Rainier.”

"today’s young people can be so wimpy in comparison to yesterday’s youth who bravely stormed the beaches of France"

It amazes me too.

This is the decadence of Western Civilization. Long ago when we knew it would someday come, we couldn't imagine how it would manifest itself. Now we know.

Trump is ascendant. So are his children.

If he succeeds in reversing the direction of the USA--and he probably will!--the US will again soar into ascendancy; ascendant people, such as you and I, will rise to the top; and the silly decadents, such as those described in this article, will either get to work, get high, get menial jobs and blame everything except themselves for their sorry fate, return to their own Third World Countries--or all of the above.

The rest of us will work hard, take responsibility for our destiny, soar into ascendancy as did our forefathers, and prepare ourselves and our children for the next Normandy that must be invaded.

There will always be dregs. They will always blame everyone and everything for their misfortune except themselves. In a just society, they sink to the bottom. Tyrants tend to elevate them to positions of power. We see where they have settled when decadence seizes a civilization. If Trump succeeds, we will see what happens to them during ascendancy.

Yes they are. And snowflakes are their own worst enemy, they certainly contributed to the Trump vote, and they’re now eating their own, just like true little socialist dictators.
The real poison in colleges - liberal professors who enable this garbage.

As our parents and grandparents used to say:

“Knock off the cr*p or I’ll give you something to cry ABOUT!”

One of the things that approaches the delight of seeing that criminal, immoral, mean, vindictive, anti-American, desiccated old hag go down to crushing defeat, is to see the snowflakes (who swallow wholesale the tripe fed to them by liberals, their teachers/professors, and the media) cowering in terror at the concept of a President Trump.

It is a given that liberals actively stroke, praise, solicit and recruit young voters in the 18-21 age group, telling them they are the smartest, most talented, under appreciated resource this country has. Their very youth, they tell them, makes them the supreme arbiters of truth, because they are untainted by the accumulated debris and corruption of our society.

Blah, blah, blah.

Rush Limbaugh says it better when he calls them ‘skulls full of mush”, and that mush put into those receptive skulls by calculating leftists.

This is not to say all people in that range fall prey to this, there are plenty whose parents helped them tell the difference between someone who is trying to legitimately educate them, and someone who is trying to sell them snake oil, but there are far too many who become leftist zombies.

The thought of those cowering “snowflakes” does elicit delight, but I do temper it with the knowledge that the experiences of life can empty that liberal mush in their skulls, replacing it with logical and pragmatic thought processes. But this can take 10 or 20 years, and it is that time frame that bothers me.

The damage they can do in that time frame by enabling and empowering leftists who cravenly exploit them is considerable.

Note to self: never hire a UW grad, they’ll fold at the first hang-nail. Seriously UW, you people are pathetic, from the top administrators down to the lowliest freshman. You make me sick. All of you go home, put on your pajamas, and live in your mothers’ basements. The rest of us have work to do, GTFO of our way.

See my post at #35, especially the last three paragraphs. You are living proof of the validity of that viewpoint.

The truth is, at those young ages, even with good direction from your upbringing, young people ARE susceptible.

Heck, I had the advantage of having spent four years in the Navy before I went to college, and I found myself completely enamored of Sociology. Now (embarrassingly) when I look at Sociology, I see it for the leftist, statist claptrap it is and wonder how I could have ever seen it any other way.

Actually I was thinking along the lines of how do we salvage this ‘snowflake’ generation?

Terrified? Really? What the hell propaganda are they getting to be terrified after an election? What is this schism between fantasy and reality?

Paranoia? That’s a mental condition. And they need very real mental health help. The DNC should be ashamed of doing this, teachers ashamed of grooming them with fear.

“Trump trauma? I don’t remember obama trauma..”

It took a different form. Instead of whining in the streets we bought up all the ammo and freeze-dried food creating a temporary shortage

Finally figured it out. Parents have done such a terrible job of raising their kids that they gladly spend their life savings to send these little snowflakes to college. Let colleges bring them their hot cocoa. Parents can’t deal with them any longer.
