Liberals really are extremely fragile people. This helps explain why they need “safe spaces” with cuddly stuffed animals, grief counselors, and warning labels against “microaggressions.”
The latest evidence is a completely unironic and totally un-self-aware piece in the New York Times about the anguish of liberal law professors having to teach constitutional law at a time when the Supreme Court leans right.

Part of the problem is that liberals never hear the word “no” anymore. And that emboldens them.
Liberal: I need a safe space.
Correct response: No you don’t.
Liberal: Your free speech offends me.
Correct response: Too bad.
Etc.
Or how Andrew Breitbart used to respond to liberal drivel: “So?”
