Ivy League educated students. The future “leaders” of our country. We’re in big trouble.
They are not only material Luddites but intellectual Luddites as well. Maybe they should spend their time with something more suited to their intellectual level, like “Archie Comics” or “Superman”.
Columbia University students are calling on the college to provide trigger warnings
I would EXPEL every one of them immediately.
Supression of speech - and this is supposed to be a “center of enlightenment”...
Trigger? That’s a gun thingy. I thought libtards hate guns s/
Where are the ‘trigger warnings’ for Obola, or Islamic
terrorism, or ISIS, or the Treason that has brought
all Enemies of the US Constitution into the homeland?
So now we need warnings on Greek mythology??? Really??
But colleges freely and openly and brazenly push “The Vagina Monologues” without any warnings of how obscene and violent that performance is. Vagina Monologues contains a scene of female sexual assault by another female. But that’s ok apparently, because it is pushing “lesbianism”, and being “lesbian” makes you a member of an officially recognized grievance group.
These people just never shut up.
If you become emotionally or psychologically disturbed when reading fiction, you need professional help.
I can see how a graphic, nonfiction account of sexual assault would trouble a rape victim.
I can also see how college students looking to do as little as possible are attempting to avoid grappling with the classics.
I’m not so sure Archie comics or Superman adventures wouldn’t trigger something for these idiots. I bet the Dick and Jane primary readers of our youth would trigger mortal terror with their overt sexism.
LOL! Funny but how very true.
It probably has something to do with academic topics they find useless since it is so obviously easy now to twirl government around their fingers with diversity, inclusion, exclusion (of hurtful things that might upset them), understanding, feeling and compassion for those things not conservative.
In truth it is the act of maintaining constant influence and control. They’d simply rather get the degree after a few cush classes and then move off to some elite liberal job judging and punishing others they disdain, all the while enjoying their unfettered and well funded lifestyles which they deserve simply because they are better than everyone else....they ‘feel’.
Funny and too real.
Working at Disneyland might be too stressful for some of them.
Columbia is “Ivy League” now?\
How about Podunk State?
Would be curious to see what the Trailways bus station in downtown Memphis would do to them.
Those who want to be offended can always find something that offends them.
The problem is, those few get enough attention that what offends them gets censored.
Rule by minority.
Making the world safe via political correctness — one offense at a time.
