Unless and until we push back on all this PC crap, the lefturds will continue to push their ridiculous ‘I’m offended’ politics of victimization.
These ‘professors’ are NOT doing their charges any favors by coddling their tender sensibilities every time someone smirks at them, or utters something they find offensive.
Life ain’t all participation trophies and safe spaces, snowflakes.
The emotional blackmail tactics only work as long as people remain empathetic.
These cry-bullies are destroying empathy by burning people, individually and en masse.
It also destroys any credibility for the “we’re better because we’re more caring, understanding, communicative”.
No, you’re not.
Not when you won’t stand in that moment and say, “I’m offended”.
Not when you won’t bother to care about the other side and engage in projection, assuming the disagreement or misunderstanding is only due to “they hate us/ fear us/ are crazy/stupid/evil”.
Not when you don’t care about the proportionality. Bad joke or rude comment, liberal bullies will form a digital or actual lynch mob, destroying someone’s career, taking away their livelihood, not caring if the person ends up homeless and isolated. Not caring if the punishment is FAIR.
Just tear them to pieces, the degree of the offense or actual guilt is irrelevant. It is seen as appropriate because someone officially oppressed is offended and their friends and a thousand strangers can join in the bullying, enabled by moral cover and egged on by their friends to be ever more cruel. Then move on to the next target of the day’s 2 minute hate, never caring to check on the status of the target weeks or months later.
I will give Jon Ronson credit in his TED talk for being the first to actually DO that.

And liberals still excuse it as “well, if we do that and it is too much, maybe we guaranteed no one else will commit blasphemy”.
