How much did this unnecessary study cost?

Anyone who is not the subject matter (easily offended people) could tell you the answer to its premise.

Have you ever asked for a trigger warning?

If a person visits your college campus and says thing you don’t agree with, what do you do?

Is Trump a racist?

“The study also notes that the easily offended are less concerned with helping others, despite constantly engaging in virtue signalling to suggest that is their primary goal.”

I find that typical of practically all DemocRats in general. They claim to want to help the poor, but their primary means of “helping the poor” is to advocate the theft of property of “the rich” (they never see themselves as rich, no matter what their income) and having the government distribute it (after taking a large cut for “administration”).

Thank you, thank you!



Been thinking about that one for a couple of days now.

I had to find a good pic, LOL. I may make another version. As usual. Heh.

“The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to such a pass that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love, and in order to occupy and distract himself without love he gives way to passions and coarse pleasures, and sinks to bestiality in his vices, all from continual lying to other men and to himself. The man who lies to himself can be more easily offended than anyone. You know it is sometimes very pleasant to take offence, isn’t it? A man may know that nobody has insulted him, but that he has invented the insult for himself, has lied and exaggerated to make it picturesque, has caught at a word and made a mountain out of a molehill — he knows that himself, yet he will be the first to take offence, and will revel in his resentment till he feels great pleasure in it, and so pass to genuine vindictiveness.”

-Father Zosima in Fyodor Dostoevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov

“Get rid of HR.”

A guy from Australia told me they are referred to as “Inhuman Resources” there.

About 20 years ago I interviewed for a job where I was warned I would be harassed and abused by other employees. Not for any particular reason - it was just that many of the employees were like family and they played rough like a bunch of brothers, even the women. I took the job anyway and it wasn't nearly as bad as they said, but it would have turned a modern snowflake into a slushy, crying mess in a week. You had to learn to take it as well as dish it out.

It takes a couple of days for AJ stories to reach the mainstream.

“Study Reveals That Easily Offended People Are Less Productive, Bad Employees”

whatever that “study” cost, i’d have done it for half the cost and reached the same conclusion ...

I knew this over 45 years ago. Found it was easier to QUIT & find another job than to deal with the dead weight.

Finally became self employed around 1980. Never looked back.
