Do your children a favor. DON'T PAY FOR THEIR COLLEGE!
Make them work their way through school. If they get it for free it will be worth nothing.
I have a couple of “micro-agressions” for the Left: “Oh,shut up”, and “get a life”.
Liberals need smelling salts indeed they need to get out of their chimp cages asap.
I'm offended and outraged!
So Hillary no longer has the smartest cankles in the Milky Way?
How about a MACRO-aggression? “Come at me with that PC crap and I’ll bust you in the mouth.”
Bozell seems to have missed the fact that the “Wisconsin list” of “microaggressions” was not something promulgated by “nutty professors”, but something inflicted on the professoriate of a minor branch campus by professional university administrators in the Provost’s office. The same goes for the lists of “microaggressions” circulating in California, which came out of the Chancellor’s office.
Most professors, even the most committed leftists, like intellectual give-and-take. The attempts to quash free speech in academe come principally from people who gave up being professors and became administrators because intellectual give-and-take didn’t satisfy their desire to run other peoples’ lives, or from “student governments” full of the sort of brave feminists who need to be issued fainting couches and smelling salts against the possibility of hearing something that offends them.
Rush Limbaugh had a segment that shows just how far into La-La-Sensitivity-Land the Left is going. CNN’s Don Lemon was interviewing Donald Trump about his comment that the Mexican immigrants were rapists. Trump then cited articles in the New York Times and the Huffington Post.
Lemon refuted, “Those stories were about Mexican women being raped while getting smuggled across the border.”
Trump replied, “Then who’s doing the raping?”
The Left can get all teary-eyed about Mexican women being raped (while breaking our laws incidentally) but they can’t make the logical connection that it is Mexican smugglers who must be raping them because (gasp) that would be racist!
If they want to be sheep, let them be sheep... so long as I am a wolf.
Little would please me more than to have the opportunity to show these weak-minded, ungrateful heathens an example or two of real "microaggression". They'll think they've walked into a propeller!
Bump.
They must have
Well, it’s obviously a bunch of white ranchers down there at the border rapin’ them women as they sneak across...
/s
Excellent suggestion
PC speech enforcement IS both micro AND macro-aggression.
I live in the South. I don’t have enough opportunity to practice MY aggression against the idiot PCers, although we ridicule the stupidity of these people among ourselves all the time.
I don’t want to prey on the pathetic fools. I just won’t tolerate them preying on me.
“Most professors, even the most committed leftists, like intellectual give-and-take.”
Nothing could be further from the truth. They do love ferreting out people who do not follow leftist orthodoxy, but this is followed by a myriad of grade and career punishments. They do no respect the concept of free debate and of opponents not being evil.
There are far too many examples and it indicates a pervasive cultural reality.
May not be a choice
