I find SJWs to be a macroaggression.

Soon to be followed by...

The quantum aggression. It occurs to the offended instantaneously from another universe.

Also know as Spooky Aggressionism.

I frequently see comments that say ‘you can’t make this stuff up.’

Well, yes ‘they’ can — and do.

Wonder how many hours the 2 profs pondered and imbibed before creating the ‘invisibility microaggression’ idea?

It’s the dual nature of the classes of less than aggressions...

Everything has a negative sign and there is no zer0.

It’s no wonder people bury their faces in their Smartphones.
There is no way to communicate without offending someone.

Its a micro-aggression to ask a minority where they are from, but its OK to call a white person a racist and call for their extinction.

No no no. If anyone accuses you of a micro aggression, simply say "Allow me to offer my micro apology."

...University of Rhode Island...

When the term "public Ivies" became de rigueur some 30 years ago, URI was mentioned as a state school that "...everybody (in RI) knows that it's high school after high school."

Based on this academic's "research", I don't think they've increased the school's rating in a positive direction.

Maybe they did, and it's the prof that can't keep up with the expectations of students, so it's a matter of job security for her to want lesser prepared scholars.

(Don't know much, if anything about her collaborator's Bucknell.)

If you see them and acknowledge their existence, your are a RACIST BIGOT.
If you just go about your business and don’t acknowledge them, you are committing an INVISIBLE MICROAGGRESSION and you are a RACIST BIGOT.
So I guess I will just have to settle for being a (wait for it)
A RACIST BIGOT!!!!
