Attack of the ‘bubble children’

When you read stuff like this, it makes you wonder if there isn’t a small something to The Taliban’s point of view.

I'm starting to wonder if we haven't actually become the Great Satan that the Iranian revolutionaries called us, way back when.

I don’t think this kind of contrived fragility, or pressumption of weakness will last many more years.

Sometimes I wonder if America wouldn't be much improved after facing a complete, total loss of normal civil behavior, collapse.

I'd be all Mad Max, Road Warrior, Mohawk-sportin' and in S&M leather, riding a chopper.... teaching these fragile eggs what it would be like to be broken.

One of the most awesome rants ever. I’ve linked it on Twitter.

Nothing makes me feel safer than an atmosphere of quiet, thoughtful discussion, where people are listened to respectfully and without interruption and then there is a space for thought before the next person politely answers.

This is a very dangerous cultural development. Cognitive Dissonance is a developmental issue. These young adults have closed themselves off (with institutional backing) and embraced the cultural fascism of the universities.

These are the same young adults who would be the enablers of death camps.

Got ammo?

[Squawk 8888]

Same here. I think it happened twice during my lifetime, and never at school.

RIGHT!!!! And an additional slightly off topic mini-rant, that most of those tender flowers have been propagandized with the supposed wonders of pre-industrial life...they would not even know what to DO to begin to survive when the power goes off and the gas pump is dry....

Wow...

Pictures are, of course, art. For sure and no denying it. Here's a nice "art shot" I took a few hours ago ;-)

When the wrong ISIS wannabe finds the right Dirty Bomb or destroys a specific group of electrical grids in major American cities, you will then see the new Mad Max dystopia.
The main choices in this harsh environment will be to adapt, hide or perish. You might not even have your own phone anymore.

I don’t care what happened to you, and how sad it was. I have NO obligation to tippy toe around and avoid every behavior that might make you think of something you don’t want to think about.

This is what my grandchildren say to me every time I walk into the room 1/2:-)

“Ethnic minorities deserve safe spaces without white people."

Without white people to keep things civilized; there are no safe spaces for ethnic minorities.

[GeronL]

Leftists also need safe spaces from opinions and viewpoints they disagree with, rooms of coloring books and playdoh

[dr_lew]

So everybody is disagreeing, all around the table. I am surprised and disturbed that Compton doesn't repeat and emphasize his point. Finally, at the end, Tolman, who's the chairman, would say, "Well, having heard all these arguments, I guess it's true that Compton's argument is the best of all, and now we have to go ahead."

From Los Alamos from Below in "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!"

The irony is that these paragons of rational civility were making the A-bomb.

When the SHTF, the world will be cleansed of their idiocy. Cry about that one kids...

[AllAmericanGirl44]

Excellent

[djf]

Tell that to Van Gogh, who sold like $4.50 worth of art during his too short life...

[Tallguy]

(Standing Applause)

[Girlene]

Safe spaces started on campuses (highschool and college)for LGBT kids. I guess other groups were jealous.



They limit free speech.

[albertabound]

not enough in government grants so he cut off his ear....perhaps some of the whiners could take a cue .....who knows when the next Piss Christ will grace the Arts World...
