From Fred’s essay: “In the world that awaits, you will not be able to run to mount a protest march every time someone says a word that you do not like.”
I see absolutely no evidence of that. Here in the real world, protests are mounted when someone says something that the privileged few don’t like. Witness the campaign of Donald Trump. What we are seeing on campuses is a glimpse of the future everywhere.

Sure, that will work. Go for students.
Let us know when to celebrate the end of racial problems.
What I would give to have the late actor, John Houseman, give this speech in the person of his most well-known roll of Professor Kingsfield (Paper Chase)! I would hope that there is someone in the oratorical arts who could do it the justice it deserves!
Ah, Bart, where at that age do we get such wisdom?
Spellcheck is an instrument of the DEVIL - for 'roll' please substitute 'role'! AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH!
Today’s Brownshirts come with black skins. All paid for by George Soros.
I affirm that...../
The site reminds me of that “We Are The 99%” site where all of the OWS campers were posting their hand-written sob stories.
I demand blacks stop shooting pregnant women in the back of the head.
Fortunately, it was a backwater when I was there. I’m not sure the students were even aware of the Vietnamnam war at the time. Nobody occupied the administration building, there were no marches or demonstrations, and ROTC drilled on the athletic fields. I liked it like that.
It used to be that the American left were rebels without a cause.
A generation later the leftists of student America are rebels without a clue.
Both of these happen when people remain uneducated about history, the greatest travesty perpetrated by the left on the Halls of Academe.
Adolph Hitler was a socialist, and now that kind thinking is in vogue today in the USA, especially on college campuses......build a Utopia, even if you have to ram it down the throats of a formerly free people.Obama is no different, except that his liberal facsism is “softer and gentler’, so that genocide is keep quiet and under reported,like that perpetrated on the Yazidhis by Obama’s policies.Obama is a liberal fascist, and the worst piece of work to come down the pike in a very long time in the USA.
These people need a wake-up call.......................

By “wake up call” do you mean a slap upside the head?
It isn’t just 20 somethings but into the 30-somethings.
I had confrontations with an HR manager that age who said you can’t say anything disrespectful, and her definition of disrespectful speech was anything non-PC.
So when they showcased a guy who left his wife and four kids under the age of 10 who gushed about how supportive the company was of him “coming out” and joining a new partner as “employee of the month”, I publicly stated that I felt sorry for his wife. I was challenged on the statement. I said four kids under ten have no idea what their father did except break up the family. I was told that was disrespectful, he doesn’t have a choice on his sexuality. I retorted that he clearly had enough control to make four kids in ten years, as well as choose to leave his wife after doing so - and that I’d prefer we didn’t celebrate adultery when there are contract wins, people earning MBAs, etc that should be supporting.
I was reprimanded by HR for that.
Then come the cases of the transgenders using the bathroom, taking over women’s meetings / gatherings, etc, and no one is allowed to counter it. As a female, I faced flack for filing a sexual harrassment charge on a man in a dress who thought it appropriate to corner me in a bathroom stall and lecture me on tolerance, as well as discuss bleeding neo-vaginas as an alternative to having your period for women and thus did understand my “pain”, not caring or deliberately discussing this while I tried to have lunch at my desk. What did the feminist graduate HR manager do? Oh, it is just a disagreement between two women, go have a “come to Jesus meeting”. The irony is painful. Only when I discussed the disgusting surgical details it would relay to me while I tried to eat at my desk to avoid it did they actually tell it to stop anything.
Their definition of respect is never disagreeing with the politcally correct line.
The definition of tolerance is wholesale endorsement or silence.
And those who have more politically protected check boxes in their profile are given more moral weight.
Perzactly!..................
OH BOY gladly I not into that situation getting there I was among friends one of the women got tick off that about my comment calling Catyalin Jenner Bruce Jenner she yell at me LOL!
So I told her okay how about former Bruce Jenner LOL!
I turned around all the magazines that had IT in that supposedly sexy pose and as “woman of the year”.
I didn’t want to have to explain to my son why that man made me mad, but he just thought it was because the covers were too sexy.
And how have these students gone about doing this? By being bigger racists than those they condemn, now that’s the true definition of social justice my friends!
