When Powers argued that speech should be protected because by itself it is never dangerous, Kohn countered by saying Powers failed to recognize her white privilege. Speech that seems harmless to middle or upper-class whites, she said, could be deeply threatening to poor and non-white communities. If somebody claims to feel certain speech is unsafe, Kohn said, they should be believed.
"Feelings are valid," she said, according to Stroup. "I'm never going to argue with people's feelings." Kohn also said it's a good thing if conservatives feel unable to express their views for fear of encountering hostility from their peers or professors.

Oh I remember that..and CNN has the gall to mention Saddam Husein when they talk about how Trump hates the media..when CNN was kissing Hussein’s ass every second of everyday
Why we must not allow...
Metaphysical news flash. Who’s this we, paleface? It’s God who permits or allows.
forbids or allows
Yes we can't tolerate obstruction, can we.
Well then,
Just checking!
I had hair longer than that 5 minutes after I was born...and I’m a guy.
“...encountering hostility from their peers or professors...”
This shit won’t stop until we just say “Bring it”.
The Progressives’ view of wanting to censor conservatives is no surprise. They are the same people who say that they must NOT “tolerate intolerance,’ which means that it is okay for them to be intolerant of us. Of course, they never see that the same standard could be applied to themselves. Leftists are perhaps the most intolerant, and least self-aware, people in the world.
Powers is drop dead gorgeous, She has too much class for CNN and belongs back on Fox.
Of course He does-we are the ones who are tasked with guarding the liberties we have been given.
Deplorables. They don’t belong among our diverse angel children on college campuses.
Hmm. When I was at college, there was a periodicals room in the library with just about every periodical written. I found The Klansman there, picked it up, started to read, and nearly ripped it to shreds. Then I realized why it was there, to show us. Left it there.
The one article I read was exhorting the readers NOT to send their kids to college, where their children would be mixing in with [horrible word for blacks] and [horrible word for Jews]. I didn’t know in my lifetime colleges themselves would become as closed minded as the Klan.
Years ago she was a talking head on FNC. The first few times I saw her she was wearing almost no makeup. Scared the crap out of me!
Sally Kohn is why we have a 2nd Amendment—to protect the 1st.
Thank you for the laugh.
As an aside, why can’t Hollywood make movies like that anymore? You know, movies with the primary purpose of entertainment?
Yep.
I would also suggest that the “Left” puts up this facade because they are fundamentally insecure and are attacking their own demons.
They are desperately trying to find salvation for themselves by forcing others into their mindless group think.
It’s sad, but it has also been working.
Wait a tic - I’ve just discovered that I have this ginormous “white, male privilege” thing that’s supposedly frighteningly powerful and influential and now they want to take it way from me?
Screw that!
Sally Sasquatch is creature of Soros, bought and paid foor..
Inasmuch as we have a real, and not egotistically imagined, role. We can not quite say “God helps those who help themselves” because they may be going down quite a wrong road while attempting to “help themselves” and then they will fail.
