Forget about Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer.
No more Mark Twain for you, haha.
Oh no! Scarry words ahead.
What a bunch of light weights.
Why should the word never be used in an historical context? Don’t the snowflakes want to learn history? If not, how can they understand the context as to why that word is considered a slur in our time? (Being rhetorical here.)
Nazi?
The Tulsa Squirrel....is a left wing POS paper.
“trigger warning”?! What a bunch of pansies. I can’t even fathom if these same snowflakes were ever exposed to 1% of what kids in the 50’s and before were exposed to.
So it’s probably best to re-write history. Less stressful.
Well except for certain demographic where it’s commonly used. Guess “Stick and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me!” is passe?
If we had the technology to replace that word with clanging church bells every time they are uttered the world would be a better place.
To imagine there is a word that simply cannot be said boggles the mind.
What utter bull crap. These “students” will never grow up enough to be functional out in the real world, thanks to higher education and the cuck professors.
But, that is all part of the plan.
This reminds me of the story of the University of Utah student studying acting who refused to use the F-word in her roles, for religious reasons. She was condemned by the faculty and her fellow students and essentially kicked out of the program.
Forget about historical documents. You can find that word all over the Rap scene.
niggardly?
How dumb!! and in a so called intellectual setting.
We need an honest national discussion on what the word “racist” really means. What is the definition?
Meanwhile the rap heroes of the Black community use the N word all over their vile tunes.
Every time I go into a grocery store and look at the hanging aisle signs I see one that reads ‘crackers’ and I am offended - who do I complain to about that?
It’s a good thing he didn’t read the lyrics to any number of current Rap “songs”...
The word is ‘nigger’ and I refuse to be censored from using the word. But when black people stop using it in casual conversation then so will I.
Snowflakes
Any college that feels it necessary to issue “trigger warnings” has exposed itself as one that has lowered its standards to such an extent that virtually anyone - to specifically include those who have difficulty reading and understand Dick and Jane books - can enter.
Avoid them at all costs.
Currently, STEM is safe, but the climate change clowns are constantly chipping at the walls.
