That is what I think and it's why I take issue with the simplified logic of "every generation thought the previous one was bad!".
We see the failures of that. Past generations thought Dungeons and Dragons was evil. Then it was porn then video games. Oh and music at one time. We see in hindsight yeah those weren't the scares they were made out to be.
Yet this SJW shit...take a look at what is going on in Europe right now lol. It's not nothing. It's not an unfounded worry. This is not equivalent to people shaking their fist at some pot smoking teens and thinking the future is in trouble.

Wasn't intended as a personal dig. It just helped to make my point. I could have chosen about 80% of the threads in this subforum these days. That just happened to be one that I remembered off the top of my head.
People didn't get upset about trivial things?! My point isn't that we're only now just seeing it, my point is that your fixation has made you myopic. It's different issues in different eras, but the same tendencies.
I believe Surt's point is that he thinks it's happening more often these days and the times it does happen, more people are involved.

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.
Well, if you weren't pretending to be ignorant, the points I literally paraphrased straight from the first few paragraphs of the article on CNN should have been your first clue.
If you were any good at this adult talking stuff, you'd abandon this clearly dishonest path you're taking to try and futility discredit my point that, yes, CNN really really did post some shit that would be racist as f*ck if it was about Obama (and people did say the same things about Obama and it was called racist, then).
Here's the only correct path you could have taken to try and debate against my point:
That was an opinion piece by CNN and does not reflect CNN's official opinion on President Trump. That would be correct.
Neither.
Fair Tax but where each household starts the year with a credit. For example, 4 family household starts the year with...I don't know...$26,700 in a tax credit. They are literally give a check for that. It's supposed to be based off of the FPL which I don't know the numbers directly off the top of my head. Then the beginning of the year tax credit is calculated by a coefficent of the FPL (something like 2x or 3x). This credit is being called a "rebate."
You're not going to provide anything that mirrors what is going on today. I get it. Moving on. Since nobody said people didn't upset about trivial things. Nobody. This is the scale and the LEVEL of outrage.
3 day leadership conference cancelled cuz students saw a banana peel in a tree.
