Yeah, that's EXACTLY what he's talking about.
And I don't care what they were arguing about, since when is screaming "SHUT UP" in someone's face acceptable behavior?
But again, these are Yalie's we're talking about. If this was joe average acting that way in public, they'd be ridiculed, and probably considered in need of anger management consuling..

Are you talking about when that one university person sent an email saying the costume thing wasn't that big a deal then a whole bunch of super PC students demanded she be fired? That was ****ing ridiculous.That incident is the epitome of self-important, self-righteous, whiny, entitled little bitches who think that if someone disagrees with their Social Justice Warrior bullshit, they must be fired and publicly ostracized. They are literally demanding somebody lose their job and living because they aren't pro-censorship enough for their tastes.
Anyone who tries to defend that ignorant bullshit needs to ****in get a reality check.
Like, I'm a liberal... but shit lol. This sjw/pc shit goes waaaay too ****in far sometimes.
i'm damn happy a liberal sees it this way. i haven't talked to one yet that does

Here it is for those who haven't seen it. Or those who just want to lose all faith in humanity, either way here is the clip:
Gosh, these poor American millenials. How could I of ever suggested they don't have it hard?
My favorite part is this she-witch shouting "you should not sleep at night". I know right? I too am kept up at night about Halloween costumes and if grown ass adults can or can't handle them.
Just I think people of this generation create problems where there aren't problems. Look at this college chick and the bullshit she spouts:
She gets on him for referring to women as "lady's". That is not me joking, it's a legit thing this woman whined about.
I just wish the AWESOME way this guy handles this woman is the way we would handle every single whiny entitled brat making a mountain out of a molehill.
This is an interesting article from the perspective of a self-described "radical leftist" who dislikes the notion of safe spaces.
Here's the heart of the article:
But what myself and many others are seeing is the shutting off of dialogue entirely, for the purpose of “safety”. What could possibly be safe about censorship? What could possibly be safe about a group of people who claim to be freedom fighters dictating who can speak and what can be said, based on whether or not we agree with them? Study any kind of world history and you will find that censorship has never been on the right side of it.More to the point, the world is not a safe place. It is extremely dangerous, flawed, full of bloodshed and corruption. By sheltering ourselves from its harshness we are doing nothing meaningful to change it. If we are serious about confronting power we must throw ourselves into the danger and hurt that so many people have no choice but to live with. While self-care is necessary to sustain us in the long run, avoiding the darkness entirely is nothing more than a cop out.
Folks, do the world a favour…stop with the safe spaces and trigger warnings, and get serious about changing the world. It is not always going to be fun and pleasant. We are not always going to feel liberated. It is going to hurt. It is going to scare the shit out of us at times. But if the struggle is worth it to you, if activism is not just a trendy thing for you to be involved with so you can convince yourself that you’re not complacent in injustices, then you will step out of your comfort zone and finally understand that comfort is in itself a sign of the power and privilege you wish to challenge.
