Millennial snowflakes: ALL colleges should be “safe spaces”

Millennial SnowflakesRight.  Because Life is just like that — one big Safe Space.

I mean, I was stupid in college.  I was voting Demorat.

But for fuck’s sake, I wasn’t that stupid.

I was taking a full college load and working for four radio stations, was Photo Editor for the college newspaper, woke up at 5 AM and went to bed at 10 or 11 PM.  I paid my tuition, had to buy my own used car in order to get to work.

At my peak I had six jobs, four at radio stations, one at a newspaper, one at the college.  Plus my classes.  I never had a moment to consider protests or safe spaces or microaggressions.  I was too busy worrying about how I would pay for my textbooks.

So I bought used textbooks and then learned: they were already highlighted with the salient points.  They wouldn’t be salient points if they weren’t highlighted, right?

And that’s how I passed college.  Only a portion of my weekends were free.

Student Snowflakes: ALL Universities Should Be Safe Spaces

by Kieran Corcoran

University students are crying out to be swaddled in the cotton wool of trigger warnings and safe spaces, a worrying new survey has found.

Fragile youths also said they love no-platform policies, newspaper bans and knocking down statues to shelter them from controversial or unpleasant ideas.

The sky-high levels of support for thought-policing emerged from a survey of just over 1,000 students in the UK.

How sad is that?

Its findings are also likely to be broadly applicable in the US, where safe space culture originated.

48% of all students surveyed agreed that all universities should have safe space policies to police debate, with only 20% opposing the idea. Women favored safe spaces by a considerable margin.

Women.  Imagine that.  The most emotive and most coddled sex extant — except for trannies, cross-dressers and the rest of the 31 flavors.

The survey, conducted by the Higher Education Policy Institute (HEPI) also showed that students are terrified of being triggered, with 68% backing their use.

Such policies are already having absurd results. A student in Edinburgh was almost ejected from a debate for raising her hand in violation of the safe space policy.

And trigger warning culture has permeated as far as Oxford University law lectures – which students have the option to skip if they find the crimes up for discussion “distressing.

The crimes discussed in a text book are “distressing.”  Such petunias, you are.

Confusingly, the survey found most students pay lip service to free speech – with 60% agreeing universities “should never” limit it.

But in practice many of them turned on a dime to support censorious policies in practice.

NEVER trust Millennials when it comes to their support for our foundational documents.  I am convinced they 1) are not even remotely familiar with the Constitution and Bill of Rights, and 2) frighteningly willing to shed those rights with which they are unfamiliar.

The rights that so many Americans have died for.

NEVER.  TRUST.  MILLENNIALS.

They are “educated.”

But they have not learned.

FBI tells teachers to inform on students who express ‘anti-government’ and ‘anarchist’ political beliefs as high schools are ‘ideal targets’ for extremist recruiters

by Wills Robinson

  • Document urges faculty members to assess behavior of students 

  • They suggest to watch for certain signs, such as tendency toward violence

  • Bureau hopes indications could prevent future terrorist attacks 

  • They believed it would help reduce the number of youngsters joining terrorist or anti-government groups

It would seem to me the real “extremist recruiters” could be some of the teachers already employed in public schools.

The FBI wants teachers to inform on ‘anti-government’ or ‘anarchist’ students.

In a document titled ‘Preventing Violence and Extremism in Schools’, the bureau urges faculty members to assess concerning behavior of schoolchildren as they may be ’embracing extremist ideologies’.

They also list a number of indications, such as violent tendencies, which may be a sign they are planning an attack or may want to join a terrorist group.

Officials then want staff to pass on information to authorities in a bid to prevent any actions which could put others in danger.

In other words, the United States government wants to make an enemy out of me once again — but oddly enough, only during Leftist administrations.  The federal government wants to make an enemy of its soldiers, of those who believe in religion (excepting that of Islam) and those who believe in the Second Amendment.

Obama American CRAZIESThose who cling to their God and guns.  Who believe in the US Constitution.  Who believe in the Bill of Rights.  Who believe in a religion other than Islam.

Second, the US Department of Justice was actually contemplating prosecution of those who deny climate change/global warming.

Seriously.  The actual Obama-sanctioned Belief Police.

AG Lynch Testifies: Justice Dept. Has ‘Discussed’ Civil Legal Action Against Climate Change Deniers

by Jon Street

Attorney General Loretta Lynch testified Wednesday that the Justice Department has “discussed” taking civil legal action against the fossil fuel industry for “denying” the “threat of carbon emissions” when it comes to climate change.

A Democrat asked and was answered:

“My question to you is, other than civil forfeitures and matters attendant to a criminal case, are there other circumstances in which a civil matter under the authority of the Department of Justice has been referred to the FBI?” he asked.

“This matter has been discussed. We have received information about it and have referred it to the FBI to consider whether or not it meets the criteria for which we could take action on,” Lynch answered. “I’m not aware of a civil referral at this time.”

Again, how stupid is the electorate?

Plenty stupid.

Extra crispy stuipid, in fact.  Yes, these stegosaurs actually vote.  Or they could if they were interested, which is an even more frightening prospect.

Of course, support the repeal of the Bill of Rights.  Freedom is so outdated.  Mark Dice proves so and documents his San Diego pier foray on video.

What inveterate morons.  “We live in a different world now.”

We sure as hell do.

The idiocy of Leftists

First, the Tweet:

Second Amendment Tweet From BoukobzaYes ladies and gentlemen, besides being unable to spell, this unknown individual who deserves no more attribution has no idea whatsoever how the world and the nation actually functions and appears to be completely ignorant of our founding documents.

Not that I would expect someone making such ridiculous statements to be other than a fairly recent public school product.
