Snowflakes and Snowstorms; FB post

There's a word that's getting popular on college campuses - "Microaggression". Saying "Freshmen" instead of "First Year Student" is considered an act of microaggression. The existence of "men" in the term "freshmen" is "potentially insulting and degrading due to gender issues." I saw one young lady who considered free speech advocates to be "suspect", because, in her words, "Free speech ENABLES hate speech."

Eventually, the right to free speech will be next to non-existent, due to the over-sensitive, as well as the under-sensitive. Those on the far right never liked the idea of free speech OR the theory of rights. Those on the far left are only just beginning to catch up to their "opponents" on the far right. Political theorists are now advancing the idea that politics has really never been about left and right, but is actually more of a vicious circle. ie: Go far enough Left, you arrive at Right. I talk with far-left "progressive" liberals all the time, and virtually none of them will have a single negative thing to say about Lenin, Stalin, or Mao. But just mention Shitler, well, they're on board when it comes to how evil he was. Let's just conveniently forget how many millions died because of Stalin. Oh, and he wasn't the "right" kind of communist anyway. Soon, the "right" kind of radical socialists will be in charge, and then everyone will sit down and hold hands. Yeah. I got some land in Siberia I'd like to sell you.


The favorite mudslinging term used by the new liberals is "fascist". Just call someone who disagrees with you a fascist, and you'll have plenty of pats on the back and you'll be able to feel really good about yourself - UNTIL you grow up, gain a modicum of wisdom, and understand that you were a budding fascist yourself.
