The Latest In Idiocy On College Campuses
My little card below was inspired by a student's remark in this video by Reason TV's Zach Weissmuller, "Do College Students Hate Free Speech? Let's Ask Them."
Please buy my book, "Good Manners for Nice People Who Sometimes Say F*ck," here. Only about $11 brand new, and new (not used) copies help support my blogging and other writing.
What's kind of amazing on college campuses -- and in this video -- is how students sound like parrots of the anti-free-speech movement, reciting the narratives. The arguments against free speech (to protect hurt feelz), coming from students attending universities, are pretty shocking.
Generously, one girl says she doesn't think we should send people to prison for saying mean things.
I bet if you asked her if they should be sent to a re-education camp, she'll favor that.

Being a white male, my existence is a microaggression to many, even before I open my mouth.

Micro-aggressions? I'm happy to go for macro.
A colleague and I were shooting the breeze ( she's African-American from Mississippi) and I said something in what could be considered Ebonics ( I wanna ax you a question). While we were laughing, a white female co-worked butted in and aid something about that being offensive. Black colleague sucked her eye tooth, gave white chick a death stare, and remarked "some people just do not have a sense of humor".
What did I say?

Even if I accepted the concept of microaggressions, which I do not, someone needs to tell these dipshit college students that they are not yet experts on anything. They do not decide what a microaggression is.
