Even these guys are free to wear their "hats."


What was that about a "free country?"


So you refer to people simply commenting on a college class as triggered, but a woman screaming at a man in a public setting about his hat, and then complaining nobody joined her, is just expressing an opinion that's rudely presented?

Your thinking is so off that it's laughable.

My sense is that you're not laughing.

And my posts bother you.

White guys in America whining about how tough they've got it.

Now, that's laughable.

Like their whiteness is what's causing them grief.

Whether or not it’s an appropriate title for a course can be debated, but it’s a pretty basic fact that we have a lot of angry unproductive white males in this country right now. What to do about that is a hard question.

They don’t seem to want career retraining, they seem enchanted with the protectionist approach to try and shut down global free trade but that’s a losing battle, and the coming efficiency gains from automation is only going to make their situation worse.

Leftists are flummoxed that being called a racist makes people angry instead of making them roll over and beg forgiveness. Turns out Alinsky was wrong about ridicule. So now leftist simpletons need a class. LOL.

Don't forget the discrimination-industrial-complex. There's a whole market of people and corporations to accuse of discrimination for a living.

You have no credibility and your posts are ridiculous. Why would they bother me? Making such a statement is simply a deflection because you cannot defend your hypocritical flights of fantasy.

You would never go into a thread where minorities are commenting on something and state they're whining or that they're triggered.

You have an agenda and that's obvious. I'm merely pointing that out.

If you're a public university that wants to encourage a diverse student body or appear to do so, this is how you do it.

Because they know it's only a matter of time before student loans are foregiven and college is made free.

It's not just white males affected by that so why only target them. There are a lot of angry people in general.
