I was reading the story about Evergreen State College and the professor, who himself is a leftist, and how he's now being labeled a racist because he disagreed with some "Day of Absence" bullshite. They wanted all white people to leave for the day.

Anyway, have we reached the point where being labeled means nothing? Holy shite some of left/progressives/liberals or whatever the frick they want to label themselves, are fricking insane. If they haven't jumped the shark, then the Fonz on the way, it can't be long.

Most of the lib yards here never saw Fonz jump. More than most just troll and should be ignored.

The extreme left wing are content to beat up moderate lefties.

The SJW mob bully anyone who can be bullied, and that's usually moderate lefties who are too gutless to tell them to go F themselves.

I'd prefer not being called such especially by those who know precious little, if anything, about me.

I have my issues with those who live off the work of others. I have my issues with those who engage in aberrant conduct. I have issues with those who fail to acknowledge that there are differences and they don't necessarily rise to good/bad, right/wrong but simply different.

No. Those words lost meaning and shock value years ago.

They have absolutely no meaning now. Too many times crying "Wolf" has finally bitten the Progressives in the arse.

Students at Evergreen State College in Olympia, who filmed their exploits and posted the videos on social media, have occupied and barricaded the library, shouting down anyone who disagrees with them or shows insufficient passion for racial justice.

Biology professor Bret Weinstein was berated by dozens of students outside of his classroom Tuesday morning for refusing to participate in an event in which white people were invited to leave campus for a day. Now, he says police have told him to hold his classes off campus due to safety concerns.

Things are “out of control at Evergreen,” he said.

“Police told me protesters stopped cars yesterday, demanding information about occupants,” Mr. Weinstein told The Washington Times. “They believe I was being sought. It appears that the campus has been under the effective control of protesters since 9:30 a.m. Tuesday. Police are on lockdown, hamstrung by the college administration.


Remember when Reagan fired the air-traffic controllers?

I wish colleges had an executive order to expell all these people so paying students can get back to class and get a degree?

They're insane, with no consideration for others, I think that is the most understated thing about these people. They're inconsiderate, and believe they're entitled to everything they want, without question. They'll interrupt while driving, flying, school, work, shopping, whatever, doesn't matter. frick these people. If want to protest, or whatever the frick you think you're doing, have at it, but when you start messing with people's lives, that's crossing a line.

There's seldom any consequences for these fricks. And this isn't a generational thing, these people are young, middle age & old. It's a mindset, and a dangerous one.

Safe spaces? Get the frick out of here. Are you fricking serious? Safe spaces?

Only as far as consequences go. Meaning liberals can use those terms and have you fired from your job and have you ostracize from the community even if it's not true

It means you just won the argument you were having with a liberal. Wear the labels with pride.

Don't bother wasting time over what other people think. It's not worth the stress and heartache. Be yourself. Live your life. Have a ball and frick everyone else.

It has nowhere near the punch it had a decade ago.

I agree 100% with your advice. My only point of contention with these people is that they interrupt/make more difficult for people not involved. May it be a missed flight, blocking a road, or anything else that impedes everyday life.

Improper usage of words waters down their meaning. Those words don't really mean much any more because they are used to attack political or ideological enemies rather than to address real social issues.

I think they're starting to reform "homophobe" to mean you're afraid to have sex with someone of the same sex.
