All the old, enlightened means of discussion and analysis —from due process to scientific method — are dismissed as being blind to emotional concerns and therefore unfairly skewed toward the interest of straight white males.
All that matters is that people are allowed to speak, that their narratives are accepted without question, and that the bad feelings go away.
All about the feelers these days.

To summarize:
The modern progressive movement has jumped the shark and has entered the land of lunacy where even their own ideologically affiliated academic teachers are fair game to be sacrificed at the social justice altar of political correctness.
The "silent majority" is growing weary of their BS and will push their shite in by turning out in force in the next election to drive the harlot back into the pits of hell from whence it came.

2009, the subject of my student's complaint was my supposed ideology. I was communistical, the student felt, and everyone knows that communisticism is wrong. That was, at best, a debatable assertion. And as I was allowed to rebut it, the complaint was dismissed with prejudice. I didn't hesitate to reuse that same video in later semesters, and the student's complaint had no impact on my performance evaluations.
In 2015, such a complaint would not be delivered in such a fashion. Instead of focusing on the rightness or wrongness (or even acceptability) of the materials we reviewed in class, the complaint would center solely on how my teaching affected the student's emotional state. As I cannot speak to the emotions of my students, I could not mount a defense about the acceptability of my instruction. And if I responded in any way other than apologizing and changing the materials we reviewed in class, professional consequences would likely follow.
Communisticism?

communisticism did he just make his word up? Can't find either usage he makes in any dictionary.

Don't sell the house and bet the farm. They always have the trump card in "Vote for us, we will give you free shite"

I know. But there will be far more voters get off their apathetic asses that sat home in 12. And BO won because he got over 90% of the black vote. A large % of black men who voted for BO because of his race will not vote for HC because she is a woman. They will either sit it out or give HC's opponent their vote. Probably the former because they would rather sit it out than to push the R button. Either way, it hurts HC. HC is going to get slaughtered in the debates and again in the GE.
