I don't know why I remember this, but I remember one Christmas when I was a kid (maybe 10-11 yrs old), like every year I had gone to my dad's side of the family for Christmas dinner.. On that side of the family I have 3 cousins, all are much older than I, the youngest is 16 years older. Anyway, I think it was the 2nd oldest cousin.. His kid was doing something and his mother told him "I am going to put you in time out".

When we left, my mom said to my daddy "I never heard of parents punishing their kids and calling it time out" and my dad was like "yeah, evidently the new thing is worrying about the kid's feelings, if you ask me all that will do is make kids think they are more important than they really are. Kids from here on out will have a hard time when they become adults".. This might have been late 80s, early 90s.. I guess he was right, but that's pretty much the problem. Everyone thinks what they have to say is important to the world and people feel we must address everyone's problems, so if someone is offended by something then we have to fix that problem so they are no longer offended.

There are no more "get over it son, the real world don't care what you think" type parents.

shut the frick up.

I think we've reached a point where whining about the existence of SJWs is as popular as actually being an SJW. Relax, move away from the keyboard, and realize that most people are not like that.

This is a lazy argument. It infers that you can't call out any others idiocy because you would then devolve into their same idiocy.

If that were the case we should all just shut up and let the inmates run the asylum. I, on the other hand, like to call out idiocy when I see it.

idk but this country was greater when the majority just laughed at the stupid shite the minority bitched about...now we cower down to all their demands

Don't worry the majority still rules the media. That's why no one reported the flooding in Louisiana and that's why Kim Kardashian is more important than Middle East ceasefires.

The minority has a small voice but every now and then, it gets heard.
