When did we as a society put such importance on feelings?

Just because something offends someone, it doesn't justify real-life ramifications like destruction of property or loss of livelihood.

Why are we so afraid of hearing a different opinion?

Apparently the psyche of this modern generation is so fragile, all opinions that upset them must be quelled?

When we allowed feminism to infect our institutions.

I agree, I've posted about that before.

Sometimes people need to be told that they're acting like idiots, and we're too scared now to speak up.

When parents changed their role from raising resilient children to protecting and coddling them. If you can't give a championship trophy to the best team you dam sure can't call a kid a mean name. If I ran home and told my dad that some n-hood kids said mean stuff to me, he'd look at me like I had 3 heads. Things are just different today....we're raising a bunch of pu$$ies

When parents stopped parenting their children and left if up to schools.

When we started viewing everything thru the lens of the Feminine.

Since they couldn't win a logical argument. If you base arguments on feelings then there is no argument you won't win.

Kids need to learn to stand up for themselves instead of running to someone in authority to protect them... Once we took the prospect of a bloody nose off the playground, we began the pussification of this country...

We didn't. It began when the Democrats slipped the "Gay is ok" clause into normal society. They just want to be recognized, that's all. Well, it's 20years later and here we are.

*Disclaimer*
I'm not disparaging gays. Im saying the Democrats hijacked the gay movement and sodomized it for their own benefit.

And the shites that deserved a bloody nose became insufferable. Then they grew up. Then they starting throwing bricks and burning cars.

Started to gain traction around 1950 when Horkheimer's epochal new behavioral-modification technique - Sensitivity Training - began to find its way into just about all of our critical institutions.

It's currently referred to as P.C. Misnamed because it involves considerably more than just "politics."

He must've believed that a society thoroughly conditioned in it was integral to and a key step toward realizing the revised marxian/Freudian ideal of "universal egalitarianism."

It still has taken almost 3 generations for it to achieve the current grip it has on the society.
