Hallowthis is what dont get. like why are people so fucking triggered (ironic yeah) by these sjws and tumblr and shit? they're a vocal minority with minor impact on any real world politics, or real life in general really. just let them be, or try to reason with them idk but this senseless bashing seems like a waste of everyones time
These ideas do have real world consequences. It may not seem like a big deal to you because it happens so gradually but these ideas direct our cultural values towards a society of weak, self-righteous, professional victims. If you view society as an organism then it would appear as cancer spreading and you are saying we should not take steps to eliminate it. It's the exact position they hope you'd take so they don't have to risk their worldview being shattered into a million pieces and can further propagate their nonsense onto the impressionable. We are on ideological battle grounds.
"Without debate, without criticism, no Administration and no country can succeed-- and no republic can survive. That is why the Athenian lawmaker Solon decreed it a crime for any citizen to shrink from controversy. And that is why our press was protected by the First Amendment-- the only business in America specifically protected by the Constitution-- not primarily to amuse and entertain, not to emphasize the trivial and sentimental, not to simply "give the public what it wants"--but to inform, to arouse, to reflect, to state our dangers and our opportunities, to indicate our crises and our choices, to lead, mold educate and sometimes even anger public opinion."-- John F. Kennedy
