Student Grievance: Righting Imaginary Wrongs
June 7, 2017 Daphne Patai   3 Comments

In the persistent demands for submission to the current campus orthodoxy of verbal policing, there is evidently not a shadow of concern for the creation of ethical individuals capable of thinking for themselves. Instead, a distinctly authoritarian streak is proudly proclaimed in the assaults and threats angry students launch at others.

Ironically, the less there is to be angry about, the angrier student agitators get and the more vociferous their demands that the entire university is forced to conform to the particular terms official victim groups prescribe. And since anger, like the alleged pain of triggers and microaggressions, is the new currency of moral righteousness, those around them must genuflect and then rush to appease and heal the supposed wounds.

Liberalism is the philosophy that the glass is always half empty. There are always more and more victims. None of their problems are their own fault....it's always somebody else causing their problems...usually an evil, white person. 
According to liberals, America is an awful racist, sexist, homophobic country  that cannot be redeemed. Unless, of course, liberals are in complete control of everything...including every aspect of your private life.
