A Safe Space Society Is
A Totalitarian Nightmare

Dead on. As always.

Read the article and then ask yourself a question: How in the world can these punks get away with all violence they commit? Here's a hint: Their enablers work in the media. Plain and simple.

"they are not engaged in argument. Rather, they simply assert whatever nonsense they believe will increase their own power" Yes. This is also why Republicans have failed. Some Republicans present rational arguments and try to persuade. They think their job is then done. The Left is not listening and simply emotes all over them. Republicans think they are foolish. But emotional outbursts resonate with people. Even rational people think, "They must have a reason to be so upset.". But there doesn't have to be a reason beyond the seeking of power and control and the tendency of groups of people to be emotionally led by their leaders and friends while eschewing rational thought. They become the Mob. As suggested, we need to "discard your bourgeois notions of reason and the presumption of good faith". As Trump has done, we need to relentlessly confront them and label them as "fake", liars. They get angry, up their game, get extreme and careless, and expose themselves. They can't help it because MORE OF THE SAME is all these people have to offer. But reasonable people see them slipping into absurdities and insanities. People watching Schiffty, Nadless, and their parade of dopey bureaucrats and academics and see it. The Republican Congressmen's skillful questioning leads each witless to admit that Trump has done nothing illegal and has stayed within his power as President. They just don't like what he has done. From there, Schiffty and Nadless plow on, oblivious to the reality that they have nothing to work with and that they have done more damage to themselves than Trump. The slavering media, already reduced to a caricature by Trump's relentlessness and certainty of their incompetence and bias, try to set the narrative and fail, again and again because Trump refuses to acquiesce to their labels or be cowed by their stories. Many have been upset by Trump's confrontational ways but it is the ONLY way to challenge an opponent that abandons rationality. Meanwhile, in the background, Trump is rationally getting the People's work done and done VERY well.

Parents, don’t let your children grow up to be college students - 4 years of this Schiff will really Schumer them up.

Wonderful SF story. Jack Williamson. With Folded Hands Describes the peril of total safety. 50 years old and still accurate. In many anthologies.

This modern day thuggery started with occupy wallstreet and escalated to blm and antifa. All embraced by the democrats and Obama, and ignored by the spineless republicans.

I thank God every day that my daughter opted out of college and went to vocational school instead. Thanks for the suggestion, #5. Just bought it on my Kindle app for $2.99.

Great article. This is why I often challenge the notion that the left is hypocritical. If you fall for the notion that they are against prejudice it will seem so. When you grasp that they are all about total power they are quite consistent. The only thing they are consistent on is power. To be all about power necessitates that you dance around all sides of everything else.

Haven't see the film yet, but, much on the to-see radar. Since retirement last year, I tune into Prager's radio show often. What a unique and passionate individual. Indeed, it is very timely that Prager brings attention to our indoctrination centers and the massive brainwashing of our young people that is happening right before our very eyes. Thankfully, all three of our kids went to a local college in Denver that wasn't yet infected by the "insanity and evil".

"Safe Space" is just another means for leftist progs to control opposing speech. Once they're in charge they'll criminalize view that challenge their own.

By declaring "safe spaces" for spoiled brats to throw hateful temper tantrums, you violate the rights of normal citizens to have an intelligent conversation. It is amazing how many "snow flakes" that claim they are too fragile to hear something they disagree with resort to intimidation and violence to oppose it..

I go on liberal sites. Doesn't matter what the topic is but it's mostly politics. I generally disagree with opinions that are posted or the hard left slant of the story. The lack of tolerance is appalling. They are nasty, smug, condescending and verbally violent. And , they gang up on a dissenter. The left that is always telling us, the conservatives to be tolerant , they are anything but.

These things have been going on for a long time, and have certainly reached critical mass. On campus, the Leftists are emboldened, it's their safe space to say whatever they want and get away with it. Last week we had a couple of examples of how academia warped minds think and speak. On campus there have no restrictions, no standards. These institutions are the breeding ground of discontent fomenting anger that may lead to violence. Of course, their political enablers will always blame violence on guns not the thoughts that preempted the act. What is being done to counter this? What are the rights of students and individuals? Why should people pay thousands of dollars to be indoctrinated by Leftists ideology and be subject to an educational lobotomy. The academia industry is one of the biggest scams in our society. President Trump has a lot on of fixing to do on his plate right now. Hopefully in his second term this enormous problem will be one he tackles.

The "safe space" phenomenon reminds me of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. No one dares reveal being a conservative in public. If you do the nearest anti-American alien body will turn toward you with their arms up pointing and screeching at you, with crowds of similar folks converging on you with the same malevolent zeal. It's simply not a safe time to be a conservative anywhere near a liberal setting.

What is missing from all these gloomy predictions is the fact that we are not all sheep. The left views the world through their own associates and friends. They are the sheep of the left. The snowflakes. They think the rest of Americans can be bullied and made afraid, like them. That is one reason they hate President Trump. They actually fear him because he is not a fellow sheep. He fights back. When the confrontations come, the snowflakes will find that lawyers don't make good body armor, nor does everyone fear ANTIFA thugs. We have dealt with far worse and prevailed! The sheep will shocked.

The power-mongering leaders on the left won't listen because they know the truth, but dont care. They simply want power at any cost. Most of the brainwashed lemmings (followers) cannot be reasoned with because many are true-believers who think their leaders are honest and they cannot see the deception. Emotion is a really powerful weapon. I just spent the whole night writing on Facebook to educate misled leftists and TDS sufferers. I only hope I can get a few to think about it.

It is only when I became a freelance consultant and later retired that I started to openly express my Conservative views. Working for a Fortune 50 Hi Tech I knew my safety was in keeping my mouth shut.

Your enemy wants you disarmed.

I love the smell of Schlicter in the morning...

These are no longer institutes of "higher learning," but high-priced indoctrination camps intent on subverting America.

Disagree with them and you will suffer severely. Never wear a MAGA hat or a t-shirt anywhere on amy college campus, in West Hollywood or SFO. If you do make sure your health insurance covers catastrophic injury with a low deductible copay.

Our children are 48 and 50 years old. They went to college at the appropriate age, in a Christian college. They ran into a couple of left leaning individuals, but it wasn’t too bad. They actually got an excellent education, and were able to do very well in graduate school. However, in today’s world, no way would we send them to college. What we would do is to buy a set of THE GREAT BOOKS, and the accompanying course on them, set them in a room, and tell
