Woke Trigger Warnings

Back in 2013, campus activists started demanding the policing of speech. They pushed to ban “microaggressions” (words or phrases that may offend certain minorities often unintentionally) and demanded “trigger warnings” before professors assigned certain controversial reading materials. Recently, the Prevention, Advocacy & Resource Center (PARC) at Brandeis University released a new list of verboten words and phrases — and “trigger warning” itself has been cancelled, along with words like “victim,” “addict,” “survivor,” “tribe,” “picnic,” and even the phrase “people of colour.” What the hell is going on? And where is this crap leading us?
