    A bit of a rant so bare with me...

    I think this speaks more to our societies inability to deal with trauma. This is the defense mechanism they developed along with their peers to deal with trauma they either directly experienced or experience through media or socialization. We can logically make the distinction that what we view online is not happening to us, but sometimes our bodies can't. We make associations on what is a threat and adapt to perceive similar events or groups as threats. Just look at how some of these SJW react when they confront their perceived enemies. Trauma causes us to react in irrational and sometimes violent ways.

    They choose to deal with it through suppressing anything that would spark a memory of traumatic experiences. They're not dealing, they simply masking it, and it will blow at the slightest reminder of their past experience.

    We evolved to deal with trauma through social circles. I think what we're seeing is our organism evolving to deal with a new reality of social bonding in an era of global communication. An era where were our habits as individuals are no longer bound to assimilate with the tribe. We can now find likeminded peers anywhere in the world, and all their healthy and unhealthy ways of dealing with experiences.

    School administrators that are kow-towing to the student body complaints don't give two shits about these kids. Colleges and Universities are for profit businesses that are not there to prepare humans for life in the work force, professionally, psychically or psychologically. They are there to make money.
