Conservatives have a habit of demonizing every nice thing they come across.

Safe spaces, microaggressions, feminism...

I agree.

Safe spaces, microaggressions, trigger warnings, feminism, equality, fairness, courtesy...

When white people had safe spaces it was a problem

Microaggressions aren't real

Lmao trigger warnings

Modern Feminism is cancer ruined by disgusting fat women, not conservatives

The rest is just you being butthurt

Leftists have a habit of generalisation.

imagine how cumbersome conversation would be if no one was ever allowed to generalize

Mexicans are rapists

Modern Feminism

if you think women deserve as much equality as men do then you are a feminist who gives a shit about ""modern feminism"" which originates from a fringe group

You know exactly what I meant you're just being a pedant because deep down you know I'm right

Yeah women have so much equality in the Middle East

oh I see you hate Muslims too

I don't hate feminism or social justice, I just think this new youth movement under those terms is a joke.

Claiming white people are inherently racist simply because they are white.

Wanting to do away with "western" science because it's "oppressive."

Avoiding having to speak about radical Islam out of some fear of being insensitive, even though Islamic nations are notorious for real oppression against women.

Telling people they can't use a canoe or have dreadlocks because it's "cultural appropriation."

It's completely illogical.

I agree that cultural appropriation is illogical, but I do think that there are inherent racial biases inherent in basically everyone. I think the avenue Q musical was right when it said that everyone is a little bit racist something, we all feel a bit funny when we're around other races. I don't think that it means that everyone is like, a kkk racist, I think that's just a misunderstanding of the people who like to sensationalize and twist what people who say that everyone is racist like to think.

And yeah it's true there's some muslim terrorists, but it's also good to remember that not all muslims are terrorists. That's just common sense, it would make things ridiculous if we started thinking otherwise. It's not being too politically correct or something, it's just having a world view that in line with reality.

To me, racism is defined by hate, not by bias alone.

And no, not all Muslims are terrorists, but that does not make it wise to ignore or withhold the discussion of radicalized Islam.
