Same thing happened to some college president. Maher was talking about it. She had to apologize.
There's some fucked up people out there. So tolerant that saying every life matters is considered offensive.

...people are idiots.

At least you're seeing reason on this one.

Been sitting on the last wheel of time book for years now.

Getting taken down on teh youtubes. Came with the special edition of Dancing all Night apparently.

You edit that title to say 'Good news everyone!'
Sep7 rules state you never miss a Farnsworth reference.

But ye again its literally game exclusive.
If you want teh gay you buy the Conquest / Black edition (and side with the euroblades)
If you want teh yuri you buy the Birthright / White edition (and side with the japs)

But they did a decent job of balancing out the stat bonus vs having super kids thing imo.

    How dare someone say America is a land of opportunity

But this isn't the land of opportunity. Not anymore, at least.

This is just stupid.

because maybe we shouldn't keep pretending that America is #1 at everything?

Land of opportunity = #1 at everything
kk

You're right I can see how that should be forbidden now.

then you respond with "...no, like...where are you from" is just a shitty thing to do.

See now you're adding more caveats that aren't there. With these rules a professor can not even ask a foreign exchange student which country they are from.

What on earth is so bad about the phrase "the most qualified person should get the job" that it can never be uttered.

What am I sensationalizing exactly? I'm merely pointing out nonsensical hypersensitivity where I see it.

Tbh now that you mention it tho, I kinda find your differing view points to be kinda offensive as well. So if you could please stop disagreeing with me and recognize my feelings I'd appreciate that. You're being very disrespectful to my race and gender.

The problem is that there's nearly nothing from a relatively-objective source on it

http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2015/jun/19/university-california-microaggression-faculty/
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/06/15/calling-america-land-opportunity-offensive-university-california-warns/
http://www.city-journal.org/2014/24_4_racial-microaggression.html

linking the actual literature on the subject explains why they're pursuing this a lot better

http://www.ucop.edu/academic-personnel-programs/_files/seminars/Tool_Recognizing_Microaggressions.pdf

All for more views and info, but you linked fox news there. Not sure that passes the conservative nutjob meh test tbh.

Its pretty obvious why they're pursuing this.

They're pursuing this because "maybe don't say shit to people that makes them feel shitty" is something we could generally all adopt.

Cuz asking someone where they're from, and saying the most qualified person should get the job is such a shitty thing to do. How offensive.

How dare someone say America is a land of opportunity. Don't they know people have feelings?

For those of you who aren't in California, please note that the University of California schools are not the only universities in California - there's only 10 UC schools. The rest are either California State schools or private schools.

edit: oh, this is some rightwingnut blog. meh.

Assumed the system explanation was well known. Probably should have added that just in case. Thx.

As for the edit: Guess if something comes from a conservative site that means it can safely be ignored. Whew. Glad I don't need to do any critical thinking here then.

well when you have to put "right-minded" in your site's header, it's pretty safe to understand their position.

Which is? How is that relevant to the story? Does them being conservative make what the schools are doing ok?

I tend to be progressive leaning, but I really don't understand tribalism for the sake of tribalism.

“America is the land of opportunity,” “There is only one race, the human race” and “I believe the most qualified person should get the job” are among a long list of alleged microaggressions faculty leaders of the University of California system have been instructed not to say.

These so-called microaggressions – considered examples of subconscious racism – were presented at faculty leader training sessions held throughout the 2014-15 school year at nine of the 10 UC campuses. The sessions, an initiative of UC President Janet Napolitano, aim to teach how to avoid offending students and peers, as well as how to hire a more diverse faculty.

Other sayings deemed unacceptable include:

● “Everyone can succeed in this society, if they work hard enough.”

● “Where are you from or where were you born?”

● “Affirmative action is racist.”

● “When I look at you, I don’t see color.”
