Essentially, yes.Layer upon layer of liberal nuttery built up for a result like this. Kind of like the formation of a pearl, but one that is made of microlayers of shit.
They have been very patient over the last couple of decades, constantly pounding away, making more and more people afraid to say what they think, making more and more people hyper-sensitive to the slightest "micro-aggression" (and there has never been a more appropriate term), looking for every last opportunity to scream, put their targets on the defensive, and control the language.
So now, here we are. Campus Bias Response teams to shelter the brittle "feelings" of our little snowflakes. Had we predicted this ten years ago, we'd be laughed out of the conversation.
Enjoy.

It has to be a consistent, full-out assault or it's not nearly as effective. They want everyone, everywhere, at every moment to feel they'd better watch what they say or else.Essentially, yes.Layer upon layer of liberal nuttery built up for a result like this.

Yep, the fruits of creeping gradualism in full view.
Worst part is that this is not an isolated case. It's how they operate across the board. They're not satisfied until whatever their cause dujour is has achieved full retard status, and even then it's not enough.
Holy crap, I was going through some of the horrific offenses being perpetrated on our gentle snowflakes here http://uodos.uoregon.edu/Portals/0/BRT/Annual Report 2014-2015.pdf, and I was almost brought to tears.

This is just wonderful.Political Correctness is getting more and more bizarre: On a College Campus? Don’t Try to Tell a Joke
In the ongoing and aggressive effort to protect the feelings of our helpless and put-upon college snowflakes, colleges are creating Bias Response Teams (think of them as PC SWAT units) to jump into action when a student reports being offended.
The BRT at the University of Oregon, for example, proudly lists a couple of examples of how it has rushed in to save, at the very last moment, the feelings and self esteem of a couple of tragic victims:
“A student reported that a professor wrote an insulting comment on their online blog,” according to the case files of the BRT at the University of Oregon. “[We] met with the reporter, and a BRT Case Manager held a professional development conversation with the professor.”
In another case, “a student reported that a sign encouraging cleaning up after oneself was sexist. A BRT Manager followed up to ensure the sign was removed.”
A staff member who made a “culturally insensitive remark” was reported to the dean of students.
Below is the flowchart used by the University of Oregon BRT to address the dangerous flood of free expression that is so damaging the psyches of our barely-out-of-diapers children.
From the piece:
Which is not to say that rude and hostile students should live free of consequences. By all means, let their friends and neighbors shame them. It may even be appropriate to teach them to change their views. But the right place for such an undertaking is the classroom, and the correct educational vehicle is the professor. When professors are free to criticize their students, and students are free to defend themselves, a beneficial exchange of ideas can take place. Everybody walks away better informed.
The anti-bias bureaucracies are an entirely different animal, since their authority stems from the university administration itself. Students who are called before a bias tribunal are at an enormous disadvantage, and will feel like their continued enrollment requires deference to the authority figures.
And while some students doubtlessly say some awful things that merit an administrative response, others seem like clear victims of an ideologically -motivated campaign of silencing. A campus where students live in constant fear of becoming the subjects of formal complaints—where everyone is encouraged to collect information on each other and turn it over to the authorities—is not a healthy community. It’s 1984.

There is none important item missing from these kid's upbringing. A good swift kick in the ass.We need to be careful with these college students of today, they are fragile beings and can break easily.
Only a true believing far left wing moon bat would ascribe to this deplorable behavior.All of this outrage is nice. And...all of the hand wringing about how our young people are not being prepared for life is riveting. But...it's all weak sauce when it comes to reality.
Here is an opposing point of view. Maybe reading this will lower your blood pressure a bit.
Has political correctness really ‘run amok’ on college campuses?

Because this is the reality this generation presents.I wonder what it is that triggers some people to hop on this bandwagon? Why is it that some people are so eager to buy into any theory that tells them that our greatest asset....our young people....are incompetent, easily bruised, losers?
Why do some people ignore all of the evidence that tells them that our young people are incredibly capable, enlightened and poised to take their place in society?
Any thoughts on what causes this behavior, Mac?
The response is typical lib.Only a true believing far left wing moon bat would ascribe to this deplorable behavior.All of this outrage is nice. And...all of the hand wringing about how our young people are not being prepared for life is riveting. But...it's all weak sauce when it comes to reality.

Derrrrrrr. Otaaayyyyyy!
looks like you company is in need of a serious house cleaning...Imagine when the Managers have to retrain the snowflake because they are incapable of performing the required tasks that they were hired for in the first place.
Then the demand for a safe space takes precedence over performance.
They already do. I deal with a slew of 24-28 year old "engineers" at work. I (a Maps & Records Tech) now have to do 50-60% of their work because they are unable to do it themselves. Anything they prove to be incapable of handling gets dumped on my department because we have a core group that's been here long enough to know how to get things done. Yet I don't get an additional portion in my paycheck.
Depends on the type of law one wishes to practice. Trail lawyers get the worst rap.We have a glut of Lawyers. The numbers have dropped 7%. Pretty soon they're going to just be suing each other.I think some good advice for kids entering college is to go into law.What's the stock value for Kimberly Clark.Holy crap, I was going through some of the horrific offenses being perpetrated on our gentle snowflakes here http://uodos.uoregon.edu/Portals/0/BRT/Annual Report 2014-2015.pdf, and I was almost brought to tears.
Examples:
When these snowflakes hit the real world there is going to be a rush to the aisles for Depends.
These delicate snowflakes will be filing so many lawsuits in the future there won't be enough lawyers. Whenever they think they're being slighted the shit will hit the fan.
My youngest daughter starts college in the fall, majoring in biomedical engineering. Maybe she should re-think that.

Your daughter shouldn't rethink her choice. She should proceed and keep her mind on her career.
I am an incredibly nasty person. I tone it down here normally if I say something it will be cruel, insulting or humiliating. In order to spare the feelings of total strangers, I will often say nothing. When addressed, I will likely walk away saying nothing. If asked to give ten references, I could possibly come up with one. I have always moved with regularity so never had to extend myself to make friends. As a kid I fought with everyone until they learned to stay away from me.I'm an incredibly shy person and b/c of that I know only a few people.Even trying to stay out of their way can get a student reported for purposeful avoidance.
I was asked to list 10 references, 3 were family b/c I ran out of people I would call actual friends.
moved a lot, so I was constantly the knew kid, so you either avoided people or fought.
These snowflakes would have had me in front of a tribunal, getting judged and re-educated.
How do you make it ok to torment a person that wants to be left alone?
Wiht that one report, I can say this. I would not last a week on that campus.Even trying to stay out of their way can get a student reported for purposeful avoidance.
The indian wars or the revolution doesn't count?Southeast Asia was a deadly theater. In all reality, it was the first war Americans faced where guerrilla warfare was the rule of the day.
Charlie did not play by the rules of civilized warfare. They were a vicious and cunning enemy.
I'm a fairly nice person. I interact with the public in people's homes every day. So it's difficult for me to ignore the utter stupidity of some people. I just flip a switch, become the ultimate in diplomacy and move on. Even if a customer becomes unreasonable, I just let it roll off my back and work with them. After all its their home. I respect that.I am an incredibly nasty person. I tone it down here normally if I say something it will be cruel, insulting or humiliating.

Purposeful avoidance is my way of being sociable.

I'd say we're damn near there.
