ya same

Agreed. I've been in shock since 2016.

It's actually gotten in the way of work.

And as much as a shock as 2016 was to me, the response has been far scarier.

shit, i started seeing this shit in the ether back as early as 2010, but i kept trying to ignore it

Same.

hell probably earlier than that if im honest

I actually trace it back to atleast the 90s.

Really the 60s.

ya, back as early as the first censorship stuff

i remember the cartoon mob back in those days

Alot of the social justice and weird multicultural globalism stuff I think is a direct result of the culture war in the 90s.

There was a pushback to "multiculturalism" then.

It retreated, but successfully took over the academies.

yep, but it came back stronger than ever thanks to groupthink of socialmedia

And kicked out people like Alan Bloom who were calling it out.

the 90s were even the rise of "political correctness" as a term.

it was

People were being effectively silenced then.

i remember the first time i heard that shit

I actually don't think it was social media.

i was like

well i dont want to be political

so i know im not going to be correct

so fuck all that noise

I think it was more of a generational shift due to academia being so far left.

lol

Yeah, and that's the *big* mistake I think alot of us tend to make.

Turn the other cheek too long.

you are probably right to a degree pratel

And don't organize to fight.

once it was being taught at kindergarten

Whereas the left, and the far left in particular, does it instinctively.

it gets engrained in them

those kids want to suck off the teete forever

It's more than that.

ya i know

i just like to break it down to my simple folk terms lol

If you are taught that capitalism is evil and soft socialism is good for your whole life. Would you listen to some hack on the radio saying it's actually a good system?

ya i know

i had to literally debrainwash myself
