It would be nice if the opponents of “political correctness” would identify exactly how their freedom of speech has been illegitimately stifled on college campuses.

Forgive me for being overly suspicious, but: I think their complaint is all about how they can’t harass gay people or non-WASPs any more without getting into trouble & potentially even being expelled. So, it’s interesting in that context that they claim the “politically correct” won’t be allowed to have their “safe spaces” in corporate America, & in many cases, that’s true, but you know what’s true in far more cases? That corporate America doesn’t give a rat’s patootie about your “freedom of speech” & if you go about getting in your colleague’s faces & haranguing them for being gay or non-WASPish, you’ll get disciplined & then fired, & no amount of whining to Generalissimo Trumpolini will change that. So, maybe the REAL snowflakes of the world are the worthless “alt-right” MALES who refuse to grow up.
