Comedian Dave Rubin Drops The Mic On Free Speech, Safe Spaces And Trigger Warnings
TRIGGER WARNING

We’ve had an unusually eventful week on college campuses– stemming from incidents at both Yale University and The University of Missouri. Each school has a student body that is divided over a number of issues, including the fundamental rights of free speech.
Weighing in now is comedian Dave Rubin with some interesting thoughts about the importance of free speech on college campuses:
“This is the inherent flaw of identity politics that the regressives love so much. When you whittle us all down to race, religion, nationality, sexuality or whatever else there is, there is very little left to unite us. I’d much rather look at people based on their ideas and beliefs, those are the principles that unite us across the divide that the regressive left has been digging.”
This is a very important issue today. Regardless of your politics, hopefully people can identify the problem with the echo chambers that exists when discourse is silenced. It is, as Rubin says, regressive, not progressive..

9 years ago at 2:32 pmThere should be a trigger warning at the beginning of every Steveholt article.
9 years ago at 2:25 pm“The road to hell is paved with good intentions.” Great line. Liberalism may have good intentions, but always ends in bad results.
9 years ago at 2:51 pmIt’s not about good intentions. It’s about gaining and maintaining power.
9 years ago at 3:01 pmOn second thought, you’re right. It’s all about power.
9 years ago at 3:28 pmI don’t think they’re capable of that deep of thinking
9 years ago at 3:51 pmI’m not sure they’re capable of thinking at all
9 years ago at 3:18 amI think the higher-ups are about maintaining power. Their followers have good intentions, but they are being led by people who do not
9 years ago at 5:33 pmTheir intentions are fairly questionable
9 years ago at 3:02 pmProposed Amendment 28: Freedom to scissor kick SteveHolt in the nads so he can’t reproduce.
9 years ago at 2:53 pmThe Steve hate remains, but his articles have been somewhat decent lately
9 years ago at 3:10 pmHey Steve, first off, fuck you. Second, your articles have gotten better.
9 years ago at 3:25 pmSteveholt would be the one to use trigger warnings.
9 years ago at 6:17 pmGod what a fucking bigot, I’m hunger striking until he declares his level headed privilege and retires as a comedian.
