Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for October 16, 2016

You’re going to have to go out in the real world someday.

Its the macro aggressions I see as dangerous and if they are ignored, you will have a terrible surprise.

Men still rule, denigrating the strong is required, denigrating the weak is just mean and ultimately evil.

Now aggressors have a place where they know they can find victims.

Isn’t that just ‘locker room banter’, and therefore harmless?

I have a teen daughter college freshman, so I get it. Too bad it isn’t funny, but not all comic strips are funny.

I weep for the future of this country.

Butch up, America!!!!

Hook up?? This is somehow denigrating? I’ve heard both men and women use the term. Are we being facetious here?

I don’t see how suggesting that a quiet sitting-room looks like a good place to meet prospective lovers constitutes aggression. If you’re seeing that as a sign of male aggression then I think you’re suggesting that women don’t have sex-drives and don’t look for lovers, which is in itself an offensive implication.

whitehound, I think it’s meant to be a jab at the stereotypical “dudebros”.

The college I went to (log ago) actually set up a safe room recently when a (female feminist) speaker was saying something that they feared would be not liberal enough. They were afraid that the students would not be able to handle the fact that someone, somewhere on campus, was saying something that might upset them. . They has milk, cookies, coloring books, and puppy videos. Oh, did I mention this was an Ivy League school? I wish I were joking.

This will fail. Someone will eventually realize those being kept out are assorted identifiable groups. Think of the loudest and most sexually explicit groups you have encountered. Some members of those groups will realize you are rejecting their cultures, which is itself an aggression.

There are also issues with people who get mad and are packing some heat on campus. That is also real life. It isn’t always just a verbal or even physical assault that you can recover from. Campus shootings are not going away and how do you think they happen?

What’s a “trigger-free environment”? I don’t know what triggers she’s referring to.

You guys DO know, right? This is just a drawing, a comic, of what goes on? You do know this is sardonic, right? You do know this is a comment, right? Holy COW!

Some of these comments – more cases in point…

I have an idea: bring back fainting couches !!

Please! Life is about saying both yes and no and meaning it. Wisdom is knowing when to say which and satisfaction is knowing you got it right. Hiding from life sucks.

Coloring books and cookies are silly? Sounds like a microagression against childhood. (Tongue in cheek.)

OH Give me a break.

Ooooooh… poor babies! Hurt dere liddle feewings? Oh nol.,.. we can’t do that! Make them think? Oh no… we can’t do dat! Draft them into military service. That’ll knock the baby out of them. Girls too.

This political correctness thing seems to be collecting stupidities like a piece of ABC gum collects dirt and lint,.. Panel 7: It’s not necessary to balance references as 50% his, 50% her, or even to designate the gender of an individual at all; just use the pronoun “they”.

Well, I for one believe them. There was a witness. I heard him on tape, repeatedly. And he swears he never lies. So, who ya gonna believe, donald trump, or a bunch of women who agree with him?

I just came to see if the comments section was overflowing with vitriol and such. Just as I suspected… carry on!

I pity these sissified millennials when they hit the real world. Safe space? Try the unemployment line, buttercup.
