My reply to the above meme.
It tells you how coddled and protected these children in adult bodies are today. We gave them participation trophies, and safe spaces.
When it came time for them to put their mark on the world they went out armed with their understanding of virtue signaling, and micro-aggressions and they gave it a go.
How should they leaver their mark?
But wait...
Someone said something I didn't like.
What about my safe space?
Where is Zeus, Athena, or some other God to strike down the offender?
They don't realize that person was named Mom, or Dad and didn't actually properly teach them about reality because they sheltered them in little fantasy land safe spaces.
Now they do everything they can to make that make believe place seem reality when it isn't.
They deny truth and facts they don't like.
They think they are entitled to everything...
They think "where is my participation trophy?"
They are mentally and psychologically immature and they are actively trying to leave their mark on the world.
Dangerous combination...
We need them to stop embracing the concept of safe spaces.
There should be no participation trophies. In reality their are winners and losers and we need to be aware of that and not sheltered from it.
If you lose at something you can train, learn, and perhaps next time you will win.
Yet failure to learn that could be fatal, and worse if you get into positions of power it can be fatal for more people than just you as you drag others with you.
It is not brave to push a safe space...
That is cowardice.
Being offended is a choice that happens inside your own mind. You can choose to not be offended.
How important is that thing that offended in truth when it comes to your life?
I can tell you now my first name is Deva. It is pronounced Dayva (or Dave+Uh). I also had long hair a good portion of my life, especially in my late teens.
I was frequently mis-gendered. I was called a "girl" by bullies but only when they were in a crowd and I stood up to them.
I am still misgendered by official sources frequently to this day as I receive mail to Mrs Deva or Ms Deva quite frequently and often from places that the application had a spot to indicate that I was male.
Do I freak out about it? No. Ultimately it is not important. I only realized that the thing people are choosing to be offended by and get people fired, cancelled, etc over is something I faced all of my life yet I learned it is insignificant and truly had no impact on my life.
It tells you how entitled and coddled an "adult" had to have been if it is pronouns and misgendering that they treat like the end of the world.
If you watch "Dumb and Dumber" the movie you might find that it is not amusing anymore. It is too close to the day to day reality of how people behave today.
They are supposed to get us through war and conflict when they were sheltered from any understanding of war and conflict, and how to deal with it.
So-called adults who have been raised to ignore reality.
We stopped the Sanitariums for insane people and instead they found ways to push insanity to the masses.
