    The second speaker's brief mention of micro aggression:
    She basically nails it - that anyone anywhere at any time and for any reason can declare themselves to have been aggressed upon by a person who may or may not have been aware of the impact.
    This is a completely subjective response. Let me be clear. A thing that no-one appears to care about or suggest might offer greater clarity, could it or should it be examined in the light of objectively observed facts?
    What gets lost in all of this mess, or appears to get lost in it - is the fact that the whole concept of a micro aggression (other than the weird fact that it seems to have replaced "macro" aggressions that have apparently become quite scarce) is that it is an easily and readily useful weaponized quick hit on anyone that the accuser does not like.
    Again, for any reason, at any time in any place, and upon a mere whim.
    We are such babies it seems, to think that this does not happen. Of course it happens. A reasonable socially adept and responsible person can simply point out a distasteful question. The examples constantly given reflect more the mindset and cultural awareness of small children and much older buffoons and idiots. For who we have always had obvious and quite competent ways of dealing with.
    And finally: why is it that no person of any age, type, background, persuasion, culture, gender race, sexuality, or any other identified or identifiable category cannot ever, it seems, counteract against an accusation of micro aggression by merely pointing out that they have been aggressed upon themselves? Who drew first in this "gunfight?"
    We might civilly discuss amongst ourselves how this all works with reasonably well-educated grown up adult people,, well versed and well-trained in the fine arts of socially mobile and adept competencies in diplomacy and sensitivity to others.
    To expect mere children to have this down is an absolute outrage against the natural evolution of normal human beings attempting to grow up in what is assumed to be a free state. They're children, for heaven's sake. Looking to the supposed elders and betters for guidance, forgiveness, understanding, compassion, in positions of trust which are not automatically bestowed or given out without some form of vetting and screening.
    Unless of course, a fair number of those supposed elders and betters are hotwired into some kind of love affair with exercising rare breeds and forms of micro aggressions all of their own design and fashion - with impunity.

Children, in schools where there is emphasis on DEI and taught by committed SJWs, learn that if white, they are the oppressors, and if brown, they are the oppressed. I'm friends with a Latin family, whose 16 yr. old was told that he was oppressed at a public supported charter school. Believing his teacher, he asked his father, an immigrate, if Papa felt oppressed. The father, who has done quite well in this country through hard work, said NO! Now the kid distrusts wherever the teachers say as well as afraid to speak out or question because the CRT supporters do not indulge in discource.

So I googled it and came up with an article that said that the last 27 or so ejections from pro football games were of black players.

    great point about the human batteries, that was pretty stupid. Every dystopia like Terminator or _The Matrix_ suffers from this problem: humans are way more likely to dominate other groups of humans than machines are. Skynet and the Matrix are possible, but there will be malevolant humans and not machines behind the entire plot... it connects back to the main theme here: humans like to dominate one another, and a lot of the forced genuflection to woke theories is an exercise in the exertion of social dominance. Slavery and Jim Crow were the same thing, but with a different target. We need to guard against unjust forms of dominance, however they come.

      1. If I'm correct, the panel was run by the recently approved club (I haven't listened to either), and I suppose UD doesn't record those, whereas they do record guest lecturers, as expected.
      2. I'm surprised you watched the panel given that your go-to argument seems to be that these people are white and therefore their opinions cannot be taken seriously unless a black person gives them a thumbs up.
      Guest lecture panels don't typically host opposing viewpoints. Typically, if you have a guest lecturer arguing for Virgil's salvation, you don't have another lecturer arguing against it.
      3. Again, all that matters is a person's ideas. If you're going to say that a person's ideas are necessarily predicated on their race, then I think we just have a fundamental disagreement, because I think people are freer than that. If you want to argue that this panel should have included the opposition as well, sure, I honestly have no opinion on that -- it depends on what the panelists and the opposition think -- but I'm totally fine with that.
      But instead you prioritize color. You say that people of color should be included, and particularly people of color with opposing point of view. I'd say that the opposing point of view can be included, and that they can be people of color or white, men or women, etc. etc.

    This term is just a new catch-all slur against liberals. It's utterly meaningless. It is more useful to think of it as a reflection of the biases and fears that so-called conservatives about people who reject their simplistic views. NOBODY uses this term who is a liberal. It's just a formulaic straw man that serves as a foil for shadow boxing goofballs who want to virtue signal about how reactionary they are. Quite frankly, I think anybody who seriously talks about it like it's some modern scourge is participating in a pathetic attempt at engineering a "crisis" that requires some fascist remedy

      "anybody who...fascist remedy."
      Interesting take, cuz Conservatives think that's what CRT is all about: engineering a crisis by pretending that modern institutions are still racist and modern laws still discriminate and then introduce fascist remedies.
      Also, I've spoken with people who do use and prefer the word CRT, and I've even seen a local leader of Black Lives Matter use the word CRT (and wear a shirt with CRT written on it). Liberals definitely do use the term, despite what you might be reading on Buzzfeed. Talk with some actual liberals and you'll figure that out :)

      @@deedeee6271 Do you think that it is theoretically okay in some era where there are no such systems to have a panel with only white people, so long as they have opposing points of view?
      Also, I don't believe such systems exist, just for the record.
