No, they don’t. But actual experts (not your made up DoD ones) do!

Side note: anyone else disappointed that “Stormfront” was taken as a white nationalist site? Like a weather website named “Storm Front” would have been AWESOME, but like to late.

Please post some research by a psychologist or therapist or a mental health organization (not just a campus student group) that supports trigger warnings.

Trigger warnings do not have any evidence backing them up. There is no research that supports trigger warnings as a way to help survivors.

But they DONT HELP STUDENTS. THEY DONT HELP SURVIVORS. There is NO RESEARCH that says that trigger warnings help survivors. None. Zero. Trigger warnings were not started by therapists and psychologists looking to help survivors.

No, that is NOT the point of the sign. No psychologist or therapist, and NO RESEARCH, supports trigger warnings. Literally none.

Really? So there was never anyone whining that we needed trigger warnings?

Except that “Trigger Warnings” are not valid forms of emotional therapy or help for people with Trauma. There is NO evidence supporting trigger warnings as a positive thing for Trauma victims, and there aren’t any therapists supporting the issue. It is entirely something to be used to stifle debate and punish people…

More room to manspread? Gun racks? The navigation plays porn when you are in park? Xbox One in the back seat?

I will not apologize for my Crocs. I work on my car in Crocs, I shop for groceries in Crocs, I went hiking in my Crocs.

Pizza. Both my parents worked and both were not big on cooking. I ate pizza at least 3 times a week since 1st grade. And when I lived in Mexico? Still pizza, just shittier. And take out.

Good write up Kristen. “Car for men” doesn’t exist for a multitude of reasons, from being the “default” to the obviousness that is “men don’t all want the same thing in a car.”

And then we get Mike Pence.

Careful, lots of people here ready to pounce on anyone who talks shit on Islam. Which, as practiced most often globally, also doesn’t allow women to play with boys.

EXACTLY. She is an adult: but putting the kids at risk?? When Russia is bombing and America is bombing and ISIS is suicide bombing? The reason for the refugee crisis is, in LARGE PART, due to the fact that people want to take their kids OUT of Syria.

Ok, but do you see how taking small children to a war-torn country may not be the best idea? Even if they were thinking post-war, these are kids and the images they will see and people they will meet will be very traumatic.

Technically not until January.

Colonialism? Israel is not a colonial state: indeed the whole reason the Jew’s were not there is due to colonialism by Christian and Muslim alike.

The Palestinian’s claim was also built by a very questionable military exercise during a campaign of systematic violence and oppression. What’s your point?

Good for him? Why would you talk him out of it, Israel’s policies toward Palestinians suck but otherwise they are a beacon of egalitarianism in the Middle East.
