You've bored us all to death with this.

I'm Charlie a guy from NZ who was brought up by very British parents. I am not cool in any way and I dream of talking about politics for a living. My favourite people ever are FDR,Michael Joseph Savage, Clement Attlee, Elizabeth Warren, Rachel Maddow, Douglas Adams, Terry Gilliam, Laura Marling, Bruce Soord and Steven Wilson.

The moral panic over trigger warnings often evokes … the figure of the oversensitive student who is not attuned to the difficulty and discomfort of learning as if to say: if we let your sensitivities become law we lose our freedom. I would argue that freedom has become reduced to the freedom to be offensive, which is also about how those with power protect their right to articulate their own views, no matter what.

[T]he romantic glosses over information about his beloved that contradicts his personal desires. Romantic love is a form of reductionism, reducing woman from her full range of human potential to a tiny list of male desires. […] The cult of the romantic erases woman’s identity as a wrench in the machine of male domination.
