I am a nurse. 30 years ago I had a patient who was a survivor of the German death camps of World War II. I knew this because I recognize the significance of the numbers tattooed on her forearm. This lovely, poised elderly woman did not point out her tattoo or personal history of suffering. And after we developed a safe relationship as a nurse/patient I asked her one question about her past. "Are you angry with the people who did this to you? ". Her answer was this, "oh darling I'm not angry. They took 1277 days of my life when I was in that camp. If I am angry I give them one more day of my life. And I refuse to give away anymore of my life to anger & Resentment".

Exactly. I know a guy from Serbia (mid-20's) who is a refugee and has experienced some horrible shit. He is always grateful to Finland who took him in and gave him an opportunity to live a safe life. I've also studied in Israel and had an Eritrean class mate. He was a political prisoner in Eritrea, fled with his friend through the Sudan and Egypt. When they were sneaking across the border between Israel and Egypt, his friend was shot and killed by the Egyptian border patrol. In Israel he was an entrepreneur, had a few phone shops / Internet cafes for other Eritreans in South Tel Aviv (that place is like a mini Africa, a special place) and studied in one of the most prestigious schools in Israel - he received a scholarship from the school. So this black non-Jew is given an opportunity to restart his life and he isn't complaining. Israel is shown to be a racist country quite often but having witnessed instances like these it really irks me that only one side of story is told. tl:dr; People who've experienced real horrors appreciate what they have. I really hope people could learn that without having to experience insurmountable amounts of suffering. We should appreciate the comfort and safety our ancestors built for us, not destroy it!!!

As a person who is completely disabled by REAL Post traumatic stress disorder, I am disgusted by the ways in which the words triggering and trauma are used these days. These whining students de-legitimize the sufferings of people who have actually experienced REAL violence and trauma. "Trigger" used to refer to the physiological response that occurs when a trauma survivor is reminded of a traumatic event. Trauma, by definition is a life-death event. The point of healing from trauma is to be given the tools to FORGET the event, NOT to be kept a victim forever.

Preach. I have a mental health disorder and am disabled by it, myself. People who promote /the disability/, essentially, by saying things shouldn't be cured, etc., are horrible imho. I will always strongly resist such inane suggestions. Being someone who has to go through difficulties in life is nothing good, and nothing to be promoted in the extreme way they do. I'll never understand it. Must just be extreme ignorance, with the occasional unhealthy coping mechanisms. Who knows. Thanks for posting, btw.

Highlighting your victimhood is literally infantile. This is the first thing that babies learn: You control your environment by crying, so Mommy knows you need something. It's important communication. It's the rudimentary beginning of communication and interacting with the world. THEN you learn how to do things for yourself. You grow up. These people are deliberately regressing to an infantile mind-set and deliberately arresting their development at that stage.

Keeping the wounds open to point to is an effective mind control technique. Gives the subject a defense mechanism that they can resort to not just when challenged but even to meet you halfway. They feel vulnerable without these wounds as the wounds are their identity. To heal is to die. Victimhood is empowering like a drug andvery addictive. it's being taught,promoted and these subjects are used as a tool to attain power. Free speech is an obstacle so it's under attack.

Fear not. You can rest assured that mere social constructionists and physical deconstructionists will continue to be in great need of highly developed scientific talents. We do not have to like them, understand them, trust them or believe them in order to live among them. While they make it all up as they go along, others actually make things. I suppose in this age of rampant privatization, even Reality itself is up for grabs. Why not? It sure has a tried and proven way of providing some serious ass-biting once in awhile. But if you think about it - we tend to fear what we don't know. Not knowing what is real makes what is real - real scary. Studies are a pain in the neck, and real comfort, at the same time.

How the media is pushing that narrative. You almost forget that people can think critically. Mob mentality is becoming too popular. Individualism is getting thrown out the window and postmodernism and intersectionality are trying to solve a problem that has been solved in western society years ago. Meaning value the individual. And under that guise they are turning people into puppets. But seeing videos like this makes me feel better lol

Those classes are also offensive to the gay and trans boys - they're not able to cut the mustard in a masculine environment so the only solution is to destroy the environment. Forget the fact that 99.9 % (aka the normal boys) excel there and find it valuable to their lives. They would also say that traditional male activities like working with your hands/building things contributes to violence in men. It reinforces their physical superiority which they use to oppress women and minorities. Never underestimate the madness of the New Left.

Conversely one of those girls ended up teaching wood sculpture at ART college. So more freedom to choose back then might have helped both of us - but that didn't make either of us victims ( just in case anyone thinks i'm saying that - I'm not ) it seems we muddled through nonetheless.

We reinforce false victimhood when we fell sorry for other people when they don't need sympathy. At birth, I "caught" Cerebral Palsy when my lungs collapsed. While I grew up, Mom and Dad let me make stupid, sometimes humiliating mistakes because my parents knew that I needed to learn from my stupid behavior. They hated to see me suffer from the blunders. But the blunders taught me how to avoid feeling victimized. It's unfair to blame others for problems that I know I caused. The victim's attitude teaches people to be needlessly touchy, to feel almost paranoid, and to maybe even refuse to give others a deserved benefit of the doubt. Supposed victims become narcissists who expect others to treat them too gently when they won't treat them gently in return. This happens repeatedly when bratty adults impulsively and groundlessly accuse others of racism, anti-Semitism, homophobia, or something like that. The victims(?) want to be accepted by people they refuse to accept.

17:00 that is an amazing summation of the problem with emotional sensitivity in youth today. People have never been physically hurt, so their brains hypersensitize themselves to emotional stimuli. Weinstein really is brilliant. How the hell did he end up at Evergreen? 52:59 An amazing statement from Dr. Heying. "Not Read-Only" is going to be a requirement for respect from me from now on.

In the course of my life, it happens to be that I have been raped. I have never ever considered calling myself a "rape victim" or "rape survivor". I rarely think about it, and I don't need to talk about it. I haven't told my husband of 11 years about it. Why should I? I'm a happy person. We're happy together. Why would I burden him with something that happened to me decades ago? What would be the point? This was a refreshing, interesting panel discussion. I'm so thankful that there are people...real smart people...who "get it" lol.

People also hidden traumatic things that happened to them because it's a terrifying endeavor to process. I am glad that you don't want to consider yourself a victim, but I hope you find a trained professional to process what happened to you if you need to or want to. I must say, it's odd that you typed a random message to total strangers on the internet that you were raped, but you have never told your husband. Based on your actions, I can't help but wonder if there's a part of you that is desperate to process what happtto you.

Dr. Sommers' part around the 22nd minute was awesome. Women claim they do not need men yet the moment they are among themselves they cannot stand it. They say if women ruled the world there would be no wars. More like, there would be wars + no one would be talking to each other.

Women claim they don't need men but the first person they run to when they need anything is a man. They don't need men directly because men have ensured they can access everything they need from men indirectly. ie via the state or via price-controlled labour. Society runs on the backs of men. Men do 95% of essential and physical jobs. Men invent 95% of everything. Men pay 80% of taxes. Men do 95% of the protective jobs. Look around you, look at everything you use on a day-to-day basis, 99% of them will be made by a man. Modern women are the most spoiled demographic to ever walk the Earth. And they're also the demographic who have convinced the world they're the biggest victims.

'It takes a village to raise a child' - English saying. Look ahead. We need to home school our kids in contact with each other as part of a network and re-build a general community spirit. A network of home schoolers in each town, who can all work together and will have much better intentions and more flexibility in their everyday lives. We'll give them a very good education of course (including the 3 'r's!), but there will be no Marxist-feminist brainwashing, no common-core and no anti-white racism.

I absolutely agree that professional victimization is a real problem today but there is one topic I have been unable to hear anyone really speak about in depth. It seems to me that many people in academia and elsewhere seem to be "rebels without a cause." The social justice warriors appear to have a deep seeded psychological need to fight a war without joining the military. They look for anything to get upset about and then begin to fight as if they are personally being attacked by anyone who does not share their views. These people walk around feeling smug and superior which seems to be the payoff for such behavior. Therefore, it seems that academia has not only created adults who are psychological and emotional infants but also self-aggrandizing narcissist's who act like the "mean girls" in high school using intimidation, threats and often violence to make sure that only their voices get heard. They remind me of toddlers who have been left out of an adult conversation and start misbehaving for attention. Perhaps it is time to begin treating these people like the children they are and confine them to their safe spaces until they grow up and stop throwing tantrums.

I agree with the panel, generally, on the destructive role victim culture is playing in academia and culture. However, I often wonder about the jeering role (they are subtle, but present I think) Peter plays in his choice of words. I do not mean others are not responsible for how they deal with ridicule for their views. But being ignored is a characteristic the marginalized and victim narrative claims and if they are genuinely being encouraged to “deal with reality,” while having to sort through unnecessary ridicule, snide remarks in addition to the actual argument, I imagine such remarks are counterproductive. It seems to me such talk is fodder for the person making the counter claim to the panel’s general argument and it is another opportunity not to deal with the main argument being presented by the panel.
