Some of the crap that gets pedalled in Universities is dangerous because these young people are our future.What will they be like in the real world without their safe spaces to run back to.
Yes I have to agree with this. Someone I look up to a LOT has been no platformed for her views pretty recently and I find it ****ing disgraceful. Even if what she said was bigoted or whatever (which I disagree that it was) she still deserves to have a voice without a bunch of SJWs screaming about it. Challenge any views you disagree with, do not silence people. All IMO of course

Edited to add..this person was Germaine Greer. Let the accusations of hairy bra-burning angry feminazi commence...
