the trans guys living in the women's dorms fake being trans just to see hot girls naked in the bathrooms there, they didn't want cisgender male guys coming in and competing with them for the hot girls. Not kidding, pretty sure that's what this was about.

Wow, this post sure brought out a ton of people defending the people who live in literal safe spaces.

    We're talking about people who live in literal safe spaces who get "angry, scared and confused" when something happens as mundane as a repairman coming to install a new radiator.

    Upper-class twits who can afford an $80,000 a year college, claiming to be "violated". By building maintenance.

      No, they're saying they're precious snowflakes who melt at the though of A MAN repairing the radiators. It's a SAFE SPACE! They can't live outside safe spaces because those evil MEN will, I don't know, misgender them or something. Crippling psychic injuries. They're fragile and overreact ridiculously to the slightest provocation, real or imagined.

      When they said Bruce Jenner could become a woman but Rachel Dolezal couldn't become black.

        These people believe that contradicting them is harassment. When you have to actively seek out things to be victimized by, you are not a victim. You are an opportunist.

        The Evolutionary Advantages of Playing Victim. "Newly published research indicates that people who more frequently signal their victimhood are more likely to lie and cheat for material gain and denigrate others as a means to get ahead. Victimhood signaling is associated with numerous morally undesirable personality traits, such as narcissism, Machiavellianism, a sense of entitlement, and lower honesty and humility."

          That’s a good start. Now follow up with evidence! You cannot provide a claim and then expect us to supply your reasoning for it. Give us examples of those white collectives that are allowed on university campuses. Cite sources! And then, the hardest part, and perhaps one that cannot be done, show how it eclipses in importance the points in the article, and why focussing on some bizarre idea you just made up is important.

            Whataboutism is a propaganda technique first used by the Soviet Union, in its dealings with the Western world.[1] When Cold War criticisms were levelled at the Soviet Union, the response would be "What about..." followed by the naming of an event in the Western world.[2][3] It represents a case of tu quoque (appeal to hypocrisy),[4] a logical fallacy that attempts to discredit the opponent's position by asserting the opponent's failure to act consistently in accordance with that position, without directly refuting or disproving the opponent's initial argument.

            it should be used sometimes like when it's "what about this example that disproves your point"?

            The left started calling it whataboutism and mocking it because people kept proving them wrong in arguments.
