Shhh Imbrinium you are hurting their feelings...
There have always been such people. However, it is wrong to simply paint an entire generation as being such, as is often done with trigger warnings today.
Holy Marsh and The Qoryx
I can't help but notice an underrepresentation of the Lesbian community in your image. What are you hiding?
They are presented as Feminist witches ;).
Well technically according to Nifonese propaganda Feminism = Marxism + Lesbianism.
And it was result of lack of space ;).
Like, fabulous colours, man.
So what are you suggesting or implying, that Mr. New Aeyeriss have a hidden agenda and implicit preferences? Wew, lad.
The Qoryx and Nyrmanchia
I was talking to an old history professor of mine last month and she told me a great story about trigger warnings. She's retired, and comes in to teach one class a semester for her own fun. This year she's teaching the two-semester course on WW2, a 2nd year intro type course. On the first class she started with the Rape of Nanking, a great place to jump into WW1 if you're not familiar with it. And apparently she had a few students get up and walk out of class during this lecture. On the next class these students had returned, but on resuming the lecture these students became very vocal towards the prof against the subject matter being offensive. So apparently the interaction want like this:
Prof: You can still deregister from the class without penalties if you don't like the subject.
Students: I'm a declared history major, I need this class!
Prof: Then suck it up because history is offensive.
She was a great prof, one of my favorites.
Lamoni, Stevid, United states of pa, Holy Marsh, and 4 othersGreater themis, The Qoryx, Mancunian northumbria, and Nyrmanchia
And she TBH said the truth. Everything in this world virtually will offend someone, but too many people won't simply suck it up and go forward. They will whine over it for months until someone solves it for them.
Also, I may not be able to understand the politically correct culture, and I mean no disrespect to anyone, but what is so offensive about Rape of Nanjing? For almost entire WWII my family was slaughtered by Germans, and then by the Soviets (one of my grandfather's brothers was in unit of Major Józef Kuraś, codename Ogień, and kept fighting soviets until 1947). Somehow no one mentions NKVD Polish operation, Katyń, or few other places where the reds murdered thousands of people...
I never agree or disprove about what happened at Nanjing, but what is supposed to be "offensive" about it?
You want the truth? WELL YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE F*CKING TRUTH MAGGOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At least one student was Japanese I was told.
All were women, or so I have been lead to understand.
It was violent, that's what's offensive about it.
Then she should listen to it more carefully. I would love to see a German walking out during a lecture on a holocaust... although you know, in my county during anniversary of Aschwitz liberation grandson of Rudoplh Hoess was invited, but daughter of Witold Pilecki... not.
Though most of the modern Japanese are too focused on their virtual waifus to know which edge of a katana is the sharp one... They are no threat. I mean them no offense, I have high respect to the Japanese people - especially because Kempeitai saved several Polish intelligence operatives during WW II, another story which I could tell you about one day...
On an unrelated note: I decided to boot up minecraft the other day and went looking for world seeds to play. I found none that were good so I decided to try something super offensive and put in "Grorious Nippon Steer", and it was awesome.
I think the best minecraft seeds are offensive. I will try more.
Probably because it has the word "rape" in it and people don't know what it is.
Literally all a trigger warning actually is is "this is what the subject is, so prepare for that or leave". I don't see why that's continually so hard for people to understand.
Oddly, sometimes rape survivors don't feel like discussing rape. What a world! So soft! So weak! So new!
How would ignoring a trigger warning make you a dickwad?
Are you a dickwad if you see a wet floor sign and say "well, I'll walk there anyway!"?
Fallout 2, NV and Point Lookout for me.
Playing through F4 at the moment, well when I get the chance. Enjoyed alot of it, though theres stuff I haven't. Going to be nabbing the Far Harbor DLC, not sure on the others.
All the DLCs that added content were very good, especially Far Habor and Nuka World. The Mechanist was just more limited, but it was still good.
As for the workshop DLCs, it depends if that's your thing. I did like the one where you can build arenas and capture animals and have them fight. I turned Spectacle Island into a huge arena. The vault settlement DLC was also cool.
What I do hate is how much space they give you in some of the settlement areas, but how they limit you to a certain number of 'building units.' Like the vault settlement is HUGE, but I haven't even finished building out one of the caverns I'm almost three-fourths of the way to the max number of 'building units' (e.g. walls, stores, etc -- each individual thing you build is a 'unit') I can have.
Yeah, that's the most worthwhile mod to get other than bug fixes - anything that will increase your building limit. As long as your computer can handle it.
A lot of people tend to also gloss over the fact that dismissing people's views because one doesn't believe in them is actually rude and disrespectful, but yet are shocked when the same is applied to them.
A lot of people who on an average day don't talk at length about mass rapings of an entire city, and the systematic extermination of millions of their fellow human beings might find said topics a little unsettling, and as is their right, point out that it would be courteous of you to warn them ahead of time.
I think the point people forget is that respect goes both ways. Just like religious people get upset when they can't speak up about what they view as unholy behaviour (for example when I kiss my boyfriend in public), it shouldn't be such a shock when people with the opposite view speak up about something that offended them.
Also Geara, not talking specifically about you, just the point you made is similar to the one a lot of people make, so I just want to make sure you know this isn't directed at you. :)
Question; Could any of the Cold War era British carriers been able to operate the Grumman E-2 Hawkeye?
When I was a student, part of school would be reading the syllabus to know what the subject is. So there was an expectation that a course on war would involve discussion of violence. It's not like you are in a program with a name like "fluffy kittens". If you can't handle the subject matter you shouldn't be there, and you don't get to complain that you don't want to handle the subject matter.
Yeah...
And if the syllabus actually presents the subjects in a way that accurately describes what you will be discussing, that is literally a trigger warning. That is what I said. Though, a class on war does not have to graphically describe violence, rape, or anything else - that is the professor's choice and something they might mention in their syllabus.
A trigger warning is "this is the subject; if you can't handle it, take your leave." Which means "if you can't handle the subject matter you shouldn't be there, and you don't get to complain that you don't want to handle the subject matter," is exactly right. So, what do you have against trigger warnings?
That Japanese student may have been offended but they probably weren't triggered. They likely had no trauma to trigger. That's not at all the same thing. They likely just didn't want to hear about their own nation's atrocities.
Lamoni and Jesheoda
