Any instances where people abuse this rule and use it to attack people that don't agree with them is a huge problem but in general trying to combat biases would seem to be a good thing for the institution. If you look at it this person seems to be trying to combat biases against conservatives so it seems weird to me that he seems to view the universities attempts to combat other biases as so nefarious. Also, civil or academic discourse should always have a place in college campuses but what this person said is definitely neither of those things.
- FrancoDiaz 10y ago..combat biases Think about the implications of that at a deeper, rather than superficial, level. There's consequences for everything.
- tdb7893 10y agoBiases are bad whether about conservatives or about LGBT people. I get that there are consequences for everything but the consequences for having less biases is a more open and fair academic system. EDIT: The stated purpose of it isn't bad and as long as it doesn't enforce specific biases instead of eliminating them then it's probably okay
- FrancoDiaz 10y agoI think the people that are inventing this "bias reporting system" have horrible biases, and they only get worse as time goes along. The problem is that it's not a fair system. And everybody knows this, but obviously if you're the ones making the rules and the system is in your favor, you don't care. But the real problem is that there is no honesty in the discussions and arguments that SJWs and their sympathizers present.
