The more I hear about feeling hurted by ideas or mere words, the more I believe that feelings is not something that we should take into consideration when speaking. Or even further, we need to hurt feelings deliberately, it is called desensetization (I go through such an experience and now I cannot find any idea that can hurt my feelings. There are ones I agree of, ones that I disagree of, I'm not sure about others and totally indifferent to the rest, but there are no ideas which is painful to think of). Everyone should learn how to not being hurt by words or ideas. Those who cannot should shut up and feel free to use custom filters while using internet.
It seems unheartful and even cruel, but I see no way how society can solve its problems without ability to talk about those problems.
Funny thing, but when I think about Russia's law that can charge for hurting religious feelings, I see the reasons behind that. It is not that I agree with it, but it is a perfectly rational thing to make society more religious and more governable, to create a society of obedient slaves, by promoting The Orthodox National Idea, instead of The rotten Communist National Idea. I can hardly believe that it'll lead to a good end, but at least we can see, that those who behind this promoting think at least one step ahead.
When I think about feminists fighting science, I see no rationality in their behaviour, it is counter-productive way to deal with problems. Their behaviour seems for me as just emotional reaction where thinking used only to find clever rationalizations for emotions.
) I'm not totally agree with Damore, I belive that he misses some important points, so it is arguable is his opinion is the science, but the point is his loudest opponents just reject all science Damore referred to.
