I don't understand your reply. Perhaps you meant to reply to a different comment?
- ganzuul 7y agoYou said; > 'Disclaimer: I also don't like the idea of "safe spaces"...' The article defines a safe space as "...an environment where difficult subjects can be discussed openly, without the risk of disrespect or harsh judgement." I suppose I'm really asking you if you read TFA.
- abjKT26nO8 7y agoI read it. And I think that people shouldn't be shielded from harsh judgement or things that they may find offensive. Mutual respect is desired, but it isn't something that can be achieved by regulation --- unless you aim merely for a false sense of respect.
- ganzuul 7y agoAre you assuming constant shielding, like being surrounded by 'yes-men'? I don't think that is what advocates of safe spaces have in mind.
