Hey everybody. This is James Lindsay and you're listening to New Discourse's Bullets,

where I give a short bullet point type summary of a single topic from woke Marxism

that you need to understand so we can defeat it.

And we just had President Trump get reelected and the predictable happened across America.

People had meltdowns. Leftists had meltdowns. But across American colleges and universities and also K-12 schools,

teachers and professors and other faculty members infantilized their students, just like they did in

2016 to an extreme, just like they have for a million other things. I'm talking about the safe

and I was told the following. Something very bad has happened. It's all over the news. And for the

next hour, we're going to focus on physics. And that was it. There was no safe space. There was no day of morning. There's no take some time off. There's none of this crap like I need a personal day or a mental health day. There were certainly no crayons. There were certainly no coloring books. There were no cuddly characters, there were no rooms with soft music,

or cartoons playing, none of this infantilizing crap.

And so, and we can talk about the whole safe space culture.

People were ranting about safe spaces back in 2013 and 2014 and 2015, quite famously,

all over the internet.

This isn't new, but here it's happened again in the wake of
