Complaint lodged against Scottish student for raising hand

[Rex Kwon Do]

Yep, it's another one of those "safe space" stories. At a meeting of the minds--small ones, from the sound of it--this student shook her head and raised her hands in exasperation at the words of one of her interlocutors. The result? They threatened to remove her from the meeting and a formal complaint lodged due to her violating the rules of the "safe space" they have created there, which has rules that there are no "inappropriate hand gestures" allowed. The student is claiming her views regarding Israel may have prompted the response as well, since the same gestures she was censured for were done by students disagreeing with her while she spoke.

Lol. I have to seriously wonder if this is all just a big joke at this point. I don't know how an adult can honestly lodge a complaint against someone because their "safe space" was violated, or threaten to kick them out of a debate. How dare you disagree with me!

Equality for all.

The idea of safe spaces really boils down to a form of censorship and control established by the far left. It's a fucking joke.

Violated safe spaces by hand gesturing? Hand Gesturing??? That is the most vague policy rule ever. I wonder what they define hand gesturing as: Giving the finger? Pointing? Being Italian?

Furthermore, they had to take another vote after she shook her head in disagreement while someone was talking; seriously, just shook her head in disagreement. Thankfully the vote landed in her favour, but are people so rattled by something so basic and guileless?

Apparently raising your hand.

She should have said she had Tourette's and them not allowing her to spazz out was a sign of their disgusting ableism.

Well she was already in the sjw's hot (cucumber herbal) water over something regarding people with disabilities; maybe they took her raising her hand as a an insult to people who dont have that privilege? Nerf Babies have tantrumed over less.

I'm pretty middle of the road but this is fucking bullshit. Bunch of thin skinned whiny bitches with their safe spaces.

You'll be much happier when you stop caring about stuff that quite literally does not matter

This is why the SJW far left never really gets anything done. They are too occupied with procedural issues (can you speak up if you are not a person of color? etc. etc.).

[glennrod]

Liberalism has been trickling into Scotland for some time now

Creeping liberalism

 

[Sycho Sid]

Where do you people find this stuff? I mean honestly, about 90% of my 'SJW' news, or safe space news, comes from War Roomers pissed off about it, or trying to point out how it is a big deal.

 

[SammyPops]

wonder what the punishment is for getting a raging boner in such a safe space?

Here we have Glasgow Police threatening people not to post anything on the internet that the "liberal" left don't like.

 

[glennrod]

Ugh...

Universities/Colleges are known librul enclaves and these students pay the fees so the for-profit system lets them vent and gives them "safe spaces". Hive mind conditioning, no wonder so many are "refugee welcome" types.
