Stanford Law students shouted down Fifth Circuit appellate judge Kyle Duncan while he was trying to speak. When he asked for an administrator to control the situation, Stanford’s “associate dean of diversity, equity, and inclusion” got up and lectured him for nearly 10 minutes

Clinical psychology, which literally popularized the idea that repeatedly facing what you fear makes you stronger (exposure therapy) has somehow become the biggest proponent of “protecting” people from any and all discomfort A complete abdication of professional responsibility
