I don’t understand why people keep making it all about “victim-hood” or PC culture or whatever else they want to call it.
News flash guys, we have the internet now. If a person, or a group of people is feeling oppressed or bullied, they have a medium to come forward and say it. If campus police brutality is going on ( Like the UC Davis pepper-spray incident), people are going to see/hear about it almost instantly. There’s no “culture of victim-hood” going on. There’s camaraderie between people in similarly unfortunate situations and if you don’t like it then get rid of your network-capable devices and live as a hermit lol.
That also applies to what @ThankYouforHelp said. There was always vehement disagreement on college campuses, as well as activism. The only difference was that you didn’t hear about it unless A) it made one of a few major news networks or B) you heard about it through the grapevine.
Yes, you can find more or less conservative/liberal universities, and larger colleges will inevitably have a larger variety of opinions than small ones.
