the most telling part of the interview is when she asked why should his right to free speech trump a trans person's right to not be offended. That is the whole problem with what is happening on campuses and within our society. People really believe they have a right to never hear any point of view that they don't agree with. When you have a group of people that are looking for things to be offended by, that shuts down any conversation between two people that disagree.

I agree and it's all age groups but it isn't anything new or worse than the past, it's just worse than it was in our past. 24 hour news brings loads of bad news and even though our conscious mind knows these things are not happening outside our door (for most of us), our unconscious mind interprets it as our environment being dangerous and so people begin to believe the world is more dangerous, but what changed is our perception of reality, not the world. In fact violence has been declining for centuries and politics are less intense now than 150 years ago (I believe one of the Republican reps spoke to this fact during the impeachment hearing).
