Trust one who is not a younger reader may comment.

What bothers me is a complete rejection of facts and statistics unless they support the PC ideals. 13% foreign born in UK, 60% foreign born among homeless in London, 1 in 9 schools with English as not first language, yet in discussing the housing crisis, shortage of school places and other issues nobody can mention the imm.... word. It's racist!

yep and the longer they actively tell everyone to ignore the elephant in the room the worse it is going to get. All this PC rubbish will probably end up in unpleasantness.

Was talking to a very lefty nephew earlier in the year and mentioned a few stats. He said he doesn't take any notice of statistics, probably typical of too many.

Refusing to address concerns only increases prejudices. Those on the left and right do not necessarily have different long term objectives, a united Europe, a united world - great! But we need to take account of human nature and work with it. We may achieve the objectives rather more quickly that way, instead of trying to rush things and introducing all sorts of divisions into our society.

It's the safe space one that gets me.

I mean what would it actually be like - would it be just no one talking for fear of offending people?

or would it be a bunch of SJW's hating on all things white and male

What gets me about it is that these "younger readers" must have had parents who really screwed up bringing their kids up to have done such a bad job, but now the parents, in an effort to forget their guilt at their failure, are blaming the kids for how they were brought up.

It'll be that.

I'd just like to say that my kids loath millennials, snowflakes and SJW. In fact, my youngest (20 years old) is a bit of a right winger. (As opposed to the millennials being right whingers

)
