42 Things You're Not Allowed to Say At Virginia Tech

Facebook photo saying "I'm not a brand" is a micro-aggression.

Fifty years ago, students protested for free speech. Now, they're protesting against it. Last spring, groups at Virginia Tech collaborated to produce a list of 42 different expressions which offend them. Posters reminding students of the forbidden speech remain scattered across campus today, The College Fix reported.

"It should have been a campaign to promote common decency, but beneath the surface, it plays into their own scornful agendas," Nicholas Korpics, a senior at the college, told The College Fix. "The minority groups on campus, especially within the leftist-queer community, have little to no intentions of reconciling with their 'oppressors.' They just want to isolate themselves and then say nasty things about people who oppress them."

The list of forbidden expressions was compiled at a series of weekly meetings hosted by the NAACP, the Muslim Student Association, and the Jewish Student Union. At least three remain in McBryde academic hall, telling students not to say "All Jews are rich," not to call students "spicy latinas," and not to shout "run n*gger run" at black joggers — as if these were all common practices.

All such phrases are considered "micgro-aggressions," which means that no matter what the intentions of the speaker or the context of the comment, such statements carry the ability to offend someone, and therefore must be forbidden.

This is not the first time Virginia Tech has made the news for controversial posters. Earlier this year, students put up posters asking Christian students to check their "religious privilege."

Without further ado, here is the list of 42 expressions forbidden by the PC police at Virginia Tech, organized by four major categories: disability, religion, transgenderism, and race. Enjoy (or mourn, your pick)!

Trigger warning: many of these border on the absurd. Actually realizing that people think of these things as discriminatory may cause confusion, anger, and the desire to share this article on social media. You've been warned.

Disability.

“She’s so bipolar.” Disabilities are not insults.

“Coworkers at another institution frequently tried to ‘diagnose’ people behind their back, and repeatedly described people with specific disabilities (that I share) as scary, dangerous, awkward, creepy, weird, ect.”

A disabled person being told “You’re so inspirational” for doing an everyday task.

“Don’t call yourself that,” where that refers to me calling myself disabled.

“You have so much to be thankful for, you have no reason to be depressed.”

“You just need a positive mental attitude!” being told to people with mental illness or other disabilities.

A non-disabled classmate viewing the R-word as just another swear word and including it in a poem.

Going to other campus social justice or diversity events, and them not being accessible [for disabled people].

Having to take a longer, less obvious route to get into buildings on campus. [Yes, they consider just having to do this a "micro-aggression" against the disabled.]

I wishit were as simple as that, but what it indicates is very frightening. Remember that what people are not allowed to say soon becomes what they are not allowed to think, which is the basis for the Marxist mind control well reflected in 1984 and Brave New World. I am an old man who will probably die before that is in force but "our boys" will be in the middle of it.

Kind of funny when you think this is the same university where 32 people were shot and killed by one maniac about 10 years ago. You'd think these snowflakes would have some sense of the real evil in the world instead of making it up.

Probably the same retard who decided you can't say "blind", "deaf", dumb", "handicapped", "midget", "dwarf", or "Oriental". In the first six cases you have to say some adverb followed by "challenged". Instead of Oriental now we're supposed to say "Asian" or we're being offensive. I ask you, which term is more accurate? Since "Asian" can refer to anyone from anywhere in Asia, not just the Far East, I don't know how they came up with that one.

Disability.

“She’s so bipolar.” Disabilities are not insults.

“Coworkers at another institution frequently tried to ‘diagnose’ people behind their back, and repeatedly described people with specific disabilities (that I share) as scary, dangerous, awkward, creepy, weird, ect.”

A disabled person being told “You’re so inspirational” for doing an everyday task.

“Don’t call yourself that,” where that refers to me calling myself disabled.

“You have so much to be thankful for, you have no reason to be depressed.”

“You just need a positive mental attitude!” being told to people with mental illness or other disabilities.

They can put the entire English language on their pathetic 'no-no list' for all I care. If a word is applicable or proper for the use I put it to, I will use it, and no-one can lift a finger to make me do otherwise. If something I say is found to be offensive or improper by some self-appointed 'language nazi', that's just too bad. I really don't give a rat's ass anymore.

Probably not. After all "express" is a fast train with few stops, which is hateful to slow trains that make frequent stops such as a commuter train. Don't want to hurt the feelings of the slow trains, now do we.

Thank these brats' teachers. I just read a story of a student with a 4 grade point average who is shown flipping off Kansas State. He said all places of learning across the US was a bad joke and he would learn more just going into business on his own. This is the perfect example of what these places of 'learning' teach. They graduate a class of tree humping Nancy Pelosis. or a brain dead communist thinking they are a part of the collective. A good bitch slapping dealt out by their parents would put a few straight. The rest toss them in the trash cause they sure aren't going to do an employer, the nation or anyone else any good. ISIS may be able to get some use out of them as human shields but would probably say no thanks and use monkeys and vermin for more of a deterrent.

It's re-educate cause you can't re-educate what was never educated in the first place. The word offends them.
