“Danger Spaces” for Free Speech and Open Discourse

November 2, 2015 by V the K

Liberals (or Progressives, or Leftists, depending on the degree of honesty with which they are willing to label themselves) especially feminists are fanatical about shutting off avenues of Free Speech that questions their dogma. Some feminists demand that, when a speaker they don’t agree with comes to a college campus, they must be given safe spaces with coloring books and stuffed animals, lest the mere presence of such a speaker cause them trauma. Some feminists have demanded making the entire internet a “Safe Space” by outright banning of disagreeable comments from the internet.

The correct response for those of us who cherish open discourse is to label spaces where free and open dialogue occurs as “Danger Spaces.” First of all, it sounds cool. Second, it creates a dramatic contrast with the the prissy “Safe Spaces” demanded by the feminist left. Third, it brands Free Speech as something dangerous and exciting and thereby encourages people to seek it out.

Fourth, and I think this is the most important thing, it points up how idiotic and silly the leftist/feminist notion that free speech is so dangerous they have to create “Speech-Proof” shelters to protect themselves from it really is.

    Hey, if they can make a pepper spray pellet gun that sells, more power to them! That’s capitalism.

    If it works, even better!

    I don’t know about today’s feminists and their safe spaces. Back in the day before the crazies drove out real feminism, it was about taking martial arts so you could kick rear. The long term goal was taking over the world and making men sex slaves. I saw this in some 1960s rerun movie on tv so I know it must be true. It was starring James Coburn. /s
