"Trigger warnings" are "Just another form of information warfare" used by the Left
"Trigger warnings" are warnings issued to students by leftist professors before presenting material the Left doesn't like. The ostensible purpose of these warnings is to protect students from anxiety, by giving them a chance to leave the room without being "forced" to see material which may make them uncomfortable.
Now a Harvard study has found that actually increase anxiety among students:
Researchers reported that participants who were given trigger warnings prior to reading the material reported higher anxiety from the material.
Which, of course, is the real point of trigger warnings. They're used to label politically-disfavored material as traumatizing to "woke" people. Essentially, the warnings tell young moonbats that those "down with the Cause" will be triggered by the material they're about to see or hear.
The ostensible reason for "trigger warnings" was to protect "sensitive" students. But in fact they're just another form of information warfare.
