This is a video by Neel Kolhatkar, an Australian comedian, and is quite relevant in today's climate. It's got a million views in a day and is goo goo viral.

Did this hit too close to home or what?

Yeah, it hits the target pretty clearly.  Just want to add that South Park this season have hit the mark as well, if not better.

It's scarily accurate. Meanwhile back here in the real world, stuff like this actually goes on at the library of a college campus...

So where is the "safe space" for the students who are actually trying to learn and make something of themselves, hmmmm? Riddle me that, SJWs...

I guess schools have changed a lot since I graduated.

Then again you all claim to be older than me in your profiles. Well, maybe you're in grad school or something...

I finished undergrad in May 2014 and I feel that I've dodged a major bullet... Things have really gotten out of hand in college campuses. We have:

- Yale students getting all riled up over Halloween costumes
- Melissa Click and her supporters thinking the 1st Amendment only applies to them and not the media
- Black students getting offended when a Chinese international student says that black people can be racist

Neat attempted parody of college I guess ?

I dislike extreme activists too but I can at least guarantee that lecture time is almost always formal ...

I don't really see how the activities of a bunch of students on campus is meant to reflect the situation in the classroom. When I watched the video I expected the joke to be at the expense of the system. Instead it glosses over the real problem while making a joke about minorities being given a free pass... for 7 minutes... what does this have to do with education?

So, what's the real problem?

I dunno, I've been in college environments this whole time, working in a science lab and teaching science classes similar to the math class this video is on and I haven't seen any notable changes.  I do the same shit I did years ago.  College campuses can be ridiculous and irritating at times, but I don't think they've changed overallin the last few years.
