On what do you base this view?But that is *exactly the result* of the current strain of political correctness. First, they do it because the left, and particularly the left on college campuses, has completely jumped the shark on multiple issues. It is particularly strong in youth culture, and that is part of the reason why this sort of trolling is more common among the youth. It has become downright reality-denying and stifling to the point of absurdity, in many cases. Just try to discuss issues regarding gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, race, religion etc. with college students these days. They rarely discuss anything of substance, and rather, they just pat each other on the back for holding virtuous stances. I blame the humanities and what passes for scholarship nowadays. It is invariable the sheep that go into grad school these days, and likely has been that way for some time.
My experiences being a student on several different college campuses over the last 10 years or so. I have many friends in the humanities and frequently discuss these subjects. I am not the only person talking about this either, so don't feign ignorance. It is particularly egregious at elite institutions.
