Offensive language serves a purpose- without it we have no measure for what is tolerable. It’s good to get offended - it means you care about something. It’s good to have that ability. And learning how to deal with getting offended builds character.
Instead of removing the offense we learn how to manage our emotions in response to it.
The more I hear about such things I realize the Left has a fundamentally different approach to life in general, from the Right. The Left chooses to eliminate or avoid unpleasant experiences while the Right fortifies and faces them.
One builds strength and maturity- the other weakness and immaturity.
"She added that “extremely bothersome” alarms triggered by such language “last approximately two minutes." - So a student could yell offensive speech every couple of minutes and completely shut down a teachers lecture. May have some possibilities ?
A lot more entertaining and detailed than just the list, btw. Also, this clip shows a younger George Carlin in his prime. I saw him once maybe 35 years ago and he looked just like this. He had a barstool nearby with a glass of water on it, and no other props -- and managed to be more interesting and energizing than a $300 million super-hero movie.
Shit

This didn't just happen. It's been on for 20 years or better.
Wow. What ever happened to the age old addage, "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me?"
Apparently we are back to sticks and stones to settle debate. It's progressive!
I'd imagine a Strong Proud Black Trans Woman
This reminds me of south park "insecurities " episode. They are always spot on.
George Carlin's 7 words you can't say on Television
