/v/Showerthoughts is a subverse for you to share all those thoughts, ideas, or philosophical questions that race through your head while in the shower.
"Showerthought" is a loose term that applies to any thought you might have while carrying out a routine task like showering, driving, or daydreaming.
Please be respectful of others' submissions. If you disagree, explain why in the comments. Downvoats are reserved for submissions you don't like or comments that do not add to the discussion, not opinions with which you disagree.
RULES
-
Please refrain from shower "observations;" we've heard them all before
-
Ideas for Voat features should be posted in /v/ideasforvoat, even if you think of them while in the shower
The spirit of this subverse's rules is to foster a community where dissent, free thought, and open discussion are tolerated, limited only to trolling, excessive abuse, site-breaking rules, or content that is better suited for another subverse. All moderation activity should operate within this spirit.

Nope. It's America and they are allowed to act like asshats in areas that permit it so long as they aren't hurting anyone or damaging anything. You can't punish people for being annoying. But you can demand that you have a say in the atmosphere you're paying for. You go for education. If the place you're paying to educate you allows all groups, all people to speak so long as they aren't physically harming anyone, that's one thing. That's freedom of speech in a free land. Welcome to being a grown up. You're going to learn tolerance here - you don't like to love them, you don't have to listen to them, but you must allow them to exist so long as they aren't actually harming you. (Your fucking feelings don't count. Grow up.) But when you allow one group that is harmful, but not another due to pressure from students, then you should anticipate refunding the students you've alienated. You're choosing sides and becoming political in an educational forum.
'Those kinds' change every generation. You would be putting rules in place today that could be used against you in a few years. That's a bad idea.

I didn't think about that, thank you.
