In this case the canary is the student newspapers in our universities. These student newspapers are usually the first to spot trends and follow them, and they are all, without exception, giving extensive trigger warnings.
We are being warned to consider feelings.
This is because we are moving from literate rational individualism to feeling tribalism.
Literate rational individualism is based on print and the invention of the printing press in 1440, and feeling tribalism is based on the the invention of the electric telegraph in 1840, and the subsequent radio, TV, telephone, and computer.
Interestingly the literate individual is blind to feeling tribalism and rejects it, demeans it, trying to silence feelings. And as we move into feeling tribalism I can think of nothing more Quixotic than trying to silence feelings, even charging windmills on horseback makes more sense.
And just as we see more and more publicly accused of sexual harassment, we shall see more and more accused of emotional abuse
A case in point is typology central which is based on the values of print and the literate, rational individual, and we prefer to debate rather than listen to each others feeling.
And the picture is emerging that typology central is engaging in institutional emotional abuse.
