Question of the Week

Living on the college campus, I notice how people like to advocate for equal rights and fairness for everyone. In doing so, we often are very concerned about other people's feelings and try to remain politically correct as much as possible. For some, it's become and ideology that's so strong that if anyone else undermines this philosophy, he or she is seen as narrowminded and inferior to others. This ideal is so strong in the college culture that people do not seem to be able to formulate their own opinion in fear of offending other people. The question of the week is this: have cultural relativism, the need to appease everybody, and political correctness lead to a bunch of mindless individuals who cannot formulate their own opinions?
