Here's another example, where a bisexual student is reprimanded by the professor for saying that he'd be killed in some Muslim countries in a casual conversation overheard by someone.

I am trying to recall when the words "feeling unsafe" and "feeling uncomfortable" seeped in and have become acceptable means of allowing or not allowing discussions on general (i.e. non-personal) topics? It's an insane, downward spiral of free thinking disintegration.
