      No, they don't have any obligation. They can protect students from the most distressing ideas if they want. The rest of us can address them

      It'd be ideal if students were given the opportunity to learn to counter the worst ideas in society & I'd pick that kind for my daughter.

      And I say yes. Let them air these ideas in a place where academics & intellectuals can pick them apart not just supportive echo chambers

      Then don't go. Don't prevent other people from hearing and making up their own minds.

      Not from ideas it doesn't. They're not there to be protected. They're there to have access to all the ideas that are out there.

      Just don't go and hear speakers if ur easily upset. Let the ppl who want to engage with the ideas make up their own minds.

          Do you understand that we both want to stop these ideas but think different things will work? Its not thinking it bad & me thinking it fine.

          You're saying to just ignore them coz you dont realise it's a problem or don't care because you're a man. (See I can do that too)

          Can I suggest to you some ideas are actually dangerous & it might be a good idea to counter them? You seem not to realise this?

          cliche, but old point to make: who decides that an idea is threatening when no explicit call for violence/erasure has been made?

          LOts of ideas are threatening. The idea that vaccines cause autism for example.

          I've said many times they have no obligation. I can still think & say they're doing it wrong & not send my own child to one who does that.
