There's some irony here that people who argue, well, you shouldn't coddle students, but don't you dare give them a trigger warning. I think the world would be better off with more trigger warnings. Just just day to day. Like, I just haven't have conversations with somebody and also they're telling me this disgusting operation to add or or something. Nobody thinks like that unless you're already like, your brain has been exposed to this, like, culture war virus.
The great Paul Bloom returns to the show to explore the many mysteries of Todd Field’s 2022 film “Tár.” Is it a ghost story? A movie about cancel culture and abuse of power? Guilt? Professional disappointment? The anxiety of getting old, losing touch with youth and reality? Reminds me of my freshman year at Smith…
Plus – Paul gets into trouble on Twitter for saying he’s mildly pro-trigger warnings in certain cases. But is he ignoring the science???
