‘AMERICAN’ IS AN OFFENSIVE TERM, EXPLAINS US COLLEGE’S NEW STYLE GUIDE

It’s a situation we’ve all found ourselves in at some time or another: it’s a dark night in a strange part of town; you’re lost and slightly afraid, when suddenly – the horror – you find yourself surrounded by a menacing gang of crop-haired lesbians.

Or people who aren’t necessarily white or cis-gendered. Or Americans.

Or maybe: “How do I avoid unwittingly provoking them through my unconscious microaggressions?”

Colleges are too radicalized and should lose tax payer funding.
