As reported by CBC news (Canada):
The paper quotes one student as saying, "Scales are very triggering" for people with eating disorders.
"Next it will be the mirrors. #bringbackthescale," wrote one Carleton student on Facebook, while another said online, "Are you for real, Carleton? What a sick joke."
The university's decision to declare gravity to be "intolerant" is, of course, entirely predictable given academia's mission of teaching students to believe in "feelings" rather than the laws of nature.
As witnessed by the science-obliterating "climate change" cult also being widely taught in today's universities, what matters in government-contorted science education is not getting the right answer but feeling like you've sufficiently conformed to the socially acceptable delusions of your obedient, brain-damaged peers.
The problem, of course, with abandoning reality and replacing it with "feelings" is that feelings can always be hurt in yet another offensive way nobody thought of before... especially if you're an intolerant, psychologically fragile libtard snowflake who gets "triggered" by machines that measure gravity's pull on your body mass. As a perfect example of this, the wellness programs manager at the university, a man woman trans LIFE FORM named Bruce Marshall (we can't assume its gender, can we?) explained why gravity sucks for university wellness programs:
"If you need a number to focus on in regard to reaching certain fitness goals we suggest using girth measurements. You can start by recording measurements in multiple areas, for example your torso, hips, chest, legs and arms. You would then revisit these measurements after a few weeks to keep tabs on your progress."
Ah yes, but what happens when students using measuring tapes are triggered by the girth of their own hips? Aaargh!
The answer, of course, is to BAN ALL NUMBERS, including those on measurement tapes. All measuring tapes handed out at universities shall henceforth be BLANK, as shall all the minds of the students and faculty...
That's the ultimate goal of academia's contorted collision with social justice f##ktardery, you see: The complete banning of integers, words, gravity, logic and reason. (Who says $100,000 in student debt wasn't worth it?)
They're also banning words, too, because words can trigger people. That's the new education system: Ban all numbers, and words, and laws of physics. Then declare yourself to be the "intellectual elite" because you're obviously cognitively superior to those who never went to college and therefore didn't earn your degree in "F##ktardery Studies."
With all numbers banned, and gravity banned, and intelligent, rational thinking banned, everyone will finally be safe ... and progressive, libtard student snowflakes can finally crawl back into the wombs of their mothers to return to that ultimate "safe space" from which they were first triggered in a sickening episode called "birth" -- which, even now, is being called a horrible thing because it means a courageous abortion wasn't committed first.
Reality, you see, is just too damn offensive for students -- and university faculty -- to handle anymore. From this day forward, their efforts shall be refocused on stripping away every objective reminder of a real world that exists outside their delusional, fantasy land bubbles where unicorns fly through the air, propelled by magical farting rainbows and government-approved "safe space" university zones where social justice feelings reign supreme over the laws of physics.
To all crybully snowflake college students who are "triggered" by reality, here is your entire education summed up in one illustration:
Mike Adams (aka the "Health Ranger") is the founding editor of NaturalNews.com, a best selling author (#1 best selling science book on Amazon.com called "Food Forensics"), an environmental scientist, a patent holder for a cesium radioactive isotope elimination invention, a multiple award winner for outstanding journalism, a science news publisher and influential commentator on topics ranging from science and medicine to culture and politics.
Mike Adams also serves as the lab science director of an internationally accredited (ISO 17025) analytical laboratory known as CWC Labs. There, he was awarded a Certificate of Excellence for achieving extremely high accuracy in the analysis of toxic elements in unknown water samples using ICP-MS instrumentation.
In his laboratory research, Adams has made numerous food safety breakthroughs such as revealing rice protein products imported from Asia to be contaminated with toxic heavy metals like lead, cadmium and tungsten. Adams was the first food science researcher to document high levels of tungsten in superfoods. He also discovered over 11 ppm lead in imported mangosteen powder, and led an industry-wide voluntary agreement to limit heavy metals in rice protein products.
Adams has also helped defend the rights of home gardeners and protect the medical freedom rights of parents. Adams is widely recognized to have made a remarkable global impact on issues like GMOs, vaccines, nutrition therapies, human consciousness.
