Quote by Katie Roche

“[...] The social justice warriors paved the way for a Trump government through accusing people of wrongdoing for trivial reasons. This lets actual bad guys slip past. When everyone is bad, who is really bad? If every white person is guilty of racism and white supremacy, what makes Trump worse than any other white person? Or if all men are sexist, what makes Trump more sexist than any other man? When we are constantly hearing about microaggressions, and subtle sexism and racism, it gets hard to know if to take public accusations seriously anymore.”

“Social justice warrior concepts themselves also fosters a mistrust of others. Thanks to the focus on microaggressions and unconscious bias, social just warriors live in a world where everyone is out to hurt them. To social justice warriors, the smallest remark or the most subtle facial expression, might symbolise a deep hatred of them.”

“Who would the average person vote for: a man who says you can become biologically female simply by identifying as such, or a man who says America is being screwed over by every other country in the world? One view is plain wrong. The second is an opinion a lot of people might not agree with, but it can't be shown to be objectively untrue in the way that the former's view can. Most people would choose the latter simply because he sounds less crazy. Most years, the latter man wouldn't have even gotten a look in, but we've created a situation where crazy things now sound perfectly reasonable.”

“Abgang Nr. 1 ...sollten Sie warten, bis Sie selbst gerade etwas gesagt haben, was als Schlußpunkt dienten könnte. Dann lächeln Sie freundlich, strecken den Arm für einen abschließenden Händedruck aus und sagen: "Entschuldigen Sie mich bitte, es war nett, Sie zu treffen." Sie könnten noch hinzufügen: "Ich glaube, dort hinten steht mein Chef (Kunde, Partner, Mann etc.)." ... Wenn Sie sich einmal gelöst haben, sollten Sie sich sichtbar in einen anderen Teil des Raumes bewegen. Sie machen damit deutlich, dass Sie wirklich jemand anderen gesehen haben oder etwas Bestimmtes tun mußten und dass Sie Ihren bisherigen Gesprächspartner nicht einfach verlassen haben, weil Sie gelangweilt waren.”

“Befestigen Sie das Namensschild immer auf Ihrer rechten Seite. Wenn Sie Ihrem Gegenüber die Hand geben, richtet sich Ihr Blick nämlich auf seine rechte Seite. Bei einem Schild, das auf der linken Seite angebracht ist, muss Ihr Blick abschweifen - und dies fällt auf!”
