Greg Lukianoff Wishes Business Wasn't Booming

Original Air Date - 9/8/22
Greg Lukianoff (The Coddling of the American Mind , Unlearning Liberty ) sits down with Bridget for a conversation about free speech on college campuses, how social media sped everything up and created the trend of cancel culture, how much worse things have gotten since Coddling was published, and how people just lost their minds since Covid hit. They discuss how deeply messed up it is to tell people they're more fragile than they are, how the victimhood mentality is undermining cognitive behavioral therapy, the decline in college attendance, Greg's work with FIRE (Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression) and why they're seeing an uptick in their caseload, how people are always talking about a "pendulum swing" but that's not how history works, and why you have to care about what's going on at elite colleges because it's going to mess up the rest of society downstream.
