Not satisfied with their safe spaces and trigger warnings, "students" at UW-Madison are always looking for something to be outraged or offended or triggered about. And they've found another one: ice cream.
Students at the University of Wisconsin-Madison are demanding more “inclusive” ice cream at the university-owned Babcock Hall Dairy Store, arguing that current ingredients in some of the store’s products are discriminatory toward certain religions.
Eight members of the Associated Students of Madison put forth a resolution last week declaring that Babcock ice cream, which uses beef gelatin, discriminates against the school’s Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist and vegetarian communities. A university spokeswoman told Campus Reform, which first reported the story, that the school already produces and sells ice cream, sherbet and lactose-free options that are made with a plant-based stabilizer and are gelatin-free.
That ain't good enough. The kids aren't required to go to the store, and they're not required to purchase a product that they may find somehow offensive. That doesn't matter; they want to force the store to alter its products in order to be "inclusive".
Maybe you like their ice cream; that doesn't matter. The kids know what's best for everyone.
This is why I refer to places like UW as institutions of higher vegetation. And why I sometimes use the category tag "growing vegetables".
Both apply. I'm really tired of this insanity.
