I know the guy they marked "swipe left." They were not well informed of what this was going to be.
PointlesslyNecessary
I would love to hear more about that
bunnyrut
a trigger warning would be about something that caused trauma to people that could cause them to relive it if they see it. for example: (1)
bunnyrut
a graphic rape scene for someone who was raped. a war scene with people dying for a vet. a totaled car for someone in an accident that (2)
bunnyrut
killed a loved one. not some fucking stupid thing like "they said 'she' instead of 'he' (3)

The girl with red glasses looked so ashamed for laughing at it but it's hilarious! They're hurting themselves by denying it, IMO.

I think the whole "political correctness gone mad" is quite a bit overblown anyways. Most of it is generally good advice about not being a

dick to people. We can all still laugh at Daniel Tosh ripping on people and also terms like "first-year" instead of "freshman". No big deal.

Less the value of learning they provide, although this can be put into question and more the incubation, ivory tower of liberalism, home to.

For the amount of complaining about it I have yet to see a non-sarcastic trigger warning in my life.

Well, with the way your comments worded I was just curious. As someone interested in STEM himself I know way too many people like that.

Well to answer your question. No I don't think that at all.

I have a friend who was attacked and suffered a traumatic brain injury. We were in church and someone in a video suffered something similar.
Ashplesauce540
She threw up instantly in the pew. No one thought to tell her this might feel too real.
pjl80
Which makes perfect sense. The problem is that other people have made it into a slippery slope, where they use the term more ideological.
MYBEERISCHEAP
So... she could have avoided vomiting if only everyone gave 5 seconds of their life, a collective lifetime, to an intro warning? She can vom
Ashplesauce540
The pastor, her good friend since college could have said this might be hard. She would have exited until it was over.
Ashplesauce540
The vomit was sudden, she tried to leave the sanctuary and there was just no time.
MYBEERISCHEAP
Fair, but the momentum of the comments for this image implies a need for warnings before a performance, which IMO is silly
TeddyBearsPicnic
I hope you got a chance to warn the people who might be triggered by vomit
Ashplesauce540
She said oh shit no...turned grayish. No chain reaction like in movies. My husband and I just helped clean it.
almightymakerofthings
So ... she threw up. Big deal? Not to be insensitive but bad stuff happens all the time and this is very mild.
Ashplesauce540
That's true. It would have been nice to have. Heads up. She wasn't angry didn't complain just cleaned it up.
almightymakerofthings
Lots of things "would be nice". It would be nice if I wasn't downvoted for sensible opinions. Yet I sometimes am. *shrug*

The worlds not perfect.

I've never been attacked, and left for dead in a parking garage. You could literally see her brain. She never complains or says she scared

I don't really see the big deal. If it's there, you can either prepare yourself, or give up on your field. If it isn't, someone (1/2)

I think you need content warnings on stuff that's really gross, or violent, or sexual or a combination. That shit can fuck people up

1. I think the big deal is real life doesn't work like that. You're gonna see, hear, and feel shit that you won't like. Coddling young

2. adults like that won't adequately prepare you for the challenges of the real world.
StonesOnTheHill
Since when does college prepare you for the real world? Jokes aside, a flaw in your argument is that the people who'd need such (1/2)
StonesOnTheHill
warnings wouldn't be helped by going into something that would trigger a PTSD reaction unprepared anyways.(2/2)
clutchthepearls
The flaw there is that the people that actually NEED the warning are most likely a very small percent of those screaming about it.
StonesOnTheHill
ramps. So what if some people are bitching about it, if it means that they're there for the people who need it.(2/2)
StonesOnTheHill
So some people who don't need it still want it? That'd be like complaining if some people with legs made sure there are wheelchair (1/2)

People with legs aren't complaining about ramps for themselves because they tripped up some stairs once.

'Trigger warning' now has to come with a 'content warning' in case the word trigger upsets people who are upset about guns - I shit you not

Isn't it still widely agreed by actual professional therapists that trigger/content warnings are long-term more harmful than exposure?

Pencillin
CW and TW are different, tho...I thought?
TeddyBearsPicnic
How?
Pencillin
TWs warn about events that commonly have PTSD, like rape, child abuse or torture 1/2
Pencillin
CWs are simple notifiers of content that people would prefer to avoid, like war, violence, improper sexual conduct, etc
Pencillin
IMO, TWs are maaaybe legit but CWs are definitely going too far, esp when they squelch peoples' ability to go outside their comfort zone
jimwormmaster
Depends. I can understand a content warning in some cases, so those that didn't want to see such things have the choice to avoid it.
Pencillin
Yeah, it really becomes a problem when it leads to a reader not approaching anything that challenges their perceptions.
jimwormmaster
Like, for example, the ratings systems on tv (graphic violence, nudity, etc). But yeah, some are too far/silly.
IntellectualTerrorist
Putting "content warning" makes more sense to me, we've been using that for decades anyway, more or less, for extreme stuff.
TeddyBearsPicnic
But often it isn't used for 'extreme stuff' but as a way of attributing disapproval to dissenting opinions.
IntellectualTerrorist
I dunno, apparently I don't go to any sites with those types of discussions. I've pissed enough people off on reddit. And this site.
TeddyBearsPicnic
My concern is that this new freedom & respect for personal identity seems very one sided & seems to be silencing a lot of people.

Don't get me wrong, I am very far away from thinking that France is better than US politic or society-wise..You guys are just more paradoxal

Aren't movie and video game ratings a form of trigger warning?
SpecialProjectY
All games that went out from Black Isle Studios had numerous moments that could trigger tenderhearted beings nowadays.
ImSureIHaveAnAccount
Not intentionally, but as a side benefit yeah. And then there are games that should have a trigger warning, like the end of F.E.A.R. 2. 1/2
Panzer89
No, they aren't. A rating is a tool for parents to judge whether a movie/game is appropriate for their children.
MostIndeedlySo
If only parents would actually care what their kids were playing so that we, the devs, didn't get the flack when a kid plays M/R rated game.
grimertop90
Hypothetically, also for adults to judge whether a game is appropriate for themselves, not unlike the purpose of a trigger warning
Panzer89
Except there is no way a rating can contain every possible trigger an individual may have, making it highly ineffective as a warning.
grimertop90
I mean, the same could be said of trigger warnings themselves
ImSureIHaveAnAccount
PTSD sense of the word. 3/2
charlie2979
Really doubt you can put a warning before a jump scare. Kinda defeats the point.
ImSureIHaveAnAccount
In other words, it's a horror game, you go in expecting that. What you get in the ending is a potentially traumatizing event that is not 1/2
McAllisterFawkes
Honestly, jump scares can just go fuck off forever.
ImSureIHaveAnAccount
I was REALLY not talking about any jump scares. At the end of the game you get raped. That maybe should have had a trigger warning....
ImSureIHaveAnAccount
talked about or hinted at and especially is not included in the marketing of the game. 2/2
peaceandpenguins
Some websites have a detailed list of things in games to warn people about where that sort of thing might...trigger...an anxiety attack.

I am NOT talking about any jump scares. Obviously you haven't played F.E.A.R. 2.
TheReaper95
In the ending of FEAR 2 you're raped by a super power mind thingy woman. It's a tad weird.

They could have put "sexual content" on the ESRB/PEGI label. But the scene is really not that big deal.
ImSureIHaveAnAccount
I disagree, but still. And the ESRB short blurb includes "Partial Nudity" and "Sexual Themes", but I don't think that really covers it. 1/2

of said rape.

Yes, I know. I read it. And played it. And it didn't really bother me, especially since the scene is spliced with 1 second long flashes...
ImSureIHaveAnAccount
It really bothered me, but it wouldn't have if there was any warning about it. Definitely not saying it should be censored or anything....

Which, despite obviously being a horror game, has a legitimately surprising, potentially triggering scene at the end. In the actual 2/2
