From Campus Reform:

The president of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE), Greg Lukianoff, told Fox Business’ Adam Shapiro that college students are “absolutely kidding” themselves if they believe they’re safer in a world where free speech is censored.

Before beginning his interview with Lukianoff on his Talkenomics podcast, Shapiro warned listeners, “Before I continue…I want to issue a trigger warning, because some of the things we talk about today…might be microaggressions. I’m a walking microaggression.
