So the other day, I talked about calling out, and bfp posted about calling out yesterday and asked:

    "the question is: where is there *any* room in the social justice swarm style calling out to respect "triggers"? When the very justification of social justice swarm style is the swarm has been triggered? also, admitting to being triggered requires you to be fairly vulnerable—something I'm not very inclined to do in front of people telling me to ->-bleeped-<- off and accusing me of triggering just because I exist (just happened recently). I did say I'm triggered, and for whatever reason, the group backed off—but it about killed me to admit it...."
