The “triggering” hit new levels during the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) National Convention in Georgia this past weekend. In leaked clips of the event, Democratic Socialists lash out at each other for various offenses, such as using “gendered language” and “whispering.” Adding to the bizarre nature of the event, which comes off as a satirical skit being laid on a bit too thick, members of DSA whine about what triggers them by first announcing a “point of personal privilege.”
“Uh, quick point of privilege, quick point of personal privilege, um guys — first of all, James Jackson, Sacramento, he/him,” a man from the convention interrupts in one of the viral clips. “I just want to say, can we please keep the chatter to the minimum? I’m one of the people who’s very, very prone to sensory overload. There’s a lot of whispering and chattering going on. It’s making it very difficult for me to focus. Please, I know we’re all fresh and ready to go, but can we please just keep the chatter to a minimum? It’s affecting my ability to focus. Thank you.”
The chair answers, “Thank you, comrade.”
The peace was short-lived, however. A loud angry male voice chimes in, “Point of personal privilege! Point of personal privilege! Please do not use gendered language to address everyone!”
“Okay,” the chair responds weakly.
