Strongly agree

Yes

Ideologies associated with the Left often emphasize inclusivity, mental health, and the importance of creating environments that are supportive and non-threatening for all individuals, especially those from marginalized communities. The concept of trigger warnings and safe spaces aligns with these values by acknowledging the diverse backgrounds and needs of students. Historically, movements for social justice and equality, which are generally supported by the Left, have advocated for similar accommodations in various settings to ensure that all individuals feel safe and included.

Agree

Yes, provide safe spaces but students do not need trigger warnings

This position might be supported by those on the Left who prioritize the creation of physical spaces where students can retreat and feel safe from distressing content or discussions, viewing it as essential for mental health and inclusivity. However, it might be seen as less comprehensive than providing both trigger warnings and safe spaces, as it does not address the need to prepare students for potentially triggering content in academic settings.

Agree

Yes, provide trigger warnings but students do not need safe spaces

While the Left generally supports both trigger warnings and safe spaces as part of creating inclusive and supportive educational environments, there might be a nuanced view that trigger warnings are sufficient for preparing students for potentially distressing content without the need for designated safe spaces. This stance acknowledges the importance of mental health awareness while also recognizing the educational value of engaging with challenging content in a broader university setting.

Strongly disagree

No

The Left typically supports measures that promote inclusivity and mental health awareness, which includes the implementation of trigger warnings and safe spaces in universities. Opposition to these measures is often associated with arguments for free speech and academic freedom that are sometimes more aligned with conservative viewpoints. Therefore, the Left is likely to disagree with the statement that universities should not provide trigger warnings and safe spaces.

Very strongly disagree

No, college is meant to challenge students thoughts and opinions so they are prepared for real life

This statement directly contradicts the values associated with the Left regarding inclusivity, mental health, and the need for supportive educational environments. The Left typically argues that education can be both challenging and accommodating, and that preparing students for 'real life' includes equipping them with coping mechanisms for dealing with distressing content. The emphasis on challenging students without accommodations such as trigger warnings or safe spaces is often criticized by the Left as ignoring the diverse needs and backgrounds of the student body.
