Why Students Are Miserable: The Coddling of the American Mind
From StosselTV
Many colleges no longer teach critical thinking. They teach censorship. And victimhood. These ideas make students depressed and anxious.
The new documentary, “The Coddling of the American Mind,” ( thecoddlingmovie.com ) tells stories of students who fell for the indoctrination.
Before college, Kimi Katiti was full of confidence. But at the Art Institute of California, she learned she was a victim. “I was introduced to microaggressions,” she explains. “This set of thought processes was really unhealthy and was making me miserable.”
Lucy Kross at Stanford was taught that Ben Shapiro’s ideas “put black, brown, trans, queer, and Muslim students at risk.” She found that embracing woke language made her more popular. “When I started to use the vocabulary of like, marginalized, intersectional, hegemonic…People just kind of smiled a little bit more.” Over time, she, and others, concluded that such ideas hurt her.
Our new video looks at their experience navigating campus indoctrination, and how they escaped it.
After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.

For years, major corporations bragged about their wonderful Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs. They’re good for business and morally correct, they said. So why are they now cutting those programs?
Robby Starbuck says these programs once got a lot of buy-in, because people wanted to be nice! But DEI came to mean much more than just being nice.
Starbuck says what it looked like in practice was “crazy trainings” and “overtly racist hiring practices.” Now lots of people agree with him.
Companies actually take notice when Starbuck tells his many followers about their DEI programs. Often the programs get dropped.
That’s the power of free speech.

Socialism is popular!
Youtube and TikTok stars say socialism “maximizes freedom… increases life-expectancy,” and “improves home-ownership.” It’s so absurd!
I asked my producer, Kristin Tokarev, to investigate their claims. Her video debunks their propaganda.
Influencers now rack up millions of views claiming socialism works better than capitalism. Here’s some of what they get terribly wrong!
