Washington Post Urges Colleges To Offer ‘Climate Anxiety’ Counseling

American college campuses are urged to waste money to validate feelings of anxiety over ‘climate change’.

You can insert your own “snowflake” punchline, but this is not a joke.

On September 12, The Washington Post highlighted the “critical” need for what it called “climate stress counseling services” at universities across the country.

“It was hard to feel as though there was a ‘level of understanding of how dire the situation is,’” one student told the Post.

Oh Lord, here come the sob stories.

Eco-anxiety is commonly used to describe people’s concerns about ‘climate change’, but psychologists say it is better to use more general terms such as ‘climate stress’ and ‘climate distress’ — terms that encompass the array of feelings someone may have in response to climate change,” according to The Post.

You’ve got to be kidding me.

The Post indicated that these “counseling services” are to “validate” students’ feelings of helplessness and anxiety over climate change.

So yes, that means that taxpayer money that goes into public universities is paying for students to have their feelings over climate change “validated.”

What the frick is happening to our society!?

More lunacy indicated that these university support groups needed places to “manage despair and grief related to the future of the planet.”

At meetings, participants would choose an object in nature they resonate with — including leaves, flowers, twigs, stones, shells — sparking conversation and allowing students to connect to each other’s experiences.

To take it a step further, the Post indicated that “experts” suggested that counselors seek special training to help people with “eco-anxiety” as it takes a special type of psycho to think that people need therapy over ‘climate change’.

Here’s what I expect these support groups to look like:

The Washington Post not only published this dumb story on its website but even spent money printing it out for the September 16 edition of the paper.

Sure, the climate may be experiencing some changes but dwelling on it and having “support groups” to talk about twigs, flowers and stones is not going to do anything except validate stupid feelings.

    They care about trees, but it’s ok to kill trees to build colleges, chairs to sit at tables with, and their own homes? Destruction of plant life and animal habitat to power their mobile devices.

    How many dead carcasses used as pencils does the college have? In the video, aren’t they damaging, perhaps killing plants simply by kneeling on them, or do anything lesser than trees not matter? How many plants die to feed vegetarians, not including insects crushed by the machinery tyres.

    This is the problem with these hypocrites. Get a grip!! Is what I say.

    Perhaps ‘hypocrites’ is a bit harsh. Children, with a lot of growing up to do is more appropriate. This is the human race, right?

    These poorly educated dolts are causing my anxiety. They want us to live in fear of a nonexistent existential threat.

    One of the things that really pisses off about the climate hoax is all the trillions of dollars companies have spent and will continue to spend to get to carbon neutral that could have gone to projects that actually help the environment and local communities, grow/improve their business and more $ to their employees.
