Excerpt:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Snowflakes don\u2019t like being called snowflakes. The derogatory term perfectly encapsulates both their extreme fragility and their tendency to melt down at a moment\u2019s notice, so they really can\u2019t stand it. It probably causes them a lot of stress. So, of course, people keep using it.<\/em><\/p>\n

That, if the New York Times<\/a> is to be believed, could probably be considered some sort of assault.<\/em><\/p>\n

People who say things often do so without any regard for the health and safety of those who might hear their words. At best, they\u2019re callous and selfish. At worst, they\u2019re murderers. Their weapon of choice?\u00a0 …Unpleasant opinions.<\/em><\/p>\n

Well, the Times isn\u2019t going to take this lying down. On Friday<\/a>, they wondered: Is there really any difference between speech and physical violence?\u00a0 If there is, what is it?<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

The answer might seem obvious: Physical violence is physically damaging; verbal statements aren\u2019t. \u201cSticks and stones can break my bones, but words will never hurt me.\u201d<\/h3>\n

But scientifically speaking, it\u2019s not that simple. Words can have a powerful effect on your nervous system. Certain types of adversity, even those involving no physical contact, can make you sick, alter your brain \u2014 even kill neurons \u2014 and shorten your life.<\/h3>\n

Your body\u2019s immune system includes little proteins called proinflammatory cytokines that cause inflammation when you\u2019re physically injured. Under certain conditions, however, these cytokines themselves can cause physical illness. What are those conditions? One of them is chronic stress.<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Chronic stress, it seems, can hinder the process by which the cells in your body divide. The more stress you endure, the faster the cellular replication degrades, and the sooner you die. According to the New York Times, words you disagree with are very stressful. Therefore, it only stands to reason that certain forms of free speech are so inflammatory that they\u2019re actually sending people to an early grave.<\/em><\/p>\n
