The official National Archives website has added a trigger warning to the US Constitution, the Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights which cautions that the documents contain “harmful language.” (summit.news)

This is a misleading article. Try visiting the NARA site yourself, and you'll see that the "harmful language" banner appears on every page. It has nothing to do with any particular document, but rather displays as a persistent news alert.

It even appears on the general records group itself: https://catalog.archives.gov/id/340

Somebody voted you down, but you're 100% correct. This banner seems to appear everywhere.

Now, having said that, the very fact that someone decided that this banner was necessary or a good idea is fucking clown world.

What ever happened to "sticks and stones?"

Mental health only matters to a mentally weak population. You think people who don’t know where their next meal is coming from care how you have anxiety before a college exam?

By putting a banner everywhere even when it's mostly or wholly not warranted, that just renders the banner meaningless.

It's meaningless, but not worthless.

It'll keep the people who have been psychologically abused by being told that the entire world is out to get them constantly reminded that the entire world is out to get them.
