A trigger warning is a preface issued before discussing or displaying material that some may find distressing due to past experiences. Trigger warnings are typically used by SJW in an ad hoc fashion without any regard for the manner that triggering can actually occur or the fact that avoidance can actually make certain psychological conditions worse.
The use of trigger warnings peaked in early 2018 and is now in decline.[1] It is common for SJWs to adopt new phrases and discard old ones every few years.
Research suggests that trigger warnings don't help people code with or assist them in avoiding triggers. Rather they tend to just make people more anxious.[2]
