You could have had a safe space in your high school cafeteria, or anywhere you wanted, to play MTG or whatever other nerdy game. A person is responsible for creating their own safe space - one cannot control other people, but one can control themselves and their reactions to others and what they say. We were all intrinsically blessed with the gift of free will as humans, which allows us to decide how certain things, like the words of another, will affect us. We weren't intrinsically blessed with safe spaces.
