Institutionalized Permissiveness is the advocating of policy, business practices or legislation that makes no sense and that allows for the lowest possible standard to be validated and thrive.
In California, homeless people have been legislated different rights than other citizens. Pissing on ATM's and shitting in pubic is allowed and police are legally bound to not do anything about it. The Institutionalized Permissiveness of our California State Legislator's have advocated for the homeless to devalue themselves by legalizing the lowest possible standard, absent of any decorum we hold to other civilians in our community.
The teacher was fired for using a red pen to correct his students' papers. Colleges, High schools, Middle schools and Elementary schools have "outlawed" red pens because it hurts childrens' feelings. This is an academic policy that is a perfect example of Institutionalized Permissiveness, an allowing of an idiotic policy to reign.
