Searched and didn't see this posted..

Pretty amazing segment, I'm surprised CNN let him do it.

"American universities seem committed to every kind of diversity except intellectual diversity. Conservative voices and views are being silenced entirely"

"It's an attitude of self-righteousness that says we are so pure, we're so morally superior, we cannot bear to hear an idea with which we disagree," he said.

Are you having a stroke? You post so incoherently and with so much hate.

he's not wrong. it's problem that hopefully will be addressed soon

that having been said, most people are blind to their own hypocrisy. This board is a perfect example of that.

He can't help himself

He's surrounded by bat shite insane and seems Tuesday recognize it but realizes that his side can't win by rebuking the bat shite insane

It's kinda funny really.

The problem non bat shite insane liberals have right now is coming to terms with the fact that they CREATED their bat shite insane wing

What did they think would happen when they portrayed everyone who disagreed with them not as wrong, but as motivated by hate on par with Nazis?

This shite was perfectly predictable. In fact, it WAS PREDICTED!

And sanctions knows it. So. It's a significant internal conflict at this point

And most people also engage in in-group, out-grouping and dehumanization. It's part of the human condition and it takes effort to minimize its effects.

How many people on here reflexively down vote any and all things they perceive to be liberal? Or coming from a liberal? Or rub against their narrative?

How many people pile on a "wrong-thinker" the moment they post? Tell them if they don't like(think) their way, leave!

I think Fareed's point is a good one because college is supposed to be the place you at times engage with uncomfortable ideas as part of the process of mental growth. Being able to confront problems intellectually as opposed to primitively.

But this thread jumping at the chance to point and deride the "out-group" illustrates at its root, this is not a partisan issue.

Both dominant ideologies are filled with stupid, intolerant simpletons.

Maybe it's because I had a hard time understanding your posts, but I swear you were on the complete opposite side of the Trumpkin, anti-Trumper like a week ago.
