re: Berkeley professors lose their minds over free speech

Cal-Berkeley has 1522 professors, and like usual we find one or two professors who make these types of arguments. In this case, 0.13% of the entire faculty in one of the most left leaning places in the country presenting this view.

But it seems like every time this a professor presents these types of stupid viewpoints, it's picked up immediately, and largely spread by the right wing websites and right wing commentators because it's evidence that the this is some widely held view by the other >99%.

Yet, they never seem to consider that they are reinforcing these irrational individuals and their attention seeking behavior and by focusing on every incident and extrapolating it, they are creating the pervasiveness in their own subjective reality instead of in the objective reality.
