Libs do not want a variety of thought but only adherence to theirsThe woke mentality of modern education has created this unfortunate circumstance. When they started allowing students to protest, even violently, against this or that speaker coming to campus, the die was cast. They have replaced common sense, respect, integrity, open minds and liberty with mob rule.
It would have been unheard of in my day that any speaker coming to campus would not have been treated with the utmost respect and welcomed no matter how radical or unpopular his or her views might be. We students were often assigned to attend lectures by these people so that we could discuss them in class later. So we heard from Birchers and Russian Communists, Keynesians and economic anarchists, pro Jim Crow and anti Jim Crow arguments, you name it, etc. And I don't think any of us emerged from that and took our places as adults in society with any dangerously radical ideas or beliefs whatsoever.
We were far better educated than the tunnel vision that passes for education these days.
