While I appreciate your attention to the issue of campus insanity, Bari, your only an early warner of this issue in your own liberal bubble. "The Closing of the American Mind" was published in the 80's. There was a small army of conservatives ringing alarm bells over campus political correctness and hypersensitivity as far back as the late 90's and early 2000's. You team's response was generally something like "oh, look at the conservative geezers complaining about the kids today." In the next breath, almost invariably, was the "they're old and white and the demographics are on our side, so we really don't need to worry about them."
As I've said before, you are working your way out of a very deep progressive bubble. I was a die-hard libertarian in the early 90's, so I know how hard it is to change your outlook on the world. I commend you for even trying; most adults lack the courage to ever question their most deeply held beliefs. Let alone take significant risks to stand up for them.
I remain very concerned that you will throw us deplorables under the bus as soon as you think you don't need us to defeat the woke anymore. However, you and Nellie are gradually winning me over. You keep trying to connect with us conservatives, and I'll keep trying to forget all those decades of liberals calling me a homophobic racist.
