Listen, just because all professors seem to be left winged loons as they implement safe zones and shout down ideas that make them uncomfortable in no way means it is a conspiracy.

That's just crazy talk. 🙄

I've been around in academic circles for quite a while now. Not once have I seen a professor "implement safe zones" or "shout down ideas that make them comfortable."

Could it be the reporting of the Völkischer Beobachter does not accurately portray academia?
