I'm not on the Right but nice try! Independent. If you choose to overlook that the vast, vast majority of colleges and universities are already indoctrination machines for the Left, and focus your ire on one college in Florida, you don't care about academic freedom because students across the nation are being given one side as their only option.

I don't want to speak for Miller, but maybe he/she'd be saying the same thing about a left-leaning institution if it had been the focus of the episode.
Well d’uh, I think anyone would have to have been living under a rock to not understand the problem with academia more broadly, but the idea that the solution is a disingenuous blowhard like Rufo is laughable.
I’m simply making the point that to defend academic freedom requires defending academic freedom, that Rufo clearly isn’t interested in that and that a culture war race to the bottom is terrible whoever is doing it.
A lot of the comments here seem to be willing to give Rufo a pass because ‘look at what the other lot do’.
There’s also a lot of comment that amount to ‘Stuff I agree with should be taught, stuff I disagree with is a waste of time’. That one side of aisle has more influence in Academia doesn’t make the other side attacking academic freedom ok.
A lot of the criticism of J&K seem to be they haven’t given Rufo the benefit of the doubt, but that requires pretending his real agenda isn’t patently obvious.

You crossed a line there when you invoked my children.
Fuck off. Blocked.
