>>About the time I read Bloom, my department was accused -- by one of its members -- of being “racist” and “sexist,” “crimes” which my university would not tolerate. Faculty were hauled before a kangaroo court chaired by an individual known to be sympathetic to the person who leveled the charges. Department members were required to appear before the court, sans legal representation. We were required to testify -- i.e., confess our guilt. (All I could think of as I went through the ordeal was the Moscow show-trials under Stalin.) Even though the kangaroo court could not convict the department, its reputation was tarnished. At that university, to be charged with racism and/or sexism was to be guilty. We were as lepers.
TFB. You sat on your ass and let it happen. Now you can suffer for your cowardice.
You sat on your ass and let it happen. Although I would be a little more charitable, I agree with your sentiment. It's time conservatives on these campuses speak up. Their silence aids the triumph of evil.
Look at Mike Adams, at UNC-Wilmington. He spits in the face of the leftists at every opportunity, and just won a large settlement after suing them for their double standards.
