“Academic freedom” here is a code word for “Marxist Conspiracy”.
Bump!
That’s all “academic freedom” has meant since the development and extension of the tenure system. Tenure means that as long as you are part of the Marxist Conspiracy, you are able to get and keep your academic job, and fellow members of the Marxist Conspiracy will make sure nobody who disagrees with this version of “academic freedom” will ever have an academic career.
