That would certanily stimulate insightful discussion

After going through the leftist re-education camps we call colleges in the 90s, I can say that there are few, if any "insightful discussions". You either go with what your professor states, or you fail and are shouted down (without any consideration for your position). College is a good indicator for conservatives what political life is like under the left.

Freedom of speech and dissent is cherished by socialists so long and they are the only ones allowed to speak or dissent.

It doesn't change much in the business world especially if a liberal democrat is your manager. If you disagree, they take it very personally and are offended. Your performance appraisal / pay adjustment takes a hit otherwise. Been there, done that, no t-shirt.

I graduated in 1987, and it was pretty much the same (less the shouting - that was never resorted to) back then. However, I found it vastly entertaining to "play to the crowd", so to speak, and make the most asinine and ridiculous statements/assumptions/conclusions I could think of supporting "their" agenda. They ate it up, never catching on to the sarcasm/irony, it was very funny! And I graduated summa cum laude - guess I was pretty good at it.
