I lived in the People’s Republic of Berkeley for three years in the Seventies—I know exactly what she is talking about.
My stay in Berkeley turned me from a mildly liberal person into a conservative who can spot the liberal/progressive BS immediately. Unfortunately, that BS is rampant in academia and government.

Actually, you probably don't understand because the situation just keeps deteriorating. I was there in the 80’s and 90’s and it was worse than the 70’s.
Just went back after being gone for close to 15 years and it's way, way worse than when I left. The crazys are driving out the sane and productive people who have enough and are voting with their feet.
The Bay Area has been sliding down the slippery slope for a long time and it's getting closer to hitting a hard rock bottom.
