Academic freedom means that the professor is free to say anything that the Party approves.

And the Party reserves the right to shut down anything it doesn't.

Very appropriate photo. Today’s American Progressives are very similar, in both philosophy and tactics, to Mao’s Cultural Revolution proponents. If they could send us off to re-education camps, they would. Heck, there’s a video that shows Bill Ayers (Obama’s good buddy) saying that, as a leader in the Weather Underground, he was willing to kill 25 million US citizens in order to accomplish their goal. That would have been a much higher percentage of the population than the 10s of millions of Chinese that Mao killed.

Powerful image.

for moral or political outrage, which is the tool of the mediocre to bring about their revenge upon the gifted...”
