It is what gives them meaning and purpose in life and they will not tolerate any heretics. These zealots don't believe the freedoms in the First Amendment apply to the rest of us.

Excellent points but there is a deeper and more insidious factor here. Note the demographic of Professor Dorian Abbot's attackers; undergrads, graduate students, teaching assistants etc., aka young adults, cradled and taught in the LEFTist Academia milieu. Make no mistake, this is the same young adult that populated the revolutions of the past and populates Antifa now.

They, being the current 'woke mob', have little life experiences but have the zeitgeist of being on the cutting edge against their version of the 'Ancien Régime' in academia and everywhere else! Given their head, they will be happy to trot out the carts to take their opponents for 'deserved' haircuts!

A picture of the good professor. Likely to be, OR, have been, leaning left but also like mugged colleagues of recent note, Evergreen State College EX-Professor Bret Weinstein & Yale Professor Nicholas Christakis & Wife, now seeing what a mob can do. Ugly, is it not Professor?

Ok but without the full enthusiastic political and financial support of the Democrat Party Cabal (DPC), the psycho-violent Black Lives Matter/Antifa wouldn't get anywhere. Where do you think they're getting all their money? Do you actually believe the violent Black Lives Matter/Antifa comrades are fantastically successful business titans? Quite the opposite. They're being heavily funded by the DPC. And that exactly explains why the DPC very enthusiastically cheered on (and continues cheering on) the nationwide, violent Black Lives Matter/Antifa violent riots in 2020 and beyond (and it's still heavily funding them).

President Trump and Republicans forcefully railed against the extremely violent Black Lives Matter/Antifa domestic terrorism organization. But if both parties worked together to "Defund Black Lives Matter/Antifa!", it would disappear faster than you could say "Al-Qaeda." But unfortunately, the DPC is excitedly supporting and funding the violent Black Lives Matter/Antifa domestic terrorist organization (and the vast majority of Americans are totally clueless about that). My definition of DPC includes the Democrat Party, RINOs, Corporate CEOs and companies (generally speaking), academia, the MSM, all pro sports leagues, etc., etc.
