I thought diversity was our strength?
If this is true then why don’t institutions run by liberals reach out to hire a workforce that looks like America with 50% conservatives? heck! or even 40%!!
Until we take back k-12, the country will continue the decline. Take back K-12 and the colleges will have to reform because non leftist indoctrinated students will seek non biased balanced higher education.
How do we fix it?
However these leftist “professors” have no problem accepting lifetime jobs underwritten by the wealth generated by productive, capitalist Republicans.
What about conservative independents like me?
It’s an established religion.
Conservatives tend to hire based on merit, but Leftists tend hire other Leftists, to the exclusion of anyone else. It seems mathematically inevitable that any organization will become exclusively Leftist, if merit isn’t important to its survival, and if enough time has passed.
33 of 65 departments are useless.
Sounds lawsuitable.
I do... Deep down these liberal zealots realize their beliefs are indefeasible intellectually, at least for those who are intellectually cogent. It just becomes easier to wrap themselves in a cocoon where defense is unnecessary.
Why bias against conservatives?
Because Leftist academics hate the truth. After all, leftists are the progeny of Satan, a/k/a the Father of Lies.
I suppose exposing it is the first step.
We need a dashboard that shows universities from most balanced to worst.
“I frankly do not understand why professors want to maintain this one-sided environment in hiring.”
It’s real easy. The left doesn’t have the same value system you do.
People like you invited them in. Once they acquired the power to hire, they eliminated people who don’t think like them.
This is who they are, who they have been and who they ever will be.
If you have a government job, you vote #ComDem.
If you are self employed or work for a privately held company, most vote Republican.
There was a time when almost all Miltary officers voted Republican. Not so now.
Only 32 to go.
Republicans, especially white male republicans, MUST be eliminated for diversity. Diversity uber-alles and you will be destroyed if you don’t hold the Current Thing opinion.
But really. Who would dare say they were a republican on a college campus when the threat of physical violence is very real.
Defund the universities.
Twitter / Musk wants the Poynter Institute to do fact checking for them? YIKES! Poynter owns the Tampa Bay Times (former St. Petersburg Times) There hasn't been a conservative in that newsroom in over 40 years. Would Musk choose a group to decided 'racial fairness' if that group had not had a black employee in over 40 years?
We need to add political views to protected categories like religion, race, national origin, sex, disability, etc.
Publicly traded companies, educational institutions, and governmental entities need to be made to pay severe financial consequences for this.
