OT: US Election

What’s your beef with JP?

JBP is great if you actually need to be told to tidy your room and wash your balls.

Out of interest, how do you define the radical left?

More extremely than most describe the hard right

Sadd and Peterson are hardly grifters, they are good academics with the courage to express their views which are different to many in academia. It’s called academic and free speech…. The grifters are usually those running for office

there are other very liberal academics such as Jerry Coyne who have strongly criticised the left in recent times, not to mention Flynn in NZ before his passing…. He left the US on the McCarthy era, and then Kate in his career was silenced because data didn’t fit with the leftist narrative

This is one of the biggest myths floating around, the university system in the US is not radical left, it's not even centre left dominated (especially not in a rest of the western world spectrum).

I’m guessing you work in a Uni? I do too, and disagree with what you’re saying there, but there is variance around places, and in some a semblance of change
