• Are you a left-leaning post-liberal?

    And liberalism necessitates a belief in objective truth. The fight on campuses isn’t between conservatives and liberals. It’s between liberals and left-leaning post-liberals. Conservatives should hope the former will be victorious.

    I don't see the "liberals" putting up much of a fight.

    That's because you're looking in the Washington Examiner at a professor
    from Hillsdale College, newly notorious for its efforts to destroy
    higher education and home to Christopher Ruffo's anti-CRT and DEI moral
    panics as well as DeSantis's Florida education policy.

    I agree with the URL that the problem on campus isn't an excess of
    liberalism. No, there's no "visions of intellectual and social life that annihilate the liberal tradition as developed in Western societies three centuries ago."

    While I do like an Enlightened view of science and empiricism, things
    have changed since 1723.

    Post-liberals have no objective truths. It's all about feelings and perceptions.
    You're way down the evolutionary chain as nothing but a dem party disciple.

    You quote Jefferson, but really, I think you consider
