Powerful essay in which @PatrickDeneen argues that conservatives should NOT appeal to Mill’s On Liberty to save them from the tyranny of the progressive majority in our elite institutions: Image
One passage that Patrick does not cite (but I’m sure knows well) is the one where Mill suggests that individuality is the only thing that has intrinsic worth: Image

NEWS: Stanford University took down its Elimination of Harmful Language Initiative, but it continues to maintain a “Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging (DEIB) Content Style Guide.” Image
The guide says it “is intended to serve as a resource for campus communicators. It is not intended to constrain the academic freedom or free speech rights of members of the Stanford community.”

But some might find certain entries to be controversial.
For example, the entry for “gender, gender identity” reads in part: “Not all people fall under one of two categories for sex or gender, according to leading medical organizations, so avoid using both sexes, either sex, or opposite sexes to encompass all people.” Image

@realchrisrufo Especially when it’s Brown University that’s on the “wrong side of history.”

Citing McCarthyist “loyalty hearings,” the university president writes: “the proponents of censorship and repression all had one thing in common: they were on the wrong side of history.”
@realchrisrufo She adds:

“College campuses are a place for controversial issues and emerging ideas to be taught, discussed and debated. This is how we fulfill our missions of advancing knowledge and understanding in a democratic society.”

Did the Princeton class of 2023 become more left-wing or right-wing while they were at Princeton? Image
Of course, overall, they skew significantly to the left: Image
