"The Breakdown of Higher Education: How It Happened, the Damage It Does, and What Can Be Done" by Professor John M. Ellis, should be a good read? Yes!
Just listened to the author, and he is amazing in his analysis of the slow erosion of our culture through radicalized education.
He says in 1999, the balance of college professors hired was, per five, two to the political right of center and three to the left. In 2020, we no longer have a pool of conservative people upon whom to draw, and if we did, they would never be hired. In 2020, there IS no center. There are 50 hires on the left, and perhaps ONE to the right.
You may discuss if you wish, but would probably be better reading some of the points Ellis makes...to think about what we can do.
He said something very frightening. Without the balance of law and order, together with liberal or progressive thought to cancel the extremism from both, one or the other group will eventually become insane.
