I said it a few weeks ago, but I can't remember any topic where it's been this hard to anticipate out how people would think about the crisis, based on their previous political ideology.

While true, Stanford also has a reputation for being an ideologically conservative university

Is that why the Hoover Institute is there?

Yes. *takes off captain obvious costume* (Just saying that Stanford is one of the institutions I _would_ have expected this from.)

No I wasn’t! Genuinely didn’t know its connection to the university

Herbert Hoover studied at Stanford but, yes, it's always been a conservative school (originally funded by a railroad plutocrat and as late as 1960s having rules that professors had to affirm support of "free market" and opposition to socialism).
