The best article I've read about Leftist intolerance on American campuses, by psych professor @PsychRabble. If you think there isn't a problem, read it.

Perhaps because internal opposition isn’t visible to the outside world? If faculty argue that a new hire shouldn’t be a postmodernist, who will ever know?
Genuine question: is it OK for university job ads for tenure track faculty to require a 'demonstrated commitment to diversity, inclusion, and equity'? Or is that a dog whistle for requiring progressive values?

the person who wrote that probably didn't even know what they meant by it. Standard HR Dept buzzwords.

It’s a dog whistle for looking more deeply into exactly what those terms mean in this context. Does the school define them? Are there objective measures? Are they quotas? Are violations the sole purview of an admin with an agenda?

All that said, I’d not apply to be employed at such a school. Sometimes intuitions are right.
