Being ignorant of the data doesn’t make you right. You’re kinda proving that HN also has a Left-filter.
You can have any political opinion on HN so long as it’s a Liberal Progressive opinion.
In my “lived experience” <eye roll> this wasn’t so obvious here 15 years ago.
Everything you don’t agree with is just right wing nut jobs. Diversity of opinion, so long as it’s mine.
Between 1969 and 1998, the share of faculty identifying as “liberal” or “far-left” shifted only a tenth of a percentage point, from 44.7 percent to 44.8 percent.
Beginning with the next survey, in 2001, however, faculty opinion took a hard left turn such that professors on the political left are now approaching a supermajority in the academy (see figure 1)
