I'd be more sympathetic to conservative assessments that colleges are having a negative impact on the culture due to their extreme and exclusive radical left leaning, if I didn't know well enough to know that what many conservatives are advocating is for colleges to have a similar bend, but towards exclusive far radical right platforms instead. The idea of a symposium of contrasting and competing ideas seems to have vanished from political discourse- neither party wants it, they favor echo chambers instead.

The modus operandi of both parties today seems to be the complaint, not that something wrong is being perpetrated, but that something wrong is being perpetrated and that it's not benefiting *them* instead of the other party.
