These condemnations, coming about 50 years too late, should not be taken seriously.<\/span><\/p>\n

[. . .]<\/span><\/p>\n

Here's the problem: <\/span><\/p>\n

It is the left that transformed universities into the moral and intellectual wastelands most are now.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is the left that created the moral monsters known as left-wing students who do not believe in free speech, let alone tolerance.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is the left that has taught generations of young Americans that America is essentially a despicable society that is racist and xenophobic to its core.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is the left that came up with the lie that the university has been overrun by a "culture of rape."<\/span><\/p>\n

It is the left that taught generations of Americans that everyone on the right is sexist, intolerant, xenophobic, homophobic, racist and bigoted.<\/span><\/div>\n

It is the left that is anti-intellectual, teaching students to substitute feelings for reason.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
