Running on empty …

 The Age of Travesties | City Journal.

Leading universities have turned themselves into hybrids of Mr. Rogers’ neighborhood and Mao’s Red Guards. They have become madrassas of identity politics, given over to dogmatism, indoctrination, the coddling of grievance, and the encouragement and manipulation of neurotic youthful insecurities for the purpose of consolidating political power. The effects of travesties being committed on American campuses, where the mind of the hard Left is embedded in faculties, administrations, and boards of overseers, will be felt for generations. The damage may be irreparable.

  1. I agree with the author's criticism of terms like "heteronormative" and "breeder" but not so sure of the swipe he takes at the LGBTQ abbreviation.
