Liberals and conservatives in academia

Following the message the Rabbi sent me:

Worth reading:
Although this was originally published on the "Hidabrot" website, which advocates complete non-dialogue and generally does not display impressive honesty or intelligence, there is definitely something to it (although, of course, logically, one could argue that conservative = stupid).
"We liberals believe in pluralism and diversity, and want women , blacks, Hispanics, and Muslims to sit at the table with us – as long as they are not conservatives."

"We're fine with people who don't look like us – as long as they think like us."

It's always amusing to read about separatist people who distance themselves from anything that is not like them, who don't mind demanding equality from those who do advocate for equality.

Except that usually religious/Republican/conservative people who are truly willing to stand behind their positions do not meet accepted academic standards.
