@BaileyWalk53235 @LegionHoops @KeithSmithNBA This is a monkey post. 😆

He still made a quantum leap from last season. He obviously worked on his game last off season. He should make another major leap by next season now that he understands where his game is weak at right now. He shouldn't get that much but should get a nice contract. All this Duren hate needs to stop!

@tbinimaize @smerconish @UMich In what subject(s)? My brother teaches there as a PhD candidate in Economics. He nor any Economics professor at UMich would do that. My brother argues both conservative and liberal sides when it comes to economics but he leans more toward conservative.

@Country17Bumpkn @smerconish Right from wrong? Who is deciding what is right and what is wrong?

Which conservatives, specifically, are missing?

Because serious conservative voices have not been locked out of commencement culture. David Brooks has given commencement addresses at Vanderbilt, Dartmouth, Rice, ASU, and UChicago’s Class Day. Mitt Romney gave the 2024 Johns Hopkins commencement — an elite research university, exactly the kind of institution this complaint points at. Liz Cheney spoke at Colorado College in 2023.

So I have no problem with conservative views in essence. A serious conservative who can speak about constitutional order, civic duty, faith, family, discipline, economics, institutional restraint, or moral responsibility can absolutely have something worthwhile to say to graduates.

But let’s not play dumb about the moment we are in.

Many of the loudest “conservative” voices today are not simply offering a different view on tax policy or federalism. They are trafficking in racial resentment, anti-LGBTQ panic, anti-immigrant scapegoating, hostility to energy innovation, attacks on public education, election denial, climate denial, and open contempt for multiracial democracy.

That is not “ideological diversity.” That is reactionary grievance politics looking for a prestigious stage.

What “ideological diversity” usually means in this complaint is platforming figures universities decline for cause: people whose public brand is built on humiliating vulnerable people, denying history, excusing authoritarianism, or turning civil rights into a punchline.

That is not a viewpoint being suppressed. That is a university declining to celebrate, at its own graduation, positions a supermajority of its graduates explicitly reject.

Universities are not cable news. The job is not 50/50 partisan balance. The job is intellectual seriousness.

And Robert P. George himself, by the way, is a tenured endowed chair at Princeton. So maybe the “silenced conservative” argument needs a better mascot.

@CNN_NewsNight @abbydphillip Why do you and your guests seem to misunderstand where the tax the wealthy as gathering them based solely on their wealth. Luigi Mangione's targeting the UCD CEO was not about the CEO being a billionaire if he was but for the company's armoral system.
