This was an excellent speech, thanks Steve.
My only nit that I would pick is his opening concession that women and minorities still face a lot of discrimination today. While I think most people would nod at that statement, I think it’s irresponsible to drop it in passing without really qualifying what the speaker means, because it means radically different things to different people. Indeed, it’s the main thing separating the Identity Politics league in the university from everyone else.
I would agree with his controversial claim that most mainstream liberal professors regard their more radically left-wing colleagues as something of a joke.
