re: Does it have to be in order to prove my point? All that I needed to prove is the intolerance within academia. It doesn't even have to be a "core conservative belief."

Yes, it does. You are saying he was chastised for saying something conservative. If it wasn't conservative, then your point doesn't hold water.

Maybe thinking/saying women are stupid has a smaller political base than you think.

Maybe academia is liberal because liberals are smarter and less greedy?

Maybe academia is liberal because free enterprise tends to hire people to deliver, to create value to run a business, all of which calls for major decisions made based on logic as opposed to dogma and wishful thinking.

Flip the coin and you see why so few "cons" end up in academia. They got things to do elsewhere!
