It's weird to hear Harvard being labeled a "stronghold of the left." I suppose it could be true given just how close-minded the right is. I also don't know much of what all Harvard does.
When you consider education itself to be “leftist” and prefer indoctrination and dogma to critical thinking and the scientific method, it makes more sense.
I, too, have a hard time reconciling a private, extremely expensive education facility catering to the 1% as "leftists".
Leftists is a false premise, more elite rich which sway with the money tree left to right.
those leftist 1% in Harvard are the "armchair caviar leftists", who sound very intellectual and make a lot of noise
When you're a Nazi, like many in Trump's administration, everything looks like a stronghold of the left.
The thing is you can’t deny they are a center of science, research, innovation. Harvard is one institution that makes US stand out globally, and drives so much of what we think of as our exceptionalism. This truly is an attack on our future.
When my son was little, he had a very aggressive form of cancer. He came through it with treatment developed by Harvard research. In the couple decades before, Harvard directed research had driven mortality down from 90% to 10%. Now Trump wants to punish Harvard out of personal spite and one of the first things he does is cut research at Children’s hospital? How can you still call yourself human?
I've said it several times. Harvard runs shit in the Boston area more than people outside the New England area realize.
