there is a lot of you!
You go on about people thinking for themselves and not having evil leftist views forced on them yet you regurgitate standard alt right snowflakery like "social justice worrier" and spouting on about a left wing conspiracy in educational establishments to turn children against brexit. I find that interesting.
It does tend to be those of a left wing persuasion who complain about "evil" right wing views.
There has been significant recent history of "no platforming" at many UK universities, and even perfectly moderate speakers such as Germaine Greer have been denied an audience. This appears to be creating an environment where any views other than the acceptable left of centre/feminist "norm" are shouted down.
This is a worrying development as, particularly in a university setting, the response to a bad argument should always be a better argument. The left would often prefer the lazy approach of shutting down the debate before it begins.
