Since young people are to the left of old people politically and since modern-day politics correlates substantially with higher education, there’s no way to avoid a situation where the whole center of politics on campus is off to the left. — PolitiTweet.org

That’s not so crazy for either the campus or the columnist. And in both cases *typical* people will be, well, pretty typical. But there will be *dramatically* more far-left extremists on campus than in the columnists’ circle even though far-left extremists are rare on campus. — PolitiTweet.org

So you get these tail phenomena which are real, but actually not at all typical, and it’s a mistake to let them overly color your perception of the situation which is mostly a ton of people with kinda banal left-of-center views. — PolitiTweet.org
