I grant you that political correctness has gone way overboard on some
university campuses, but in a world where a mob of mindless Trump
zombies can sack the capitol building while chanting "Hang Mike Pence"
and QAnon members of Congress worry about Jewish space lasers starting
wildfires in California and 40% of Americans think Evolution never
happened and the Universe is less than 10,000 years old, saying
universities are the most anti-intellectual places in the United
States is a RIDICULOUS overstatement.

It's more to do with it being left-wing political correctness. You would
have heard far less complaints if it were right-wing political
correctness. There would certainly be some complaints from left-wing
activists, but far less from the political establishment, it would not
be a big talking point. When the issue would come up, you would hear
people like spudboy point out that if you don't like what the
universities are doing, then because we live in a free country, you are
free to start your own university.
