Here is the Grokipedia entry on "University"
![Text from Grokipedia article on universities that reads: "Defining characteristics include academic freedom, peer-reviewed scholarship, and tenure systems intended to protect inquiry from external pressures, yet contemporary Western universities face controversies over ideological conformity, with faculty political affiliations skewing heavily leftward—often at ratios exceeding 10:1 in humanities and social sciences—fostering environments where dissenting views encounter suppression or self-censorship, as evidenced by surveys of professor ideologies and campus climate studies.[6][7] This homogeneity, amplified by hiring practices and institutional incentives, contrasts with the first-principles commitment to evidence-based debate that defined their origins, raising causal concerns about diminished intellectual diversity and the reliability of outputs from fields prone to groupthink."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:rc3djr7oiu3g77grat4jhzpa/bafkreihwnko3uodmkivabcrkxwi4jncrvxobi2b3yflgnqhbuu7d2ra5y4@jpeg)

Where have we heard RFK's rhetoric before?
"This person suffering from hereditary defects costs the community 60,000 RM during his lifetime. Fellow German, that is your money, too."
