I'm a high school teacher. There is still hope. My students still can think for themselves, but the issue is more related to exposure. They are inundated with news/messaging from the left. When given the opportunity to think critically and analyze issues from multiple perspectives they tend to be quite moderate. We need to get back to teaching how to think, not what to think.

My students fill me with hope. As a society we need to band together to fight the divisive rhetoric. Hopefully there will be free-thinking individuals at Harvard who will ask questions and challenge the current groupthink.
