The author seems to hate both liberals and conservatives equally, but his rhetoric is pure college republican; playing the victim when one is in fact in a position of power and status and privilege, and a willful misunderstanding of what is objectionable to these people they call "liberals". It is a fantasy of being a victim when the author claims that they couldn't assign a book on genocide because of liberal students; this is exactly the kind of reading done in feminist and postcolonial studies programs. Also telling is the author's worry that "one bougie, liberal student" would complain about "texts about climate change" which "indicted our consumption-based lifestyles"; this is the position of the left/liberals; it is conservative students which object to these kinds of texts; so again, a victim fantasy.
