FIRE has a conservative agenda. Not that these issues aren’t real. Balanced liberalism is under attack by the extreme left which shares a remarkable number of viewpoints with the far right. Anarchy has a high price.[/quote]

FIRE is non-partisan -- I follow them closely and donate to them. They defend attacks on free speech from either side. It just so happens there seems to be more attempts to stop conservative-oriented speech than liberal-oriented speech.[/quote]

FIRE is non-partisan in that they don't affiliate with a particular political party, but they lean heavily conservative.

My alma mater was dinged for having policies that prohibit sexual harassment and harassment/discrimination/intimidation based on race, gender, disability, etc. If that's the kind of speech they're trying to protect, well, that's on their moral conscience.[/quote]
