After writing a nuanced piece on migration, my friend @SteijeHofhuis (untenured postdoc) is publicly called a "fascist in academic garb", compared to Goebbels, and accused of "verbal terror" by a tenured professor (Hans Siebers). That's how toxic academic monoculture has become.

It's completely unprofessional behavior, but Prof. Hans Siebers knows he will get away with it. I've been called a "racist idiot" by a tenured professor as well, for deviating from left-liberal consensus. Read his unhinged rant here on LinkedIn (Dutch). /2 https://www.linkedin.com/feed/...

That should've been @HofhuisSteije above. /3
