There's nothing "liberal" or "progressive" about that kind of activity, though.

I'd choose another term, but those seem to all be used (and abused) by those kind of people when they talk about their ideological opponents.

Within the unversity cluster that Boghossian worked, this activity is predominantly progressive liberal because that describes the makeup of the campus. There is a very different orthodoxy if you visit conservative colleges.
