Many academics I see online are leftist whereas many laypeople I see online are right wing.

    Depends on what you call “academics”. If you mistake phrase shifter courses like “business administration”, “politics”, or “law” as academic, then yes.

      Nah not that specifically. I meant like in social sciences and humanities (other fields are welcome but my main motive was these fields).

        Social sciences and humanities are a classic leftist field. And MINT scientists are usually too smart to be right wingers.
