(by Jason Howerton, TheBlaze) — Former New York City Mayor and powerful gun control advocate Michael Bloomberg delivered a surprisingly bold message about the dangers of suppressing different political ideas during his commencement speech at Harvard University on Thursday.

In fact, he called out the entire Ivy League for attempting to shut out all conservative thought, nearly making conservative faculty members an “endangered species.” He also called the act of repressing free expression a “natural human weakness” that must be fought “at every turn.”

“There’s a word for that idea: censorship. And it is just a modern-day form of McCarthyism,” Bloomberg told Harvard graduates. “Think about the irony: In the 1950s, the right wing was attempting to repress left wing ideas. Today, on many college campuses, it is liberals trying to repress conservative ideas even as conservative faculty members are at risk of becoming an endangered species.”
