My wife is quite conservative she is a social worker as her profession. She is surrounded by lunatics leftist idiots, so she has to watch what she says from time to time. Even the periodical she receives from the social worker organization she belongs to is littered with leftist propaganda. It’s tough, but she manages to do her job, and do it well.
The social work and social sciences have become so ideologically uniform that they openly discriminate against conservatives and see it as reasonable to do so because they validate their own biases.

Survey shocker: Liberal profs admit they’d discriminate against conservatives in hiring, advancement

I would be classified as such.
I am a SHIP coordinator for the last 10 years. I help elderly with insurance and social security issues.
Just because I’m conservative doesn’t mean that I am callous and not wanting to help others.
I have a friend who is a retired professor of Sociology at a major State University who is conservative and the author of as I recall 20 books none of which strike a liberal cord
I joined the state-wide psychologists organization, and someone posted on their list-serve that they needed to “do something” about the horrors of the Trump administration, assuming everyone on it agreed with her. There is NO diversity in this profession. I cannot attend a conference or workshop where a dig isn't made at some prominent conservative, and I always complain about it on the evaluation forms at the end. There is no diversity in this profession at all. It has made me think about leaving because it can get very lonely, but I am too old to change now.
We could use more of them.
And we have a massive need for conservative teachers.
