Among liberal faculty 35 and under, only 23% indicated that shouting down a speaker is never acceptable, 43% said the same for blocking entry, and 64% for using violence to stop a campus speech.

Look at Figure 3, which covers all faculty (liberal and conservative). The shift towards illiberalism and less tolerance towards speech is absolutely visible in generational cohorts, and the under-35 cohort is the most supportive of illiberal measures. Students are even more supportive of illiberal measures than young faculty.
