This speaks to my experience in UofT as a polack. When my dad told me all the profs were communists, I really thought he was joking! Now I realize academia is a conditioning program to breed government thinkers

I was in school from 2013-2017, if it's worse now I can't imagine! The head of the history department was an open communist and anti-capitalist rhetoric was fierce throughout campus. The economic dept was all keynesians except for a couple. Kinda makes sense, UofT's Econ program is a big funnel for Canada's central bank program. And it's not like Austrian or deflationary currency economics is favourable to a HIGHLY indebted government – they can only choose inflation to help dig themselves out of the massive hole they've dug. Its goes so deep!

Daddy didn’t want to send me to Auburn because it would turn me into a “bleeding heart Liberal”. I joined College Republicans when I got on campus. When I realized they were all just trying to get laid, I disconnected my phone, didn’t even have a tv, discouraged any further political activity of any kind. Clown car dumpster fire then, remains so today.
