Although I disagree with some of the views of Professors in post-secondary education. I dislike the talks of privilege, or overtly political correctness such as Neo-pronouns or inherent racism/sexism, etc. I also dislike blind nationalism, or the hatred or othering of people based on what they do in their personal lives. The point of higher education is to be exposed to viewpoints with which you may disagree with. This goes for both Left and Right viewpoints. I am disturbed that Americans seem to allow politicians who have little or no educational background to dictate what should be the job of the secretaries of education in each state department. I am also afraid that people from either the left or the right will see this and think I am picking one side over the other. It makes me deeply saddened that education, stem, history, and other topics have become politicized that merely stating facts such as "The Confederacy succeeded from the United States to ensure the right of people to travel freely from state to state with their property or slaves wouldn't be infringed." (Confederate Constitution, Article 4). Or, "Bill Clinton was impeached for lying under oath, and obstruction of justice." (U.S. Congress) would be as divisive as they are just given facts.
