My U.S. history professor said that Che Guevara is a mass murderer and that Lenin wrote the Communist Manifesto with Marx. I’d like my tuition refunded.

I learned a trick in Catholic school, entering it at like age 12 when I already had a secular science education. My “biology teacher” insisted that evolution wasn’t real and I got in trouble for constantly questioning her. Instead I let it purify my hate. I could repeat the textbook answers cynically to get the grade, but knowing I was being lied to motivated me to read the truth after class out of spite and reject the lie ideologically. My horticulture degree made me an eco-Marxist because my professors were usually so insufferably liberal that I needed to learn the things they weren’t teaching in defiance of their goals. If I studied history, the most valuable thing I could get from that degree is refining my ability to critically read things with a sense of formal historiography because I hated some professor relying on bad sources to lie to me.
