My modern Latin america teacher is requiring us to read Che, and my friend's american history teacher said "you guys from the boot heel may think I’m a raging liberal or something. To me that’s a joke because I’m literally a communist” (note the boot heel is the "deepest south" part of missouri.
Maybe the kids are going to be okay. Hopefully this brightened your morning, knowing that there are some based people out there with some influence.
Edit: I forgot to mention my chem teacher grew up in the soviet union, from about 1970-1990
:( At least they're just teaching you math, math is kinda hard to fuck up with shitty politics.
Nazi textbooks on math literally had stuff like "the average patient with a hereditary illness costs the taxpayer X amount of money per year, pls calculate how much the Reich would save annually if we did eugenics"
A landlord leaches from 250 people normally distributed from the palace of the soviets. The landlord determines rent based on the function f(x). How much capital will be freed up after the landlord is shot?
My calculus professor in college would often teach an equation and then say something like "bet they won't show you that one in China." He'd do it constantly and would often use the phrase "chinese math" to mean something incorrectly arranged. It was bizarre and constant.
Reverse psychology: he was trying to expose the absurdity or anti Chinese rhetoric
Alright, lesson 1. We’re going to talk about a guy named Pythagoras and why he was correct about beans. He was white. We’re also going to talk about how no one had ever made a grid of perpendicular lines before Euclid. He was also white. Any questions?
I just kinda meant if you're taking a history class, its going to make a lot more of an impact on your understanding of the material if your teacher is racist than if you're taking math.
Lmao are you trying to get hexbear featured on a fox news segment?
I had a history teacher that was an older guy from the USSR and he was awesome - one of the only history courses I took that actually acknowledged stuff like class interest.
Did you chem teacher emigrate before or after dissolution? People who emigrated before are almost without exception high-grade chuds, while those who emigrated in 90s are usually kinda okay, although still rarely explicitly communist.
You can't say "I'm a communist" in academia without knowing you have tenure.
I had an adjunct who straight up admitted it. He probably was like fuck it, I make fuck all money, check this out:
Hi class just be warned when we get to the Marx unit I am a Marxist so be ready
That chem teacher talk about their experiences there at all?
I had an AP European (I know) history teacher in high school who paraded around the room with the flag of the USSR draped over his back with the it's anthem playing. He was great, that wasn't even related to our lesson lol. I had just become "radicalized" in that I did a lot of introspection of my beliefs that were super conservative and honestly born out of heavy bullying and an attempt to be like the bullies, but changed dramatically and actually looked up lyrics from Rage Against the Machine lol. So he had a positive effect of normalizing things
He talked a little bit about his time in school. I need to go talk to him about some stuff for class, I was planning to ask him then. Also that history teacher is my new role model.
Going to college in a state around that area, and yeah, my best seems to be an American Civil War teacher who first day of class showed us a printout of a slave transaction sheet and "this is what the civil war was about"
Another teacher who teaches two of my classes calls himself a "liberal left of Lenin", whatever that means.
