    Can you talk to your dean? Because like, even libs should know that is factually incorrect, you have plenty of examples in pre-fascist Germany, Italy, and Spain to contest that?

        Deans are incredibly predictable:

        -“Will this issue possibly result in bad press for the university?”

        If no: do nothing

        If yes: try to limit any bad press. And maybe, just maybe consider addressing the issue if absolutely necessary*

        *if this is a matter of capital (e.g. having billions of dollars invested in fossil fuels/etc) then make no change is the only option

          any dealing with problems which is primarily concerned with reputational damage is going to include a lot of willingness to cover things up

          hence the absolute state of police anti corruption efforts

        Usually I'd say argue with the professor because here they fucking love that but I feel this guy is so libchud (a word I just now made up I'm on my 3rd wine its not my fault) that would be a bad idea
