He was writing about the civil rights movement, and accurately analysed COINTELPRO and other government repression. The teacher thought it was unfair characterization. So yeah, highschool's are totally hubs of left wing indoctrination.

    I never really figured out the guy's personal politics, but I took a course about the privatization of Russian infrastructure after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the whole thing was about the oligarchs who basically stole the nation's resources for their private gain.

    I got a pretty good grade, even with comparing that privatization with American private industry, which is "somehow" not that different.

    And I had a couple of openly communist professors, one of which came to ISO meetings regularly.
