So, in short, higher education has been completely broken and destroyed on both ends. The result of this is a generation of book smart people with zero critical thinking skills and no means of attaining the requisite 5 years experience to obtain employment which will enable them to earn a good living or blatantly communists who have no ability to handle differences of opinion because they were only taught to have and listen to one opinion, the progressive one.

Well put.

My primary school survived the 20th century largely unchanged, but my high school was an another matter.

It was as if there was some of revolution in the 60s, and someone had taken all the old teachers, put them up against the wall, and shot them en masse.

However it happened, someone, someone had destroyed the old culture.

There were memories of how it had been though. The old photos on the wall, the floor to ceiling plaques, listing the dead, the graduates who had served.

There was such disconnect there. You had these beautiful old buildings, this old wonderful decaying campus, and then these modern souls - with their modern ideas.

These crusaders for truth.

They were so actively hostile, they seemed to hate anything that was old and traditional. It's a surprise they hadn't demolished the whole place and put some modern monstrosity in its place. And they were so quick to update their thoughts, their correct thoughts, to the diktat of the day.
