I'm not sure why you think there is some important distinction
Because the comment that started this side conversation was about how college-age people's brains aren't fully developed.
Suggesting the neuroplasticity that allows us to adapt to brain damage is evidence of lifelong neurological developmental changes shows that you either quickly lost track of the conversation or that you're functionally retarded.

My child just started La Tech this year. Living here I know many of the professors which is one reason we encouraged La Tech so much.
Tech has always been more conservative. Lots of engineering students there.
Most of my old friends graduated there, my older brother has a masters from Tech. He taught in the LSU system

It is. You’re probably close enough in most of your beliefs that you don’t notice it.

I have been led to believe that Russia is fighting wokeism in Ukraine so this can’t be true

you literally suggest sending kids to trade school over college bc youre so afraid of the libs
I dated an ultra-conservative woman in college. It didn't work out, she was cute but she was a little too conservative for my tastes and I had my eyes on a different woman (whom I married a few years later - so good call on my part).
Anyways, we hung out in similar circles. She went off to some NE law school, came back, and was unrecognizable. Blue hair, bisexual (claimed - she eventually married a dude and I never saw/heard of her dating women), not conservative at all, hated anything she was traditionally taught. It's interesting, she unfriended me on facebook once I stopped believing in God then came back hating Christianity more than I ever did.
But yeah, my concerns over my child are overblown. I'm sure she won't turn into something I can't stand to be around.

Can you provide an example of the indoctrination happening in my classes? Otherwise, why would you assume that you know more about what happens in my classes than I do?
If a class is about research and all we talk about in the class is research, how would there be room for indoctrination in that class?

If you think humanities research is incapable of being a vehicle for leftism, then I’m not sure why I would waste anymore time with this discussion.

Depends on the class. If its in the humanities, there's a shite load of room.

Because we've gotten to know you a great deal, and people who accept an ideology aren't likely to recognize indoctrination when it's something they already agree with.

She constantly uses SJW terminology, I am positive she considers that to be "normal."

I’m not sure what humanities research is. Do you mean qualitative research? Qualitative research is still scientific.
So you think you know what goes on my classes more than I do. You don’t even know what school I attend or what I’m studying. Or who my professors are. But you are so certain you know more about what goes on in my classes than I do that you don’t want to waste your time discussing it?
What a compelling argument.
I’m still not sure where there would be room for indoctrination when teaching a class about conducting research but I you’ve made it clear that you’re certain that happened in my class last semester.

Why do you think a class about how to properly conduct research is somehow immune to political biases?

I beg to differ. Y’all accuse me of all kinds of crazy shite that is completely wild and untrue. I get called pro-trans, pro-abortion, pro-reddit, pro-TikTok and pro-other things that I’m totally unfamiliar with. You know that I used to work as a public school teacher. And that I care deeply about about marginalized populations. And you may have picked up on my being Catholic.

So your argument is: “you’re too indoctrinated to know that you’re being indoctrinated because I said so.”

Which is not really all that important. Is the suggestion that people shouldn't go to college until they're 25? It's not like they have infantile brains in their 20s.

Some posters made assumptions so everyone is making assumptions. Got it.

No, my argument is that people who agree with a specific ideology are generally unaware of indoctrination relating to that specific ideology because it appears normal to them.
This isn't a flaw of progressives only. It took me several years to get past the religious indoctrination I was exposed to as a child and even begin to understand what the actual criticisms of Christianity really were. Every ideology suffers from this because every ideology is made up of humans and this is a blindspot humans have.

No, you are judged based on the language you use, which is straight out of leftists mythology.
You use the language, you use far leftist terminology. Thats why youre viewed as such.
