What university in Australia? And yes... it varies between universities but most Arts/Humanities departments are contaminated with this sort of insane ideology.

Drop the course or endure it. You can't beat them.

>>12661221
Most humanities courses are like this now. Often one's grade in the class can be damaged by taking an incorrect ideological position in your coursework. If you don't want to deal with that possibility then I suggest dropping the class.

>>12661285
I might. Anyone know any interesting units to do?

You either have sone really shit teachers or don't know how to argue at all.

Out of the humanities the field that is the least infected with this nonsense is Classics. It's starting there too, of course, but it's not at this level yet. Your Classics department is probably safe. Probably.

You seem to be under the impression that these professors want to argue with anyone, rather than indoctrinate them.

I'm in my final year at an australian sandstone uni. If your institution offers a major in classics you should do that instead. They'll have you do classical languages (usually attic greek and classical latin) along with courses that study the greeks and romans. There will be some identity politics crap from time-to-time, but you will mostly avoid it.

>talk about white decanonization when Straya is the most literarily bereft dustbowl on Earth
>not focusing on own marginalized authors they have, b/c muh they hate abos

second they being the australian authors that is.
Like Baylebridge

>>12661353
Baylebridge is just a baby /lit/ meme really, not well known generally. Australia has quite a few notable literary figures who wrote significant poetry or prose but they are also not well known even in Australia outside literary circles.

I hope youre not paying for it, cucks in america have to pay for higher education just to hear some immature fuck go on about how unfair the world is from the comfort of an airconditioned room with clean running water

>>12661221
I still find this hard to believe. I did history and literature at a top private uni and now am an MA in Classics at a large state school and I have only heard the phrase "Dead White Men" on the internet. Lit theory classes of course discussed feminist, Marxist, decolonial theory because a basic understanding is pretty necessary to read any secondary scholarship, but I was certainly never marked poorly for disagreeing ideologically with criticism

I'm Canadian but this doesn't line up with my experience of humanities. My ethics professor almost redpilled me into Catholicism, would make arguments about gay sex being unhealthy, ect.

>>12662029
He's right, gay sex caused AIDS

none of this happened

Only the factory farm kind.

>Need to go into arguement about everytime you need recieve a grade and having to watch the teacher getting triggered that someone doesnt agree with their of their specific teaching points.
If its in the their evaluation requirements written that you need to evaluated according to your praise for their ideology then you dont have much to complain about when you do the contrary.

>>12661221
This is the main irony i find when humanities students shit on Stem students
Atleast the stem students arent paying to attend a literal indoctrination and bragging about that their degree has a "soul" and a "taste".

hook, line, and sinker.
