Colleges are just part of people's indoctrination, so it doesn't surprise me.
Dunno what college you're talking about but that was one of the first places where I learned history without a incredible spin. Was also taught that a lot of history is/was written by the victors in their favor and how to approach the study of history to try and remove some of those biases.
Maybe some institutions are shitty at teaching, and slant one way or the other, but I don't think that's the norm.
You didn't need that college to teach you about history.
Part of the indoctrination is convincing people that college is required to be successful and proficient in their field of study. It's how they can get away with abusing their students in this manner because the young adults don't have enough world experience to know that college isn't necessary to learn.
It's also funny, because the students pay for this abuse. And then, like you, they display symptoms of stockholm syndrome whenever anyone dares to mention that abuse has even occurred. It's always easier to pretend you haven't been taken advantage of than to admit you got played.
Ur fucking dumb bitch
