Maybe you need his class lmao. Re read the article and have a think about what it means.
So he fails people who are Marxist because they follow directions and have actually educated themselves on something?
It's a history class ffs. We should be teaching Marxism anyway
I legitimately think that you need to work on reading comprehension or let yourself read things without just getting too pissed based on trigger phrases you decided on to think about what you read. He asked all the students who submitted Marxist papers about their perspectives and none of them could even explain what Marxism was. I implore you to step back and think through this rationally - how many US college freshmen have strong Marxist views and are knowledgeable and passionate enough about them to write a strong essay about how an event in American history fits within a Marxist perspective? I also invite you to consider how a professor who wants to "fail people who are marxist" would recognize Marxist language and rhetoric subtly inserted into an essay? Furthermore, THE INSTRUCTIONS TO WRITE FROM A MARXIST PERSPECTIVE WERE IN WHITE TEXT THE STUDENTS COULDN'T READ UNLESS THEY COPY AND PASTED THEM INTO A DIFFERENT TEXT FIELD! I don't understand how you could supposedly read this article multiple times and not understand this crucial detail.
All I read there was. That they could not define Marxist perspectives correctly, which when not part of your specific field is rather challenging
If you didn't make it to your freshmen year without learning what Marxism is, you probably shouldn't be in Uni
Yes, most educated US Americans learn about Marxism at some point in high school (or earlier)
The fuck are you yelling about. That doesn't make sense. Obviously it could be read from the assignment paper. Otherwise, it wouldn't be read by the students. Which, the article made very clear, it was read by the students.
Yeah, I read that. And I read nothing that described how that's possible. So, no, obviously the students could see it.
That claim makes no sense.
I think you may legit need adult education classes or something. I literally explained how it works in my last comment.
A lot of this comment section does apparently lol
