[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In an MBA program, and as you likely know, businesspeople skew conservative. Fine. I’m taking an economics class, and my professor uses every opportunity to denigrate economic controls, government regulations, etc. He’s described Bernie Sanders as sympathetic to assassins and dismissed the Green New Deal as absurd (which it may be), and of AOC he questions the “wisdom and foresight” of a “29-year-old whose previous work experience was bartending.”

I think it’s one thing to foster healthy, fair debate on issues, but he’s so anti-liberal and frankly anti-government it’s becoming difficult to focus on the lessons. Should I talk to him? Talk to administration? Or just leave it alone? [/quote]
[b]Wasn't he telling the truth though?[/quote][/b]

He is telling the truth.  It's OP who feels the need to crowdsource here on a blatantly liberal forum. She's the one who is out of line.  She should be listening and learning, not jumping to criticize when she doesn't even have the life experience to know the basics of econ or business or how capitalism works.  She'll look like an idiot complaining.[/quote]

OP here. Here’s my example: we were asked to debate the economic impact of the Green New Deal. My professor kept calling Rep. Ocasio-Cortez “the AOC.” He presented the Green New Deal as an economic disaster (which, frankly, it would be), but wouldn’t discuss the economic impact of climate change. He said he hates that climate change is so politicized, meanwhile pushing his political view of the situation - that any state that’s conceded to more government control has succumbed to tyranny.
