Part of the problem is that liberal arts has been infiltrated with politics. When I was taught philosophy and Romantic poetry in college, it was straightforward with intelligent professors.

I don't see how you can teach philosophy without the underlying political views of the teachers and authors seeping through - knowingly or not.

That's why it's so important to consider a wide range of views and have robust debates.

Romantic poetry? I'll have to take your word...
