I experienced that when I was in school 30 years ago. I imagine it’s a lot more pervasive now and it’s probably harder to resist, since students may not have a reference point from which to challenge it, and I expect that there is a lot less freedom to do so. When I challenged Marxists ideas in class, and I did it in a well thought-out way, that was accepted. I once ripped into a book that was required reading and which my professor liked, and she gave me an A- on the paper.
