Prof Hanson, Since we are all experiencing the Mindset of the Left, is it similar to those who put Socrates on Trial?

I believe that Charlie Kirk was one of the best America has produced but, like all humans, imperfect. I remember one clip in which he was talking to young people and, basically, trying to talk them out of college. He said, “How many of you are taking classes for which you see no purpose?” Raised hands and laughs. I think that was arrogant on Charlie’s part. How do they know what is important? The reason you go to college is that they know some things that you don’t. Also, there were classes I took because they were required, that I comprehended their value later. One was differential equations. I worked hard enough to pass it but didn’t grok it. Then a couple of years later, took a physical oceanography class as part of my major. It needed differential equations. Not only did I comprehend the need for “diffyQ”, but I mastered it because my personal epistomological condition requires correlation to accomplishing things. Also, some of the classes such as Non-Western Cultures were intended to broaden Philistines like me.
