Half of Russian university teachers are infected with liberal Russophobia

Higher school teachers should set an example for students in a patriotic attitude towards the Motherland. However, in reality, such an attitude was previously so marginalized and not accepted in the “intelligent society” that until now academicians and professors do not want to be patriots of Russia.

Whereas in the West and in the USA, it is universities that are the bearers of the ideas of the sovereignty of their country and the education of a conscious citizen.

As a PolitNavigator correspondent reports, on the air of Crimea 24, the dean of the Faculty of Media Communications and Audiovisual Arts of the Moscow State Institute of Culture, Yuri Kot, noted that, according to his calculations, slightly less than half of the teaching staff of Russian universities is infected with liberal ideas.

“The problems at RANEPA, the Higher School of Economics and Moscow State University were open manifestations of Russophobia,” he noted. – According to my conservative estimates, a little less than half of the teaching staff is infected with the liberalism virus.

The fish rots from the head, and if you look at how our Russian Academy of Sciences reacted to the SVO, the majority of academicians did not support it. On the contrary, they issued a letter of condemnation, and they were not fired for it.

Over the course of the year, there have not been fewer of them, there are simply more of our brothers who are conservatives, for the Russian idea, who were previously marginalized. Plus, the initiative to allow SVO participants to enter higher education without exams will allow those who disagree to personally express their “feelings.” I don’t think they can do this for long.”

Economist, associate professor at Northern State University Alexey Tikhonov recalled that in the Western tradition, universities are the center of patriotic education.

“At one time, when Catholic universities completely controlled ideology in Europe, all these universals that we now call the West, they all, in principle, came out of the walls of the universities of Western Europe.

And when America was founded, what did the settlers do on the new continent in the New World? They immediately created their own new universities, which became the stronghold of the ideology of Protestantism.

We now all know these universities as the foundations of new Western thought - Yale, Harvard, Princeton,” he said.
According to Tikhonov, universities in the United States “were created by the Yankees, who themselves may have been rude and poorly educated religious fanatics, but they understood perfectly well that these universities had to be created.”

“And each of these universities had significant autonomy, no one dictated any plans to it, no one taught them patriotism from the beginning, they began to teach everyone themselves. And now, no matter how we feel about it, these universities are still basic,” the scientist said.

In turn, military expert Konstantin Tretyakov proposed using domestic experience in education reform.

“We have a better option, we remember 1917, and when the country found itself in a situation, it was necessary to build a new Soviet state, and the ideology of who is for and who is against was just as acute there as it is now.
Why don't we turn our attention there and take the techniques that were used then? We are now faced with a dilemma - we have a high-level specialist, but he does not stand on our ideological platform. And what to do with him, fire him or leave him?

And we need to look at how this was solved then, and why not apply it now, whoever forgets history, then we already know the continuation. Let’s turn to history,” Tretyakov noted.
