I will give you an upvote to offset the negative expressions. I've heard of at least one instance at a very well known Bay Area university in such a class.

From what was described to me, and I trust this person to not misrepresent their experience, was that they were essentially told 'hi, cis white male, sit down and don't say a damn thing, this isn't your place to talk'. And then go on to essentially present a curriculum that was essentially a myriad of thinly-veiled misandry, compounded by extremely clear classroom rules/culture where any opposition was decidedly unwanted by the lecturers.

I'm the first to champion equal rights and equal opportunity, but that that sort of thing was going on in higher ed left a bad taste in my mouth.

Is it still a thing in the US though? There was a bit of that in Canada briefly but then everyone saw the ridiculousness of the radical approach in 2023. Universities have been distancing themselves from such groups since then.
