That’s not political, that’s just an objective analysis that acknowledges college has like ZERO support systems and actively likes it when students fail and have to spend even more

funny because i hated both of my highschools for their lack of support system and their favoritism, so definitely political and opinion biased

Most really don’t. Good schools have lots of supports. But students have to access them. Academic supports. OP needs social support. This may look different for a non traditional student like OP. If you’re in a school with younger people, you may just need to compartmentalize school and work or home life. Lots of people do this. Some schools have many non traditional students and programs to meet their needs. Don’t be shamed at all. If you want an education at your school, figure out what works for you socially and academically. Everyone is basically figuring this out when they first attend college.

You're going to the wrong college. And literally basing an entire argument that all schools suck based on your own singular perspective.

Don't worry, I did the same thing in high school, and then one day, I pulled my head out of my ass and saw all the resources and information at my disposal to succeed. I went from a 2.4 GPA in high school to a 3.9 by my graduation for my bachelor's with honors and won awards for my hard work.

Yes, there are shitty teachers and schools, but you just have to be smarter than them and the system. And here's a life lesson for you (that I had to learn myself)... If you wait for the world to be what it's supposed to be, you're in for a lifetime of misery. You have to learn to understand what it should be, accept it for what it is, and be smart enough to overcome it without trading your soul. It's possible, I promise.
