Well, that is pretty much US defaultism. I'm not from the US and was talking about academia on an international level.

Your example again just shows how the structure, i.e. the universities working under capitalist logic, are the problem. This doesn't mean that academics necessarily agree with this change in politics.

I get why you have such a fatalistic view and I agree with your statements about the fascist takeover :(
