I was in my philosophy class today and my professor used MDMA as an example for utilitarian thought. His example was for weighing the cost/benefit of using the drug saying something along the lines of "its fun, but is destroys brain cells", to which i immediately told him thats not exactly how it works.
Now all would be fine and dandy but my comment was met with laughter from throughout the class and his utter denial of my claim...
It's like people refuse to do their own research and just accept all the bullshit thats crammed down their throats in 4th grade by DARE officers

have laptop, will be proven right
and straight up, if an issue is that pressing to you when you KNOW you're right and your teacher disagrees with an invalid point, just tell him/her "you're full of shit"

well did you explain exactly HOW it works or did u just claim his statement to be false without providing facts??
u should be more prepared nxt time
this happened in my music appreciation class when the teacher said that drugs had no positive effects in musician's works and only provided negative effects
i didn't speak up cuz i wasn't properly prepared to refute such an outrageous statement, and didnt want to sound like a druggie retard

i wish i had been more prepared, but i couldn't just say nothing... i have a basic knowledge of the workings, but i couldn't explain in full...
however, i did do some fact checking and emailed him about it

RP if a teachers were to say something like that to me (ive already planned this out in my head), i would simply say (since i iant got my own laptop)
"Is that a challenge Mr/Mrs/Professor 'X"
and show up next class with a typed and proofread short essay on how he is wrong.

I probably wouldn't say anything in a situation like that unless I knew 100% that I was right.
In that case, I would try my hardest to embarrass them.
