I struggle with railing on against the people who don't think well critically - because I have family members who fall into the stereotypes I loathe: the Fox News followers, the people who think women shouldn't lead (Adam's feisty grandmother, who used to be an EMT, doesn't think women should be president! Ay yi yi), etc - and they are wonderful people. Adam's extended family tend to fall far into the Right and yet they know all about 'checkered' past and love me all the same. Knowing and loving them helps keep me in check, somewhat, in my railing, but it also frustrates me even more.
As for school, that's why I said brilliant AND/OR really try.
