Yeah! Math Prof has definitely chosen a side. He obscures that move in a fluff of "politics is complex, decisions are difficult." But politics is everything, and he's engaged in politics knee-deep while pretending not to be. "All I care about is education" calmly states the unwitting Math Prof as education is destroyed to become a hollow commodity for those who can afford it. He's obscuring his politics and hiding that fact that he wants a continuation of the current state of things.
