Are degrees like economics and political science useful? (lemmygrad.ml)

Or do they only teach liberal nonsense?

As a person who's about to head to University in a few months and currently does Maths, Computer Science, and Business Studies, I can definitely state that any degree/subject which involves liberal topics such as Economics and Political Science are useless.

As an example, in Business Studies, it's always about the business. They just put the thing out there, "the business is what matters". Of course they delve into ethics and stuff but they don't care about that because businesses are supposed to be the best option. It's just capitalist realism combined with writing too much.

Economics is similar, it just doesn't involve businesses as much. It's just: "keep the economy going, line go up means world more gooder." It's an absolute joke. People with Economics or PoliSci degrees are also utterly atrocious and worse than marxists who don't hold any degree of the sort.

I'm surprised that this shit is being taught to begin with. It's all liberal nonsense, really. I don't have much on PoliSci, but someone here made a series of posts where it delves into the liberal nature of PoliSci.
