I feel that as I move through High School, the volume of politically based essays and assignments increases significantly. Seen as I live in a deeply liberal state, my classmates and teachers share the same radical ideology, and I am forced to conform unless I want to be ostracized. It has gotten to a point in an online school that a majority of students identify as socialist or even communist, with everything being tied to race and prejudice. Each time I write, it has to be the most liberal of rhetoric that I do not agree with, and I am getting tired of putting on this facet. I know this will only get worse as time progresses, with virtually nothing I can do to help it. Any ideas or individuals with similar experiences?

Just start going extreme liberal. Take thier points and go as far left with them that is possible. Mock them without letting them know. Have fun with it.
I had a college course which was handled like a debate class, though the title didn't indicate it. I thrived because I always chose to argue the opposite of my true beliefs. If you can argue for the opposition, as well as answer questions on that side, it allows you much more perspective when you need to argue for your own side. You already have their points and arguments, allowing you to prepare to refute it. In addition, delivery is key. Most of my wins were just because I stood tall and addressed my audience clearly.
In the near term, read as much as you can and develop your own ideas. If you push back in a paper or essay, prove your points using their own sources.
Later, aim towards STEM or a trade school. As much as they're trying, math isn't racist and real world xp inoculates against the worst liberal ideas.
I'm going to give you some solid advice here based on being in your shoes when I was your age. Dont waste any time confirming to what you think others want to see from you. I'm sure you have lots of friends who behave differently in large groups because they want to fit in. Maybe they actively deny liking something the "cool" kids think is stupid so they dont get made fun of. Maybe they throw you or other friends under the bus to try and impress people.
In high school, it's very normal to be concerned about your social optics. At this time in your life, especially if you are in public school, you're driven toward social acceptance. Your goal is to have friends and have the general public perception that you're a good person who's interesting and fun to be around. This is a trap. Whenever you find yourself in a situation where you're going to make a decision about how you present yourself to the group, ask yourself if you actually believe what you're about to say. If you're going to write a paper on why everything is racist, analyze the points you are making and truly look into your soul and decide if you believe it.
This is important because many people will actively sell themselves out in the name of social optics. You essentially will betray yourself - who you really are - in exchange for more Facebook likes or the illusion of feeling like people think you are cool. THE ONLY PERSON WHO NEEDS TO THINK YOU'RE COOL IS YOU! What everyone else thinks doesnt matter. Always remember this. Write what you want to write for your assignments. I still talk to less than 5 people I knew in high school. Most of these people will become ghosts to you as you get older. Don't waste time concerning yourself with what they think of you.
It is not that much about seeming cool and fitting in to be perfectly honest with you. Overall, I want a good grade on the assignments I write, and if I present a "dangerous" and "radical" viewpoint, the teacher is not going to accept it.
Your teacher shouldn't be basing your grades on the topics you choose, he or she should be basing it on the work you do and how well you make your points. I got a journalism degree and wrote about right wing topics almost every time. My newsroom professor was a super lib. She gave me A's on everything I ever wrote and actually recommended me for jobs. I ended up not pursuing a career in journalism and really like what I do, but I didnt give her a chance to dent my work on the basis of topic because I made my points based on facts that I had thoroughly researched and sourced. Nothing she could have done to my grade even if she wanted to. Dont be afraid to write about whatever you want as long as you write it with good scholarly work ethic. Good research and sourcing will help you a lot with that.
Strategize. Consider yourself lucky that you woke up in time to plan a future as opposed to simply being swept along with it. You'll likely want skills in a field that is more on the challenging side and where politics is not the main thing. Also. you will want to be in demand so that if you must relocate, you'll have a skill set to take with you. Just a couple of thoughts. High school should be challenging and fun. Too bad they are making it political.
Homeschool.
Move to Texas ?
Go fully libtard in your essays to point out how stupid their points of view are. Fuck yes we should join china, fuck america, kill whitie, all strait people are fucking evil... And so forth
Write your own well-structured, fact-based dissent in a respectful way?
Surely your teachers don’t say, “write this opinion”. As a former English teacher, that would get really boring!
I assure you that they got angry as a student claimed that BLM should not riot; I got nervous and wrote that BLM should be able to destroy anything they want as a means to progress society...
In that case, I’m afraid that I have to say grow a pair. Please don’t be offended, for it is good advice. Don’t relent to saying their words. They only have as much control over you as YOU permit.
A lot of good advice, here. Situations such as school environments come in a variety of descriptions and categories. It sounds as if your high school has been taken over by the left. Of course, that is going on all over the country. The past four years showed us a few things. Look how Donald Trump was treated. He refused to bow to political correctness. He stood up to them. They went on the attack without mercy in attempts to destroy him and the movement. The result was a Trump landslide, which they continue to attempt to destroy. They are ruthless. Second, as an enemy, they will use every device at their disposal to go after you, buddying up to you with the intent to get you to join them. When I went through it, it seemed every other "friend" turned out to be a change agent. One good thing, I learned to choose my friends very carefully. Have you thought about contacting services that will supply students with papers? I know, the suggestion is inapproriate and risky. So is the enemy.
