You did well, mate. You can hold your head high. I’m from an anti-education environment so I can relate to your sentiment.
I’m not a prof myself, but a PhD student with teaching duty. My prof went full emergency/survival mode this year to somehow deal with the amount of students. It’s going to be a worse experience for the students even though he and the PhD students spent a lot more time than usual on preparations. I’m only able to speak from my own viewpoint, but I’d put the blame on, partially, the uni admin for ignoring the issues, but mostly on political neglect. With conservatives in power here in Germany, I have little hope. And in the US, I’d probably have left.
