Advice: Help! My Prof Cited Grokipedia!

I am a first year taking ENV199: Debating and Understanding Current Environmental Issues, a course with the premise that there is no easy solution to climate change. As an avid environmentalist, I was excited for the class. I am what some of those backwards engineering and commerce students would call “woke.” Sue me. But my opinion of the course changed when I looked over the syllabus.
Everything seemed normal at first. Then, I got to the sources that were cited. I assumed it was a typo and that the professor had cited a Wikipedia page instead. But at the bottom of the page there was a footnote that referred to the Grokipedia page on climate change as a “credible source of information.”
I don’t know what to do. Should I confront my professor about this? I thought the School of Environment was supposed to be woke! I thought my precious tax dollars and tuition were paying this institution to fight against institutional capitalism!

Dear Grokaphobe,
We at the Boundary are so sorry to hear about your professor’s descent into madness and that an environmental studies course has been infiltrated by El*n. Unfortunately, there is only one appropriate response: you must form a coalition to overthrow the SpaceXAI Regime, seize control of Grokipedia, and shut it down for good. As for El*n, we suggest arranging him a quiet little homecoming back to South Africa, perhaps with a hard hat and a modestly sized mining operation. Good luck!
