It would more helpful if you would pick specific observations from the essay and prove they don’t occur.

Oh, but they do occur. I've seen most of them myself.

demonstrate the technique of propaganda by which the writer falsifies reality

There are such students as the writer described. But they are in the minority, even in the worst of classes.

Sort of like Goebbels using an example of a Jewish criminal to paint all Jews as criminals.
