This reminds me of a story my dad told me. When he was in first year university, his English professor asked the class on their first day what their favourite book was. My dad's classmates all answered with things with a typical pompous answer in the hopes they would impress the professor. When he got to my dad, my dad answered "The Lord of the Rings". His professor proceeded to ridicule him in front of the whole class for liking such a book. My dad never said anything, and to this day regrets not standing up for himself
The professor asked the class what their favourite book was, not what the greatest piece of literature was.
I think you should say something, Stand up for yourself.
