It's just pure propaganda working out. Our society is composed of roughly the same gene pool it was composed of a millennia ago, and education clearly isn't compensation when it gets treated more and more as just simply a place to discard children off to so people can work without interruptions.
I would argue that schools are really just a battery farm for obedient workers. Getting good marks doesn't mean the kid is smart, just means they're good at doing what they're told even if they don't want to, and thus makes a perfect and obedient worker. It also gets kids used to the idea of not having any rights, and having to ask to do basic human rights like eat or go to the bathroom.
US's schools*
To be fair this shitty way to run schools is getting to Europe too, I remember like a few months ago teachers went on strike for a few days against the government because it wanted to cut funding for schools (country wide), and considering we have pretty decent schools here (compared to the US) and cutting funding meant all of the nice things just going away (like no cafeteria, like bring your own food method, which would suck ass since I live far away from my school for example)
Lucky we didn't hear from the government ever again after, since it was basically all the schools in the country, this happened in Czechia btw, just so anyone isn't confused as where this happened
But honestly our government is a shit show and I am not surprised they gave up after 1 day of strike
What does this have to do with the post? We're talking about creating a higher tax bracket, you're talking about genes and why schools exist.
He’s talking about the people this post is about.
The irony of not understanding that comment is depressing to be honest. Basically proving their point.
^ The irony of being this guy missing the point
nu uh, i think YOU are missing the point. Quite meta-ironic if you think about it.
omg whoosh central over here ↑
He's talking what he's talking about. What are you talking about? Are you talking about what is being talked about or is it talk in general?
