School is social engineering

[moodychick]

I know a teen girl who doesn't know spelling, grammar, basic math or reading comprehension. Yet, she got accepted at a prestigious high school (Her mother donated thousands of dollars.)

The poor girl relies on Alexa instead of an actual dictionary. It's depressing how the kids and teens of today are worse than ten years ago.

When I was in grade school, the staff members were strict about reading and writing. They forced students to write in cursive, made everyone read over 25 books, and separated the students based on their reading levels. Those didn't read a book were given warnings or got lower grade.Teachers helped the ones in the lower levels with the basics. We took reading comprehension tests online often during and after school. As years went by, less students were motivated to read especially the upper grades because of technology.

At that time, I thought pointless until high school.

I hated school (k-12) but i've always loved reading and learning... i can find some uses for basic algebra in everyday life (basically it all comes down to finding an unknown), but algebra 2 and calculus can bite me.

I begged to be homeschooled as soon as i heard such a thing existed. No, my parents believed that school would "teach" me to socialize ... newsflash, you can't convert an introvert but you sure can make them distrustful of the world due to all the bullying...

The notion of spending 8+ hours a day only with peers of your same exact age is unnatural. In the real world we interact with people of all ages. Perhaps in the old days of a one room schoolhouse the situation was more organic, but modern schools are just an indoctrination center to breed mass complaince and group think. And by "modern" i mean like the 90s and early 00s, not even today with drag queens reading books and p0rn in the school library. So much worse now.

Actually, about that... before 6th grade i was very sheltered in a way, but the middle school library had all those teen magazines that tried to indoctrinate us about fashion and to be boy crazy. The librarian frowned upon us reading those magazines and said they were not meant for young girls like us. And now i wonder, who's idea was it to have those magazines there then?

Last thing, having/being a stay at home mom is not a racial privilege. The area i grew up in had a high immigrant population and the vast majority of the moms were stay at home moms. If there's any "privilege" involved it's having a father in the picture, i can imagine it's tough for single parents.

It was 1946 and this lost educational film on despotism was required curriculum at every high school in America. This video and the associated test, (11 pages) quizzed students on the concepts. By 1967, this film was removed from all libraries. des…

And social engineering is also a school.

George Carlin said it best:

"But I'll tell you what they don't want. They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that. That doesn't help them. That's against their interests. They don't want people who are smart enough to sit around the kitchen table and figure out how badly they're getting f**ked by a system that threw them overboard 30 f**king years ago."

"You know what they want? Obedient workers, people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork but just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly $hittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, reduced benefits, the end of overtime and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it. And, now, they're coming for your Social Security. They want your f**king retirement money. They want it back, so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street. And you know something? They'll get it. They'll get it all, sooner or later, because they own this f**king place. It's a big club, and you ain't in it. You and I are not in the big club." - George Carlin

LOL he was in the club mate.

Also, your thumbnail, gives consent.

All your heroes are scum mate, all of them.

So would you rather not have access to a free public education? Granted, the system as it stands could use some improvement. But the Founders, including Washington and Jefferson, had very good reasons for advocating such a system in the nation's infancy. Namely, that a fairly standard education would create a society better able to maintain the democracy they had begun.

"Common schools," as they called them, were open to people of all socio-economic backgrounds, and were designed to expose children to other kids from those various backgrounds, which, for the most part, they still do. That idea was even reinforced and expanded upon after Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas, the famous Supreme Court case that led to bussing of students and racial integration in the 1950's to today.

You may view public schools as mere "social engineering," and in a way, you are correct. They were meant to "engineer" us into a society with a common body of knowledge upon which to draw when figuring out how to coexist, compromise, and take part in government.

That modern politicians have taken the opportunity to "dumb down" schools in the last 30 years is, of course, to our detriment as a nation. How can tomorrow's citizens stand up for their rights if they don't know what they are? I've seen recent high school graduates that can't even do simple math, much less understand and appreciate the Bill of Rights.

Since you have the access, one might even say mandate, to go to school, whether you like it or not, you take that education they are giving you and you wring every drop of information and perspective from it that you can get. Don't do what so many of us have done, and take it for granted. Because it's only when you have to pay for it, that you realize what a gift it is. Even in the sh*ttiest school, you have access to scholarships and activities and opportunities that you won't find anywhere else. Take the drama class, do the sports, the chess club, whatever speaks to you. It will lead to rewarding experiences and relationships that have nothing to do with a classroom.

Think of all the kids born in third world countries, that can only dream of going to school while they're walking 3 miles to the water well, or what have you. For their sakes, don't whine about what you have been handed on a silver platter. Rock that sh*t and try to prepare yourself the best you can for the outside world. Because, despite everything you hate about school, it's one of the best tools you have to be able to do what you want once you've graduated.

I bet kids in third world countries don't think and dream about school, I'd say your brainwashing told you that they did VIA a telebox.

If I was malnourished and dehydrated, I bet I wouldn't be thinking.....

Dya know what I need? School.

They don't have them because dying is their form of control.

I was a kid in the 1950's/60's when we were taught to see everything in clear black and white, but todays kids are taught that everything is NOT clear black and white, but that there are always grey areas and that everything must be discussed and debated and looked at from every angle blah blah blah.
As a result, many kids grow up timid, neurotic and unsure of themselves and easily manipulated by the media and Dark Powers-

Hey Mr Wayne, will you ever stop seeing things in clear black and white?

The English Football Association have been a bunch of traitorous clowns for many years, I mean, England has got many great football managers, but the FA insult them by importing foreign managers.
Unpatriotic English club bosses also hire foreign managers too, what a disgrace..
