  • Probably both. But I think the teachers themselves are just brainwashed like most of us are. Even parents think its the norm. Most of us see it as normal to send our kids to school. What I can't seem to get my head around right now is, how and when did it become normal. How did this happen and how did the elitists market this system to us in a way that we accepted it? I think these same questions will come up in our future about the civil liberties that we are being slowly robbed of now.

  • asking the question of how it happened needs to be asked but the more important question is what is the next step of this evolution. i think it is the rise of these technical training schools and vocational training for student while not teaching them skills and critical thinking abilities to discern the truth about what is going on in the world.

  • Yes, we have to prevent it from getting worse and hopefully reversing it. I fear it may take a full scale revolution for the system to be changed. I hope not, but it probably would.

  • Do schools kill creativity? If creativity was a person schools would be it's concentration camp! I think that young people are going through a creativity holocaust perpetrated by teachers especially ones who hate their jobs. Everyone who agrees this is a disgusting inconvenient truth give me a thumbs up. BTW I'm only twenty years old and I understand this.

  • This reminds me of how I badly wanted to be homeschooled in elementary school. I had to settle for faking sick to stay home and read a lot.

  • My experience in public schools is that they are brainwashing and torture centers. You go there and get fed total bullshit and get beaten up by bullies while staff sits there and does nothing because they want kids to be tortured because they know that torture assists the brainwashing process. And, It has only gotten worse since I was in school 20 years ago. I have youger cousins who just finished and man do they have horror stories.

  • If anyone reads this or takes the time to or has a mind similar to me feel free to message me.

  • another life in which that reality goes, and do you think there is a scheme to the next reality too?

  • Money is what is used to buy simple resources to survive, and by working and getting Money in order to get resources to survive it creates a cycle. You live this cycle reproduce and then you do the same to your kids and so on. This runs society. Back then humans main focus was to survive and reproduce. There was no complex scheme to run or cycle. After the cycle ends you die you move into another reality or where if you did what was right in the reality before that would lead you to...

  • Think about it like this the schools are brainwashing for one half the stuff kids learn in school are not used in everyday life, what kids learn grow up into what the teachers teach them and what the teachers know is another hierarchy that teach them and so on until you find the source of the material. After school you get branded and categorized into sections of occupations so on, why? Because it is necessary for "Life" for society because that's how it works. Why do we get jobs? to get money.

  • I love how the goverment is trying to pass that sapo bill to censor the internet so we cant learn on our on

  • it should be mandatory to read Simulacra and Simulation before going to school. No wait, that would end society as we know it. Oops...

  • There is a video on youtube an interview of late Aaron Russo. in a part of the video, he talked abut what a Rockefeller he was friends with told him about why the "Women's Lib" movement began. He told Russo, the Rockefeller Family funded women's lib and one of the reasons was to get kids in school younger so they could control kids minds and indoctrinate them at a younger age.

  • @flavour54 Im sure back in the day when formal educations began, people thought it was a good thing that would make kids futures brighter and get good paying jobs and not have to do low paying "grunt jobs" but that is not what the agenda was of elite. It was to brainwash and mind control people.
