Free education, you get what you pay for.

[Julia Comeau]

I'd take the course just to debate the teacher

[Großer Bube]

That "course" sounds like a teacher-led indoctrination effort, a way to try and get students to join the (bowel) movement.

Isn't that a paradox to the problem?

Why don't you give them jobs? Trying to do it might teach you the answer to your question.

This wasn't a class to teach people to protest, but how to study humanity and events.

Talk about being what you hate already and not knowing it.

Lee is trying to say it's ironic that some people who are apart of the wallstreet movement (that are there because they have student loans and no jobs) are in the position of unemployment because they focus or are encouraged to focus on careers that have little future for them and usually don't even contribute much towards society. The "wall street" course is an example of a class that most likely won't provide much of a contribution towards society and the point of this video is to outline this
