The biggest flaw in education is the simple fact that schools do not teach people HOW to think, they dumb people down and teach them WHAT to think.
For generations people have become convinced of the idea that education is all about preparing kids for work. This is a degenerate mindset imposed upon our people by authoritarians who see us all as nothing more than a labor resource.
What we need is a true foundation of rhetoric, logic, and so on that teaches a child HOW to think critically, philosophically, and intelligently. Not simply trains them to be a better cog in a machine.
Why do we save higher philosophical or thinking oriented disciplines for higher education, and only for those who take those classes? Doesn’t this strike you as strange? Most of the basic ideas of how one can learn to think critically and rationally with discernment must be taught to kids right from the start, there is no reason to withhold this critical skills from kids UNLESS your very intention is to enslave people to be nothing more than worker drones. And as a parent, you should be ashamed of yourself if that is all you want schools to do.
Note, I am not saying we have to burden kids with unnecessary things that are often tossed into kids education these days. Many people mistake what I am talking about for the trivial things like sports or music etc. No. These are foundational to growing minds capable of creating a civilization we can be proud of.
If it was not for people who took it upon themselves to learn these basic fundamental skills on their own, humanity would never have awoken from the elites corruption in time to help Trump, RFK, Elon, and others stand up and make a difference.
The average American citizen isn’t dumb, they are dumbed down. They are TRAINED and INDOCTRINATED not educated. And until we make this fundamental shift in our education system, we shall ALWAYS be vulnerable to tyrants and despots who want to use our education system to brainwash our kids into turning against us just as the woke Marxists have done to many of our kids with woke social engineering in our schools.
While home education and private schooling often does a better job of this, it should be a standard and fundamental aspect of our education system.
I do not simply mean that the teachers should ask children to think about a topic, teachers must teach children HOW to think critically about any and all subjects.
They must teach them to think about things with a kind of open minded skepticism which allows them to hold more than one idea as being potentially true at the same time until they can evaluate fully. Not simply be TOLD which is right. And what is scary is that I have yet to meet a single teacher as an adult who has these skills themselves, let alone the ability to teach them.
We must also remove authoritarian academic structures form the process in the sense that, as we are going to learn over the coming years, our scientific and academic edifices are corrupt and lying at the administrative level (if not at the upper echelons of teaching), about a large number of very important topics, from science, to history, religion, myth, philosophy and metaphysics.
Ask yourself… Why was Stephen hawking and other scientists on the lists of guests to Epstein island? We are told it was for innocent fund raisers and things? Hardly, in my opinion the same operation that has bought and controlled our politicians and entertainers all this time has done the same with out academic leaders and scientists/researchers.
Ask yourself another question… Assuming that they did this, and it seems clear they did - why would they need to do this at all? Why would they want to? Why would they need to corrupt, blackmail and control scientists? And if you do not at least suspect this, IMHO this shows you still lack critical thinking skills.
We should stop letting our leaders and educators treat our children like batteries in the matrix, and more like human beings who have the power and birthright to shape this world into a paradise for all like it was intended to be.
We can do better. We MUST do better!
