Dude, School was the worst f'ing psyop.
Give me a straight question and answer on the material, and I'll 100% it. No, we can't do that... Here's four answers that are all technically correct, choose the MOST correct one.
Ohh so it's pros and cons of a situation and you need to pick the one with the most upsides or least downsides? No, they're all just mostly ok, but we were REALLY thinking about answer B when we wrote the question.
School is like slavery in many aspects to be honest. Though it‘s really not a physical one, but a mental one.
You can not do much without getting permission from an authority figure first, including relieving basic biological needs such as eating or using the bathroom. You are not allowed to leave the facilities without permission. You are classified into different groups based on your performance on tests, and eventually seperated based on that (usually at high school/university level). You are trained for at least 12 years in this way to obey arbitrary rules and procedures, which are designed to get you ready for the capitalist hellscape that awaits you. Some countries even use this period of time to push another agenda on you, usually one related to religion &\ nationalism. At last, you come out of it (while probably having forgotten many of the things ”taught” to you) and you are immediately put into mandatory military service, or you come to the point of needing a service job just to survive.
Autodidacticism definitely rocks, and homeschooling would be a better idea if one was qualified for it and the child's social needs could be met elsewhere.
Kinda unrelated to your example, but I just wanted to expand on your psyop comment.

Reading these comments is bad for my health (╥﹏╥)
What are the reasons for them to act this way? Seems sometimes they're just ignorant, other times definitely power tripping.wrote last edited by [email protected]This sounds like someone following a preprepared lesson plan without the skills or experience to adapt, and panicking.

That's just bad teaching. If you're not allowed to use negatives then the teacher shouldn't be asking questions where negatives are the answer. 20-25 is NOT equal to zero whether you've learnt negatives or not.
Depends on what we're subtracting. If I have a basket with 20 cookies and I give it to a class of 25 students, I'll have 0 cookies. I won't be in a 5 cookie debt, the cookies are distributed on a first come first serve basis. If you didn't get one too bad, I never signed anything. And fuck them slow kids anyway, they're probably last because they're fat and can't run too fast, they don't need any more calories, loose some weight lil' shitlings and be quicker next time.

Teachers and parents. So many tend to double down when you point out their mistakes.

That's a solid take. The difference I’ve noticed, though everyone’s experience is different, is with homeschooling. From what I’ve seen, quite a few parents take it on despite not really being suited for it. Some seem to have their own forms of indoctrination, the kind that even public schools won’t entertain, so they choose to keep their kids out entirely.
My son has a handful of friends who are homeschooled. (We kept him home a bit longer during Covid while he did remote learning, and he kept a lot of those friends.) His friends span the full spectrum: a couple are pretty middle-of-the-road, you’d never guess they were homeschooled. One lives under really strict, almost militant control, and another seems to do whatever he wants, whenever he wants.
I hate the crap that goes on when the establishment runs the game, but I also hate what happens when nutjobs run their own game. It's like we need some kind of framework to keep everyone on the same page, where kids just learn and excel. We should get nominal discipline, learn self-control, but also not be pigeonholeed with a lot of redtape used to protect schools from legal action. Some kind of common sense brigade

How many adolescent gangs and drug dealers do you know?

Homeschooling works best for the kids when the parents aren't working and are well educated. Most parents don't meet these requirements, the ones that do usually do and the kids to private school because it costs about the same.

Yeah, teachers should absolutely prioritize the kids that are a bit ahead over the majority of kids /s
yeah, but they shouldn't hold the class back because of the idiots either

Forcing people in education jails, would help solve our education problems. Once a year, they test you, and if you can't pass a standard test, they lock you away until you can, because you can't make good choices without education anyway.
I'm sure that would totally work without any problems whatsoever /s
