RE: The Illusion of Legality

in #philosophy7 years ago

You've already deprecated public education as brain-washing for the slave class (I don't completely disagree, but without it, I would never have been able to pursue a technical degree.)
What's your proposal to accomplish this education and heightening of self-awareness, i.e., your answer to my second question?
Incidentally, have you ever taught a large group of children for any extended term? Especially something like morals and ethics?

Sort:  

My proposal is that from a young age you were taught to follow your passions and do what you want to do to be a productive member of society. I don't know you personally, but I find it highly unlikely you were a 5 year old wanting to go to technical school. If say your passion was designing and coding something on a computer or working with mechanical parts to understand how they all work in unison, that you would have pursued that from a young age and been able to learn from people that are doing these things. The whole mindset would be different because you would have never thought that what you are capable of doing has anything at all to do with a degree, but in turn comes from experience and your ability to prove it. Children aren't naturally born with a scarcity mindset. Children are born with a view of the world as abundant, which is obvious in their nature to want to see and do and touch and interact with everything. They learn scarcity through people telling them what they can't do instead of encouraging them towards what they can do. No one is born racist, no one is born to be poor, and no one is born to be rich or judgmental of others. These are all things learned from parents and teachers. I've spent enough time teaching children things to know that we as a society are failing them horribly. Approaching things from positive perspective as opposed to a negative and limiting one changes their entire developmental process.
