Let's be honest, poor people are fucking idiots. Even if you're crooked as hell you have to be an incredible, exceedingly rare, person, in multiple regards, to be a billionaire. As a group, poor people actually tend to, by far, have the worst policy views, which is completely unsurprising. -

This is a small minority of cases. Just look up the outcomes of lottery winners, retired Black athletes; they squander it. It has far more to do with the genes they inherit. -

Yeah, no other conceivable reason why people born into poverty and later buried in cash have a hard time managing it. No possible way we could explain that phenomenon than genetics. Nope, not one. -

Maybe in America, but over here where we discriminate based on class rather than race or religion pretty much your only chance of being rich is if you're born into it -
2017-01-14 at 1:39 AM UTCscience is bullshit. there's no proof that the scientific method even works. people just say 'science' nowadays when they used to say 'god'. the modern cult of science has completely broken the average persons epistemology. you say something like, 'men and women have developed entirely different ways of thinking over millions of years-' and people just scream about scientific proof and studies and evidence all all this other nonsense as if it makes any difference. people have become emasculated of their ability to make judgements.
education is also bullshit. people would literally be smarter if no one had ever gone to public school.
educating an idiot just produces stupidity-on-steroids. furthermore it is cruel.

faggot that you are, you probably don't know what the word emasculated means. and you probably couldn't identify what is and what is not a judgement. and you're probably not smart enough to know what education is. or think about things. if you thought about it, you'd realize that i'm right. all public schools should be bulldozed, the education departments permanently defunded, overnight, no warning, no comment, no alternative.
i would consider replacing them with 10 years of mandatory physical and martial training, along with a law that says children must accompany their parents to work. they don't have to actually work, unless they want to, but all places of work must allow the employees children to come along and hang out.
take away your stupid fucking public schools that take 12 years to teach 2 years worth of garbage. you have the internet. shut the fuck up. employers still have to hire people, you absolute idiot. colleges still have to make money, you absolute idiot. people that are good at teaching will still try to find ways to profit off of that, you absolute idiot. whats your fucking excuse? after eight years of fucking english classes, we have people as close to illiterate as you, and even worse.
there is only one single result of public schooling: the destruction of the students capacity for learning.
you stupid fucking chimp -

No, I know what it means, you just didn't use it right.you're probably not smart enough to … think about things.
Lol, yeah, thinking about things. Really hard man. How am I supposed to do that?if you thought about it, you'd realize that i'm right.
Actually if you thought about it it would be you who'd realize it is me who is right. Haha, wow, talk about a knock down argument.all public schools should be bulldozed, the education departments permanently defunded, overnight, no warning, no comment, no alternative.
Yeah man, literacy and socialization, who needs em anyway?whats your fucking excuse?
The harmful effects of stratification that comes from making credentialing means-restricted. Have you really never had this conversation before? That's like the core argument for public education and has been for many many years. -

you seem highly adapted to the facebook environment. what did your father do wrong that you would type such passive aggressive fluff and then press enter as if it was ok? after lecturing me about what 'emasculation' is, no less.

oh man, are you a professional debater? watch out guys, we got a master debater here. science, fuck yeah!
Originally posted by Lanny Yeah man, literacy and socialization, who needs em anyway?
this is where you really prove the calibre of your mind. it's a low calibre. you're shooting .22's. "huurrrr durrrr, widout skool, HOW WILL WE KNOW HOW TO READ??????" without school, people might actually have a fucking interest in reading, you retarded piece of shit. "durrrr," *lanny drools on his chin* "without school, HOW WILL KIDS GET TO HANG OUT WITH OTHER KIDS? IT JUST WON'T HAPPEN!" and without prison, how would we produce shanks? we'd have a severe shortage of shanks if we shut down the prisons. i mean, like, buck makes knives too, but what about shanks?
i'm glad we have people like you to remind us that this is the best of all possible worlds. without people like you, i just don't fucking know what useless middle aged bureaucrats would do.

that's really clever. in order to keep the rich kids from pwning all the poor kids, what we're going to do is set up a largely useless system that produces morons on purpose and brutalizes the culture of learning that civilization once had. and then we're going to make good and sure that through state funding, all education becomes a going-through-of-the-motions the de-emphasizes merit until the poor kids have been enhancemented for only the dullest and most obedient, because of course, it's the state, so it has to treat everyone equally and or get equal results (WHATS THE DIFFERENCE LOL).
MEANWHILE the rich kids are balling harder because school never had fucking anything to do with why they balled, it really just fucking didn't you fucking basic bitch. due to the monopoly, college has become a mandatory 4 extra years of school for all the kids whose capacity to actually, really be bright and inventive was extracted from them with practiced surgical precision. now it's expensive. it used to be cheap as fuck to go to harvard or yale, they just didn't take idiots. back then they didn't pretend that everyone had equal capacity to be smart if they just had more money fo dem programs. BECAUSE THEY DON'T. people are born smart or stupid - and education comes as a result of intelligence. you can't educate an idiot. only a small fraction of the population can actually make any use of formal education.
end result of your 'ideas' - (here i might actually be using a word wrong, you're the expert, let me know) - is everyone becoming stupider and poorer, except for the rich kids, of course, who continue to hone their game. "hey i know this system isn't working at all, but everything would fall to fucking pieces if we abandoned this system we adopted 90 years ago, everything would grind to a halt, people would become disorderly if the government, which is composed of paralyzed cowards, stopped holding their hands"
lmfao, you're so fucking basic. you seriously fucking believe this shit holy shit lmfao. that's the school system for you. putting paralyzed cowardice on a pedestal.
18th century england with children working in coal mines was unironically a better system. '
in summary, kill yourself you stupid nigger. -

Lol, that's how you respond? "Hur, u r liek thos ppl I dnt liek at all!". Well meme'd friend, well meme'd.this is where you really prove the calibre of your mind. it's a low calibre. you're shooting .22's.
Wow man, firearms joke. Really showing off your intellectualism here.without school, people might actually have a fucking interest in reading, you retarded piece of shit.
Yeah man, just look at the astounding level of literacy in societies without public education. Back in the good ole days everyone was a renaissance man due to their rugged desire to better themselves as long as gubmint says out of the way.i'm glad we have people like you to remind us that this is the best of all possible worlds. without people like you, i just don't fucking know what useless middle aged bureaucrats would do.
Yeah man, way to keep it relevant. Good response to that time when I said anything at all about "useless middle aged bureaucrats".that's really clever. in order to keep the rich kids from pwning all the poor kids, what we're going to do is set up a largely useless system that produces morons on purpose and brutalizes the culture of learning that civilization once had. and then we're going to make good and sure that through state funding, all education becomes a going-through-of-the-motions the de-emphasizes merit until the poor kids have been enhancemented for only the dullest and most obedient, because of course, it's the state, so it has to treat everyone equally and or get equal results (WHATS THE DIFFERENCE LOL).
So I don't think public education represents "a largely useless system that produces morons on purpose" which means this whole screed means nothing to me. If you can convince that's a fair characterization I'll change my opinion on public education being a useful check on social stratification. Would you, if we could demonstrate significant social utility that's produced by public education, agree to also change your thinking on the issue? -
2017-01-14 at 6:39 AM UTCI love how the militant left has unwittingly created a militant right. If i had to choose, i would choose freedom. But, in the case that, that is not an option i am in favor of right-authoritarianism. It's better than socialism at least.

2017-01-14 at 6:42 AM UTCSo you want an empowered state that preserves conventional values? In the western world this would seem to imply like de jure persecution of non-majority sexualities and drug taboo.
Seems odd -

I want no state. But if i had to choose i would say that conventional values are, as a whole, better for society. -
2017-01-14 at 6:50 AM UTCAlso, i hardly think "minorities" whatever that means, would be persecuted in such a fashion. Instead, i would envision a state which places importance on the national interest, nuclear family and all that good stuff. But really, authoritarianism in any form is far removed from any political situation i would consider ideal.
