I wrote this because the crumbling education system is something deeply personal to me. It’s not just broken—it’s familiar.
Has anyone else ever felt like you had to unlearn and reteach yourself just to actually understand the world?
Because when a system fails us that hard, we’re forced to become our own teachers. And that’s where resistance begins.
Wow, I really appreciate this response. You’re right—what we’re dealing with isn’t just an education system that’s “not working,” it’s one that’s working exactly as intended. The standardization of thought, emotional suppression, and the illusion of choice all serve the same machinery.
You nailed it with: “Our most powerful weapon is questioning and reading from all sources.” That’s literally the whole point of my piece—if we aren’t allowed to ask who benefits from our ignorance, then we’re not being educated… we’re being indoctrinated. Thank you for bringing that clarity.
