How about, instead of "connecting", they stopped stealing the kids future and for once thought them something useful?

@LukeAlmighty @fluffy

Teachers just teach the class they teach. It's up to the student to find useful classes to learn from.

@nerdman @fluffy
Not sure where you're from, but in here, primary schools have fixed curriculum, High schools have a fixed curriculum and Universities have 80 percent fixed curriculum, so where the fuck am I supposed to choose?

@LukeAlmighty @fluffy

Other than that... Primary school should be hardcore math, reading and writing. So that by grade 7 or 8 you can do basic calculus. After that, everything elective.

@nerdman @fluffy
100 percent agree about the primary school.

About the universities, in here, we do have to gather enough points, but 80 percent of the subjects are selected for us, so if we do not care about the diversity corporatism classes, we can just quit outright.

@LukeAlmighty @nerdman @fluffy It's crazy how you get points for attending a lecture on diversity tbh. They probably know that is the only way people will attend them at university.

Meanwhile, I'll happily listen to hours of Milton Friedman and Thomas Sowell for free in my spare time. I'll choose them over purpose-made entertainment much of the time. Take that how you will. :friedman:

@LukeAlmighty @fluffy @nerdman
@leyonhjelm @LukeAlmighty @fluffy @nerdman Ahh, but will it give you points for university credits? I didn't think so!
@sim

Why would I want university credits when I could get educated instead?

I was at 2 universities.

on one to get fired in one year, but learned enough shit to ensure a good life

And a second one where I've wasted 5 years for 1 paper

I got a job even without that paper, so take that for what you will...

@LukeAlmighty

I went back for a paper almost a decade ago, it hasn't been a factor in any job. If the economy had been decent at the time I would not have bothered.
