Education

Education is our passport to the future. Or, at least it was. WTF is going on in our schools right now. lets talk about it!

Why Does Hitler Get It Worse Than Stalin

Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin are two of the most brutal dictators in all of human history. Of the two, Hitler is by far the more recognizable name despite the fact that Stalin is responsible for 3-4 times the amount of genocide as Hitler, why? Could it be that the lives of those murdered by Hitler are considered more valuable than those taken by Stalin? Could it be that the U.S. wanted to erase all memory that it had dealings with Stalin prior to the cold war. Furthermore, it's even more perplexing that we never hear much of anything about Mao Zedong. He was responsible for more genocide than Hitler and Stalin combined so he deserves his own separate post.

History Between America & Stalin

Evil and selfishness are hallmarks of the human species. Although Kanye West has fallen from grace, he said something profound in his interview with Lex Fridman. He said, "history is written by the winners", he couldn't have been more spot on. With the exception of the Vietnam war, America has been the winner in all major global conflicts. As a result, America has been able to curate history favorably for itself. Also, Americans like to portray themselves as the world's moral compass (which couldn't be more hypocritical). The fact of the matter is, America and the Stalin led Soviet Union fought side by side during WWII and that must never be forgotten.

Since America likes to be perceived as virtuous, lets examine that. The Gulag in the soviet union was a forced labor system that was instituted during the reign of Joseph Stalin. Its was essentially a system of slavery that he justified using the communist ideology. The estimated 30 million deaths under Stalin came as a manifestation of the Gulag. Knowing all this information, the U.S. didn't hesitate to enter the war with him as an ally. This was a classic case of the U.S. abandoning morals for convenience which seems to happen often for a country that holds itself in such high esteem. I'll probably talk more about this another day, but for now, peace!

Attractive Teachers Are Bad For Schools

Alright, folks, let's dive into a topic that's no laughing matter – trying to focus in class when you have an attractive teacher. We've all been there, sitting in those desks, trying to soak up knowledge while battling the distractions that come with it. So, let's take a closer look at the challenges that arise when beauty meets the classroom.

When Beauty Takes the Stage: You walk into class, ready to conquer the world of academia, and boom! There they are, your attractive teacher, commanding attention like they're on a runway. Suddenly, you find yourself torn between absorbing knowledge and appreciating their physical appearance. It's like trying to solve a Rubik's Cube blindfolded – an uphill battle, my friends.

The Art of Concentration: Staying focused in the presence of an attractive teacher is no joke. It's like trying to resist the gravitational pull of a massive black hole – nearly impossible. But fear not, because we're in this together, and I've got a few insights to share.

Conclusion: Navigating the challenges of staying focused in class when faced with an attractive teacher is like walking a tightrope without a safety net. It's not easy, but it's part of the adventure. So, my friends, let's embrace the struggle, use humor to our advantage, channel the attraction towards intellectual admiration, and actively engage in the learning process. Remember, education is a journey, and sometimes the distractions we encounter along the way add a touch of spice to the experience. Stay focused, stay curious, and remember to find the humor in life's little distractions.

A.I. Should Replace Teachers 1st

A.I. is officially here and it's not going away any time soon. A.I. is going to change the world in ways that are currently incomprehensible to average minds. That said, I'm not a major advocate of A.I. because it's likely going to put most people out of work. However, if there were a sector I would support and advocate completely removing the human element from, it'd be education. Education is the one sector of western civilization that needs to be completely overhauled from top to bottom. The education system has been failing students and broader society for decades now and I think the implications of A.I. would be far more beneficial than they would be detrimental to society.

The Situation

First off, school(particularly college) has become an absolute joke. Once regarded as a rite of passage towards success, college nowadays is viewed as an over-expensive waste of time. Theoretically, education is supposed to be where students enter "stupid" and leave "smart", or at least smarter than they were. However, over the last decades, kids are not only not coming out "smarter", they're coming out noticeably stupider. Nowadays, parents are more frustrated than ever because schools have essentially become activist factories. Furthermore, I think this shift is a direct consequence of faculties/administrations that are quite frankly, terrible at their jobs.

How A.I. Would Help

Secondly, the value of a degree has plummeted because they give one to everybody, and everyone is not deserving. Throughout college, I've met countless intelligent people who got lower grades in class simply because they weren't ass-kissers or because they disagreed with a professor. Conversely, I've seen even more complete fucking idiots get great grades in classes they had no business in, simply because they were great ass-kissers. I think A.I. would eliminate biases of that nature almost entirely.

In conclusion, college has become one of the most expensive investments a person can make in their lifetime. I think the number comes out to something like 100x more expensive now than in previous generations. Therefore, I would support A.I. replacing people for this reason as well. Once you invest in the initial cost of acquiring the machines, you no longer have to worry about paying teacher salaries, which should theoretically drive down the cost. Of course, you'd probably need to employ more security guards to maintain the peace in classrooms but their salaries are much lower than that of teachers and administrations. Peace!

Woke SJW’s Should Have Their Own Country

For a time, being "woke" was a badge of honor in society. It meant that you saw/acknowledged the implicit injustices and prejudices prevalent in the world. It didn't necessarily mean you were trying to do anything about them but it did mean you acknowledged their existence. Over time, the term has morphed into something more insidious. When you hear the term "woke" now, you immediately think of a person who's ideologically driven to the point of madness. They're typically very passionate about their cause and view themselves as the worlds leading moral arbiters. Furthermore, they believe this pseudo-morality gives them the latitude to appalling ideas and rhetoric that have no logical foundation. What's worse, is that these people seem to be multiplying as the year's progress.

Who The Woke Are

These people tend typically have the same characteristics as well. They are progressive leaning, activist types that champion LGBT movements, which aren't inherently corrosive things. However, once you see how these people attempt to apply their ideology practically, you get a sense of why they're so insufferable. The American political system was founded upon the principle of respectful discourse; its the basis of the 1st amendment. Furthermore, the 1st amendment provides latitude for the best, most sound ideas to manifest themselves. Over the past years, it has become clear that this principle is under siege. The "Woke mob" as they've become commonly known as, do not engage in respectful discourse, and they don't want to. Any discourse with one of these people typically degenerates rapidly primarily because most of their ideas have no logical foundation to support them.

Why They Should Have Their Own Society

That said, I think the "woke" should have their own country apart from the rest of us. I think they should have their own society and be granted land that's capable of sustaining their basic needs (food, shelter, etc.). Then, we should bid them farewell and good fortune as they navigate the intricacies of developing a new functional nation. I say this because some of their points do have an ethical basis. For example, they should feel like they can express themselves free of judgement, and they should be able to call each other what ever pronoun they choose on what ever day they feel like choosing it. However, the rest of us should not have to participate in the practice of their ideology either.

To that end, I think it'd be relatively easy to get them their own country because they make up a small percentage of our overall societal population even though they seem to be the loudest on social platforms. I also think their ideas and practices would be so stupid that their society would collapse into chaos within a decade, so we'd just be able to reclaim the land once they've destroyed themselves. We'd just have to redevelop once they've had their way with it. Peace!

Feminism Is Killing Schools

Feminism Is Killing Schools

Equality! That is the word that feminists use as a vale to disguise the true nature/intentions of their movement, misandry(male misogyny). When the feelings of students are prioritized over facts or reality, which women tend to express far more than men, that inherently manifests inequality. Feminism has had a malignant influence on academia which has all but plummeted the male population; particularly on college campuses. As a former student, I witnessed the current academic landscape for males firsthand, and the majority of the misandry displayed comes primarily from faculty members which are primarily female-dominated.

Furthermore, according to the numbers, female instructors on average, are more likely to give male students lower marks than female students. They are also more likely to find typical male behaviors problematic. Also, with the emergence of feminism, the effort put toward educating male students has been completely set on the proverbial "back burner" in favor of the education of females. In some cases, particularly in the social sciences, men are not even allowed to speak in any contradictory manner. The combination of these factors in concert with the fact that teaching is a predominantly female profession(74--76%), spells doom for men in education, and they are beginning to realize it, which is why they are dropping out at an alarming frequency.
