I have no problem with issuing a value judgement like I did. I absolutely believe it because I belief in personal choice and the associated consequences. Especially in a case where there is no burden to entry involved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I'm gonna do my own research and trust it over experts" is not critical thinking, is being stupid. We're standing on the shoulders of others whether we like it or not - we trust scientists every time we drive a car, go over a bridge or take an elevator and this shouldn't be any different. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still out there in roughly the same percentage it always has been IMO. It just used to be that those who do not possess it did not have such large platforms.

Yeah, I didn't wanna take this on another hell ride going down what a joke the education system has become. Let's just say, they've gotten what they wanted out of it and leave it at that.

It is very likely that unless you individually have dedicated your life to obtaining or improving some piece of knowledge, the information you "discover" (read: uncover on the internet after it's been dumbed-down for you by middle-persons who loosely and biasedly interpret the actual hard data), you are much, much, much better off not trusting your life to your own "research". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berndt_toast Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 If you're going to quote MLK, first, don't. But if you do, second, don't. But if you eventually do, third, get it right. Actual quote: “There are just laws and there are unjust laws. I would be the first to advocate obeying just laws. One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws.” 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's just say, they've gotten what they wanted out of it and leave it at that. You mean the weekly babysitting service that we pay vast sums of money for? Let's call it for what it is. If you go back to the covid lockdowns, parents were crying about schools being closed, because they couldn't handle the excessive interaction time between themselves and their children.
