Math education in the empire is TERRIBLE. There is no actual math taught. At best it's applied analogies like this pizza BS. The teachers have never taken any advanced math so they don't even know what they're not teaching. The goals (eg. calculus) are completely worthless. The entire system is stuck in the 1700s. It's a complete failure. It's intentional too. The goal is creating obedient, little computers not critical thinkers. That would be a threat to the system. This image is just the tiniest tip of the iceberg.
George Carlin on education.
We're in the cursed timeline where Carlin didn't lead the second American revolution.
Real talk though, it's because we don't have an education system, we've got a babysitting system. POSIWID.
To be fair, have you seen what childcare costs?! No sense subsidizing that through taxes when you can just make kids jump through BS hoops in an adversarial system as a form of childcare (and then not even run it the entire workday because fuck you)
The empire?
You might afford too much malice to something that might be just a generational incompetence and total lack of care. Smart kids don't increase this quarter's profits, therefore are irrelevant.
Thats an awfuly convenient incompetence for the ruling class then.
Also, I dont know how things are where you live, but here in méxico we keep hearing, year after year, how topics and subjects are removed from school plans. Seems like a very obvious effort to "teach less" every year.
No. See sibling comment where I linked to George Carlin.
I love George very much, but he was a comedian, and you linked his comedy show. Brilliant, like everything he did, comedy show.
