Education and brainwashing

I was aggressively brainwashed as a kid. Almost all of you were as well. It is dangerous to NOT brainwash kids. I was brainwashed to love my country and capitalism and to hold the melting pot as a cherished goal. That software propelled America forward. Kids today are brainwashed into an oppressed-oppressor mindset that guarantees destruction. That's partly because the brainwashing of American kids has been delegated to China via TikTok. You can't say you didn't see it coming. It's obvious.

I have begun to think that education was always supposed to be politicised. People just forgot about this and ended up giving the keys of this henhouse to the wolves i.e. those who wan to subvert the minds of impressionable children. Thus we now have students cheering on Hamas.

Oct 5, 2023 dying vs changing one's mind

 

From 2252 Oct 5, 2023

20:45 I saw this question uh from un Hoodwink on X. What percentage of woke liberals would rather die by the hands of their publicly promoted ideology (in other words open borders and defunding the police) versa admit they were wrong and then work with the right to fix the problems? 

Now what do you think? How many Democrats would literally, now we're talking literally, literally actually die, how many would actually choose a high, well not certainty of death, but how many would choose a large percentage chance of dying violently rather than admit they're wrong? It's probably 90%

That's my guess because that's how cognitive dissonance works. Until their final breath they would still think they were right. There would be no point that would ever change their mind because once you're really really committed to an opinion you will actually risk your life so you don't have to change it. 

You wouldn't take certain death if I gave you a choice of all right yeah you can hold that opinion but in five days you will be dead for sure and we guarantee it. Well, that might change somebody's opinion because we have a survival Instinct but if you said there's, you know, your opinion is a really higher chance you're going to get killed, like substantially higher, they would say, I know, but it's the principle of the thing. So no I don't think the risk of being killed by their own policies would change their minds.

I don't think that's how minds work. We just stick with what we thought was true and we never leave basically.

Streamed live on Aug 28, 2023

there's

34:25

going to be another George Floyd uh op so whatever you're thinking about racial

34:30

relations now that will be completely transformed with the next uh George Floyd

34:36

so you know that there could have been George Lloyd's for four years during uh Biden right easily there could have been

34:43

more George Floyd's I'm pretty sure that whatever you know problems there are

34:49

between police and the black community I'm pretty sure they didn't get fixed when Biden became president right but

34:55

the way we treated them which ones we highlighted what the news decided was news you know probably you know CIA

35:02

influence on the news um so there will be guaranteed

35:08

something that was going to happen on his own I don't think it would be an OP to create a crime but I think there's

35:14

some crime that was going to happen on his own we'll have just the right elements to make it the only thing

35:19

that's a story you know the George Floyd it so it doesn't matter what Trump's numbers are today

35:25

those will be wiped out by the next uh the next brainwashing operation and you it's I mean you could just

35:32

um you can put it on your calendar practically it's guaranteed

35:37

all right uh another story about the Maryland schools and I guess the

35:42

Baltimore schools in particular in which there are zero people who are not

35:49

learned anything in school that that's the summary and none of the students learned anything in their schools

35:55

they're all failures uh to which I say is that a national story or is that people getting exactly

36:01

what they wanted they keep voting for it they must want

36:07

it if they wanted something different I imagine they would go get it for themselves do you know why do you know why we don't

36:13

have this problem in my town so in my town we have pretty highly rated schools by California standards

36:21

because people in my town want good schools that's it

36:26

they want it that's that's the whole story they just want it so they make sure that they get

36:32

it Baltimore has no functioning schools as far as I can tell

36:38

but every every year they vote they go vote for it and they vote for

36:43

more of this apparently so I don't care about Baltimore's failing Schools they're getting what they ask for

36:50

and they asked for it every two to four years they re-ask for it and they re-ask

36:56

for it they know what to do to fix it they don't want to I don't know why and when I say they

37:02

don't want to that never means everybody right it means there's not enough people who care

37:07

so what should you do about that situation should you take some of your money that

37:13

you earned and maybe try to give it to them no that would be crazy you should just

37:19

avoid it in any way you can just get away just go where that's not a problem move

37:25

to my town my town has good schools problem solved all right yeah move away let the cities

37:32

fail the faster the cities fail the better off we all will be because they need to hit bottom and apparently

37:38

they're not close so they've got to get a lot worse so when nobody in Baltimore can read and

37:46

everybody dies by murder that would be about the time that something will change

37:51

all right uh but I'll tell you what I'm not going to do I'm not going to make it my problem

38:00

everybody agree with that I'm not going to make that my problem if you want your problem to be solved

38:07

you need to leave it's it's not really the hardest thing in the world to understand what needs to

38:13

be done and if you want to leave and you can't that's something I would put some energy into if it turns out there were a

38:19

lot of people who just wanted to get out of their bad situation physically and just go anywhere just anywhere that

38:26

there's a real school I would be behind throwing some energy and money beyond that but no I'm not

38:33

going to fix a place where the people don't want it fixed that's not going to happen all right
