Your pessimism is very unfortunate @⚡Clark⚡

@missliterallywho nobody respects a degree.

Individually many of us are getting into GOP infrastructure and convincing TPUSA civnats to come our way. As a group we are building parallel institutions to take the place of old ones when they go kaput

Well you clearly don’t

Lmao ok bro

This movement is multilateral

@⚡Clark⚡ Employers do, Clark.

IE should make it's own degrees

<:teehee:381917632359563264>

I'm sure employers would respect them more

@Jacob Written in crayon

We can have a graduation ceremony over the fireside

@DixieBoy76 - KY no that's gay

eeductation is worthless, self educateed are always better

it's gonna be cool and have Dragon's Eyes on it

and printed on nice paper

I’m self educated in recognizing cold takes

Yep, that’s a cold one

Do y’all actually think you’re going to retake institutional power by just trying a bit harder, or is it a cope? Actually curious here

"oh, I see you have a degree in *squints* race studies from Evropa Vniversity"

Do you think you’re winning over anyone without making arguments other than broad generalizations pertaining to you

Actually curious

arguments dumb

Also curious

What is “just trying a bit harder” mean

@⚡Clark⚡ I sense a bit of broad generalizations on your part.

I’m an academic at heart and my life has only been more problematic when I’ve lied to myself about that fact.

Big brains rise up

@DeusVolk Same here. I always thought I was just “lazy” but instead I’m just more of an academic than a blue collar. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Nobody knows what will happen we have to be ready for anything

tbh I have no idea what I am

A blue collar life can be pure torture if you're not cut out for it. I've watched my husband try to fit in that box since we moved here. It's not working.

@⚡Clark⚡
At the core of your argument, I generally agree that the university system is largely a sham and in an ideal world much of our state funding should be cut from it. Our high school educational system should be improved and universities should be few and relegated to the elite with a limited amount of useful fields taught (maths, engineering, science, etc...a limited amount in the arts)

But. that is not the world that we live in. Attending college and studying a useful program is THE way to get ahead - and all of our members who can, should. You're much more useful holding our views and being successful and connected, than holding our views and not.

@missliterallywho interesting. Would you mind elaborating a bit more?

@missliterallywho I believe that 100%. Logan is mega brained.

Lots of corrupt people, systems and infrastructure out there, but totally withdrawing from it is simply not the solution, or an option.

I guess he needs to become who he is

Nothing doxy, just curious - is your husband more of salesman type? Did he take a tradesman job because he couldn’t find anything else?

Opting out of the upper class is not how we retain the power of the upper class. At the end of it, blue collar work is lower class. We need our people to do it, but if we don't have worthy leaders, we'll just be thankless slaves instead of skilled tradesmen

Right now, we have too many white men going to college for degrees that are useless.
