I'll take it

pro everything most dems are pro

including college gibs

College is useless

Might as well be free

Dammit. I don’t want that shit. I pay a union to get me great fucking healthcare I don’t want the government fucking it up <:why:462286147473637407>

some college is less useless than others

If go to college just to go to college ~~ and your parents aren’t paying for it~~ you are kinda a dumbass

She's "popular" with the right more because she's willing to actually talk to the right rather than the <:REE:541208936330821646> -ing that most of the dems do.
Plus she's anti-war and has served, both of which are pluses in the populist right's book.
In actuality they'd never vote for her, but she'd be viewed as a far more tolerable dem than pretty much all the others, almost entirely because she views the right's existence as tolerable.

If it's less useless then you won't mind paying extra for it, but as it currently stands the system prays upon young idiots and boomers being sold a rose tinted view of college education

We are post information scarcity

you go to college to get a degree tho

unless youre rich

MOMMY MILKIES RISE UP

and the degree is to get an associated job

Go to trade school or look into certifications. Great cheap way to start a career

and completely different than university started careers

those exist by the way

imagine thinking half of the nation you live in is the enemy... what a sad existence lol

Unless that degree is in STEM or is at least STEM-adjacent, it's not worth the paper it's printed on tbh

and are completely valid lines of employment

I went to college to get a degree, it took forever because i refused to take out loans. Now i have my reward, 2 useless degrees and no credit

well it depends

even psychology can be valuable after a fashion

@nobuyuki smh

Free/cheap trade schools is something I wouldn't object to. But not collages in their current state.

sociology is always worthless

but mental health is a big deal

if you have a high enough degree

likewise behavioral studies

Sociology is a marketing degree in disguise

and stuff along those lines

@leavethisbotnet they don’t need to be free since they are pretty cheap to begin with. Just take out a loan and pay it off when you use the knowledge you earn there

Free trade schools are what unions were supposed to do

unions werent supposed to do anything

Giving it out for free takes away the responsibility of it

the original conception of a union is nothing like the abortions they are today

Psychology is something I'd consider STEM-adjacent; if you can avoid the politics it's based on patterns and something approximating scientific rigor

unions are like medieval guilds

except more corrupt
