No it isn't

But people mean well

This is how single mothers made men

You lost me there

9 out of 10 mean well at least

I don't have this problem with older people as a rule

@Sigma clear understanding of a subject also requires clear understanding of how people may react to the subject, in order to adapt the subject to their needs. It's mainly experience of talking about the subject lol

Elaborate?

There we go. That's true

Single mothers do contribute to the problem a little, and the education system plays a massive role in the lack of original articulation of thought to one another. I blame the grading system without any meaningful feedback. Just a fucking certificate at the end. Well done.

its just a feedback loop

Yeah

Edu isn't even understanding

People just **do** things

People are taught how to "not think" about anything. They are also taught that this process is called "thinking". It takes a long time to break away from that

Where is the why behind my thoughts put into answers? What is their life experience and why should I trust their grade of me? Also valid questions.

You think you'd understand why algebraic equations are so and so but nope "because that's how it is" REEEEEE

I once got into an argument with someone and they then began to argue that we were making the same argument, when he couldn't be more wrong. He merely wanted the argument to be over and for everyone to be friends. I respect people more who can finish something or at least say they don't want to talk about it anymore

Ask too much and the system will make you feel inadequate

Cause no one wants you to think

For yourself

@Yowilkat damn

I judged the system long before they started shaming me for thinking. That rendered their efforts ineffective because I knew that they were the deficient ones, not me

These are all problems I've had with the education system

They don't want you to do more than what they deem is necessary, because it sheds the limelight on their lack of empathy.

Arguably the system is useless in making you understand things

After school, I got into reading and I've learned how bad I've been fucked in the head by the way things are with education. That caused me some anger

If you begin to understand things, you will undermine the system. They want you emotive and non logical

I don't think I fucking changed my perspective on life once I got to know that y=mx+c

They don't teach critical thinking and basic life skills, they expect your parents to do all of that

These days, what parents?

algebra is just thought processes on paper in its simplest terms.

**my parents are part of the system**

Knowing how to learn. School wants you to memorize and regurgitate.

Sorry, i mean Grandparents, this is 2019 after all...

Everyone is part of the system to an extent

People make their life to surround and support the system to the point that they think its normal to think in a certain way

Some think outside the box though

and realize there's more to life than supporting it

People seem shocked when you seem to "know" all the answers. It's simply memorisation. It shocks them even more when you start questioning why it is the why it is, and offering improved systems for use.

Ikr?
