@Timcast I slightly disagree with your latest vid when you say the "left" says there is no bias against the right... they actually seem to be saying there is a bias AGAINST the left!

Instead of focusing on the core problem

I recommended switching to modafinil instead and after ~3 weeks of being off adderall...I was back to my old self and could enjoy driving over bridges and only being slightly apprehensive with heights vs the extreme fear I was experiencing while on it

A core problem is actually believing boys having more energy than girls is a problem.

I believe there have been studies that show that is accurate. However, I haven't looked into it myself. I will say that people learn differently and treating everyone the same is an issue

I'm also not suggesting that ADD/ADHD isn't a thing

If I grew up a decade later, they probably would of put me on that shit.

I'm just saying that it seems to be something that is assigned to more people now than in the past and the drugs that help people with those symptons have a TON of side affects that only seem to be treated by taking more drugs

Yes, because boys being treated like defective girls is becoming the norm.

defective girls?

broken, not working properly, needs to be fixed (with drugs), etc.

```I'm also not suggesting that ADD/ADHD isn't a thing```
In some cases it might be, but that might be fixed with other things than Ritalin

I agree there

boys aren't girls, treating them like they are girls is fucked up and ofc they will appear defective, because they aren't girls.

Problem is: School is garbage, Teachers are Garbage.

well, in short, yes.

and @Paradox I understand the defective part...I guess I misunderstood your previous point

which...I think I agree with you more on now (with the new understanding)

I mean, imagine if we treated girls like boys....what kinda shit would we put them on?

Good teachers exist...I'm not sure how true that is anymore though

endangered species.

Schools: we need to ban recess because they need to learn more
Also schools: kids are not sitting still as well as they used to

we wouldn't be able to

we can't even treat women the same as men.

well, we shouldn't, that's my point.

I agree

there are differences and that should be accepted and then we can go from there.

agreed

"kids don't pay attention in school, they must have a disorder"
"Or they are fucking kids and have never, in the history of the human race, sat still longer than 5 minutes and you expect them to do that for hours on end"

but unfortunately the "mainstream" message is to do just that...while promoting things that do the exact opposite

Yes, it's bullshit and I call it out when i see it.

I'm glad. I feel like many here would

I do when I can

sadly though...it's an unpopular opinion and can at times negatively affect jobs/etc

so...it has to be done in the "correct" way

not sure it's an unpopular one, it's just not a politcally correct one

thankfully i am not a politician

it's not a mainstream one

who's mainstream?

if the mainstream isn't the popular opinion is it really the mainstream?

I think it can be brought up in conversation...but in some cases...unless it is brought up in a certain way...the people you are talking to will only hear the talking points they hear on X show
