Solutions first; 1) Home school, and teach your children yourself, the computer and Internet can and does teach anything.
- or your children may not live to college. The Gauntlet of Moral Perils has now become Mortal Perils.
2) If you hand over your children to indifferent functionaries seeded with motivated and energetic fiends who easily brush aside their perfunctory protests, then you have abandoned your children to the fates and they know this about you...
3) The Reform is to Raze 🔥 it all and never again rebuild the Hallowed Halls ... of nearly limitless predations. > this speaks to... what is the purpose?
What is the point of this system?
It isn’t educational. It’s a marshaling of the young.
Into Barracks.
The Purpose of Herding the Population into Barracks from an Early Age in Sparta and then Prussia was to mobilize the entire nation as an army of soldiers or workers. We adopted the Prussian system in the 19th century in America because like all the world we were dazzled by the results; but never considered the purpose until... now.
The purpose of the Prussian Education System was to make Prussia a more powerful state , as it was a tiny state surrounded by enemies. As it happens the purpose of a machine is what it does... but here a machine’s core purpose came through in warped ways despite Dewey and the rest trying to turn the schools to some Utopian goals... no doubt “peaceful” but that’s not what happened. What happened are warped minds making more warped minds. It’s as if the Quakers adopted the Spartan Agorae and were amazed to find angry, very angry Pacifists came out... no as if - that being part of the warped results.
The other Warping is of course money and grift, for America and indeed the British Empire before her were always a merchant republic; Carthage. I say Carthage without animus.
One may consider the English the Phoenician cities of Tyre and Nineveh and America Carthage- a merchant and trader and manufacturing, food growing constitutional republic without animus or invoking Cato’s dread sentence- or rather we may as we are Americans. That we seek to be prosperous and mind our own business, that “The Business of the American People is Business”* as opposed to war, pillaging, tyranny or militarism, or Sparta, or Rome... is nothing to be embarrassed over.
Americans mind their own business, and need to add schooling and raising their children to the list of side gigs.
What we aren’t, don’t need to be, and can’t be is Empire, or Rome, nor Great Britain. We are expressly set up NOT to be Empire, we are wired for what we are... a Federation. America is the Eternal Federation from the Iroquois to the Internet and all political arrangements in between... and we cannot do Empire. This includes the Empire of the minds and bodies of the young, your young oh sacred parents and not mine...
School them yourselves, you addled fools, so that they may live and look at you with respect, as you don’t abandon them to a gauntlet of twisted fates.
Meanwhile... Central Government over the Americas fails again as it did with the Mohawk Terror Troops of the Iroquois, as the Crown failed... so this fails.
So Sic Semper Tyrannus ...
and Sic Semper Centralis...
And get your children out of that House of Petty Horrors.
I used to write college essays for money including a great deal of grievance focused papers which were always the easiest owing to the prefab nature of the possible conclusions you were allowed to draw. I was able to produce A level work at nominally good schools using little more than my passing knowledge of Foucault, Fanon, and the dust jacket or wiki blurb of whatever the topic was. I point this out not to toot my own horn but to illustrate that the entire discipline is an exercise in plagiarism. There's only so many variations of the same mad lib template you can churn out when the foundational texts and ideas are so poor.

All the Gay scandal at Harvard shows is that jews are still the top dog in the US. It is not a victory for the right.
