Very educational film from a time when American schools were about instilling good civic values.

[Tehon]

People are divided by economic class but that's always going to exist. Kids figure that out pretty quick. Not a bad thing. It exists everywhere in the world

It is a bad thing. As we should be learning, but apparently don't.

 

[initforme]

I'm not blaming the school for it. I don't blame the school for anything. I put more blame on parents and the kids themselves. One is responsible for ones progress ultimately.

American schools do instill good civic values, values that focus on including all people, being respectful to all people, being generous and kind to all people. Old time values excluded what was best for everyone and focused on what was good for those who fit into a prescribed form--essentially white, male, and Christian. Things are different nowadays.

Modern education is about dividing people on racial and economic lines.

Right wingers are always looking for a scapegoat to conceal the failures of the capitalist system.

Capitalism is the most successful economic system ever devised.

People are divided by economic lines. It's called class.

Schools didn't do it. Our system of production did.

Stop making excuses for it.

Leftists teach people to obsess over racial and economic divide. America is a land of opportunity for all. It is the best country in the world.

I went to school in this country. No such thing took place.

If you accept it, that's fine. But why blame it on school? It's ridiculous.

The educational system, especially at the college level, needs to stop pushing SJW crap like intersectionality, wailing on and on about supposed racism and sexism, and stop teaching people to resent the rich. Elementary schools should be drilling the dangers of communism and political radicalism.

I'm arguing against the thread's premise.

They should also be taught the reality how much it costs to live comfortably in america. 20 bucks an hour isn't going to cut it.

You are arguing in favor of indoctrination.

You don't even realize that you have been indoctrinated into the American way of life from childbirth.

In addition they should be taught that good workers are always ready to walk away from their current employers for a higher paying job.

Is it indoctrination to teach them that Nazism was wrong? Communism is as bad as Nazism.

Elementary kids aren't old enough to study that stuff. Best left for those that want to take the class in high school.

Teaching people what to think is indoctrination. That is what you are proposing.

Education should be teaching people how to think.

Clearly, your teachers failed you.

Nice cliché. Modern "educators" are political indoctrinators. Massive numbers of students are "studying" in fields that are nothing more than pseudo-disciplines of political activism. It is non-productive and divisive.

Divisive in what way?

 

[WaitingFor2020]

It is not news that many of our public schools are failing to put out a good product.

Yeah, when teachers with MBAs are forced to work second jobs because their pay is shit, I'm sure that affects their daytime hours in the classroom.

What's wrong with Communists? They created the KGB which spawned your hero Putin, whom Trump loves and adores. Just watch the Helsinki meeting again.
But just remember...those two hours they spent alone will always be a mystery!

Our productive system is inherently divisive. It is driven by competition.
Your entire ideology is every man for himself, hyper individualism. Winners and losers. How much more divisive can it get?

Underneath all that you expect unity? There is nothing left to unite around.

It is very man for himself to an extent. To no extent is it every ethnic group or economic class for themselves. I beieve in individualism, not racism or corporatism.

Traditional education in America often sought to instill values of cohesion and cooperation among its citizens. This film highlights the divisive and destructive policies of progressive radicals and was actually created to be used as an educational film in schools to build racial unity and economic cooperation.

Just shared. A video that must be shown
