Post-war, post-strife, corporate control ensures harmony and plenty. An athlete excels at a deadly game, and the idea of excellence and beating the odds in a world of conforming drug-doped nobodies makes him dangerous. Individuality and the excess of self.

My Response to James Lindsay’s Video ‘Critical Education is Brainwashing’

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjw-4b7QXrg James Lindsay argues that the education system is based on a framework (constructivism) that attempts to enmesh students emotionally, situationally, to engage them in their learning experience.

Blindly raging industriousness, for example —this typical virtue of an instrument —is represented as the way to wealth and honor and as the poison that best cures boredom and the passions.
