What is referred to as “education” is a major factor in the degeneration of society.  The longer people remain in the education system, the greater the number of evils we face.  The state is afraid of real education.  They’ll pretend they have truth on their side.  The truth is uncomfortable.  It’s no small feat to accept truth.  Particularly, the longer you’ve been propagandized, the harder it is to swallow those bitter pills.

You’re waiving your claim to follow the truth if you submit to being an educator on the part of the state.  There is something higher than truth.  Namely, the state.  Everything the state requires will be on top of the list.  I don’t doubt it’s possible to have an honest educator in the state system.  However, it’s not the norm.  The educators have an obligation to the state.  An honest educator would be an anomaly in the system.

The number of truly educated is a small number.  This certainly doesn’t mean the rest are incapable of being educated.  The amount of propaganda you ingest makes it more difficult to become truly educated.  Today’s “education system” is a monstrously overgrown propaganda system.  Education credentials are nearly worthless.  Not completely, nearly.  The demands of the modern education system aren’t the demands of a true education.

How many amazing individuals don’t live up to their potential because they’ve been held down by the system itself?  Rather than having thinking individuals, strict conformity to propaganda is required.  Some do make it past this roadblock, but many don’t.  We don’t see how many people have been artificially prevented from achieving their full potential.  This pseudo-education system will, and has, crushed human potential.

The pseudo-education system just wants you to obey and repeat.  It’s not designed to produce thinking individuals, capable of weighing ideas.  The idea is to produce a uniform society.  This way they’ll go along with the overlords, and keep choosing them in the popularity contest.  It’s a way to mass produce a propaganda army.  They’ll repeat what they’ve been told to repeat.  A real education is extremely rare.
