It is the genuine lack of any critical thinking that gets me, I have no idea how they managed this, but they did.

Fact Check: Does the WEF have the stated Goal that You will own nothing and be Happy ?
Some years ago I dug up some old exam papers from the net, from the 1980s, just to check if it was my faulty memory, or whether exams are now much easier.
the real difference is, as you said, the lack of critical thinking during the test. The syllabus in my own subject, maths and physics, has not changed hugely, but two things have happened. The syllabus has been granulated to the point of being a bag of factoids, so the kids have to learn and memorise lots of stuff, BUT the questions do not deviate from the micro-managed syllabus. In the past, questions would ask some basic knowledge and then try to apply it to some new given situation. That doesn't really happen anymore, and in those subjects where it does, the questions are really very basic or the answers are expected to be so relative as to be difficult to get anything wrong.
Not everyone goes through lots of school exams, but it means that being critical is not taught at all! I taught Thinking Skills for a year and every student complained it was the hardest thing they'd ever done - to the detriment of the school, they then decided it was to be an optional class... so guess what happened...
I can guess the rest.
My nephew the first week he left school came to work for me, I put him on the most simple of jobs, visual inspection of automotive parts, the good parts had to have a green label with OK to use, and he had to write visually inspected, by the time he asked me how to spell visually for the millionth time I had no choice but to let him go, tough love.
So I asked my oldest sister who is a supposed teacher and even headmistress for a while, till she had a mental breakdown, (the stress was tooooo much) why children are leaving school and not being able to spell, she said it is NOT on the curriculum and you can not mark children down for BAAADDD SPEELINGGG.
My mother said that started during the late 60's so how come I can speeeeeellll?
That's fuckin insane, right!? Creative linguistics.
I corrected my kid every time - and we did spelling tests - and (this has also vanished) dictation!! I was told that was a now useless skill - except it teaches kids grammar and style and spelling, all on the sly and together. ;-) teachers are so fuckin smart, eh!? And my kid enjoys dictation - weirdly, coz it looks like her work - is her hand doing the writing, so she can see what it's like to write properly. All "useless skills" no doubt.
Like when I teach my kid maths - here it is - one page - maybe 5 concepts - that's a whole 30-page chapter!! "But that's so easy!" she says. "Yes, it is!" I smile.
We ended up doing bits of A-level work just coz if you follow a train of thought you end up going outside the little syllabus box. But so what? That's fun!
The thing about being clueless about spelling is that it goes hand in hand with being inarticulate (I do know a few exceptions of very smart dyslexics) - these are not typos, they are just manifested ignorance.
My kid has now got into the etymology of words, something not obvious here as latin and greek are as popular as Sanskrit.
so we start: dystopia - disturbing - disorganised - disappointed - discord - disease etc etc lmao
The box is a prison, in engineering there simply is no box - only something better if you think outside that prison, if there was not, we would all still drive a model T Ford.
And motorbikes would still look like a glorified cycle.
Penny farthing anyone or mountain bike.
The problem with "modern schooling" is you cannot challenge what you are told, I did at school and got detention for it every time I did it.
My RE teacher in particular detested me for giving alternative notions/ideas with regards to the bible and the "stories" in it.
I got detention when he stated the feeding of the 5000 text, I said when alleged Jesus was willing to share his food, his alleged followers felt guilty and shared theirs, bam there you go, 1 week in detention.
Yeah, I don't recall that either. maybe the virus started in secondary modern schools and then spread as they invaded grammar schools. Also, one could be lucky - I recall some good teachers who just stayed and tolerated the "new regime" and left as soon as they could. I am less than impressed with the current cohort of "new teachers" - most don't seem to know anything about their subjects coz they just have a lame BEd. If I was a head, I'd never employ anyone without some degree related to their subject.
I was merciless to one teacher for not knowing that the answers "at the back of the book" were wrong! One of the answers was mathematically impossible! Should have rattled some neurons, assuming he knew the subject. Then he tells he's been teaching maths for six years - I was speechless.
Lots of tales of the disasters of "modern" education, eh!
I think this is the original video.
Yeah, but this video was based on a "thought piece" that is now being kinda retracted. The "I didn't really mean it" gambit of the psychopathocrats.
A bit like simulating the scamdemic and then having to add a disclaimer whereby any similarities are purely accidental.
Haha! the words nail and head spring to mind - I like your style. :) Stake holder capitalism and communism = communitarianism.
hence I like that Lobaczewski uses "new" words such as ponerology and pathocracy - to get away from all the confusion of political -isms, that with a pathological mindset all become forms of tyranny.
Mussolini famously defined fascism as corporatism - that should suffice in pointing out how similar these labels all are - in the wrong hands.
The creeping infiltration, polarisation, and weaponisation of terminology is certainly something I've been keeping an eye on. Concurrent to the fact that people are as much controlled in their knee jerk emotional rejections as they are with their unquestioning acceptance. There are also many words and conversations that now carry such a weight and burden of predetermined (externally cultivated) opinion and controversy - that they're being quite literally walled off. Certainly, the Overton window is shrinking like never before.
this also happened under the Tzar, then the Bolshies flipped from being targets of censorship to being the new tyrants - same in Nazi Germany. Great book by Klemperer: Language of the Third Reich: LTI: Lingua Tertii Imperii .
This time it's global.
Thanks for the recommendation - as an avid reader, I'll be sure to seek it out :)
Couldn't agree more - people either face this (and by virtue all their fears) now, or beg on their knees at a later date. 5G beamed from above, and an eye in the sky that promises high resolution real-time surveillance over every inch of our planet - points to the fact that there will be few places to hide.
I had a stark warning here - they will hunt you in the mountains... and find you.
You will eat less meat but occasionally we shall give you a treat, suck my balls Klaus.
