The education system has turned into the equivalent of those kindergarten karate classes where if you show up and do the fake moves and pay the money; they give you an ever increasing number of belts (degrees).
For whatever reason, women will go into debt or be allowed to go into debt to get useless degrees and there is no countervailing force to say: “uh marine biology is cool but…$500,000?”
This has lead to a situation where women have gotten 13 million more colleges degrees than men over the last few decades.
Male teachers who are not retirees have been removed from the teaching pool. Why? Schools do not pay enough to build a career or family. You cannot afford to have male teachers who are not retired and doing it for fun.
Very; very worried. I feel they are being set up to fail by society.
First, the education system has been designed to discriminate against independence and curiosity, personal initiative. These were my traits in school and they were used against me.
Second, I know many professional women. With college degrees. They have literally been taught to despise men. Not a joke. They literally hate them. It’s all caused by our media and politicians.
Third, I interpret most of the “faux diversity” efforts by Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon, higher education as being primarily designed to create a pipeline from India and China directly to America that allows all of the above to systematically exploit and underpay people from the emerging world whose education is much cheaper. If you haven’t been paying attention, half of Silicon Valley’s ceos are now from India. Something more is going on there than “Zomg can’t find talent.” It’s systematic.
I believe our countries institutions are collaborating to avoid paying specifically white males a living wage while pretending there is a talent shortage and diversity problem.
Add it all together: It is bleak and outcomes are awful.
“Hey, society and the media and politicians, institutions have all decided your nature is a problem and that you are assumed guilty, to be viewed with suspicion at all times. Oh and for some reason, you should still want to support this structure with your hard work and taxes, and shut up and never mention it.”
Honestly - I don’t know why I would tell him he should accept this society, why he shouldn’t move to another country and why he should stick around. It isn’t showing any signs of changing.
It sickens me, I don’t believe in my own country anymore.
