After reading this piece I have only one thing to say

If you allow the government to break the law because of an "EMERGENCY" "THEY" will always create an "Emergency" to break the law !

Institutionalized teaching lacks creativity or opposing views on any subject. When teachers are cramming curriculum down throats for a paycheque in oversized classrooms there is no room to maneuver critically. Time constraints do not allow for theoretical discourse. That opportunity to evidence probability comes within your thesis if you can spark another's interest with words. AI will mark you a genius when you have successfully regurgitated every word in curriculum's text. Humans need passion & emotion to sway ingrained thought patterns and beliefs. Focusing on perceived weaknesses in yourself blocks creative action to bypass biases we all face in life. Instead of adapting to the situation we seek to change it, and not ourselves. Ultimately you make all choices in your life. When encountering a blockage go around it, seek another path. Blaming the system or others for your choices creates more blockages and animosity from those whom have followed religiously, the program. Right words, right thoughts, right actions.

Extremely detailed , well constructed .... my message is simple - you have witnesses their MO -

Like many , we who have seen it up close , ( in disbelief ), know what they are capable of.

Simply resist , never ever comply .... if it looks like it’s extreme & over reach - it usually is.

LUC, WELCOME TO THE SCHOOL OF LIFE & REAL KNOWLEDGE

Culturally, we are many & although over-paid, institutionally, they are few.

'EDUCATION' (Latin 'educare' = 'to-lead-forth-from-within').

Its too bad these fake 'woke' have no idea what their fake 'Diversity, Equity & Inclusion' DEI really mean in everyday human relations, certainly not their belief in domination & submission.

Those who have read Plato's 'Republic', know how Socrates, ~2450 years ago, founded Academia, in the Athens garden of Academus based 'education' on formal 'Both-sided, Equal-time, Witnessed & Published 'Debate' (French 'de' = 'undo' + 'bate' = 'the-fight') as a right & obligation for Students, Professors & Townspeople. Considering each person's gift of knowledge as unique, Socrates knew true knowledge is found in the 'Process' of learning rather than the complementary & constantly changing context of 'Content'. This 'Medium is the message' approach is the same as Canada's Marshall McLuhan outlined in the 1970s. Aspasia of Miletus, was rhetorical teacher to Socrates, training him in the art of debate.

Socrates, as a former Greek soldier involved in foreign campaigns, renounced Athens colonial war-making. Socrates founded Academia as a healthy alternative to the institutionalized Sophist subservient war-making schools prominent at the time. One can safely say with few exceptions, that 'Academia has not existed since Socrates was executed by the state'. Most everything so-called since, is merely an empty shingle hung on the side of an expensive building.

Worldwide we can understand real 'Education' from all humanity's many 10s of 1000s of years of peaceful 'indigenous' (Latin 'self-generating') ancestry, once in every indigenous nation on every continent & island of the world as stemming from:

1) The 'Vision-Quest' by each person, starting in their adolescence focused on supporting each youth to find her or his inner most prized gift to community most often lifelong in pursuit & realization. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/d-paricipatory-structure/8-vision-quest-education

2) Mentored Apprenticeship opportunities provided by elders & other established professionals of all kinds in each & every field of community service. Complementary elder expertise, matched with youthful inquiry & innovation. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/d-participatory-structure/4-apprenticeship-education

Our inappropriately centralized, top-down, institutionally-controlled false education & false academia is truly 'Sophistry' at its worst. Any knowledge bearer worth her or his 'salt' (French 'sel' = origin of 'salary') must be ready at any time to engage in Both-sided, Equal-time, Recorded & Published Dialogues. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/d-participatory-structure/1-both-sides-now-equal-time-recorded-dialogues

Because human mind basically forms its knowledge systems or 'worldview' through Contrasting & Comparing different perspectives, facts, figures, emotions etc., we are attracted to 'Dialectics' ('Both-sided-inquiry) presentation. Example: The human eyes each see different 2-D images. It is through joining these diverse images in the Neural Cortex that a 3-D Construct of the world is created. Similarly the ears, nose & kinetic movement of the arms & legs rely upon balanced collaboration between the two sides. Both 'medicine' & 'media' share the same word root 'medium' meaning 'middle', implying the balance achieved from expressing & revealing both-sides integrated.

ECONOMIC MEMORY with 'community' (L. 'com' = 'together' + 'munus' = 'gift-or-service') autonomy. Human body's genes, cells, tissue & organs are Autonomous in inter-dependent neural intelligence, the responsibility to act each in its specialized function. The human brain acts as only one of several body, Nexus of communication, to integrate multiple whole body accommodation after the fact. The stomach for example contains more Neurons than the brain. Humanity's indigenous worldwide economic & political system was designed for this same local, decentralized, distributed intelligence joined at various levels from the individual, family, extended-family, Multihome, Village, City, Region, Nation, Confederacy, Continental & Hemispheric councils. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/d-participatory-structure/3-economic-memory
