    Nothing will change until the USA reforms the education system from the ground up, and even then it’ll take a couple of generations at least. The owner class will resist that every step of the way.

      Starting with the primary objective of American education being Critical Thinking Skills. It is how we properly think, and it takes training and practice, but it prepares us for literally everything in life, as well as giving us the intellectual tools to resist propaganda, which is the primary reason MAGAs want to literally ban the teaching Critical Thinking Skills. They claim it teaches young people to question authority figures, which it does.

      They literally want to make stupidity an actual objective of the curriculum, to educate people to be more gullible and manipulable.
