Campus "Demonstrations" Are A Con Game...

Just had to share a recent post I made on a YouTube channel bemoaning campus demonstrations...

With all due respect, YOU have missed the point, or more precisely you missed the deep game being played here. The fact is Colleges and Universities are anachronisms in an era when information is available for one and all; quickly, easily, multi-lingually, and publicly rated for validity; and more importantly it is FREE and not limited by arrogant gate-keeping institutionalist creeps.

In many ways the whole school/college bunk is similar to the voting bunk -- it is to create the illusion that the item in question has some legitimate intrinsic value. Voting is so corrupt and controlled your vote is not only meaningless; if somehow the public voted "wrong" on an issue the ruling elite already have their damage control systems in place -- media shame; recounts; new elections, and, of course that good old stand-by fail-safe: it is overruled by their pet judges in their pet courts.

Campuses are just so much expensive, useless junk -- like the masts the government used to require on steamships for generations long after they were no longer needed. They are the 5th wheel on the carriage of progress.
While it IS popular to call out students who do not know the difference between Texas and Iraq on a map; the fact is, the average 12 year old today, just through the osmosis of the Internet has a greater general knowledge of the the practical world than even PhD's of a generation ago.

Bottom line; let the campuses burn; and the idiots who want to go there institutionalize themselves -- and, while they are doing it; the rest of us will get on with life and leave them even farther behind. Their funny little credentials and titles actually have NO more meaning than being called an eagle scout or altar boy or president of the local Kiwanis. Interesting; but, frankly, NO real practical value.

The vaunted "halls of ivy" are just so many irrelevant ruined old walls overgrown with weeds in today's world...

Just sayin'
