H.L. Mencken On Education's

True Objectives

2-24-2

 

"That erroneous assumption is to the effect that the aim of public education is to fill the young of the species with knowledge and awaken their intelligence, and so make them fit to discharge the duties of citizenship in an enlightened and independent manner. Nothing could be further from the truth.

 

"The aim of public education is not to spread enlightenment at all, it is simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality. That is its aim in the United States, whatever the pretensions of politicians, pedagogues and other such mountebanks, and that is its aim everywhere else."

 

โ€“H L. Mencken

I remember back in the 1980s when I interviewed for an office job and was told that I would need to get "a physical" and was given an address and an appointment. I was curious why an office worker would need to get a "physical." It turned out to be an excuse to administer a drug test. I thought, what the fuck? Why? People have been employed for thousands of years without ever having to submit their piss in a bottle to prove they aren't using drugs. And especially a job sitting at a desk doing paperwork and answering a phone.

But now I understand that it was part of the process of taking away our physical rights to our own bodies.

We submitted ourselves to it and look where it got us. Being forced to take a poisonous jab to maintain a job to support a family.
