That assumes that 1) "They" know what education you need for that, which may or may not be the case, and 2) that they don't have some other reason to need you to have that education, such as a job that they need to be done that by nature requires such knowledge.

And if you follow the logic of the written caption, those who have overthrown others, often purge those who may have the education to overthrow them. They also then do the exact same thing Linus says to ~~Marcie~~ Lydia.

Revolutionaries historically have killed and abused the most educated among them. This is doubly true with communist and religious revolutions, which are the most common revolutions of the past 200 years.

Is that why so many conservatives have been home schooling?

Public schools generally suck, and not just because some disagree with the curriculum

[–] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why not? They'd kill you for $5

[–] SCB@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why would a billionaire inconvenience themselves for meaningless amount of money?

Billionaires don't hate you. They don't think about you at all.

[–] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

They'd enact a policy change that would result in people dying just to make an extra $5 per year

True enough. Question authority.

Never been to a military academy.

Fair enough, neither have I.

I remember a thing from Finland. We have conscription. I remember that it was rumored during the 70's or something that communists told people to go do their conscription and to try to achieve NCO and officer ranks as a preparatory school of sorts for revolution. Not sure if it was always just wild anti-communist rumours but the myth has lived on.

[–] FidiFadi@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Would not be surprised. Revolutionary education had always been part of more left-wing radical movements in the country. They didn't call Työväen akatemia that without a reason when it started.
