Do you think Truman’s decision to nuke Japan was justified? Why or why not? Curious to know how others see this.

This is exactly why I post in these spaces—so I can learn just as much as I speak. I hadn’t heard of Pedagogy of the Oppressed before, but I just looked it up and I’m floored. That idea—that liberation must come from the oppressed themselves, and that internalized oppression must be rejected—is everything I believe about education, revolution, and reclaiming power.

Praxis as reflection and action… that hit me hard. I’m definitely going to dive deeper into Freire now. Thank you for sharing that knowledge with me.

I wrote this because the crumbling education system is something deeply personal to me. It’s not just broken—it’s familiar.

Has anyone else ever felt like you had to unlearn and reteach yourself just to actually understand the world?

Because when a system fails us that hard, we’re forced to become our own teachers. And that’s where resistance begins.

This one hit different when I wrote it.

I wasn’t trying to be polished—I just needed to get the fire out of me before it ate everything.

Anyone else ever write something down just to survive a moment?
