I know you're trying to undermine all lives matter here but....

3000 lives died that day and after all, all lives matter. These put the deaths of these buildings above the deaths of other buildings

Give it a try

Hell. Where they should be

At least the greedy business men have a business to run. The politicians just get bailed out and spend it on luxury cars

I dont use tiktok, I hate the app

Sandwich cut in half

Upvoted because tintin

My main problem is that most of the memes aren't even funny.

Make memes that are funny and then we can talk

I trust those people even less

Just make sure to install amd-ucode

I'm south african. My government has the means of production for electricity seized (they own Eskom which has a monopoly.) It is well known that while the regular person has to deal with load shedding, the government officials do not

Add the issues with South African Airways and I would not like all the means of production to be owned by the government

rationalwiki

I'd rather have no source than that source

I hope you're not in any role where you can decide these things, because I think your opinions around this seem very harmful to both individuals and society.

Ignoring what we're fighting about, just think of what you said there. You are saying (correct me if I'm wrong) that we should just not allow people with opinions that contradict you to not have any power

Sorry if I came off rude or I'm putting words in your mouth but stuff like that is not ideas I take lightly. I think it's a threat to democracy

EDIT: I also hate stuff like this that directly attacks the person with the ideas. I have noticed that the replies to you became a lot ruder after you said that (probably it rubbed off.) I thing it is important to be calm in a discussion

Back to the topic

You're comparing a TED Talk that you chose to watch to school curriculum.

Teachers regularly put informational videos (including TED talks) on in the classroom. It never becomes less interesting because it's forced upon me - if anything their a nice change of pace

Those mistakes are from being not restrictive enough

Can you please elaborate. What "mistakes" did you make and what do you do now (also please elaborate on the "mistakes" society made)

Also please elaborate on the "effect"

I find a lot of knowledge interesting. Being interesting involves knowledge

in order to make students listen and remember, you need to make them interested.

You said it better than I could

Did you hear what I said about dopamine being the "joy hormone" and used as a "reward". Your body gives out happy hormones like this after an exercise and other good stuff for you (including school work if it is interesting)

And don't you tell me that knowledge isn't interesting. For something to be interesting (by my definition) it must give you knowledge.

Girls twerking on TikTok is not interesting - the way Hitler died is

Memes are not interesting (unless they contain important info)

These may produce dopamine in other ways but they are not interesting

Which means that phones and computers can fuck right off.

I could be considered "tech savvy", I know a bit of C/PHP and a lot of shell script. Explain ro me how I could learn that without a computer (I'm also self-taught)

So they need to make everything else less interesting.

As I said, sleep is something that pupils prefer to schoolwork. Get schoolwork above a bar that low and then we can talk. Amyway, it just needs to be interesting enough that students won't feel a need to check social media

The annoying children were quarantined on reddit?

Anyway, I'm not leaving this place without a fight

I will learn the curriculum when the curriculum stops being wrong and occasionally straight up propaganda

It's not the job of the the school staff to make the material extremely interesting, it's their job to remove every more interesting thing from the reach of students.

And this is how we reached the point where sleep is more common in a classroom than anything else. They should make the material interesting enough that people won't have to resort to other stuff

Read up on dopamine if you didn't understand that.

I know what dopamine (the joy hormone which the body uses as a "reward") is. Since the body uses it as a "reward" if school gives students that, then students will like school
