@whowasthatmaskedman a poor one in many cases

@whowasthatmaskedman so what does that say about the republican ones 🤡

@MasterLee I am sure yours is far superior....... But they have enough to understand Game Theory and how that applies to the people...😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Good ole Game Theory

@DeluxedEdition Interesting. I see a large overlap between a genuine Liberal and a genuine Republican. In that area I dont see a problem.😷

@SW-User I can only imagine the number of people madly googling..😷

Still doesn’t answer my question 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡@whowasthatmaskedman

@DeluxedEdition Why would there be a difference between a Liberal teacher or a democrat or a Republican? They all want to educate kids. God knows they arent there for the money..😷
DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F
You are implying that the liberal teacher (you know the one who believes there are 64 genders) is smarter than Republicans in general. Which is why I asked what you thought about the republican teachers. 😀

@DeluxedEdition in fairness that isnt what he implied. He did however suggest that they are more savvy at navigating the system.

@DeluxedEdition And I still dont see your problem as long as both teachers want the best education for their students.😷
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@SW-User Exactly Ozy.. And that this Savvy gives them an understanding of the best way to get the best outcome in life for as many of the class as possible.😷

@whowasthatmaskedman @SW-User "Game theory" insists that all players behave in a genuine and earnest manner and believe in the best possible outcome for themselves as "players". I'm not sure that applies to the current propaganda efforts this user is asking about.

BUT! Great way to smugly imply your superiority here to a user asking a sincere question. 👍

@SumKindaMunster You dont know much about Game Theory do you?
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@SumKindaMunster Game theory is a much bigger field, but includes those factors you mentioned.. The section I was thinking of is used by the military in battle planning to achieve goals with a optimal use of limited resources. Educators are not in the business of picking winners and throwing the rest under a bus. They have to use their limited resources to get as many kids as far as possible. In the Trumpian Republican view and business model there is a winner and the rest are losers. Luckily genuine Republicans understand real business and the need to grow the pie and share some of it with those who helped them achieve.
As for my "superiority" implied or otherwise. I have worked hard and I have been lucky. Much of my luck has been others, as it is with many people. And I count educators among them.😷

@SW-User Is there some sort of test you would like me to take on this?

My comment isn't about the depth of one's knowledge of Game Theory, it's about your smug, condescending attitude in bringing it up, and implying that only you understand this theory, and everyone else is ignorant.
SW-User
@SumKindaMunster i didn’t bring it up. I merely understood the reference.

So we are all allowed to only speak about things you know about to save your ego from being hurt.

You feeling insecure and belittled because you don’t know something is your problem not mine, sorry.
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@whowasthatmaskedman Thanks for the relevant reply. Not everyone could be bothered. 🙄

I was thinking of it the same way. Using limited resources to determine the best outcome. However, as I said, I am not sure that applies here, as I believe this is an overriding propaganda campaign to get people to think this way. I don't believe it is a benevolent situation where educators are doing the best they can with limited resources. I believe it is a purity test and those that don't pass get pushed out or sanctioned for wrong thinking.

@SumKindaMunster My, arent we a sensitive little petal today.😷
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@SumKindaMunster I am sure that some states and local areas have policy platforms they push. And we all have that issue in life.. I know a few US teachers, ans if anything they have a tougher road to hoe than those in my country. But I think its a stretch believing they are actively indoctrinating kids.

@SW-User None of your response addresses my original point in confronting you. It's not about me, it's about your condescending and superior attitude to the original poster asking a sincere question.

You can say whatever you want, but you risk having someone respond in a way that you don't appreciate. You imply that your knowledge of game theory is superior with your condescending comments. But then you get offended when confronted on it???

You feeling insecure and belittled because you don’t know something is your problem not mine, sorry.

🤣Projection is a powerful psychological phenomenon isn't it? 🤣
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@whowasthatmaskedman Am I? How so?

It would seem someone else is getting very testy for being confronted about his statements. In reviewing this thread, it doesn't appear to be me. 🤷‍♂️
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@whowasthatmaskedman Well, we disagree on that point. That's ok, I listen to what other people say, even if I choose not to agree with it.
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@SumKindaMunster And that is what constitues an exchange of views..😷
SW-User
@SumKindaMunster This has clearly upset you. If @DeluxedEdition felt offended by anything I said i am pretty sure she would have told me herself. Going off previous interactions she is intelligent and articulate and therefore doesnt need you to tell people off on her behalf.

So Sir White Knight turn thy trusty steed around and charge off into the sunset 😂
