I Admire Common Sense

There seems a conspiracy a foot to undermine individual effort and sensibility across Europe that very much undoes centuries of lateral thought capability and denies the Young the basic common sense.

Education systems are making students dependent, not individuals, they are signed up to demeaning patterns of behaviour which literally rob them of the capacity to think outside of the box formed to hamper them gaining any common sense.

Social engineering is encountered of an Orwellian nature which snuffs out individualism, or the ability to question what is happening around them outside of the two polarities of conservatism and socialism.

What Révolution do we need to encounter?
Abstraction · 61-69, M
The pedagogy of the oppressed, Paulo Freire.

“Leaders who do not act dialogically, but insist on imposing their decisions, do not organize the people--they manipulate them. They do not liberate, nor are they liberated: they oppress.”

Amazing book.

“Education either functions as an instrument which is used to facilitate integration of the younger generation into the logic of the present system and bring about conformity or it becomes the practice of freedom, the means by which men and women deal critically and creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation of their world.”
