Well said and I fully agree.

Where once sanity ruled. Chilling.....

To be fair, in relative terms... Now I have to wear a mask at office if I move from my desk to another place.

they need it to be true nonetheless to validate their real world experiences

The funny thing is... they have no real world experiences. They lived their entire lives as cattle in cities, went trough government education most of their lives and entered higher education, which is also dominated by government, where they live in a privileged bubble, thinking they are the intellectual elite of society by mere association.

They are not validating real world experiences, they are getting their ideological perceptions validated, which were imposed upon them over their entire lifetime. They live in abstractions over abstractions over abstractions - they are deprived from reality as much as a human can possibly be while still being able to sustain themselves financially. They have no connection to working class people besides - maybe - their parents.

Exactly. The education system only serves to deepen this disconnect. Thank goodness I only entered post-secondary when I got older and wiser. I reckon I could have turned out for the worse had that not been the case. The brainwashing in these institutions is strong, man. Frightening. But yeah, man. Not looking so hot here in Canada, either. Good luck over there. I hope it's not too late for either ofus.
