Thanks for the reminder – so often we do not see each other as part of one big family, brothers and sisters in Christ, or as my dad used to say, “I’ve got mine, you get yours” is a common attitude used to justify not helping anyone else…or as he also used to say, “Hooray for me and the hell with you!”
I agree wholeheartedly, but I have just one question: How to respond to those who say that school makes you stupider and that you become smart despite school, not thanks to school? That nobody ever learned anything in school, so public schooling is a bad idea?
The demographic of right wing rabble rousers and dropouts who tell their audience of ignorant and gullible suckers that “nobody ever learned anything in school” have nothing but demagoguery to back up that moronic statement. What is gratuitously asserted can be gratuitously denied. My reply is, “Prove it, liar.”
