Education is failing us because we’ve turned it into a farce.
We tell kids to make their own choices, to “follow their hearts,” as if they’re capable of that before they’ve learned a damn thing.
Before they’ve been exposed to virtue, to morality, to the principles that make a society function.
It is absolutely absurd. And this, right here, is why we’re drowning in this mess of collapsing values.
We have forgotten that values aren’t some whimsical, subjective whim—they’ve existed for thousands of years for a reason. They’re rooted in hard-earned experience, in what works for human flourishing.
They’re objective in their foundation, even if they’re not scientifically measurable.
Look at education.
Does a child understand the value of the alphabet before they’ve learned it?
Of course not.
They do not see the purpose of numbers, of mathematics, of books, until they’ve been taught.
They don’t understand the why.
But we teach them anyway because they need it, because it’s foundational. That is the point. You don’t give them a choice about whether or not they want to learn it—you give them the tools, the knowledge, and the understanding first. Only then can they make choices worth a damn.
We’ve lost that.
We have handed over the reins to children, to people who don’t even know what the reins are for.
We have abandoned the responsibility of teaching virtue, morality, and discipline. And look where it’s gotten us. We need to get back to the basics—teaching what matters, even if they don’t see it yet. Because education isn’t about making kids feel good about their choices—it’s about giving them the tools to make the right ones.
Value isn’t completely subjective—far from it.
There are principles that make society work, things that hold it together or tear it apart.
Sure, I admit, you can argue that values are a matter of personal preference, but let’s be real—if you’re taking a position that embraces chaos and disorder, at least have the guts to be honest about it.
Own it.
Say, “Yeah, I want the world to burn.” But most people don’t. They won’t admit that.
Instead, they hypocritically spout values they don’t actually agree with, pretending to be something they’re not.
Here’s the thing: values aren’t just a collection of subjective whims.
Values are based on what allows people to coexist, to build, to thrive. You can’t just shrug and say, “Anything goes,” because it doesn’t. Society doesn’t function in a vacuum.
Groups of people need order, structure, and principles that work. And those principles aren’t arbitrary. They’re rooted in reality—what works, what doesn’t.
So when someone claims it’s all subjective, that there’s no foundation for values, you’ve got to call bullshit.
Because these pissant twats are not living in chaos, are they?
They are reaping the benefits of a system built on order, stability, and rules. If they really believed in chaos, they wouldn’t be here arguing—they’d be out there tearing it all down. But they’re not.
They’re hypocrites, pretending their relativism is some kind of intellectual high ground. It’s not.
It is just cowardice dressed up as philosophy.
