Can you get education through life experience too? Thats kind of what I was getting at. Wisdom and experience are NOT part of any college study. I think you’re over generalizing and stereotyping non-college grads as if they are lesser people than those who did go to college. No way they could possibly think for themselves or see whats actually going on out there without some college professor leading them by hand. C’mon. I only disparage higher education because of what it has become, not the idea behind it. You dont think safe spaces, feelings mattering more than facts, ragging on capitalism, etc. which are all big things at colleges are preparing kids for the real world? Oh and these warm-hearted colleges dont mind sticking these kids with $200K in loans for their degree in Dandelion Botany. Classy move. Talk about “manipulation”. Damned right.

There are a ton of super successful, happy people whom are very intelligent that didnt step foot in any University. Sorry they didnt follow your prescribed path.

For the 800th time: Religion does not belong in public schools and it isnt any longer.

Excellent comeback there.

How did we get on colon cancer? LOL. How does a heavily progressive eh hem “education” which is infused big time with propaganda make someone better at being a politician? I didnt say replace doctors with landscape guys. C’mon. I simply stated that alls you people want is more social studies majors running the country and quite a few of us do not. Dont make statements that are false.

What facts? Oh…here it comes: Global Cool-changing-warming-thing? Socialistic monetary policies? Anti-personal liberties? facts, eh? Sure.

No, you tell me. Educated can mean a lot of things. To YOU and your buddies it means the standard path through some progressive institution which has produced a large population of weak, victim-driven babies that need crayons and safe spaces. Look up the brilliant Jordan Peterson and he’ll lay it out for you how badly the higher education system has failed kids. Warning: He uses facts and doesnt care about your touchy-feely crap.

Actually, there are numerous trades and other careers where you dont go to college and do very well. But please keep voting for people with degrees in History because thats working out awesomely.

So - as I expected: Must be “educated” at a specific university that only caters to the aggressive left. Sorry but our Govt. is loaded with many such folks and they suck at what they do.

And, nicely done too on the derogatory comments towards business owners. Another typical play of the whiny, “victim-riddled” left. Of course, never mind that without business owners no one has a job and there is no economy. "Stepped on everyone’s heads’. Yeah, great. Did you sign up for the wrong Lemmy? There is a communist/socialist version where you can go play.

Book burning? Got a link for that? Oh, you mean limiting or restricting access to very inappropriate material for underage kids? Because, you know, protecting kids is also bad policy. Sure, Jan.

Anything else? LOL.

Define real education. Does that mean education attained at some overpriced, heavily left-leaning university with a degree in some social field? Can that mean someone that’s educated in say a trade or other type of job skill? What about a successful business owner? Maybe they’d make a good leader, right?

The problem with this guys comments is that we know what he really means: “Educated” as in someone that went to specific colleges and has fallen for the progressive sales pitch. You know and I know that’s exactly what he means.

Is there unbiased data that says the fires were started due to climate change? Either way, time for Canada to out these fires out. Like get a hose and some water.
