Cancel culture and NPC mentality are driven by programming from mainstream media and the education system, leading to the erosion of independent thought and the stifling of dissenting opinions.
The education system focuses on data entry and discourages critical thinking, resulting in a lack of curiosity and questioning, which has been deepened with the rise of cancel culture and the normalization of left-wing ideologies.
Traditional homeschooling, world schooling, and focusing on the classics can provide a healthier education that emphasizes character development and fosters critical thinking, challenging the prevailing narrative promoted in schools.
Deep dives
The Danger of Cancel Culture and NPC Mentality
Cancel culture and NPC (non-playable character) mentality are prevalent in society and are driven by programming from mainstream media and the education system. Cancel culture involves targeting and shaming individuals who do not conform to the prevailing narrative. NPCs are individuals who parrot pre-programmed responses without critical thinking. These terms represent the erosion of independent thought and the stifling of dissenting opinions.
The Impact of Schooling on Socialization and Critical Thinking
Schooling has led to the misconception that children learn socialization from other children, while in reality, children learn better social skills from interacting with adults. The education system focuses on data entry and discourages critical thinking, leading to a lack of curiosity and questioning. This indoctrination has deepened with the rise of cancel culture, as people are programmed to conform and trust experts without debate or critical analysis.
The Dangers of Ideological Indoctrination in Schools
The education system has been infiltrated by ideologues who push a specific narrative, resulting in the normalization of left-wing ideologies. Indoctrination promotes a lack of individualism and the suppression of dissenting opinions. The control exerted by teachers' unions and the media has allowed for the programming of individuals who parrot specific lines without questioning or critically analyzing the information they receive.
The Need to Protect Children from Harmful Ideologies
Parents have a crucial role in protecting their children from harmful ideologies promoted in schools. Traditional homeschooling, world schooling, and focusing on the classics can facilitate a healthier education that emphasizes character development rather than mere data entry. It is essential to break away from the system and embrace the critical thinking and independent thought needed to challenge the prevailing narrative.
Understanding Fascism, The Power of Experts, and the Importance of Freedom
Fascism is incorrectly associated with right-wing ideologies when, in fact, it is a left-wing ideology that imposes control over individual freedoms. The rise of cancel culture and the unquestioning trust in experts demonstrate a shift towards collectivism and the erosion of individual liberties. Challenging the system and fostering a sense of freedom in education is crucial for safeguarding personal autonomy and critical thinking.
