This happened at my high school and the wood shop teacher was fired for not intervening. My friend in white committed suicide about a year after this video. He had some developmental disabilities but he was always the happiest person in every room.

You're a fuckwit.

Pointing out the problems in something when the discussion of it's continued existence doesn't mean you advocate for it to go away completely.

There are problems. The current education system perpetuates them. Not funding a broken system is generally speaking a good idea.

"Wahhh someone said my wife's working in a worthless industry!" well spoiler alert, your wife works in a worthless industry. And if she cares about it, she'd agree that the current high school system going away wouldn't be a bad thing so long as it's place is taken up by something actually trying to help kids learn, develop and live in the real world. None of which the current one does.

"Never mind the cops are shooting people and committing terrorist acts, if we don't fund them then only the rich will be able to pay for their safety and everyone else will go back to living in fear!" Same logic. Same answer. Too bad, the system we have now doesn't deserve the funding it gets, if it wont fix itself them it's not my job to perpetuate it's worthless, destructive influence.

Fucks sake, how that became "let's get rid of all schools, forever, only the rich are allowed to be educated!" I have no idea, do you actually listen to what other people say or do you use that time to prepare whatever it is you wanted to argue today, regardless of how relevant it is to the topic at hand.
