"The K-12 education system, more so the 6-12 portion has become so distracted with bathroom policies,”sexual harassment” and drug control systems that they have literally drifted away from providing education. However, people see nothing wrong with this, they have become complacent to the ideology that if a child goes to school, gets to take Honors or AP courses and gets good grades the child is smart and that smartness is due to his complacency with the insane hierarchy of schooling. Once they see those few students like that then they start to think that all students should be just as complacent and well performing because something that was developed 200 years ago works “just fine” and the idea that things are not fine is just some conspiracy theory that has been shoved down our throats."
