They did this to me in high school, in the UK while I was getting my GCSEs. I got pissed and started arguing with the teacher, in the end they just shut cause no one in the class. Not even the women, thought it was reasonable to force or push women into sciences if they didn't feel like it, and it was perfectly reasonable to hire people based on skill and not ethnicity or gender.
Teacher hated the fuck out of me tho, not surprisingly she was your usual 40 year old cat loving dyke that proved the attraction scale can include negative numbers.

This is called "character education" and I have done a bit of research into it and have some literature if you're interested. You can get toolkits for teachers for teaching kids about social justice. We should just teach kids reading, writing and arithmetic... we shouldn't be teaching kids what morals to have. There's one program in the toolkit I was looking at about teaching third graders about homelessness and instead of teaching charity they teach them the root causes. Which having the ability to think about root causes instead of exclusively film flam makes sense but their root cause is teaching children class warfare and having them write to their mayor about raising the minimum wage to 15 dollars an hour. Nothing about drugs or mental illness. I could talk about where this all came from but in short it's communism. Here's a link to some "change agent" toolkits and there's some link about STEMA and equality too. If we weren't teaching this to our children we would not have pic related

Economic meta analyses show no net change in employment from modest increases in minimum wage. Almost all min wage enployees produce far more value to the company than they cost, so it's still worth keeping them on even if you have to pay them more.

Is 4 dollars more modest? Wouldn't it also depend on the business? Like a local business with just one person working at a time would probably do okay... but a few thousand extra a month for a small business that has two or three working at once kind of sucks. What about a local large hotel that has 60 people working an 8 hour day every day? And then night shift workers which would be only a few people because no house keepers, food service, event managers etc. I agree that especially in cities everything floor level is low skill low wage, restaurants and shopping. And cities are expensive to live in. I don't really know a lot about this but it makes sense housing should be like anything else you buy where quality determines price usually. Some of the low income housing where I live is twice as nice for half the amount of my apartment. And some studios that are way shittier than my place are more money because they are closer to the city.

But yeah homelessness isn't because people aren't getting paid 15 dollars an hour. But we are teaching the kids it is. My mom's friend is a land lord for cheap housing and she has to kick people out because they trash the place and they're doing drugs, some of the clean up is so disgusting. Those people probably can't find housing again because they can't be trusted not to pull shit apart.

So hopefully you don't end up an autistic philistine. The point is not the content itself (which, assuming your example isn't made-up, is indeed awful) so much as the practice of dialogue and critical thinking, both of which are entirely absent in the pure abstraction of mathematics or monomaniacal practicality of engineering etc. Do notice critical thinking is not the same as criticism. Everyone is capable of the latter, but few engage in the former.

I hope this post contributed to you not becoming a philistine.

Its the whole college system unless you go private. The most pozzed marxist faggot teacher I had was a jew male dance teacher that would yell and shout at the girls over small shit. He was to sacred to yell at me even when i called the annoying sheboon a dumb dyke and talked very meekish to me when I argued. He gave me the impression that he claimed he was a feminist so he could get away with yelling at all girls but as soon as another male challenged him he would cower.

It was nice being one of the only males in the ballroom and the only White male so there was underhanded and verbal cat fights going on to be my partner from cute in shape girls. His marxist speeches got bad enough that the girls started asking what muh faggots and male privilege have to do with dancing.

It's character education to make people more accepting of communism. Communism is for the working class, poor, discriminated against and character education teaches you all these people are the victims of capitalism. It's class warfare. The guy who wrote the conclusions on character education, GS Counts, in 1931 paid for by the Carnegie corporation also had an editorial called social frontier where he talks all about how the communist revolution in the usa will be through the teachers. This shit is what our schools are today, there is literally no denying it's not SJW programming, anyone who denies it just hasn't read the literature. I linked a while up a .edu teaching toolkit that's all about teaching kids social justice. No 15 dollar an hour minimum wages being the reason for homelessness, tranny acceptance, white and male privilege.

The Carnegie Corporation "AMERICAN HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION
INVESTIGATION OF THE SOCIAL STUDIES IN THE SCHOOLS"

"Character education is an umbrella term loosely used to describe the teaching of children and adults in a manner that will help them develop variously as moral, civic, good, mannered, behaved, non-bullying, healthy, critical, successful, traditional, compliant or socially acceptable beings."

From the "Social Frontier"

"They [the teachers] must then influence their students, subtly if necessary, frankly if possible, ward acceptance of the same position."
"Second, implicit in Marx's theory is the call to teachers to analyze afresh the moral issues involved in opposition to capitalism. That disobedience of law is under certain conditions ethical is precisely the view of any labor sympathizer who ignores an injuction forbidding strike, pickets. Marx also admits that successful insurrection against the capitalist class is the highest moral act possible"
