factors as impactful on 35 00:01:54,230 --> 00:01:51,560 a society as its education system 36 00:01:56,060 --> 00:01:54,240 because it's our access to knowledge and 37 00:01:57,770 --> 00:01:56,070 how we think about thinking that 38 00:01:59,810 --> 00:01:57,780 determines whether or not we'll drink 39 00:02:00,830 --> 00:01:59,820 the system's kool-aid or get caught in 40 00:02:03,469 --> 00:02:00,840 its many traps 41 00:02:05,510 --> 00:02:03,479 it's our discernment reasoning and logic 42 00:02:07,550 --> 00:02:05,520 that either lets us know to read between 43 00:02:09,650 --> 00:02:07,560 the lines of our corrupt system or the 44 00:02:12,170 --> 00:02:09,660 lack of these skills it has one waiting 45 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:12,180 in line to cast a vote for Joe Biden 46 00:02:15,740 --> 00:02:13,890 it's even this foundation that 47 00:02:17,869 --> 00:02:15,750 determines if we ever really find our 48 00:02:19,849 --> 00:02:17,879 true will or if we get caught up in a 49 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:19,859 meaningless cog in the wheel job for the 50 00:02:23,979 --> 00:02:21,810 mega corporations that would rather suck 51 00:02:27,140 --> 00:02:23,989 out your

00:02:46,339 --> 00:02:43,709 thought it couldn't get any worse you 61 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:46,349 are wrong because what John's new book 62 00:02:50,210 --> 00:02:48,450 school world order the

00:03:50,869 --> 00:03:48,629 for having me man that was a great 89 00:03:53,300 --> 00:03:50,879 introduction thanks man 90 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:53,310 I try and I have been looking forward to 91 00:03:57,170 --> 00:03:55,650 this ever since Chris Milligan mentioned 92 00:03:59,240 --> 00:03:57,180 your book as one of the new releases 93 00:04:01,369 --> 00:03:59,250 from trying day when I talked to him 94 00:04:03,589 --> 00:04:01,379 last year now that I've read the book 95 00:04:05,780 --> 00:04:03,599 it's definitely impressive it's a pretty 96 00:04:08,149 --> 00:04:05,790 ironclad case for some scary 97 00:04:08,990 --> 00:04:08,159 applications of technology into the 98 00:04:11,030 --> 00:04:09,000 classroom 99 00:04:13,939 --> 00:04:11,040 everything is sourced and the endnotes 100 00:04:16,129 --> 00:04:13,949 are pretty much a book on their own and 101 00:04:18,499 --> 00:04:16,139 it seems like you've outlined the next 102 00:04:21,019 --> 00:04:18,509 phase of the agenda as well as anyone 103 00:04:23,029 --> 00:04:21,029 could I guess to kick this off tell us 104 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:23,039 about the creation of the book you're 105 00:04:25,780 --> 00:04:24,690 definitely in good company with some of 106 00:04:29,530 --> 00:04:25,790 the other trying day 107 00:04:31,450 --> 00:04:29,540 others that you source yeah yeah so well 108 00:04:33,100 --> 00:04:31,460 it kind of started off kind of 109 00:04:34,810 --> 00:04:33,110 haphazardly just kind of came about 110 00:04:37,390 --> 00:04:34,820 education was not necessarily something 111 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:37,400 that I planned on writing about because 112 00:04:41,020 --> 00:04:38,930 that's where I work I didn't want to you 113 00:04:42,310 --> 00:04:41,030 know necessarily poopoo where I sleep so 114 00:04:44,590 --> 00:04:42,320 to speak 115 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:44,600 but at the time when I wrote one of the 116 00:04:48,550 --> 00:04:46,250 first articles that became one of the 117 00:04:50,950 --> 00:04:48,560 first chapters of the book I'm in 118 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:50,960 Illinois and Governor Bruce rauner was 119 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:52,970 basically stalling on the budget and 120 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:55,730 what was happening was since he wasn't 121 00:04:59,380 --> 00:04:56,930 passing the budget we couldn't get 122 00:05:01,890 --> 00:04:59,390 funding for education and essentially 123 00:05:05,500 --> 00:05:01,900 what I saw was a scheme to bankrupt 124 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:05,510 public education and to thereby fill it 125 00:05:10,450 --> 00:05:08,210 up with privatized education and rauner 126 00:05:12,330 --> 00:05:10,460 himself is a big proponent of what they 127 00:05:14,350 --> 00:05:12,340 call school choice it's a euphemism for 128 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:14,360 corporatization of schooling through 129 00:05:18,280 --> 00:05:15,650 charter schools and other things like 130 00:05:21,280 --> 00:05:18,290 that will break down later he actually 131 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:21,290 owns his own charter school as well so 132 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:24,170 what I saw happening there made its way 133 00:05:27,550 --> 00:05:25,250 to my front door and one of my 134 00:05:29,350 --> 00:05:27,560 departments actually got shut down and 135 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:29,360 so you know I just started off kind of 136 00:05:33,550 --> 00:05:31,370 like well let me just write about this 137 00:05:37,030 --> 00:05:33,560 if you know maybe the education is going 138 00:05:38,890 --> 00:05:37,040 in this direction and I had plugged some 139 00:05:41,470 --> 00:05:38,900 of the research of Charlotte Thompson is 140 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:41,480 repeat in the article I had also noticed 141 00:05:46,570 --> 00:05:43,730 that Bruce rauner was big on a lot of 142 00:05:49,030 --> 00:05:46,580 buzz words the Charlotte warned about 143 00:05:50,740 --> 00:05:49,040 for many years so one of them was school 144 00:05:52,750 --> 00:05:50,750 choice and she said it's a euphemism for 145 00:05:55,300 --> 00:05:52,760 the corporatization of schooling through 146 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:55,310 charter schools vouchers education 147 00:05:59,830 --> 00:05:57,530 savings accounts tax credits for tuition 148 00:06:01,330 --> 00:05:59,840 and things like that the other one is he 149 00:06:03,130 --> 00:06:01,340 used the phrase called cradle-to-career 150 00:06:05,260 --> 00:06:03,140 which is a euphemism for workforce 151 00:06:07,840 --> 00:06:05,270 training it's to replace academics with 152 00:06:10,270 --> 00:06:07,850 workforce training and so I saw those 153 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:10,280 things kind of going down and you know I 154 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:12,650 saw the economic situation I kind of put 155 00:06:16,690 --> 00:06:14,410 it all together in this piece and 156 00:06:18,100 --> 00:06:16,700 Charlotte actually ended up writing me I 157 00:06:20,590 --> 00:06:18,110 guess she read it it was on news with 158 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:20,600 views and at first I'm looking at the 159 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:22,250 email and thinking like oh this has got 160 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:24,170 to be a virus or a scam this can't be 161 00:06:28,420 --> 00:06:26,690 her for whatever reason I couldn't find 162 00:06:30,070 --> 00:06:28,430 her email I wanted to send it to her and 163 00:06:31,450 --> 00:06:30,080 I couldn't find it I'm not that good at 164 00:06:33,670 --> 00:06:31,460 social media stuff I'm getting better 165 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:33,680 I'm learning and so she reached out to 166 00:06:38,170 --> 00:06:35,810 me and we just became friends ever since 167 00:06:39,620 --> 00:06:38,180 she helped me with you know encouraging 168 00:06:41,090 --> 00:06:39,630 me also just partnering 169 00:06:43,490 --> 00:06:41,100 he's sending me research all the time 170 00:06:44,840 --> 00:06:43,500 sending me articles all the time it was 171 00:06:46,280 --> 00:06:44,850 funny a lot of times we'd be like I'm 172 00:06:47,510 --> 00:06:46,290 working on something that I'd had 173 00:06:49,940 --> 00:06:47,520 mentioned and she would send me 174 00:06:52,460 --> 00:06:49,950 something that plugged right into it at 175 00:06:55,490 --> 00:06:52,470 the same time I was also reading Anthony 176 00:06:57,350 --> 00:06:55,500 Sutton's introduction to the order of 177 00:07:01,070 --> 00:06:57,360 Skull and Bones America's secret 178 00:07:04,100 --> 00:07:01,080 establishment and at the time I'd known 179 00:07:05,990 --> 00:07:04,110 that schoolin bones were influential in 180 00:07:07,850 --> 00:07:06,000 world war ii and things like that I 181 00:07:09,770 --> 00:07:07,860 didn't know that they were very 182 00:07:11,300 --> 00:07:09,780 influential in education actually the 183 00:07:13,100 --> 00:07:11,310 first chapter in that book is all about 184 00:07:17,180 --> 00:07:13,110 it's called how the Order controls 185 00:07:19,730 --> 00:07:17,190 education and I saw basically the 186 00:07:21,340 --> 00:07:19,740 implementation of hegelian ism at work 187 00:07:24,500 --> 00:07:21,350 in this problem reaction solution 188 00:07:26,150 --> 00:07:24,510 scenario okay so the skullenbones is one 189 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:26,160 of these organizations that basically 190 00:07:30,950 --> 00:07:28,770 promoted Hegelian ism in america the 191 00:07:32,900 --> 00:07:30,960 philosophy of the Galleon ism and one of 192 00:07:35,510 --> 00:07:32,910 those tenets of the Galleon ISM was 193 00:07:39,020 --> 00:07:35,520 basically that history progresses 194 00:07:41,090 --> 00:07:39,030 through ideas ideas that conflict okay 195 00:07:44,030 --> 00:07:41,100 you call one idea the main idea of the 196 00:07:47,030 --> 00:07:44,040 time is the thesis the opposing ideas 197 00:07:48,860 --> 00:07:47,040 usually are called the antithesis okay 198 00:07:50,870 --> 00:07:48,870 these two different opposing ideas they 199 00:07:53,540 --> 00:07:50,880 clash and then through this clash of 200 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:53,550 this conflict comes a synthesis right in 201 00:07:57,230 --> 00:07:55,290 the colloquial world we might know this 202 00:08:00,020 --> 00:07:57,240 as problem reaction solution so you 203 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:00,030 create the problem elicit a reaction and 204 00:08:04,070 --> 00:08:02,370 therefore you can bring in the solution 205 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:04,080 and this is kind of what I saw happening 206 00:08:09,970 --> 00:08:06,050 with the bankruptcy of public education 207 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:09,980 creating that crisis to basically offer 208 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:12,450 privatization as the solution so it fit 209 00:08:18,410 --> 00:08:15,690 right in and come to find out though as 210 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:18,420 I'm writing it actually the reason that 211 00:08:23,090 --> 00:08:20,970 Anthony Sutton actually even wrote that 212 00:08:25,580 --> 00:08:23,100 book or knew anything about the order of 213 00:08:27,860 --> 00:08:25,590 skullenbones is because he got that 214 00:08:29,930 --> 00:08:27,870 information from charlotte is ruby her 215 00:08:30,590 --> 00:08:29,940 father and her grandfather for both 216 00:08:35,450 --> 00:08:30,600 Bonesmen 217 00:08:38,630 --> 00:08:35,460 and she basically leaks it to sutton the 218 00:08:40,820 --> 00:08:38,640 black books and the black books are 219 00:08:42,500 --> 00:08:40,830 these address books at all Bonesmen get 220 00:08:43,969 --> 00:08:42,510 after they graduate so you should 221 00:08:46,670 --> 00:08:43,979 understand you know skullenbones is a 222 00:08:48,380 --> 00:08:46,680 senior Society which means that it's not 223 00:08:51,380 --> 00:08:48,390 a freshman Society meaning it's not 224 00:08:53,820 --> 00:08:51,390 meant to socialize or fraternize on 225 00:08:56,490 --> 00:08:53,830 campus during the years of your edge 226 00:08:58,740 --> 00:08:56,500 it's meant to socialize or create social 227 00:09:00,570 --> 00:08:58,750 relationships as you read college and 228 00:09:02,730 --> 00:09:00,580 those are relationships with a lot of 229 00:09:04,950 --> 00:09:02,740 old money families you got stuff like 230 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:04,960 the Vanderbilts the Whitney's the 231 00:09:08,700 --> 00:09:06,730 Cabot's and then you got all there was 232 00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:08,710 recognizable like Rockefeller but that's 233 00:09:12,060 --> 00:09:10,570 kind of more of a new money family but 234 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:12,070 these old money families and then later 235 00:09:16,769 --> 00:09:14,650 new money families through those address 236 00:09:18,630 --> 00:09:16,779 books they basically have a network to 237 00:09:20,370 --> 00:09:18,640 consolidate their businesses and things 238 00:09:21,780 --> 00:09:20,380 like that so when you get the address 239 00:09:24,420 --> 00:09:21,790 books it doesn't just have the people's 240 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:24,430 names it also has you know what is their 241 00:09:28,110 --> 00:09:26,650 profession and things like that so are 242 00:09:29,700 --> 00:09:28,120 you looking for a lawyer are you looking 243 00:09:32,579 --> 00:09:29,710 for a financier are you looking for 244 00:09:34,170 --> 00:09:32,589 somebody that's the mining industry okay 245 00:09:37,110 --> 00:09:34,180 and to make sure you network in the 246 00:09:40,140 --> 00:09:37,120 proper circles so she gave these books 247 00:09:44,130 --> 00:09:40,150 to Sutton and Sutton basically he had 248 00:09:46,560 --> 00:09:44,140 realized what he had a problem figuring 249 00:09:49,290 --> 00:09:46,570 out when he wrote some academic tomes 250 00:09:50,790 --> 00:09:49,300 called Western technology and Soviet 251 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:50,800 economic development the three-volume 252 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:53,050 series that he wrote was that Stanford 253 00:09:58,560 --> 00:09:56,170 the Hoover Institute and basically he 254 00:10:01,500 --> 00:09:58,570 was looking at how the West u.s. in 255 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:01,510 particular influenced the development 256 00:10:06,270 --> 00:10:03,130 the industrial and technological 257 00:10:08,010 --> 00:10:06,280 development of Russia during Bolshevik 258 00:10:09,930 --> 00:10:08,020 Revolution and then also during the Cold 259 00:10:11,340 --> 00:10:09,940 War and it never made sense to him 260 00:10:13,140 --> 00:10:11,350 because he figured right if we're at war 261 00:10:16,980 --> 00:10:13,150 with these people why are we helping 262 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:16,990 them and from his research basically it 263 00:10:20,010 --> 00:10:18,370 shows that you know they largely would 264 00:10:22,260 --> 00:10:20,020 have been able to build up without us so 265 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:22,270 he basically created the enemy and it 266 00:10:25,650 --> 00:10:24,130 never made sense to him until he picked 267 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:25,660 up and looked at those names in the 268 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:27,250 order of Skull and Bones because what he 269 00:10:32,460 --> 00:10:30,130 found was names that correlated with 270 00:10:34,829 --> 00:10:32,470 certain banks and other industries that 271 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:34,839 financed the Soviet Union so one of them 272 00:10:38,310 --> 00:10:36,610 would have been the Ruskin Bank and I 273 00:10:40,350 --> 00:10:38,320 think Guaranty Trust is one of them I 274 00:10:42,329 --> 00:10:40,360 know guarantee trust was involved in 275 00:10:45,210 --> 00:10:42,339 funding the Nazis it might have been 276 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:45,220 both I'd might be skewing that fact as I 277 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:47,650 said it's a tangled web it's a very 278 00:10:52,110 --> 00:10:50,050 tangled web the precise documentation is 279 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:52,120 in the book right it's about a almost 280 00:10:56,790 --> 00:10:54,850 500 page book it's 350 pages of reading 281 00:10:59,100 --> 00:10:56,800 the rest of it is citations those are 282 00:11:01,320 --> 00:10:59,110 the actual bibliography those are all 283 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:01,330 government sources journals 284 00:11:04,530 --> 00:11:02,890 you know mainstream news and you know 285 00:11:06,660 --> 00:11:04,540 things like that that's accepted as 286 00:11:09,420 --> 00:11:06,670 credible in mainstream you magazine 287 00:11:12,300 --> 00:11:09,430 but what Sutton found basically was that 288 00:11:14,190 --> 00:11:12,310 the order was this you could put it over 289 00:11:16,590 --> 00:11:14,200 all these weird things that shouldn't 290 00:11:18,030 --> 00:11:16,600 make sense in these seeming 291 00:11:20,910 --> 00:11:18,040 contradictions in the world of 292 00:11:22,290 --> 00:11:20,920 geopolitics but if you lay the order of 293 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:22,300 Skull and Bones over it where the 294 00:11:28,350 --> 00:11:24,490 philosophy of a galleon is a problem 295 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:28,360 reaction solution it all made sense I'm 296 00:11:32,820 --> 00:11:30,010 figuring all these connections as I'm 297 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:32,830 writing in as I'm coming in contact with 298 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:35,650 Charlotte the Chris Milligan my 299 00:11:39,420 --> 00:11:38,530 publisher at trying to I'm stumbled on 300 00:11:42,420 --> 00:11:39,430 anything would be with him on the 301 00:11:44,670 --> 00:11:42,430 Opperman report and he's the one that 302 00:11:47,340 --> 00:11:44,680 published Sutton's America's secret 303 00:11:49,590 --> 00:11:47,350 establishment Yury published it was 304 00:11:51,300 --> 00:11:49,600 published prior to that and there was 305 00:11:53,250 --> 00:11:51,310 all kinds of mercantile games and 306 00:11:55,290 --> 00:11:53,260 censorship that they kept it off of a 307 00:11:57,210 --> 00:11:55,300 lot of bookshelves and then it basically 308 00:12:00,210 --> 00:11:57,220 went on a friend and Chris was like we 309 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:00,220 have to save this and so they republish 310 00:12:04,980 --> 00:12:01,810 that and then him and Chris basically 311 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:04,990 became research partners and they wrote 312 00:12:10,620 --> 00:12:06,850 another book called fleshing out Skull 313 00:12:13,260 --> 00:12:10,630 and Bones which is an excellent tome on 314 00:12:16,140 --> 00:12:13,270 not just Sutton's work but a compendium 315 00:12:17,940 --> 00:12:16,150 of other authors such as retro car Polly 316 00:12:19,260 --> 00:12:17,950 and people like that you know if there's 317 00:12:21,090 --> 00:12:19,270 something you want to research it came 318 00:12:24,060 --> 00:12:21,100 in really handy for me because not only 319 00:12:25,620 --> 00:12:24,070 did he have all the names of all the 320 00:12:27,510 --> 00:12:25,630 people in the black books and who 321 00:12:30,210 --> 00:12:27,520 they're basically associated with all 322 00:12:33,030 --> 00:12:30,220 the address names but he had them listed 323 00:12:34,590 --> 00:12:33,040 in alphabetical order and also by year 324 00:12:36,510 --> 00:12:34,600 so you know depending on what you're 325 00:12:37,950 --> 00:12:36,520 looking for you know like I dug through 326 00:12:40,650 --> 00:12:37,960 these and looked at him name for name 327 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:40,660 over several days you know that comes in 328 00:12:45,290 --> 00:12:44,050 handy but I found that and so I figured 329 00:12:46,850 --> 00:12:45,300 that 330 00:12:49,220 --> 00:12:46,860 I asked Charlotte to forward the request 331 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:49,230 to Chris to kind of publish what I had 332 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:51,810 going together and it kind of worked out 333 00:12:56,420 --> 00:12:53,730 that what I was writing and what I've 334 00:12:58,490 --> 00:12:56,430 written has basically been right next to 335 00:13:00,170 --> 00:12:58,500 you know the original sources you know 336 00:13:02,690 --> 00:13:00,180 so it's as you mentioned based largely 337 00:13:03,889 --> 00:13:02,700 on Sutton's works and Charlotte is 338 00:13:06,889 --> 00:13:03,899 Ruby's deliberate dumbing down of 339 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:06,899 America so yeah that's how it kind of 340 00:13:10,310 --> 00:13:08,730 came about and you know I like to think 341 00:13:11,540 --> 00:13:10,320 that I'm carrying the torch of all the 342 00:13:14,329 --> 00:13:11,550 great work that those three have done 343 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:14,339 and standing on their shoulders yes yes 344 00:13:21,079 --> 00:13:17,490 great company here in and I think it's a 345 00:13:23,509 --> 00:13:21,089 really smart application of this 346 00:13:27,410 --> 00:13:23,519 research because of course people know 347 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:27,420 as we get older we sometimes aren't as 348 00:13:32,810 --> 00:13:30,930 clued in on new technology and the 349 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:32,820 things that are happening to younger 350 00:13:37,730 --> 00:13:35,490 generations and that is basically where 351 00:13:39,949 --> 00:13:37,740 your book picks up I mean it's got the 352 00:13:42,199 --> 00:13:39,959 history in there but it's really this 353 00:13:45,710 --> 00:13:42,209 latest phase the technological 354 00:13:49,460 --> 00:13:45,720 application of these philosophies this 355 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:49,470 alien philosophy in the school system 356 00:13:55,819 --> 00:13:51,810 and it's it's scary it is pretty 357 00:13:57,949 --> 00:13:55,829 impactful and so sometimes in conspiracy 358 00:14:00,199 --> 00:13:57,959 culture we talk about agendas and 359 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:00,209 players long after their influence has 360 00:14:05,030 --> 00:14:02,730 waned sometimes we make our own boogie 361 00:14:08,090 --> 00:14:05,040 men after their power is kind of fizzled 362 00:14:08,510 --> 00:14:08,100 out but we do see agents of skull and 363 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:08,520 bones 364 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:11,010 working on this technocratic phase of 365 00:14:15,079 --> 00:14:14,370 education even today right oh yeah 366 00:14:19,250 --> 00:14:15,089 absolutely 367 00:14:21,860 --> 00:14:19,260 so today if I could give a little 368 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:21,870 background yes because the main person I 369 00:14:27,139 --> 00:14:23,370 could refer to now is minuchin 370 00:14:29,269 --> 00:14:27,149 skullenbones Treasury secretary okay his 371 00:14:32,030 --> 00:14:29,279 is kind of indirect because what he's 372 00:14:34,310 --> 00:14:32,040 done is he helped a lot with Trump's tax 373 00:14:36,500 --> 00:14:34,320 cuts tax cuts and Jobs Act which some 374 00:14:37,639 --> 00:14:36,510 people call the tax cuts in a robots act 375 00:14:39,439 --> 00:14:37,649 because there's something called the 376 00:14:41,780 --> 00:14:39,449 full and immediate expensing clause 377 00:14:44,210 --> 00:14:41,790 which basically works like this okay 378 00:14:46,519 --> 00:14:44,220 when you buy new equipment as a business 379 00:14:48,170 --> 00:14:46,529 okay that equipment will depreciate over 380 00:14:50,389 --> 00:14:48,180 time and over time you can write off 381 00:14:53,210 --> 00:14:50,399 that depreciation the fluent immediate 382 00:14:55,069 --> 00:14:53,220 expensing a clause enables you in the 383 00:14:57,530 --> 00:14:55,079 coming years if you buy new equipment 384 00:15:00,470 --> 00:14:57,540 you can write off full depreciation that 385 00:15:02,530 --> 00:15:00,480 first year so basically what a lot of 386 00:15:05,870 --> 00:15:02,540 economist says look that suggests that 387 00:15:08,060 --> 00:15:05,880 what it will do is incentivize 388 00:15:10,100 --> 00:15:08,070 automation because you can basically buy 389 00:15:12,530 --> 00:15:10,110 you know for however many millions of 390 00:15:14,150 --> 00:15:12,540 dollars this robot or this software 391 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:14,160 program that can automate a bunch of 392 00:15:17,630 --> 00:15:16,050 your labor and although it would cost 393 00:15:19,730 --> 00:15:17,640 more than it would to pay your labor 394 00:15:21,500 --> 00:15:19,740 force for that year you're gonna get all 395 00:15:22,910 --> 00:15:21,510 that money back at the end and then 396 00:15:25,250 --> 00:15:22,920 you're going to basically cut out all 397 00:15:27,559 --> 00:15:25,260 that labor expenditure from there forth 398 00:15:28,970 --> 00:15:27,569 that would play into the education 399 00:15:31,130 --> 00:15:28,980 because it would obviously right 400 00:15:32,900 --> 00:15:31,140 incentivize the automation of some of 401 00:15:35,030 --> 00:15:32,910 these what they call adaptive learning 402 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:35,040 software which are based on the Skinner 403 00:15:38,269 --> 00:15:35,610 box 404 00:15:40,910 --> 00:15:38,279 okay BF Skinner's teaching machine which 405 00:15:44,420 --> 00:15:40,920 is based on psychological conditioning 406 00:15:45,769 --> 00:15:44,430 principles of behaviorism in particular 407 00:15:47,750 --> 00:15:45,779 operant conditioning which is a 408 00:15:49,730 --> 00:15:47,760 progression of behaviorism but it all 409 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:49,740 goes back to the stuff called stimulus 410 00:15:55,010 --> 00:15:52,170 response conditioning which came from 411 00:15:57,260 --> 00:15:55,020 the father of psychology as a laboratory 412 00:15:58,970 --> 00:15:57,270 science named vilhelm went and this 413 00:16:00,949 --> 00:15:58,980 would basically back us all the way up 414 00:16:04,090 --> 00:16:00,959 to the point where I was gonna start 415 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:04,100 instead of backing up - so there was a 416 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:06,770 psychology starch with vilhelm Flint and 417 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:09,810 basically before that psychology was the 418 00:16:14,809 --> 00:16:12,170 discipline of philosophy and so you know 419 00:16:17,420 --> 00:16:14,819 largely meant studying of the soul or 420 00:16:19,340 --> 00:16:17,430 the psyche okay but you know Flint 421 00:16:20,630 --> 00:16:19,350 basically took an empirical approach 422 00:16:22,069 --> 00:16:20,640 says you're never going to be able to 423 00:16:25,579 --> 00:16:22,079 measure that thing so what you're going 424 00:16:27,710 --> 00:16:25,589 to do is we can sort of measure whatever 425 00:16:30,949 --> 00:16:27,720 the essence of a person is based on 426 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:30,959 their behaviors and we can reshape that 427 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:32,250 essence by tree shape 428 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:34,290 their behaviors and we reshape their 429 00:16:38,750 --> 00:16:36,450 behaviors based on the social 430 00:16:41,210 --> 00:16:38,760 environment so behaviors are responses 431 00:16:42,860 --> 00:16:41,220 to your environment the retirement is 432 00:16:44,420 --> 00:16:42,870 broken down into a different what he 433 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:44,430 called stimuli and then you have 434 00:16:49,490 --> 00:16:46,770 responses to those stimuli okay 435 00:16:51,530 --> 00:16:49,500 basically this is the beginning of stuff 436 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:51,540 like Pavlov's dog with classical 437 00:16:56,030 --> 00:16:53,850 conditioning people don't remember that 438 00:16:58,930 --> 00:16:56,040 story it's basically all right you can 439 00:17:01,550 --> 00:16:58,940 conditioned associations between 440 00:17:03,230 --> 00:17:01,560 unnatural stimuli by associating them 441 00:17:04,939 --> 00:17:03,240 with natural stimuli and then you 442 00:17:06,890 --> 00:17:04,949 transfer whatever is the response to the 443 00:17:09,079 --> 00:17:06,900 natural stimuli to the unnatural so 444 00:17:10,850 --> 00:17:09,089 Pavlov demonstrated that a natural 445 00:17:11,689 --> 00:17:10,860 stimuli of food would make a dog 446 00:17:13,790 --> 00:17:11,699 salivate 447 00:17:15,140 --> 00:17:13,800 if you rang a bell it would then 448 00:17:17,090 --> 00:17:15,150 associate the bell with the food 449 00:17:19,220 --> 00:17:17,100 eventually you can ring the bell without 450 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:19,230 the food and since the dog associated 451 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:20,970 the bell with the food it would salivate 452 00:17:25,010 --> 00:17:23,250 and so this basically becomes the 453 00:17:28,910 --> 00:17:25,020 principle for education 454 00:17:31,130 --> 00:17:28,920 it's transferred over to the American 455 00:17:33,980 --> 00:17:31,140 University system the American education 456 00:17:36,530 --> 00:17:33,990 system by this guy Daniel Quaid Gilman 457 00:17:38,660 --> 00:17:36,540 and then two others Andrew Dixon white 458 00:17:40,250 --> 00:17:38,670 and Timothy Dwight these three are what 459 00:17:43,220 --> 00:17:40,260 sudden refers to as the troika of 460 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:43,230 skullenbones they helped to set up the 461 00:17:47,390 --> 00:17:45,450 early university system that is they set 462 00:17:49,010 --> 00:17:47,400 up Gilman in particular was the first 463 00:17:52,670 --> 00:17:49,020 president at Johns Hopkins University 464 00:17:54,950 --> 00:17:52,680 Cornell and Cal Berkeley they set those 465 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:54,960 strip together maybe one of those is the 466 00:17:58,970 --> 00:17:56,730 president I might as scramble some of 467 00:18:00,920 --> 00:17:58,980 those details there but they all 468 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:00,930 basically promote not just the Galleon 469 00:18:08,060 --> 00:18:04,010 ism but one thing stimulus response 470 00:18:10,850 --> 00:18:08,070 psychology okay basically that is 471 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:10,860 carried on later it gets passed down 472 00:18:17,030 --> 00:18:14,250 from G Stanley Hall who Gilman hires at 473 00:18:19,430 --> 00:18:17,040 Johns Hopkins University he passes it 474 00:18:21,260 --> 00:18:19,440 down to John Dewey who basically pushes 475 00:18:23,870 --> 00:18:21,270 it at the University of Chicago and 476 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:23,880 Columbia University he has a student 477 00:18:29,180 --> 00:18:26,970 John B Watson who basically comes up 478 00:18:32,390 --> 00:18:29,190 with this thing called behaviorism also 479 00:18:35,390 --> 00:18:32,400 applies it to advertising and then 480 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:35,400 there's also Al Thorndike who comes out 481 00:18:39,470 --> 00:18:37,170 of the same tradition the same school at 482 00:18:41,390 --> 00:18:39,480 Columbia University pl-4 and I because 483 00:18:43,100 --> 00:18:41,400 the guy that popularizes what he called 484 00:18:45,140 --> 00:18:43,110 the puzzlebox experiments this is the 485 00:18:46,130 --> 00:18:45,150 beginning of putting rats and mazes and 486 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:46,140 things and there's 487 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:47,850 objected that you wanted to get and 488 00:18:52,130 --> 00:18:49,170 you're gonna condition it to get that 489 00:18:54,170 --> 00:18:52,140 objective based on not just a vague 490 00:18:56,060 --> 00:18:54,180 association between a single stimulus in 491 00:18:58,250 --> 00:18:56,070 a response but through a series of 492 00:18:59,960 --> 00:18:58,260 punishments and rewards associating 493 00:19:02,540 --> 00:18:59,970 punishment and reward with the stimulus 494 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:02,550 of the response BF Skinner picks that up 495 00:19:07,940 --> 00:19:06,090 and he applies it to the modern computer 496 00:19:10,430 --> 00:19:07,950 back then it was the teaching machine 497 00:19:12,860 --> 00:19:10,440 okay he just added some other quadrants 498 00:19:15,860 --> 00:19:12,870 to the punishment reward system and then 499 00:19:17,270 --> 00:19:15,870 he basically suggested that he literally 500 00:19:20,060 --> 00:19:17,280 said he could make a pigeon a high 501 00:19:21,860 --> 00:19:20,070 achiever on the proper schedule hmm so 502 00:19:24,850 --> 00:19:21,870 he comes up with the teaching machine 503 00:19:28,070 --> 00:19:24,860 and this is pushed by skullenbones Minh 504 00:19:30,260 --> 00:19:28,080 McGeorge Bundy so Gilman Dwight and 505 00:19:32,660 --> 00:19:30,270 white pass it down to george bundy this 506 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:32,670 is around the 60s the teaching machine 507 00:19:36,020 --> 00:19:34,410 which for BF Skinner was this analog 508 00:19:38,060 --> 00:19:36,030 thing like you can look at Smithsonian 509 00:19:39,500 --> 00:19:38,070 website see pictures of it it's kind of 510 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:39,510 like the old view masters if you 511 00:19:42,980 --> 00:19:41,490 remember the view master thing I used to 512 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:42,990 get these little discs and had pictures 513 00:19:46,820 --> 00:19:44,970 of Disney scenes or whatever cartoon on 514 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:46,830 it you put it in these goggles and you 515 00:19:49,850 --> 00:19:48,450 hold the goggles up to your face and 516 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:49,860 then you pull this slide and it rotates 517 00:19:54,830 --> 00:19:51,690 the disc and you see a different picture 518 00:19:57,110 --> 00:19:54,840 in time well put on that disc questions 519 00:19:59,060 --> 00:19:57,120 that you have to answer and then you can 520 00:20:01,010 --> 00:19:59,070 only go one way with the rotation so as 521 00:20:03,170 --> 00:20:01,020 you go through you'd answer these 522 00:20:05,360 --> 00:20:03,180 questions that are the stimulus your 523 00:20:06,590 --> 00:20:05,370 answer is the response and then he 524 00:20:08,330 --> 00:20:06,600 actually some of these machines would 525 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:08,340 have chocolate and things that they 526 00:20:12,590 --> 00:20:10,170 would dispense if you got right answers 527 00:20:15,140 --> 00:20:12,600 you know soap reward punishment or lack 528 00:20:16,850 --> 00:20:15,150 of reward and so he figured that this 529 00:20:18,860 --> 00:20:16,860 was a way that you could teach people 530 00:20:21,110 --> 00:20:18,870 well you just take that and you remove 531 00:20:22,460 --> 00:20:21,120 all the analog stuff like the gears and 532 00:20:24,380 --> 00:20:22,470 the wheels and all that and you just 533 00:20:26,690 --> 00:20:24,390 make it digital and you turn those into 534 00:20:28,370 --> 00:20:26,700 Windows on a computer screen and that's 535 00:20:30,170 --> 00:20:28,380 your modern teaching computer which is 536 00:20:31,870 --> 00:20:30,180 called the adaptive learning software 537 00:20:33,950 --> 00:20:31,880 which runs on the stimulus-response 538 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:33,960 psychological conditioning principle 539 00:20:41,090 --> 00:20:36,930 that can be promoted through the 540 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:41,100 Newton's tax cuts and Jobs Act damn that 541 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:43,770 is a whirlwind but that really is the 542 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:46,050 the background the history of Education 543 00:20:50,030 --> 00:20:48,210 and we can see these behaviorist 544 00:20:53,870 --> 00:20:50,040 techniques applied to school pretty 545 00:20:56,420 --> 00:20:53,880 easily using the bells as Pavlovian 546 00:20:58,240 --> 00:20:56,430 training conditioning us for a life of 547 00:21:00,940 --> 00:20:58,250 clock in clock out 548 00:21:02,890 --> 00:21:00,950 watching the country slowly drift lower 549 00:21:06,340 --> 00:21:02,900 and lower across the educational 550 00:21:08,590 --> 00:21:06,350 categories and this idea of workforce 551 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:08,600 training we often think of it as 552 00:21:14,500 --> 00:21:11,930 something from back in the day of like 553 00:21:17,140 --> 00:21:14,510 the assembly line you know teaching 554 00:21:18,850 --> 00:21:17,150 people just listen for that work whistle 555 00:21:21,340 --> 00:21:18,860 go to lunch and then come back for 556 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:21,350 another four hours of screwing this 557 00:21:25,810 --> 00:21:24,410 bolts onto this piece of metal it's not 558 00:21:28,090 --> 00:21:25,820 like we have assembly lines anymore 559 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:28,100 necessarily but it definitely seems like 560 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:30,730 this idea of workforce training is just 561 00:21:36,700 --> 00:21:33,770 masked as education and this isn't 562 00:21:38,950 --> 00:21:36,710 necessarily new it's just kind of a new 563 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:38,960 application of this old behavior is 564 00:21:44,140 --> 00:21:41,450 thinking is that fair to say yeah 565 00:21:45,910 --> 00:21:44,150 actually you know I could segue to some 566 00:21:48,250 --> 00:21:45,920 of the other points which an analog 567 00:21:50,530 --> 00:21:48,260 would be the assembly line on like sort 568 00:21:52,300 --> 00:21:50,540 of a factory production system well they 569 00:21:53,890 --> 00:21:52,310 have a you know a new pedagogy it's 570 00:21:56,770 --> 00:21:53,900 fancy word for teaching philosophy 571 00:21:58,630 --> 00:21:56,780 called Career Pathways so basically 572 00:22:00,850 --> 00:21:58,640 instead of having the liberal arts 573 00:22:02,710 --> 00:22:00,860 academic tradition of learning you know 574 00:22:05,140 --> 00:22:02,720 the Trivium and the quadrivium the three 575 00:22:07,690 --> 00:22:05,150 language arts and traditional math and 576 00:22:10,660 --> 00:22:07,700 science arts you would basically get put 577 00:22:13,270 --> 00:22:10,670 on a career path that's based on a 578 00:22:14,890 --> 00:22:13,280 predetermined job that you're going to 579 00:22:17,590 --> 00:22:14,900 work and this goes with a philosophy 580 00:22:19,630 --> 00:22:17,600 called competency-based education or 581 00:22:21,700 --> 00:22:19,640 outcomes based education they're 582 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:21,710 basically flip sides of the same coin or 583 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:23,450 different versions of each other so 584 00:22:27,670 --> 00:22:25,490 outcomes based education says that we 585 00:22:31,120 --> 00:22:27,680 teach people based on predetermined 586 00:22:33,270 --> 00:22:31,130 outcomes okay so basically we have an 587 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:33,280 outcome we want the student to reach 588 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:36,650 prior to that and then that usually 589 00:22:41,380 --> 00:22:39,170 means a particular job or particular set 590 00:22:43,330 --> 00:22:41,390 of job skills well as you mentioned 591 00:22:45,430 --> 00:22:43,340 right that old whistle system which you 592 00:22:47,380 --> 00:22:45,440 know the analog is the bell system now 593 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:47,390 that goes to what was called Taylorism 594 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:49,490 so this guy Taylor back in the 595 00:22:54,490 --> 00:22:51,770 industrial period basically took the 596 00:22:56,650 --> 00:22:54,500 scientific method he broke it down to 597 00:22:59,020 --> 00:22:56,660 make people not just make the assembly 598 00:23:00,550 --> 00:22:59,030 line more efficient but actually get 599 00:23:02,770 --> 00:23:00,560 more labor out of people and to 600 00:23:04,300 --> 00:23:02,780 compartmentalize what you're doing and 601 00:23:06,250 --> 00:23:04,310 so that just gets transferred to the 602 00:23:08,890 --> 00:23:06,260 career path so you only have to learn 603 00:23:09,340 --> 00:23:08,900 enough to perform the job and nothing 604 00:23:11,750 --> 00:23:09,350 more 605 00:23:13,370 --> 00:23:11,760 beyond that okay this is the competence 606 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:13,380 bass part so you have a particular 607 00:23:17,750 --> 00:23:15,210 outcome which is for a particular 608 00:23:20,120 --> 00:23:17,760 industry that they predetermine you are 609 00:23:22,460 --> 00:23:20,130 suitable for and then you're only going 610 00:23:24,380 --> 00:23:22,470 to be taught to be just competent enough 611 00:23:26,120 --> 00:23:24,390 to do that job and they're not going to 612 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:26,130 give you anything else outside of that 613 00:23:30,020 --> 00:23:27,450 because you know that would make things 614 00:23:31,970 --> 00:23:30,030 not run as smoothly right you might be 615 00:23:34,100 --> 00:23:31,980 I'm not happy pulling your lever or 616 00:23:36,500 --> 00:23:34,110 pushing your button or clicking your 617 00:23:38,570 --> 00:23:36,510 keyboard or whatever you might have 618 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:38,580 higher aspirations and higher thoughts 619 00:23:43,910 --> 00:23:41,610 so yeah it fits right into that they 620 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:43,920 refer to it as a conveyor belt system in 621 00:23:49,550 --> 00:23:45,690 the Harlem Children's Zone it's a big 622 00:23:52,580 --> 00:23:49,560 charter school system mm-hmm man this is 623 00:23:55,250 --> 00:23:52,590 all such great info and it's funny how 624 00:23:57,050 --> 00:23:55,260 if we're looking at the previous age we 625 00:24:00,740 --> 00:23:57,060 would say that the state shouldn't 626 00:24:02,660 --> 00:24:00,750 control education that the government 627 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:02,670 shouldn't be able to take our kids and 628 00:24:07,910 --> 00:24:05,010 force them to be in the school system 629 00:24:10,310 --> 00:24:07,920 eight hours a day until adulthood but 630 00:24:13,220 --> 00:24:10,320 now I mean it's looking like the better 631 00:24:16,250 --> 00:24:13,230 option compared to privatizing it for 632 00:24:19,010 --> 00:24:16,260 technocratic corporate control I guess 633 00:24:20,780 --> 00:24:19,020 talk to us about how this should concern 634 00:24:23,870 --> 00:24:20,790 us this pivot and how these corporations 635 00:24:26,180 --> 00:24:23,880 are weaseling into education because it 636 00:24:27,830 --> 00:24:26,190 seems like you know we just 637 00:24:30,020 --> 00:24:27,840 you gave the background and it's like 638 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:30,030 well the state shouldn't control this 639 00:24:34,060 --> 00:24:31,530 but I guess it's the lesser of two evils 640 00:24:36,670 --> 00:24:34,070 in a sense 641 00:24:38,530 --> 00:24:36,680 yeah so there's a couple things there 642 00:24:41,020 --> 00:24:38,540 like so how did the corporations get in 643 00:24:42,940 --> 00:24:41,030 is one question because I do advocate 644 00:24:45,010 --> 00:24:42,950 for basically saving the public 645 00:24:46,810 --> 00:24:45,020 education system right or defending it 646 00:24:48,820 --> 00:24:46,820 right but I do look at write the history 647 00:24:50,140 --> 00:24:48,830 of compulsory education which is also 648 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:50,150 set up by skull and bones that's 649 00:24:54,970 --> 00:24:52,610 Alphonso Taft at Antioch College Horace 650 00:24:57,250 --> 00:24:54,980 Mann and people like that based on 15 651 00:24:58,990 --> 00:24:57,260 and Hegelian philosophy 652 00:25:01,510 --> 00:24:59,000 and you're right you know there is that 653 00:25:04,780 --> 00:25:01,520 what the state controls will be you know 654 00:25:05,740 --> 00:25:04,790 used for the state's benefit but you 655 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:05,750 know there's different philosophies 656 00:25:10,420 --> 00:25:07,850 about what is the public sector versus 657 00:25:11,740 --> 00:25:10,430 the state right and I don't just say 658 00:25:13,510 --> 00:25:11,750 that flippantly like you know your 659 00:25:15,550 --> 00:25:13,520 github or Moz would say something like 660 00:25:17,740 --> 00:25:15,560 the public is actually separate from 661 00:25:19,750 --> 00:25:17,750 both the state and the private right it 662 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:19,760 would be something like the Commons I'm 663 00:25:23,020 --> 00:25:21,290 not saying you know we can necessarily 664 00:25:25,360 --> 00:25:23,030 get that far back to that type of a 665 00:25:28,030 --> 00:25:25,370 public education system but ultimately 666 00:25:30,910 --> 00:25:28,040 my solution is local control at some 667 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:30,920 level and that requires some sort of a 668 00:25:35,260 --> 00:25:32,690 public sphere now you know do you want 669 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:35,270 to use harbor Mazdas Commons definition 670 00:25:38,020 --> 00:25:36,770 or something that has a closer 671 00:25:40,090 --> 00:25:38,030 relationship to what we would 672 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:40,100 traditionally called state apparatus you 673 00:25:45,460 --> 00:25:42,530 know at either level that is the 674 00:25:47,590 --> 00:25:45,470 scenario where the individual person the 675 00:25:49,780 --> 00:25:47,600 individual citizen has the most control 676 00:25:52,360 --> 00:25:49,790 over the curriculum and with their kids 677 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:52,370 learn so you know that's why that needs 678 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:54,610 to be preserved in some state and 679 00:25:58,900 --> 00:25:57,170 protected from the corporatization so 680 00:26:01,600 --> 00:25:58,910 the corporatization as we mentioned well 681 00:26:02,740 --> 00:26:01,610 there's two layers to that we talked 682 00:26:04,150 --> 00:26:02,750 about the first one first which is 683 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:04,160 actually the privatization of the 684 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:06,050 schools themselves this means turning 685 00:26:11,050 --> 00:26:09,290 them into charter schools which are 686 00:26:12,550 --> 00:26:11,060 basically public private it's different 687 00:26:14,380 --> 00:26:12,560 from just a private school where you 688 00:26:15,970 --> 00:26:14,390 know you pay your own cash and then it's 689 00:26:18,130 --> 00:26:15,980 separate from the government's scenario 690 00:26:20,580 --> 00:26:18,140 the corporatization of schooling means 691 00:26:23,410 --> 00:26:20,590 you have a private company that takes 692 00:26:25,360 --> 00:26:23,420 government tax dollars to subsidize it 693 00:26:27,730 --> 00:26:25,370 and then the students or the parents 694 00:26:29,980 --> 00:26:27,740 also pay a tuition so it's both of those 695 00:26:31,330 --> 00:26:29,990 combined this is essentially what I 696 00:26:32,770 --> 00:26:31,340 would call fascism this is what 697 00:26:34,750 --> 00:26:32,780 Charlotte called it when she was at the 698 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:34,760 Department of Education and she saw 699 00:26:38,590 --> 00:26:36,410 Reagan's the private sector initiative 700 00:26:39,670 --> 00:26:38,600 and you know she says people looked at 701 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:39,680 her and kind of said well we didn't 702 00:26:43,390 --> 00:26:41,570 think about it like it was fascism 703 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:43,400 Charlotte but I don't know how else you 704 00:26:47,740 --> 00:26:45,050 could think about it because you know I 705 00:26:48,910 --> 00:26:47,750 mean using Mussolini's term line I know 706 00:26:51,570 --> 00:26:48,920 that people have said it's apocryphal 707 00:26:54,580 --> 00:26:51,580 but it's come to be used ubiquitously 708 00:26:57,130 --> 00:26:54,590 for largely what we refer to when we 709 00:26:58,990 --> 00:26:57,140 talk about fascism - the ethnic part and 710 00:27:00,910 --> 00:26:59,000 the nationalist part wishes it's the 711 00:27:03,250 --> 00:27:00,920 merger of the government in the 712 00:27:05,230 --> 00:27:03,260 corporate sector and that's neither 713 00:27:07,270 --> 00:27:05,240 public nor private so you don't have 714 00:27:10,420 --> 00:27:07,280 rights as a citizen and you don't have 715 00:27:11,140 --> 00:27:10,430 any rights to tell the company what to 716 00:27:13,180 --> 00:27:11,150 do unless you 717 00:27:14,770 --> 00:27:13,190 employees there and then you still are 718 00:27:17,710 --> 00:27:14,780 right you don't have rights like a 719 00:27:20,110 --> 00:27:17,720 citizen there either okay so that 720 00:27:21,790 --> 00:27:20,120 happens through the charter schools but 721 00:27:23,890 --> 00:27:21,800 it also happens through the voucher 722 00:27:25,330 --> 00:27:23,900 system and so that means basically what 723 00:27:27,430 --> 00:27:25,340 they're doing is you can get a voucher 724 00:27:28,660 --> 00:27:27,440 and then you can take that voucher so 725 00:27:30,340 --> 00:27:28,670 the government's gonna give you some 726 00:27:32,890 --> 00:27:30,350 money usually federal or sometimes they 727 00:27:35,770 --> 00:27:32,900 have state vouchers and they're going to 728 00:27:37,210 --> 00:27:35,780 give you this money and you're gonna 729 00:27:39,130 --> 00:27:37,220 take that money to pay for tuition 730 00:27:40,870 --> 00:27:39,140 wherever you want to go if you want to 731 00:27:43,180 --> 00:27:40,880 take your child out of the public school 732 00:27:45,100 --> 00:27:43,190 system okay but with that voucher that 733 00:27:46,690 --> 00:27:45,110 means that that private school let's say 734 00:27:48,130 --> 00:27:46,700 it was a parochial school right it could 735 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:48,140 have been a old religious school 736 00:27:51,580 --> 00:27:50,090 Catholic school or something right when 737 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:51,590 they start taking that voucher money 738 00:27:55,360 --> 00:27:53,210 they have federal money they're subject 739 00:27:56,830 --> 00:27:55,370 to federal jurisdiction so now you know 740 00:27:58,480 --> 00:27:56,840 if you took your children there to get 741 00:28:00,790 --> 00:27:58,490 out of the public school system or out 742 00:28:03,220 --> 00:28:00,800 of better said the government school 743 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:03,230 system you're not because by taking the 744 00:28:07,660 --> 00:28:04,610 voucher the federal money there you're 745 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:07,670 taking the federal policies with it down 746 00:28:12,220 --> 00:28:10,610 the road this has more pernicious 747 00:28:15,940 --> 00:28:12,230 effects in the sense that it can 748 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:15,950 basically destroy the public governance 749 00:28:20,169 --> 00:28:18,410 of education because charter schools 750 00:28:21,850 --> 00:28:20,179 just like any company right they're 751 00:28:24,010 --> 00:28:21,860 subject to the corporate Council there 752 00:28:25,570 --> 00:28:24,020 is no elected body for a charter school 753 00:28:28,150 --> 00:28:25,580 there's no elected school board so 754 00:28:30,190 --> 00:28:28,160 essentially it would get rid of elected 755 00:28:32,860 --> 00:28:30,200 school boards there's a guy his name is 756 00:28:34,270 --> 00:28:32,870 Reed Hastings he did this because it a 757 00:28:37,530 --> 00:28:34,280 TEDTalk he was a TEDTalk 758 00:28:40,540 --> 00:28:37,540 does a big presentation on what he calls 759 00:28:42,100 --> 00:28:40,550 self-perpetuating governance and this is 760 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:42,110 the model that's used for charter 761 00:28:44,770 --> 00:28:43,490 schools and these funds charter schools 762 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:44,780 all kinds of charter schools he sat on 763 00:28:48,850 --> 00:28:47,330 charter school board in California and 764 00:28:50,260 --> 00:28:48,860 he said it's better than elected school 765 00:28:52,299 --> 00:28:50,270 boards cuz elected school boards are 766 00:28:53,740 --> 00:28:52,309 messy because you know you gotta people 767 00:28:55,270 --> 00:28:53,750 disagree in and then you know if you 768 00:28:56,919 --> 00:28:55,280 finally got somebody good in for four 769 00:28:58,210 --> 00:28:56,929 years they might vote them out for some 770 00:29:00,640 --> 00:28:58,220 reason and then you gotta start all over 771 00:29:02,590 --> 00:29:00,650 he says it's better to self perpetuate 772 00:29:03,250 --> 00:29:02,600 the policy so you can keep moving 773 00:29:06,190 --> 00:29:03,260 forward 774 00:29:09,250 --> 00:29:06,200 with whatever progress you're making so 775 00:29:10,750 --> 00:29:09,260 this public-private merger of the 776 00:29:15,250 --> 00:29:10,760 corporate sector and private sector in 777 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:15,260 education also takes the form of I guess 778 00:29:18,100 --> 00:29:16,730 it would look more like the communist 779 00:29:19,690 --> 00:29:18,110 version as opposed to the fascist 780 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:19,700 version but there's still public private 781 00:29:23,830 --> 00:29:21,530 it's still merger of government and 782 00:29:24,610 --> 00:29:23,840 business and those are what are called 783 00:29:26,980 --> 00:29:24,620 commune 784 00:29:28,660 --> 00:29:26,990 schools okay or full service Community 785 00:29:30,850 --> 00:29:28,670 Schools and those have to actually have 786 00:29:32,530 --> 00:29:30,860 mental health components and criminal 787 00:29:34,030 --> 00:29:32,540 justice components according to the 788 00:29:35,950 --> 00:29:34,040 every student succeeds act if you want 789 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:35,960 to get grants from the federal 790 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:37,730 government under the every student 791 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:39,290 succeeds Act which replaces the 792 00:29:44,740 --> 00:29:41,330 Elementary and Secondary Education Act 793 00:29:47,650 --> 00:29:44,750 of 1960 so it's the main federal law 794 00:29:49,630 --> 00:29:47,660 overseeing public education you have to 795 00:29:51,700 --> 00:29:49,640 have those components in your community 796 00:29:54,370 --> 00:29:51,710 school they don't have to only be 797 00:29:56,590 --> 00:29:54,380 facilitated through the federal level at 798 00:29:59,310 --> 00:29:56,600 the state level you have these things 799 00:30:02,350 --> 00:29:59,320 called P 16 or P 20 councils and 800 00:30:05,650 --> 00:30:02,360 basically these are state-level councils 801 00:30:08,230 --> 00:30:05,660 that have legal stipulations for the 802 00:30:11,890 --> 00:30:08,240 same connections between education 803 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:11,900 mental health and criminal justice the P 804 00:30:17,799 --> 00:30:15,410 16 refers to pre education or preschool 805 00:30:20,290 --> 00:30:17,809 up to age 16 and then they started 806 00:30:22,510 --> 00:30:20,300 adding the 20 right so that means after 807 00:30:25,030 --> 00:30:22,520 you've graduated your traditional high 808 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:25,040 school education which means it's into 809 00:30:28,540 --> 00:30:27,050 your adulthood and this parallels with 810 00:30:31,690 --> 00:30:28,550 something called the United Nations 811 00:30:33,669 --> 00:30:31,700 lifelong learning pedagogy and funny 812 00:30:35,169 --> 00:30:33,679 enough if you look in the UK they have 813 00:30:38,950 --> 00:30:35,179 something that parallels that called the 814 00:30:40,900 --> 00:30:38,960 post 16 skills and so basically what 815 00:30:43,660 --> 00:30:40,910 you're seeing then is right at the state 816 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:43,670 and federal levels globally you have 817 00:30:47,110 --> 00:30:45,170 these different versions of what are 818 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:47,120 called the UN's lifelong learning 819 00:30:53,430 --> 00:30:50,170 policies which is gonna mix together 820 00:30:55,630 --> 00:30:53,440 international standards through 821 00:31:00,190 --> 00:30:55,640 public-private partnerships largely ran 822 00:31:03,490 --> 00:31:00,200 by private companies mmm-hmm yeah man 823 00:31:06,310 --> 00:31:03,500 just so much information and we can 824 00:31:09,010 --> 00:31:06,320 definitely see how a publicly elected 825 00:31:12,430 --> 00:31:09,020 school board is way better than these P 826 00:31:15,580 --> 00:31:12,440 16 P 20 corporate controlled councils 827 00:31:17,830 --> 00:31:15,590 and it's like you know despite 828 00:31:20,950 --> 00:31:17,840 everything they tried to set up with 829 00:31:24,669 --> 00:31:20,960 education initially the human factor 830 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:24,679 still survived we all had inspirational 831 00:31:29,890 --> 00:31:27,170 teachers in an uninspired system and 832 00:31:32,980 --> 00:31:29,900 it's like what's going on now is a new 833 00:31:34,810 --> 00:31:32,990 phase of refinement of the same old 834 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:34,820 control agenda they just have better 835 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:38,570 tools now and it's like there 836 00:31:44,019 --> 00:31:40,490 eliminating that human factor they're 837 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:44,029 eliminating the local school boards who 838 00:31:48,310 --> 00:31:46,250 might be altruistic and actually care 839 00:31:49,779 --> 00:31:48,320 about their kids education and if you 840 00:31:52,930 --> 00:31:49,789 can put it right into the hands of the 841 00:31:54,940 --> 00:31:52,940 corporation's it's just such a dirty 842 00:31:57,460 --> 00:31:54,950 trick and it's gonna be a lot more cold 843 00:31:59,409 --> 00:31:57,470 calculated and effective to get that 844 00:32:01,539 --> 00:31:59,419 agenda through like you said you take 845 00:32:05,049 --> 00:32:01,549 the government money now you're subject 846 00:32:07,299 --> 00:32:05,059 to government control and who is in 847 00:32:09,639 --> 00:32:07,309 these government positions well it's the 848 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:09,649 agents of the corporations because it's 849 00:32:16,210 --> 00:32:11,570 the same old revolving door that we see 850 00:32:17,470 --> 00:32:16,220 in GMOs or the FDA the EPA it's like you 851 00:32:20,049 --> 00:32:17,480 get the corporation's 852 00:32:21,639 --> 00:32:20,059 in there with the agencies that are 853 00:32:24,029 --> 00:32:21,649 supposed to police these sectors of 854 00:32:26,799 --> 00:32:24,039 society and then you get the full-on 855 00:32:28,450 --> 00:32:26,809 corporate role out and it's just crazy 856 00:32:30,879 --> 00:32:28,460 that I don't hear that many people 857 00:32:33,730 --> 00:32:30,889 talking about it in schooling but you're 858 00:32:35,860 --> 00:32:33,740 nailing it man yeah I should have added 859 00:32:37,350 --> 00:32:35,870 to it there's another angle is that so 860 00:32:40,060 --> 00:32:37,360 you know you're essentially then 861 00:32:40,810 --> 00:32:40,070 subsidizing not just the private 862 00:32:43,899 --> 00:32:40,820 corporate schools 863 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:43,909 you're also subsidizing the larger 864 00:32:48,279 --> 00:32:46,490 private industry that funnels into those 865 00:32:50,289 --> 00:32:48,289 career pathways so through these career 866 00:32:52,659 --> 00:32:50,299 pathways they also usually have not just 867 00:32:54,909 --> 00:32:52,669 hey we're going to predetermine based on 868 00:32:57,070 --> 00:32:54,919 your psychometric and your biometric 869 00:33:00,519 --> 00:32:57,080 algorithms that you are only suitable 870 00:33:01,990 --> 00:33:00,529 for a job a B or C it's not just that 871 00:33:04,690 --> 00:33:02,000 but it's you're suitable for this 872 00:33:06,850 --> 00:33:04,700 particular company based on what is in 873 00:33:08,710 --> 00:33:06,860 demand for industry in your local area 874 00:33:10,869 --> 00:33:08,720 okay so another part of removing the 875 00:33:11,499 --> 00:33:10,879 elected school boards is regional 876 00:33:13,899 --> 00:33:11,509 governance 877 00:33:16,029 --> 00:33:13,909 so through these different p20 right you 878 00:33:17,799 --> 00:33:16,039 don't only have the removal of the local 879 00:33:19,659 --> 00:33:17,809 elected school board but you start to 880 00:33:21,970 --> 00:33:19,669 regionalize then you start to regionally 881 00:33:24,039 --> 00:33:21,980 plan how the various schools in that 882 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:24,049 region are gonna coordinate each other's 883 00:33:27,820 --> 00:33:25,610 curriculums based on the larger 884 00:33:29,499 --> 00:33:27,830 industries in those regions and those 885 00:33:32,350 --> 00:33:29,509 are basically going to be pumped into 886 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:32,360 not your small mom-and-pop business 887 00:33:36,389 --> 00:33:33,970 these are gonna be the large you know 888 00:33:39,129 --> 00:33:36,399 multinational chains so you're also 889 00:33:40,869 --> 00:33:39,139 subsidizing their workforce training 890 00:33:42,430 --> 00:33:40,879 you're paying for them what they should 891 00:33:43,930 --> 00:33:42,440 be paying for their own in-house 892 00:33:47,289 --> 00:33:43,940 training for their own workers you're 893 00:33:50,889 --> 00:33:47,299 doing that as well mm-hmm-hmm it really 894 00:33:52,390 --> 00:33:50,899 is the same old philosophy that the 895 00:33:56,140 --> 00:33:52,400 elite carry which is this 896 00:33:58,990 --> 00:33:56,150 top-down empirical management this idea 897 00:34:01,030 --> 00:33:59,000 that well they need us to do what we're 898 00:34:03,100 --> 00:34:01,040 doing otherwise it would just be chaos 899 00:34:05,140 --> 00:34:03,110 out there they need our guidance they 900 00:34:07,630 --> 00:34:05,150 need our systems and we need to 901 00:34:10,450 --> 00:34:07,640 micromanage every little aspect of their 902 00:34:13,510 --> 00:34:10,460 lives not only for our own profits but 903 00:34:15,340 --> 00:34:13,520 because people are stupid and you know 904 00:34:17,290 --> 00:34:15,350 they don't do what we want them to do 905 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:17,300 and it's just it's the same backwards 906 00:34:22,350 --> 00:34:19,970 thinking this this elitism that we 907 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:22,360 really just need to get away from 908 00:34:25,860 --> 00:34:24,490 yeah and another thing about that is 909 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:25,870 that you know handle another part of 910 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:27,370 Headless philosophy was that he 911 00:34:30,630 --> 00:34:29,170 literally said that the state is God 912 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:30,640 marching on earth 913 00:34:34,980 --> 00:34:33,130 so for Hetal he's basically a pantheist 914 00:34:36,300 --> 00:34:34,990 right they say it would say pan Anthea 915 00:34:37,410 --> 00:34:36,310 so they would say there's a lot of 916 00:34:39,300 --> 00:34:37,420 people say well there wasn't like a 917 00:34:42,450 --> 00:34:39,310 layer to a transcendent being but 918 00:34:45,090 --> 00:34:42,460 largely God is coming down into all the 919 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:45,100 contradictions right and for him God was 920 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:47,770 also reason and logos not in the way 921 00:34:51,930 --> 00:34:50,170 that I would use it or the classical 922 00:34:54,030 --> 00:34:51,940 philosophers would use it but in more of 923 00:34:56,220 --> 00:34:54,040 a pantheist sense that through these 924 00:34:58,200 --> 00:34:56,230 contradictions I've because in formal 925 00:35:00,330 --> 00:34:58,210 logic you know the contradictions can't 926 00:35:02,220 --> 00:35:00,340 exist but forehead will truth came 927 00:35:05,250 --> 00:35:02,230 through contradictions it's through that 928 00:35:07,950 --> 00:35:05,260 and so the state was the perfect merger 929 00:35:10,290 --> 00:35:07,960 of whatever contradictions you had in 930 00:35:12,390 --> 00:35:10,300 the different spheres of the society and 931 00:35:15,540 --> 00:35:12,400 would be you know social stratification 932 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:15,550 or a caste system or whatever so in that 933 00:35:19,140 --> 00:35:17,290 sense he said that the state is God 934 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:19,150 marching on earth because it is 935 00:35:24,900 --> 00:35:22,330 basically the physical the material and 936 00:35:26,910 --> 00:35:24,910 energy manifestation of that 937 00:35:28,620 --> 00:35:26,920 transcendent thing through these 938 00:35:31,350 --> 00:35:28,630 different forces working together on 939 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:31,360 this plane here and this material plane 940 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:34,210 and another part of that dough meant 941 00:35:38,910 --> 00:35:37,090 that he had the slave master concept 942 00:35:41,580 --> 00:35:38,920 work okay so that would be an example of 943 00:35:44,970 --> 00:35:41,590 contradictions or these opposing forces 944 00:35:47,940 --> 00:35:44,980 but Hegel basically saw it as like this 945 00:35:50,340 --> 00:35:47,950 Union that the slave and the master were 946 00:35:52,470 --> 00:35:50,350 somehow part of this Union yang and they 947 00:35:54,540 --> 00:35:52,480 benefited from each other right despite 948 00:35:56,730 --> 00:35:54,550 what the slave might tell you from his 949 00:35:58,950 --> 00:35:56,740 own perspective right yeah so in those 950 00:36:00,690 --> 00:35:58,960 two elements of his philosophy that the 951 00:36:02,610 --> 00:36:00,700 state is God and then you just when you 952 00:36:04,500 --> 00:36:02,620 merge the state with the corporate you 953 00:36:07,110 --> 00:36:04,510 can also say that the corporations are 954 00:36:09,660 --> 00:36:07,120 God and that you know your work for 955 00:36:11,970 --> 00:36:09,670 slaves that they're supposed to be there 956 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:11,980 that it's a nice neat little unity in 957 00:36:14,940 --> 00:36:13,090 like you said it's good for society 958 00:36:16,830 --> 00:36:14,950 because it keeps everything running 959 00:36:18,540 --> 00:36:16,840 smoothly and you know if you just give 960 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:18,550 liberty and let everybody you know have 961 00:36:23,610 --> 00:36:21,130 their own transcendent logos basically 962 00:36:25,740 --> 00:36:23,620 that's gonna cause chaos and society 963 00:36:28,580 --> 00:36:25,750 will crumble so we have to control it in 964 00:36:31,890 --> 00:36:28,590 that way mm-hmm well said yes the 965 00:36:33,810 --> 00:36:31,900 dynamic of slave master and how their 966 00:36:35,210 --> 00:36:33,820 philosophy as well it's beneficial for 967 00:36:37,010 --> 00:36:35,220 the slave people want to be 968 00:36:39,349 --> 00:36:37,020 controlled exactly the kind of thing I 969 00:36:40,940 --> 00:36:39,359 was talking about and I wanted to ask 970 00:36:42,950 --> 00:36:40,950 you a little bit more about who's 971 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:42,960 responsible for some of this stuff today 972 00:36:48,050 --> 00:36:45,570 we hear the Gates Foundation so often 973 00:36:50,510 --> 00:36:48,060 but we have other players and other 974 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:50,520 tangled webs of nefarious connections 975 00:36:56,510 --> 00:36:54,450 what concerns you most what players are 976 00:36:59,300 --> 00:36:56,520 the ones we should be watching out for 977 00:37:03,320 --> 00:36:59,310 today people like Betsy DeVos I would 978 00:37:04,970 --> 00:37:03,330 assume yeah a lot of the key companies 979 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:04,980 that are pushing a lot of the 980 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:07,290 technologies it might not be some of the 981 00:37:11,839 --> 00:37:10,050 most well-known but certainly Betsy 982 00:37:14,210 --> 00:37:11,849 DeVos is one because not only is she 983 00:37:17,570 --> 00:37:14,220 right the Secretary of Education but she 984 00:37:19,670 --> 00:37:17,580 has a lot of shares and was once sitting 985 00:37:23,330 --> 00:37:19,680 on the board of a company called neuro 986 00:37:26,270 --> 00:37:23,340 core this is a biofeedback company that 987 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:26,280 basically also works with these digital 988 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:28,890 therapies for ADHD okay and this is a 989 00:37:33,859 --> 00:37:31,170 host of other companies that are in this 990 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:33,869 field called social-emotional learning 991 00:37:38,990 --> 00:37:36,450 okay and we can expand on that and 992 00:37:41,660 --> 00:37:39,000 another time but other companies that I 993 00:37:44,750 --> 00:37:41,670 would say are important contemporarily 994 00:37:47,210 --> 00:37:44,760 would be like IBM okay and it's got the 995 00:37:49,730 --> 00:37:47,220 Watson if you haven't seen commercials 996 00:37:51,859 --> 00:37:49,740 for this if you look at commercials it's 997 00:37:54,140 --> 00:37:51,869 essentially an AI program but it does 998 00:37:56,690 --> 00:37:54,150 everything from finance to security to 999 00:37:58,339 --> 00:37:56,700 education okay any pardons with Pearson 1000 00:37:59,170 --> 00:37:58,349 that's another one a big one Pearson 1001 00:38:01,910 --> 00:37:59,180 Education 1002 00:38:03,950 --> 00:38:01,920 Facebook Facebook is another one on 1003 00:38:06,339 --> 00:38:03,960 Facebook is developing virtual reality 1004 00:38:10,460 --> 00:38:06,349 and augmented reality technologies 1005 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:10,470 neural link which is Elon Musk's brain 1006 00:38:14,630 --> 00:38:12,810 computer interface company which I know 1007 00:38:17,240 --> 00:38:14,640 that it's got the prototypes ready but I 1008 00:38:19,700 --> 00:38:17,250 hadn't heard a story that he's saying it 1009 00:38:21,589 --> 00:38:19,710 should be commercially viable by the end 1010 00:38:24,260 --> 00:38:21,599 of this year so it's not just right 1011 00:38:25,820 --> 00:38:24,270 first he mentioned it on Joe Rogan then 1012 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:25,830 he showed you he did this presentation 1013 00:38:29,240 --> 00:38:27,450 and he showed you the actual device 1014 00:38:30,980 --> 00:38:29,250 hooked up to this giant computer that 1015 00:38:32,630 --> 00:38:30,990 sticks it in your head and now he's 1016 00:38:34,609 --> 00:38:32,640 saying that I guess we killed a by one 1017 00:38:36,770 --> 00:38:34,619 by the end of this year I was basically 1018 00:38:38,690 --> 00:38:36,780 a brain chip he's simpler way to say it 1019 00:38:41,190 --> 00:38:38,700 others that would be important would be 1020 00:38:43,049 --> 00:38:41,200 like the Gates Foundation 1021 00:38:46,140 --> 00:38:43,059 the Gates Foundation is a nonprofit 1022 00:38:47,910 --> 00:38:46,150 organization you know it's based on the 1023 00:38:49,589 --> 00:38:47,920 Microsoft fortune and by the way 1024 00:38:52,140 --> 00:38:49,599 Microsoft is another company it fits in 1025 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:52,150 here Gates Foundation I mean every 1026 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:54,490 chapter basically the Gates Foundation I 1027 00:38:58,380 --> 00:38:57,010 went through their grants you know I 1028 00:39:00,230 --> 00:38:58,390 went through them individually and look 1029 00:39:03,900 --> 00:39:00,240 for anything real Arden School Choice 1030 00:39:06,900 --> 00:39:03,910 vouchers adaptive learning software p20 1031 00:39:08,759 --> 00:39:06,910 council school-to-work all these things 1032 00:39:10,559 --> 00:39:08,769 and they've got tons of grants so every 1033 00:39:12,019 --> 00:39:10,569 chapter you'll find something about the 1034 00:39:15,690 --> 00:39:12,029 Gates Foundation the Gates Foundation 1035 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:15,700 what they do is essentially it's another 1036 00:39:20,759 --> 00:39:19,210 step in the history of how this whole 1037 00:39:23,130 --> 00:39:20,769 thing came about which is through 1038 00:39:25,799 --> 00:39:23,140 nonprofit organizations basically 1039 00:39:27,779 --> 00:39:25,809 funding not just the school system 1040 00:39:29,309 --> 00:39:27,789 itself and compulsory education but in 1041 00:39:31,579 --> 00:39:29,319 particular to stimulus-response 1042 00:39:33,150 --> 00:39:31,589 pedagogy and the workforce training 1043 00:39:35,430 --> 00:39:33,160 methodology and some of these 1044 00:39:37,710 --> 00:39:35,440 institutions include the Rockefeller 1045 00:39:39,569 --> 00:39:37,720 Foundation before he came up with his 1046 00:39:40,980 --> 00:39:39,579 Rockefeller Foundation he has several 1047 00:39:42,750 --> 00:39:40,990 different philanthropies besides that 1048 00:39:46,230 --> 00:39:42,760 the first one was the general education 1049 00:39:47,970 --> 00:39:46,240 board in the general education board one 1050 00:39:51,359 --> 00:39:47,980 of the people that sat on that was 1051 00:39:53,009 --> 00:39:51,369 Daniel quake Gilman okay and then also 1052 00:39:55,559 --> 00:39:53,019 it should be noted that Percy 1053 00:39:58,200 --> 00:39:55,569 rockefeller is a Bonesmen okay so both 1054 00:40:00,029 --> 00:39:58,210 Gilman and Rockefeller are essentially 1055 00:40:02,519 --> 00:40:00,039 Bonesmen families and both of them are 1056 00:40:05,130 --> 00:40:02,529 involved in the nonprofit funding of all 1057 00:40:06,720 --> 00:40:05,140 this stuff that torch kinda gets passed 1058 00:40:08,279 --> 00:40:06,730 to the Gates founded the Rockefeller 1059 00:40:10,529 --> 00:40:08,289 Foundation still does a lot the general 1060 00:40:12,839 --> 00:40:10,539 education board is no longer functioning 1061 00:40:15,450 --> 00:40:12,849 but the Gates Foundation really at least 1062 00:40:17,999 --> 00:40:15,460 in the public eye is really hooking up 1063 00:40:19,829 --> 00:40:18,009 the mantle of nonprofit funding I should 1064 00:40:21,870 --> 00:40:19,839 also mention the Ford Foundation is 1065 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:21,880 another one and another Bonesmen 1066 00:40:28,079 --> 00:40:23,650 associated with the Ford Foundation is 1067 00:40:29,370 --> 00:40:28,089 Oh Howard Herald how there it goes we 1068 00:40:30,029 --> 00:40:29,380 can't wanted to say Howard Hughes I'm 1069 00:40:33,749 --> 00:40:30,039 like a second 1070 00:40:37,319 --> 00:40:33,759 Harold how Gerald how the second man man 1071 00:40:40,230 --> 00:40:37,329 so much stuff and it really is 1072 00:40:42,690 --> 00:40:40,240 concerning me even just online schools 1073 00:40:44,519 --> 00:40:42,700 it's a simple way to remove the human 1074 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:44,529 component remove the teacher completely 1075 00:40:52,730 --> 00:40:48,970 and it is all going this crazy way and 1076 00:40:54,450 --> 00:40:52,740 the more you can get kids to adopt these 1077 00:40:57,349 --> 00:40:54,460 technologies in the class 1078 00:41:00,240 --> 00:40:57,359 because they must the more you can push 1079 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:00,250 transhumanist type agendas I mean not to 1080 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:01,930 mention just the simple fact that I 1081 00:41:06,690 --> 00:41:04,810 don't want my kids on an iPad in school 1082 00:41:09,180 --> 00:41:06,700 because of the screen addiction the way 1083 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:09,190 it rewires your brain chemistry for more 1084 00:41:14,339 --> 00:41:11,410 efficient marketing and the increased 1085 00:41:17,970 --> 00:41:14,349 EMF exposure I mean should fifty kids in 1086 00:41:19,980 --> 00:41:17,980 a classroom have these uh iPads you know 1087 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:19,990 right over the reproductive systems I'm 1088 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:22,570 not so sure they should and you know 1089 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:24,130 what can you do to get out of it and 1090 00:41:28,859 --> 00:41:25,690 that's the thing so as we're wrapping 1091 00:41:31,230 --> 00:41:28,869 this up I have heard you talk about the 1092 00:41:32,460 --> 00:41:31,240 book before and other interviews and how 1093 00:41:34,170 --> 00:41:32,470 you were gonna end it with this 1094 00:41:36,089 --> 00:41:34,180 transhumanist stuff that we were just 1095 00:41:39,270 --> 00:41:36,099 talking about and Chris is like whoa 1096 00:41:42,540 --> 00:41:39,280 whoa whoa you can't just you can't just 1097 00:41:44,490 --> 00:41:42,550 destroy a person's faith and in the 1098 00:41:48,599 --> 00:41:44,500 future I mean you got to give them some 1099 00:41:51,089 --> 00:41:48,609 hope and so just as you did in the book 1100 00:41:53,490 --> 00:41:51,099 we should naturally end with some kind 1101 00:41:55,829 --> 00:41:53,500 of solutions to this crazy nightmare 1102 00:41:58,560 --> 00:41:55,839 what would you advise people I mean you 1103 00:42:00,990 --> 00:41:58,570 are a teacher you're on the inside if 1104 00:42:03,030 --> 00:42:01,000 there's parents listening what would you 1105 00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:03,040 say to them that they should even put 1106 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:05,130 their attention to or even fight for 1107 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:08,770 okay cool so solutions I broke down into 1108 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:11,050 like one two three four five ship 1109 00:42:17,220 --> 00:42:14,530 numbers a five-point simplify as much as 1110 00:42:19,829 --> 00:42:17,230 possible program okay let me give the 1111 00:42:21,570 --> 00:42:19,839 overview of a first knob do the details 1112 00:42:25,170 --> 00:42:21,580 on each and I ran out of time on the 1113 00:42:27,020 --> 00:42:25,180 Opperman I'm gonna do it differently 1114 00:42:29,790 --> 00:42:27,030 this time which is okay the first one is 1115 00:42:31,349 --> 00:42:29,800 maintain public control and local 1116 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:31,359 control means to save your elected 1117 00:42:35,790 --> 00:42:33,490 school boards ok the second part is to 1118 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:35,800 abolish the psychological conditioning 1119 00:42:40,170 --> 00:42:38,170 method in the classroom that means not 1120 00:42:41,910 --> 00:42:40,180 just the cell technology is not a high 1121 00:42:43,589 --> 00:42:41,920 tech stuff but right stuff that you 1122 00:42:45,660 --> 00:42:43,599 mentioned right like the star and 1123 00:42:48,420 --> 00:42:45,670 detention punishment reward system or 1124 00:42:50,130 --> 00:42:48,430 the bail system to compartmentalize hey 1125 00:42:51,540 --> 00:42:50,140 we're thinking about this topic now when 1126 00:42:52,710 --> 00:42:51,550 the bell rings turn that off and now 1127 00:42:55,380 --> 00:42:52,720 let's only think about this other 1128 00:42:57,870 --> 00:42:55,390 subject that type of stuff the third 1129 00:43:00,960 --> 00:42:57,880 component is digital student privacy 1130 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:00,970 which means to either eliminate ban or 1131 00:43:05,730 --> 00:43:02,650 to at least highly restricted data 1132 00:43:07,650 --> 00:43:05,740 mining of students cuz I you know I'm 1133 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:07,660 not a Luddite look we're using this 1134 00:43:09,450 --> 00:43:08,050 technique 1135 00:43:11,130 --> 00:43:09,460 right now if there wasn't for this 1136 00:43:12,720 --> 00:43:11,140 internet and all this stuff I would add 1137 00:43:14,070 --> 00:43:12,730 a lot hard time right in the book and I 1138 00:43:16,700 --> 00:43:14,080 wouldn't be able to share it and sell it 1139 00:43:19,020 --> 00:43:16,710 like I am so you know I'm not saying 1140 00:43:21,630 --> 00:43:19,030 destroy the whole technology you know 1141 00:43:23,550 --> 00:43:21,640 bad tech I'm not saying that but we got 1142 00:43:26,970 --> 00:43:23,560 to find out if we're gonna use it at all 1143 00:43:28,530 --> 00:43:26,980 and used to be ethically so you know I 1144 00:43:30,930 --> 00:43:28,540 know that this type of tech you know it 1145 00:43:32,970 --> 00:43:30,940 has to do some kind of data gathering 1146 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:32,980 just to keep itself up game you know 1147 00:43:36,180 --> 00:43:35,050 meantime yeah obviously there's a limit 1148 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:36,190 there but when we start talking about 1149 00:43:40,110 --> 00:43:38,410 personal and student data it needs to be 1150 00:43:43,020 --> 00:43:40,120 stuff like if you're talking about 1151 00:43:44,970 --> 00:43:43,030 bio-data psychometric data this should 1152 00:43:47,130 --> 00:43:44,980 be stuff that's classified as a medical 1153 00:43:48,720 --> 00:43:47,140 record protected by HIPAA right 1154 00:43:50,970 --> 00:43:48,730 shouldn't be able to be trading it 1155 00:43:53,850 --> 00:43:50,980 around and making products off and you 1156 00:43:55,650 --> 00:43:53,860 know creating policy baseline okay to 1157 00:43:58,380 --> 00:43:55,660 the extent that some of that might have 1158 00:44:00,390 --> 00:43:58,390 to sit its way through to the extent 1159 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:00,400 that we want to you know use some of 1160 00:44:04,380 --> 00:44:02,170 these technologies we should at least 1161 00:44:06,330 --> 00:44:04,390 have a right to be forgotten this is a 1162 00:44:08,550 --> 00:44:06,340 law that certain states are looking at 1163 00:44:11,190 --> 00:44:08,560 and we're basically you know if you want 1164 00:44:13,470 --> 00:44:11,200 a company that collects your cookies or 1165 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:13,480 you can say hey I want you to get rid of 1166 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:15,370 that or I don't want this on the web and 1167 00:44:18,240 --> 00:44:16,810 well now we know this stuff can take its 1168 00:44:21,390 --> 00:44:18,250 own life once it gets out there but 1169 00:44:25,020 --> 00:44:21,400 right some Avenue work again locally and 1170 00:44:27,230 --> 00:44:25,030 individually we can control our data for 1171 00:44:30,510 --> 00:44:27,240 ourselves and not have other people 1172 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:30,520 using it for profit things like that all 1173 00:44:34,260 --> 00:44:32,410 right so those those are the first three 1174 00:44:36,990 --> 00:44:34,270 and then the last two basically have to 1175 00:44:39,150 --> 00:44:37,000 do with curriculum those first three are 1176 00:44:40,410 --> 00:44:39,160 more about method philosophy and 1177 00:44:42,180 --> 00:44:40,420 governance this year more about 1178 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:42,190 curriculum 1179 00:44:46,410 --> 00:44:44,650 so I want to go back to the Trivium and 1180 00:44:47,580 --> 00:44:46,420 the Trivium you know the classical 1181 00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:47,590 liberal arts you know we could add to 1182 00:44:51,780 --> 00:44:50,170 quadrivium in there but I think that the 1183 00:44:53,700 --> 00:44:51,790 ancients always did the Trivium before 1184 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:53,710 the quadrivium because the Trivium is a 1185 00:44:57,630 --> 00:44:55,690 study of the word quadrivium is tell you 1186 00:44:59,160 --> 00:44:57,640 of the number so you know you have to 1187 00:45:01,860 --> 00:44:59,170 have quality before quantity you can't 1188 00:45:03,930 --> 00:45:01,870 quantify nothingness right you know 1 or 1189 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:03,940 2 is an abstraction lets you attach it 1190 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:06,130 to something like weight height or the 1191 00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:08,170 other thing is you know most of the 1192 00:45:12,570 --> 00:45:10,050 world whether you're a scientist or not 1193 00:45:16,070 --> 00:45:12,580 language is the primary mode through 1194 00:45:19,350 --> 00:45:16,080 which we make our way through society so 1195 00:45:22,770 --> 00:45:19,360 the classical Trivium method had three 1196 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:22,780 parts okay that's grammar logic and 1197 00:45:26,210 --> 00:45:24,210 rhetoric 1198 00:45:28,820 --> 00:45:26,220 my book goes into detail about how those 1199 00:45:31,030 --> 00:45:28,830 are those terms and whatever you're 1200 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:31,040 thinking right now based on maybe your 1201 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:34,050 compulsory American education might be 1202 00:45:39,890 --> 00:45:37,530 very simplified or dumbed down versions 1203 00:45:41,780 --> 00:45:39,900 of what the classical philosophers would 1204 00:45:44,150 --> 00:45:41,790 have understood by it okay but it's 1205 00:45:45,890 --> 00:45:44,160 essentially the art of how to think 1206 00:45:47,660 --> 00:45:45,900 instead of what to think right general 1207 00:45:50,150 --> 00:45:47,670 grammar is the art of basically 1208 00:45:52,190 --> 00:45:50,160 identifying things giving them names and 1209 00:45:53,930 --> 00:45:52,200 that creates you know an inductive 1210 00:45:56,450 --> 00:45:53,940 process where you can find patterns 1211 00:45:58,460 --> 00:45:56,460 okay formal logic is basically where we 1212 00:45:59,900 --> 00:45:58,470 can deduce truth based on what we've 1213 00:46:02,180 --> 00:45:59,910 observed what we've named been 1214 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:02,190 identified okay and based on formal 1215 00:46:05,450 --> 00:46:03,810 logic right where you can centrally find 1216 00:46:06,829 --> 00:46:05,460 contradictions in our own files we can 1217 00:46:08,780 --> 00:46:06,839 find contradictions in our own thought 1218 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:08,790 and we can think for ourselves right and 1219 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:10,890 we can sift through all the data that's 1220 00:46:14,660 --> 00:46:12,570 out there not necessarily have to have 1221 00:46:16,670 --> 00:46:14,670 authority tell you stuff you know I 1222 00:46:19,310 --> 00:46:16,680 should maybe segue to emphasize it's not 1223 00:46:20,750 --> 00:46:19,320 in the booklet there is no better school 1224 00:46:22,730 --> 00:46:20,760 of learning than the school of 1225 00:46:24,770 --> 00:46:22,740 experience I know that Benjamin Franklin 1226 00:46:26,240 --> 00:46:24,780 says that it's an expensive school if 1227 00:46:28,700 --> 00:46:26,250 for fools you don't have any other 1228 00:46:30,710 --> 00:46:28,710 abstract knowledge or training outside 1229 00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:30,720 of that but dumping a bunch of 1230 00:46:36,380 --> 00:46:34,050 information into your head based on your 1231 00:46:38,359 --> 00:46:36,390 teacher or whatever the syllabus says 1232 00:46:40,730 --> 00:46:38,369 you need to remember and then just try 1233 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:40,740 to your rote memorizing that it's not 1234 00:46:44,750 --> 00:46:43,290 the same thing as having an 1235 00:46:47,329 --> 00:46:44,760 understanding where you can apply it in 1236 00:46:48,380 --> 00:46:47,339 your own daily life right now what 1237 00:46:50,750 --> 00:46:48,390 you're probably doing right now if 1238 00:46:52,130 --> 00:46:50,760 you're checking out this podcast so that 1239 00:46:54,829 --> 00:46:52,140 should be grounded though and things 1240 00:46:56,900 --> 00:46:54,839 like history and civics not social 1241 00:46:59,260 --> 00:46:56,910 studies ok social studies is like this 1242 00:47:02,960 --> 00:46:59,270 amorphous thing isn't grounded in any 1243 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:02,970 well first causes which is my last point 1244 00:47:08,510 --> 00:47:06,810 right it's a metaphysical curriculum so 1245 00:47:11,390 --> 00:47:08,520 we know history meaning right we should 1246 00:47:12,890 --> 00:47:11,400 know like the who what where when and 1247 00:47:14,720 --> 00:47:12,900 why of how we got here a lot of the 1248 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:14,730 stuff I talked about David just like 1249 00:47:18,740 --> 00:47:16,770 what we talked about with eugenics if 1250 00:47:20,510 --> 00:47:18,750 you want to know where we're going and 1251 00:47:22,099 --> 00:47:20,520 you know we're all on this river of time 1252 00:47:23,540 --> 00:47:22,109 we can't get off it and we're moving 1253 00:47:25,070 --> 00:47:23,550 forward together and we got to make 1254 00:47:26,510 --> 00:47:25,080 decisions about how it's going forward 1255 00:47:27,890 --> 00:47:26,520 well if you wanna know where we're going 1256 00:47:29,660 --> 00:47:27,900 we have to know where we came from and 1257 00:47:31,099 --> 00:47:29,670 if you could graph that on a line you 1258 00:47:32,329 --> 00:47:31,109 could see the angle and it's moving 1259 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:32,339 towards and you can see stuff like hey 1260 00:47:36,140 --> 00:47:34,530 this looks like that eugenics stuff from 1261 00:47:36,710 --> 00:47:36,150 before I don't think I want to do that 1262 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:36,720 okay 1263 00:47:39,950 --> 00:47:38,010 civics is giving you 1264 00:47:41,950 --> 00:47:39,960 specific tools to apply grammar logic 1265 00:47:44,240 --> 00:47:41,960 and rhetoric to actually wade through 1266 00:47:47,240 --> 00:47:44,250 the public sphere right and that means 1267 00:47:49,250 --> 00:47:47,250 being able to handle yourself right at 1268 00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:49,260 the local school board understanding 1269 00:47:53,300 --> 00:47:50,850 your state laws local laws you know 1270 00:47:55,310 --> 00:47:53,310 getting out there and being you know an 1271 00:47:57,050 --> 00:47:55,320 active citizen and activist that 1272 00:47:58,820 --> 00:47:57,060 understands you know how the law works 1273 00:48:00,380 --> 00:47:58,830 right you know I mean even you know 1274 00:48:03,230 --> 00:48:00,390 there's once upon a time when there was 1275 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:03,240 no bar system there was no jde you know 1276 00:48:06,890 --> 00:48:04,770 at Lincoln went to a law school I've 1277 00:48:09,050 --> 00:48:06,900 done pro se stuff in one you know so I 1278 00:48:12,050 --> 00:48:09,060 mean you know learning how the 1279 00:48:14,060 --> 00:48:12,060 mechanisms of our public system works 1280 00:48:16,340 --> 00:48:14,070 based on the history of how it came 1281 00:48:18,530 --> 00:48:16,350 about okay that needs to be grounded in 1282 00:48:21,140 --> 00:48:18,540 the last principle which is curriculum 1283 00:48:23,900 --> 00:48:21,150 of consciousness studies that basically 1284 00:48:26,750 --> 00:48:23,910 means metaphysics okay so what I came to 1285 00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:26,760 find is that you know one of the things 1286 00:48:31,010 --> 00:48:28,650 that's driving the transhumanist agenda 1287 00:48:32,510 --> 00:48:31,020 here is you know empiricism the 1288 00:48:34,460 --> 00:48:32,520 empirical method and then you know 1289 00:48:37,090 --> 00:48:34,470 leading into skepticism and then 1290 00:48:40,090 --> 00:48:37,100 performance identity 1291 00:48:43,810 --> 00:48:40,100 well the thing with empiricism is that 1292 00:48:46,030 --> 00:48:43,820 you can only measure so much right even 1293 00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:46,040 if you get 99 points in accuracy right 1294 00:48:49,450 --> 00:48:47,570 that's the nature of induction you get a 1295 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:49,460 sample you can never measure the total 1296 00:48:53,140 --> 00:48:51,530 you can only measure the sample so no 1297 00:48:54,190 --> 00:48:53,150 matter how accurate is there's always a 1298 00:48:56,830 --> 00:48:54,200 piece missing so you can never know the 1299 00:48:58,330 --> 00:48:56,840 absolute truth so that means at that 1300 00:49:00,430 --> 00:48:58,340 point you have to make a decision do you 1301 00:49:01,870 --> 00:49:00,440 want to be a pragmatist which leads to 1302 00:49:03,910 --> 00:49:01,880 performance identity which leads to 1303 00:49:05,710 --> 00:49:03,920 transhumanism which means that there is 1304 00:49:07,690 --> 00:49:05,720 no truth here identity there's nothing 1305 00:49:09,630 --> 00:49:07,700 grounded to what is a human being 1306 00:49:12,070 --> 00:49:09,640 you are no different than another 1307 00:49:13,570 --> 00:49:12,080 corporate material another commodity 1308 00:49:16,030 --> 00:49:13,580 that can be manufactured and produced 1309 00:49:17,950 --> 00:49:16,040 and interface with electronic devices 1310 00:49:20,140 --> 00:49:17,960 you're no different than that you're 1311 00:49:21,580 --> 00:49:20,150 just all that so much smush you can 1312 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:21,590 either take that wear out when you get 1313 00:49:25,210 --> 00:49:23,090 to that place where right your 1314 00:49:27,310 --> 00:49:25,220 empiricism reaches its limitations or 1315 00:49:30,130 --> 00:49:27,320 you can go back to the classical world 1316 00:49:31,720 --> 00:49:30,140 of metaphysics right New Age stuff that 1317 00:49:35,290 --> 00:49:31,730 gets in all sorts of like supernatural 1318 00:49:37,030 --> 00:49:35,300 stuff different layers of deities and 1319 00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:37,040 platonic forms and stuff it doesn't have 1320 00:49:41,650 --> 00:49:39,890 to be that complex it just means that 1321 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:41,660 there are some first principles some 1322 00:49:45,760 --> 00:49:43,970 first causes that we need to base our 1323 00:49:48,010 --> 00:49:45,770 empiricism on so that we don't go into 1324 00:49:50,050 --> 00:49:48,020 rabid scepticism and performance 1325 00:49:52,780 --> 00:49:50,060 identity this means stuff like 1326 00:49:55,390 --> 00:49:52,790 transcendent values okay like a priori 1327 00:49:57,130 --> 00:49:55,400 values meaning like everybody has the 1328 00:49:59,800 --> 00:49:57,140 right to make their own decisions about 1329 00:50:01,330 --> 00:49:59,810 how they want to live a priori meaning 1330 00:50:02,890 --> 00:50:01,340 prior to what I measure or not to 1331 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:02,900 measure and a bunch of people that go 1332 00:50:06,180 --> 00:50:04,490 oh you're deserving of something but 1333 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:06,190 you're not cuz I didn't measure you 1334 00:50:11,590 --> 00:50:08,810 before I measure it before I see or 1335 00:50:13,060 --> 00:50:11,600 observe somebody I can say yes you have 1336 00:50:14,530 --> 00:50:13,070 value in that you have the right to 1337 00:50:16,930 --> 00:50:14,540 making decisions about how you want to 1338 00:50:18,550 --> 00:50:16,940 live that's based on stuff like natural 1339 00:50:21,130 --> 00:50:18,560 law which comes from these metaphysical 1340 00:50:23,170 --> 00:50:21,140 terms like the Greeks had two logos the 1341 00:50:24,700 --> 00:50:23,180 Chinese had the dow the hindus had the 1342 00:50:26,980 --> 00:50:24,710 earth the you know a layer that will 1343 00:50:28,420 --> 00:50:26,990 become the Dharma and Buddhism if you go 1344 00:50:31,270 --> 00:50:28,430 back to the Persians they had the ASSA 1345 00:50:34,510 --> 00:50:31,280 and these are all ideas that reality is 1346 00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:34,520 grounded in truth and that this truth is 1347 00:50:39,580 --> 00:50:36,650 transcendent and that based on that 1348 00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:39,590 truth you can actually know things a 1349 00:50:43,510 --> 00:50:41,570 priori and that you can deduce things 1350 00:50:45,820 --> 00:50:43,520 and put things in their proper order you 1351 00:50:47,290 --> 00:50:45,830 can have right living in other words the 1352 00:50:49,570 --> 00:50:47,300 golden rule right if we were all 1353 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:49,580 basically put here by the same principle 1354 00:50:52,570 --> 00:50:50,330 we're 1355 00:50:54,990 --> 00:50:52,580 which puts us in a unified order and 1356 00:50:56,950 --> 00:50:55,000 none of us asked to be here 1357 00:50:58,870 --> 00:50:56,960 transcendently we ended up here then we 1358 00:51:00,580 --> 00:50:58,880 all are on an equal playing ground we 1359 00:51:01,810 --> 00:51:00,590 all have the same right to make her own 1360 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:01,820 decisions and this is the philosophy 1361 00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:03,770 that should guide how we're gonna play 1362 00:51:09,490 --> 00:51:05,330 with this technology if we're gonna mess 1363 00:51:12,310 --> 00:51:09,500 with it wow man that is such a great 1364 00:51:15,810 --> 00:51:12,320 breakdown of some of the solutions and 1365 00:51:18,970 --> 00:51:15,820 I'm with you there's definitely a lot of 1366 00:51:20,470 --> 00:51:18,980 logistical infrastructural things like 1367 00:51:23,350 --> 00:51:20,480 the first few bullet points you 1368 00:51:25,900 --> 00:51:23,360 mentioned there and then yes the last 1369 00:51:29,350 --> 00:51:25,910 two are the things we really can bring 1370 00:51:30,790 --> 00:51:29,360 into our kids lives firsthand I mean 1371 00:51:33,490 --> 00:51:30,800 let's assume there are a lot of parents 1372 00:51:36,220 --> 00:51:33,500 out there listening who have kids in the 1373 00:51:38,770 --> 00:51:36,230 grade school pipeline now they probably 1374 00:51:41,020 --> 00:51:38,780 can't do much about that the kids have 1375 00:51:43,020 --> 00:51:41,030 to go to school they're probably working 1376 00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:43,030 a job so they can't do a home schooling 1377 00:51:48,490 --> 00:51:44,210 situation 1378 00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:48,500 are there specific tools for say 1379 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:51,650 developing sound metaphysics or Trivium 1380 00:51:56,140 --> 00:51:54,290 tools that are geared for younger 1381 00:51:58,120 --> 00:51:56,150 children that you know about that people 1382 00:52:00,100 --> 00:51:58,130 could maybe start implementing at home 1383 00:52:03,340 --> 00:52:00,110 to offset some of the damage of the 1384 00:52:04,660 --> 00:52:03,350 public school system well so you know I 1385 00:52:06,430 --> 00:52:04,670 actually want to work on that I actually 1386 00:52:08,130 --> 00:52:06,440 want to put something together I like 1387 00:52:11,710 --> 00:52:08,140 that you know I've been really really 1388 00:52:13,390 --> 00:52:11,720 ring my own curriculum you know in my 1389 00:52:16,690 --> 00:52:13,400 own academic training I didn't get all 1390 00:52:19,450 --> 00:52:16,700 that I went down the opposite of the 1391 00:52:20,590 --> 00:52:19,460 classical Trivium the best way I could 1392 00:52:23,050 --> 00:52:20,600 put it would be a philosophy called 1393 00:52:24,610 --> 00:52:23,060 deconstruction that's largely what I got 1394 00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:24,620 so I had to work my way back to this 1395 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:26,210 kind of on my own using all the things 1396 00:52:30,100 --> 00:52:27,650 I'm describing right 1397 00:52:32,290 --> 00:52:30,110 I largely taught myself this based on 1398 00:52:33,790 --> 00:52:32,300 you know digging around got Urban's 1399 00:52:36,220 --> 00:52:33,800 logos media and you know he's got some 1400 00:52:37,990 --> 00:52:36,230 good resources you can use Chris likes 1401 00:52:41,020 --> 00:52:38,000 Trivium by the wooden books is the 1402 00:52:44,050 --> 00:52:41,030 publisher there's one by Miriam Joseph 1403 00:52:45,820 --> 00:52:44,060 that I have it's a little dense I think 1404 00:52:48,670 --> 00:52:45,830 is a good crash course if you want to 1405 00:52:50,710 --> 00:52:48,680 just like classical learning and history 1406 00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:50,720 of philosophy and metaphysics and stuff 1407 00:52:55,750 --> 00:52:52,850 like that there is a guy not in the 1408 00:52:57,940 --> 00:52:55,760 conspiracy stuff or nothing I know of he 1409 00:52:59,680 --> 00:52:57,950 teaches high school at a classical 1410 00:53:02,530 --> 00:52:59,690 school and he's got these little 1411 00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:02,540 lectures his name drew score I love his 1412 00:53:05,650 --> 00:53:03,770 stuff because it's for a high 1413 00:53:08,020 --> 00:53:05,660 school class but it's dense and so like 1414 00:53:10,390 --> 00:53:08,030 you call it like it's accessible for 1415 00:53:11,350 --> 00:53:10,400 anybody I like to you'll put him on 1416 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:11,360 sometimes this when I'm trying to 1417 00:53:15,700 --> 00:53:13,010 refresh like bullet points on a flies 1418 00:53:18,550 --> 00:53:15,710 for up on foggy and you can click those 1419 00:53:20,110 --> 00:53:18,560 and just watch those his Christian guy 1420 00:53:22,450 --> 00:53:20,120 you know so he's gonna give you history 1421 00:53:23,890 --> 00:53:22,460 religion too but you know that's 1422 00:53:25,300 --> 00:53:23,900 important stuff too that should be part 1423 00:53:27,370 --> 00:53:25,310 of what we study and you know we can 1424 00:53:29,410 --> 00:53:27,380 have a discussion about what are the 1425 00:53:31,780 --> 00:53:29,420 first causes of these these things like 1426 00:53:34,300 --> 00:53:31,790 the Dow OCS Lewis you know refer to it 1427 00:53:36,390 --> 00:53:34,310 as the diagnose Christian Christians 1428 00:53:39,070 --> 00:53:36,400 would maybe rather prefer the term logos 1429 00:53:41,020 --> 00:53:39,080 so those are some good online sources 1430 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:41,030 you can play with there's a I think the 1431 00:53:45,580 --> 00:53:42,890 wooden books is a rather simplified 1432 00:53:47,650 --> 00:53:45,590 version and hopefully one of these days 1433 00:53:51,059 --> 00:53:47,660 I'm gonna put some resources on my 1434 00:53:53,549 --> 00:53:51,069 website school world order dot info 1435 00:53:55,499 --> 00:53:53,559 and maybe make a book out of it but yeah 1436 00:53:56,789 --> 00:53:55,509 yeah can I add something else because 1437 00:53:58,319 --> 00:53:56,799 you mentioned parents and I should say 1438 00:53:59,969 --> 00:53:58,329 this to them another important part of 1439 00:54:01,109 --> 00:53:59,979 this is that parents need to take care 1440 00:54:03,359 --> 00:54:01,119 of their kids parents need to teach 1441 00:54:04,890 --> 00:54:03,369 their kids I don't have kids so I don't 1442 00:54:07,170 --> 00:54:04,900 know what's your parents on how to be 1443 00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:07,180 parents but that is one of the main 1444 00:54:12,359 --> 00:54:08,890 things there because see a lot of 1445 00:54:13,319 --> 00:54:12,369 parents think that oh well your teachers 1446 00:54:15,029 --> 00:54:13,329 are the experts and so are the 1447 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:15,039 administrate so I can kind of defer and 1448 00:54:18,660 --> 00:54:16,690 then if they've got really fancy 1449 00:54:20,459 --> 00:54:18,670 technology technology is the smartest 1450 00:54:22,769 --> 00:54:20,469 stuff in the world right technology is 1451 00:54:25,140 --> 00:54:22,779 infallible so if I got experts with 1452 00:54:27,599 --> 00:54:25,150 technology I can kind of file out and 1453 00:54:28,709 --> 00:54:27,609 let my kid do their own thing and I 1454 00:54:30,839 --> 00:54:28,719 don't have to go to the school board 1455 00:54:32,789 --> 00:54:30,849 meetings and things like that but that's 1456 00:54:34,199 --> 00:54:32,799 not you know I mean what you said is 1457 00:54:35,459 --> 00:54:34,209 walking parents you do on your own well 1458 00:54:37,199 --> 00:54:35,469 the parents can do on their own is 1459 00:54:39,209 --> 00:54:37,209 instill what are the values you want the 1460 00:54:40,650 --> 00:54:39,219 kids to have do you have values you want 1461 00:54:42,509 --> 00:54:40,660 kids to have do you don't want other 1462 00:54:43,979 --> 00:54:42,519 people to replace them with all right I 1463 00:54:45,839 --> 00:54:43,989 hope that they're based on things like 1464 00:54:47,279 --> 00:54:45,849 the golden rule you know what I mean and 1465 00:54:50,009 --> 00:54:47,289 you know the other thing is you see it 1466 00:54:51,479 --> 00:54:50,019 in the everyday world go to the grocery 1467 00:54:53,999 --> 00:54:51,489 store or something how often do you see 1468 00:54:55,529 --> 00:54:54,009 the kids you know misbehaving or there's 1469 00:54:57,059 --> 00:54:55,539 just hyper or something they give them 1470 00:54:58,799 --> 00:54:57,069 the device they give them the device 1471 00:55:00,630 --> 00:54:58,809 because it's like you get out of my way 1472 00:55:03,209 --> 00:55:00,640 and go mess with this like you're 1473 00:55:05,939 --> 00:55:03,219 letting the devices and basically the 1474 00:55:08,519 --> 00:55:05,949 government be the parent and you can't 1475 00:55:09,689 --> 00:55:08,529 do that if you can't do that everything 1476 00:55:12,949 --> 00:55:09,699 I said doesn't matter 1477 00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:12,959 amen men amen I really love these 1478 00:55:16,829 --> 00:55:15,249 subjects because I'm kind of at that 1479 00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:16,839 stage of life where I'm either gonna 1480 00:55:22,380 --> 00:55:19,930 have kids or I'm not and probably I am 1481 00:55:24,959 --> 00:55:22,390 and so a lot of these things come up and 1482 00:55:26,579 --> 00:55:24,969 I think about how extreme do I want to 1483 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:26,589 go given the fact that I already have 1484 00:55:32,779 --> 00:55:28,690 the job I have so this stuff is gonna be 1485 00:55:35,130 --> 00:55:32,789 in their sphere of influence and I think 1486 00:55:37,589 --> 00:55:35,140 homeschooling feels like too much 1487 00:55:39,359 --> 00:55:37,599 pressure so I also think maybe I should 1488 00:55:41,219 --> 00:55:39,369 send my kids to a public school because 1489 00:55:43,410 --> 00:55:41,229 I want them to understand you have to 1490 00:55:46,410 --> 00:55:43,420 deal with all different kinds of people 1491 00:55:49,079 --> 00:55:46,420 and then I can offset that at home with 1492 00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:49,089 various techniques of my own I mean I've 1493 00:55:53,069 --> 00:55:51,249 routinely said that I think the single 1494 00:55:56,670 --> 00:55:53,079 most important thing I could teach my 1495 00:55:59,069 --> 00:55:56,680 kids is to optimize their expression and 1496 00:56:01,769 --> 00:55:59,079 language so that they can get through a 1497 00:56:04,069 --> 00:56:01,779 lot of various situations by expressing 1498 00:56:07,009 --> 00:56:04,079 themselves succinctly and act 1499 00:56:08,779 --> 00:56:07,019 and this seems kind of similar to the 1500 00:56:11,509 --> 00:56:08,789 Trivium of course broken up into grammar 1501 00:56:14,479 --> 00:56:11,519 logic and rhetoric and even in the book 1502 00:56:16,489 --> 00:56:14,489 you say these are not subjects in the 1503 00:56:18,829 --> 00:56:16,499 classical sense at all they're methods 1504 00:56:20,599 --> 00:56:18,839 of dealing with subjects and I think 1505 00:56:22,789 --> 00:56:20,609 that's really wise I mean that's really 1506 00:56:24,679 --> 00:56:22,799 the crux of what I was trying to get to 1507 00:56:26,709 --> 00:56:24,689 with with those kind of thoughts is like 1508 00:56:30,439 --> 00:56:26,719 I just want to teach my kids how to 1509 00:56:32,449 --> 00:56:30,449 navigate reality without necessarily 1510 00:56:34,309 --> 00:56:32,459 taking them out of reality I don't want 1511 00:56:35,959 --> 00:56:34,319 to have the weird kid who doesn't know 1512 00:56:37,669 --> 00:56:35,969 how to communicate with other people 1513 00:56:40,339 --> 00:56:37,679 because they went to some airy-fairy 1514 00:56:41,779 --> 00:56:40,349 Southern California school you know that 1515 00:56:44,299 --> 00:56:41,789 I mean there's concerns there I also 1516 00:56:46,189 --> 00:56:44,309 don't want them to have to be forced to 1517 00:56:48,049 --> 00:56:46,199 get certain vaccinations to attend 1518 00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:48,059 public school I don't want them to have 1519 00:56:52,189 --> 00:56:50,130 these technologies in the classroom that 1520 00:56:54,979 --> 00:56:52,199 are doing active harm regardless of what 1521 00:56:57,559 --> 00:56:54,989 I teach them at home so these are real 1522 00:57:00,079 --> 00:56:57,569 concerns but I've always kind of thought 1523 00:57:02,269 --> 00:57:00,089 the best approach is one foot in one 1524 00:57:04,759 --> 00:57:02,279 foot out because if you're all the way 1525 00:57:05,749 --> 00:57:04,769 out then you know good luck and if 1526 00:57:09,679 --> 00:57:05,759 you're all the way in you're also 1527 00:57:11,959 --> 00:57:09,689 screwed and I guess I would also ask you 1528 00:57:14,390 --> 00:57:11,969 if you were a parent what do you think 1529 00:57:17,539 --> 00:57:14,400 of these things like home schooling or 1530 00:57:20,029 --> 00:57:17,549 Montessori schools or these other types 1531 00:57:22,009 --> 00:57:20,039 of schools that obviously the stuff 1532 00:57:24,799 --> 00:57:22,019 we're talking about isn't bleeding into 1533 00:57:28,429 --> 00:57:24,809 them necessarily but they also seemed so 1534 00:57:30,529 --> 00:57:28,439 far off the reservation that when your 1535 00:57:32,239 --> 00:57:30,539 kid gets through some of that they might 1536 00:57:33,949 --> 00:57:32,249 have a hard time integrating into our 1537 00:57:37,999 --> 00:57:33,959 general society they might feel like 1538 00:57:42,319 --> 00:57:38,009 they were sold some weird fringe 1539 00:57:44,419 --> 00:57:42,329 ideologies that necessarily mesh that 1540 00:57:47,630 --> 00:57:44,429 well with the general population is it's 1541 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:47,640 it's a weird thing to balance but what 1542 00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:49,410 are your thoughts on just other forms of 1543 00:57:55,279 --> 00:57:52,170 schooling that are not public school but 1544 00:57:57,019 --> 00:57:55,289 places we would send our kids okay yeah 1545 00:57:58,549 --> 00:57:57,029 I like what you said I really think it's 1546 00:58:00,410 --> 00:57:58,559 a good philosophy one foot in one foot 1547 00:58:02,179 --> 00:58:00,420 out in other words like this is the 1548 00:58:03,769 --> 00:58:02,189 world we live in right I mean like here 1549 00:58:05,870 --> 00:58:03,779 one foot in one foot out right now 1550 00:58:07,459 --> 00:58:05,880 you're posting on YouTube and thing I 1551 00:58:09,679 --> 00:58:07,469 mean yeah you're kind of feeding the 1552 00:58:11,419 --> 00:58:09,689 beast at one level but we're also right 1553 00:58:13,759 --> 00:58:11,429 we're not we're talking against to be so 1554 00:58:15,380 --> 00:58:13,769 it mean it's kind of like that me the 1555 00:58:17,750 --> 00:58:15,390 wife and I can't have kids so but if we 1556 00:58:19,370 --> 00:58:17,760 could you know I think I would guard 1557 00:58:21,350 --> 00:58:19,380 do what you're saying and I think I 1558 00:58:24,110 --> 00:58:21,360 would keep in public school you know 1559 00:58:26,330 --> 00:58:24,120 could you do homeschooling wrong with 1560 00:58:29,330 --> 00:58:26,340 that either if you do homeschooling 1561 00:58:32,540 --> 00:58:29,340 please be sure that you don't apply for 1562 00:58:34,610 --> 00:58:32,550 tax credits for tuition or anything like 1563 00:58:36,290 --> 00:58:34,620 a voucher or education savings accounts 1564 00:58:37,940 --> 00:58:36,300 because as I mentioned that's largely 1565 00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:37,950 going to mean that you have to follow 1566 00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:40,170 the exes standards the federal standards 1567 00:58:46,070 --> 00:58:42,930 and if you do that largely what they're 1568 00:58:48,590 --> 00:58:46,080 gonna do is make you use not just the 1569 00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:48,600 methods and the outcomes but down the 1570 00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:50,730 pipe it'll be that you have to use the 1571 00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:52,410 software you have to use the adapter 1572 00:58:55,820 --> 00:58:54,210 learning software you have to also have 1573 00:58:58,280 --> 00:58:55,830 some biofeedback stuff right so that you 1574 00:59:00,230 --> 00:58:58,290 have to meet all those requirements and 1575 00:59:02,690 --> 00:59:00,240 you know most homeschool is by the way 1576 00:59:04,700 --> 00:59:02,700 doing they are online and they do 1577 00:59:08,300 --> 00:59:04,710 incorporate much of the stuff we're 1578 00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:08,310 talking okay so that's the end of the 1579 00:59:12,470 --> 00:59:09,690 date I don't think there's a whole lot 1580 00:59:14,090 --> 00:59:12,480 difference in terms of curriculum right 1581 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:14,100 unless you were to go totally private or 1582 00:59:18,050 --> 00:59:15,810 parochial then it is very different 1583 00:59:20,180 --> 00:59:18,060 because then you do get classical stuff 1584 00:59:21,860 --> 00:59:20,190 you will get formal logic you will get 1585 00:59:25,030 --> 00:59:21,870 quadrant and trim you will get history 1586 00:59:27,010 --> 00:59:25,040 of philosophy you'll get all that stuff 1587 00:59:28,780 --> 00:59:27,020 I don't know a lot about Montessori 1588 00:59:30,130 --> 00:59:28,790 School 1589 00:59:32,620 --> 00:59:30,140 you know my wife has mentioned it before 1590 00:59:36,370 --> 00:59:32,630 and I just never it never came up in the 1591 00:59:37,900 --> 00:59:36,380 research I don't know what its statuses 1592 00:59:40,300 --> 00:59:37,910 I think it's a magnet school but I don't 1593 00:59:42,220 --> 00:59:40,310 know public private what its status is 1594 00:59:45,010 --> 00:59:42,230 my only concerns about that would be 1595 00:59:48,100 --> 00:59:45,020 like the governance issues but I mean in 1596 00:59:49,660 --> 00:59:48,110 terms of curriculum unless it's at 1597 00:59:50,980 --> 00:59:49,670 parochial school you know like a 1598 00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:50,990 religious school or Catholic school or 1599 00:59:54,599 --> 00:59:52,450 something like that 1600 00:59:56,870 --> 00:59:54,609 you're largely any pretty much the same 1601 00:59:59,490 --> 00:59:56,880 creaking there's ways where people can 1602 01:00:01,170 --> 00:59:59,500 there's some flexibility there but it's 1603 01:00:02,670 --> 01:00:01,180 largely the same I should say you know 1604 01:00:05,910 --> 01:00:02,680 same level by the way you know there are 1605 01:00:09,030 --> 01:00:05,920 also classical schools that are charter 1606 01:00:10,740 --> 01:00:09,040 and public private I haven't looked 1607 01:00:12,630 --> 01:00:10,750 deeply in those when I would be suspect 1608 01:00:15,810 --> 01:00:12,640 to those two because I imagine that even 1609 01:00:18,510 --> 01:00:15,820 if they can maintain a lot of the 1610 01:00:21,839 --> 01:00:18,520 traditional curriculum they still have 1611 01:00:24,300 --> 01:00:21,849 to fit in some of the other new methods 1612 01:00:25,920 --> 01:00:24,310 and so you know with the classical 1613 01:00:28,020 --> 01:00:25,930 learning you're probably gonna get a lot 1614 01:00:31,770 --> 01:00:28,030 of social justice type you know social 1615 01:00:33,750 --> 01:00:31,780 studies mixed in with it I think public 1616 01:00:36,690 --> 01:00:33,760 school or the home school is what I 1617 01:00:37,650 --> 01:00:36,700 would personally do and it's easy to say 1618 01:00:40,620 --> 01:00:37,660 that when you don't actually have to 1619 01:00:42,510 --> 01:00:40,630 worry about what's happening at otally 1620 01:00:44,190 --> 01:00:42,520 academically abstract you know in terms 1621 01:00:46,349 --> 01:00:44,200 of policies and stuff it's a different 1622 01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:46,359 game when you got you know your little 1623 01:00:52,109 --> 01:00:48,490 boy or girl and all the emotions edge to 1624 01:00:53,940 --> 01:00:52,119 it yes well I mean honestly as scary as 1625 01:00:56,910 --> 01:00:53,950 it can be as daunting as it can be to 1626 01:00:58,740 --> 01:00:56,920 kind of weigh all this stuff a part of 1627 01:01:02,089 --> 01:00:58,750 me also thinks if you're just thinking 1628 01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:02,099 about it you're already so far ahead of 1629 01:01:07,349 --> 01:01:04,450 most of the people in this society so 1630 01:01:10,109 --> 01:01:07,359 even if you're giving it concern don't 1631 01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:10,119 let it completely you know destroy you 1632 01:01:14,780 --> 01:01:12,970 don't let it depress you just realize 1633 01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:14,790 that you're already ahead of the game 1634 01:01:19,109 --> 01:01:17,410 even considering these things and 1635 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:19,119 talking with your partner about them so 1636 01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:21,010 I don't know that gives me a little bit 1637 01:01:25,260 --> 01:01:23,770 of a silver lining but man so I just 1638 01:01:26,849 --> 01:01:25,270 want to add this real quick too because 1639 01:01:28,589 --> 01:01:26,859 you know that you said the one foot in 1640 01:01:30,839 --> 01:01:28,599 one foot out whichever option you take 1641 01:01:32,940 --> 01:01:30,849 that's the important part which is you 1642 01:01:34,620 --> 01:01:32,950 are in charge or the parent so you say 1643 01:01:36,450 --> 01:01:34,630 would you learn today and you could say 1644 01:01:37,980 --> 01:01:36,460 my dad would tell me stuff like hey why 1645 01:01:39,030 --> 01:01:37,990 didn't they tell you this or why didn't 1646 01:01:40,620 --> 01:01:39,040 they tell you that and tell you about 1647 01:01:42,150 --> 01:01:40,630 what we did the Native American city 1648 01:01:43,859 --> 01:01:42,160 every day I come home there was 1649 01:01:45,210 --> 01:01:43,869 something that was like Oh like I'm 1650 01:01:48,089 --> 01:01:45,220 supposed to question what they taught me 1651 01:01:50,190 --> 01:01:48,099 right and so if you at least do that 1652 01:01:52,260 --> 01:01:50,200 like you said another part that Golden 1653 01:01:54,780 --> 01:01:52,270 Rule is we all have the same you know I 1654 01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:54,790 am not one of these precision IDI IQ 1655 01:01:58,200 --> 01:01:56,170 people I really think that you know 1656 01:02:00,450 --> 01:01:58,210 people said I'm smart I really think 1657 01:02:02,069 --> 01:02:00,460 it's just me being as honest as I can 1658 01:02:03,270 --> 01:02:02,079 with what I don't know and just say hey 1659 01:02:04,460 --> 01:02:03,280 why don't I know it and I'm trying to 1660 01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:04,470 figure out why I don't know 1661 01:02:08,930 --> 01:02:06,690 and we all have pretty much the same 1662 01:02:11,599 --> 01:02:08,940 capacity to be honest with ourselves and 1663 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:11,609 in that regard you are just as important 1664 01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:14,130 as the professor with the PhD and I'll 1665 01:02:18,170 --> 01:02:16,050 tell you how many times you know I go to 1666 01:02:20,060 --> 01:02:18,180 vert I'll read stuff you're synthesizing 1667 01:02:21,589 --> 01:02:20,070 probably one of the people at the 1668 01:02:23,870 --> 01:02:21,599 department's no philosophy problem say 1669 01:02:25,970 --> 01:02:23,880 hey this is right my understanding this 1670 01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:25,980 right and it'll your check out or it 1671 01:02:29,900 --> 01:02:27,810 won't but when I start to then 1672 01:02:31,310 --> 01:02:29,910 extrapolate out into other topics and 1673 01:02:33,109 --> 01:02:31,320 make connections they don't know what 1674 01:02:34,010 --> 01:02:33,119 I'm talking about they only know what 1675 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:34,020 they've been taught in their 1676 01:02:40,130 --> 01:02:36,810 specialization that is the product of 1677 01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:40,140 any institutional compulsory corporate 1678 01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:42,050 whatever any institutional education 1679 01:02:48,050 --> 01:02:46,410 system the opposite of that is this 1680 01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:48,060 Trivium method where you think on your 1681 01:02:51,500 --> 01:02:49,770 own you ask your own questions you think 1682 01:02:52,670 --> 01:02:51,510 something and then you think about what 1683 01:02:54,349 --> 01:02:52,680 you thought and you what does that make 1684 01:02:56,839 --> 01:02:54,359 sense is there a contradiction and what 1685 01:02:58,790 --> 01:02:56,849 I thought and you can weed that out and 1686 01:03:01,190 --> 01:02:58,800 you can instill that spirit in your 1687 01:03:04,220 --> 01:03:01,200 child regardless of which system you 1688 01:03:06,740 --> 01:03:04,230 pick boom I love it yes I agree with you 1689 01:03:09,050 --> 01:03:06,750 had no stock in eugenics but even if 1690 01:03:12,770 --> 01:03:09,060 there was some truth to eugenics there's 1691 01:03:16,970 --> 01:03:12,780 always outliers there's always people 1692 01:03:19,030 --> 01:03:16,980 who buck the trends you know these a lot 1693 01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:19,040 of times these are you know 1694 01:03:25,250 --> 01:03:21,890 distributions on a grand scale so 1695 01:03:27,380 --> 01:03:25,260 there's no value in teaching people from 1696 01:03:29,750 --> 01:03:27,390 a base level that they're less valuable 1697 01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:29,760 than other people it's obviously better 1698 01:03:33,410 --> 01:03:31,050 to teach everyone they're the same 1699 01:03:35,359 --> 01:03:33,420 because this particular person might be 1700 01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:35,369 one of those outliers even if there was 1701 01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:37,890 a basis and truth which obviously we're 1702 01:03:42,980 --> 01:03:40,290 saying there isn't so regardless it's 1703 01:03:44,510 --> 01:03:42,990 better to just ignore that stuff or at 1704 01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:44,520 least actually not ignore it because 1705 01:03:48,710 --> 01:03:46,530 that's how it creeps in but be vigilant 1706 01:03:53,630 --> 01:03:48,720 Lee against an opposed to some of that 1707 01:03:56,480 --> 01:03:53,640 kind of stuff hmm awesome well John this 1708 01:03:58,700 --> 01:03:56,490 has been super enlightening we've had 1709 01:04:00,829 --> 01:03:58,710 several guests talk about how the top 1710 01:04:02,780 --> 01:04:00,839 layers of the elite are sort of weeding 1711 01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:02,790 out the middle layers the management 1712 01:04:06,829 --> 01:04:04,890 class the ones who implement the agendas 1713 01:04:08,990 --> 01:04:06,839 and instead they're just going straight 1714 01:04:12,290 --> 01:04:09,000 to technology to do that because it'll 1715 01:04:15,170 --> 01:04:12,300 do it way more flawlessly and this seems 1716 01:04:18,350 --> 01:04:15,180 to be as true in education as it is 1717 01:04:19,550 --> 01:04:18,360 anywhere and before we go 1718 01:04:21,140 --> 01:04:19,560 anything else to tell the people about 1719 01:04:23,090 --> 01:04:21,150 getting the book checking out the 1720 01:04:24,380 --> 01:04:23,100 website or following up on some of this 1721 01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:24,390 stuff following what you're gonna be 1722 01:04:29,780 --> 01:04:27,450 working on next yeah so you know the 1723 01:04:31,430 --> 01:04:29,790 website is school world order dot info 1724 01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:31,440 there's a link to the book trying days 1725 01:04:35,690 --> 01:04:32,970 website you can get it straight from 1726 01:04:37,340 --> 01:04:35,700 there you gotta count with Amazon or 1727 01:04:39,730 --> 01:04:37,350 it's on there it's on Barnes and Nobles 1728 01:04:41,870 --> 01:04:39,740 any of the major distributors I'm now 1729 01:04:43,640 -->

01:04:57,030 one of the first things I published was 1738 01:05:01,250 --> 01:04:59,790 some of the stuff about Jose Delgado who 1739 01:05:03,260 --> 01:05:01,260 started the brain computer interfaces 1740 01:05:04,670 --> 01:05:03,270 hice connected skull and bones so do all 1741 01:05:06,230 --> 01:05:04,680 my Twitter that articles there maybe 1742 01:05:07,700 --> 01:05:06,240

01:05:14,030 --> 01:05:11,730 website also I should mention it's got 1746 01:05:16,580 --> 01:05:14,040 2,000 citations which is are a hundred 1747 01:05:18,140 --> 01:05:16,590 pages of citations if you're somebody 1748 01:05:19,310 --> 01:05:18,150 that likes to check citations if you 1749 01:05:21,830 --> 01:05:19,320 don't hey where do you get that from 1750 01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:21,840 while

01:05:27,390 follow along with the notes and most of 1754 01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:28,710 them are online sources even the 1755 01:05:31,340 --> 01:05:30,210 journals most stuff's online today you 1756

01:06:11,609 and boom goes the dynamite dear people 1773 01:06:17,160 --> 01:06:14,319 school world order hell of a book hell 1774 01:06:19,829 --> 01:06:17,170 of a topic John is a hell of a guy 1775 01:06:21,359 --> 01:06:19,839 I am definitely happy to have gotten 1776 01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:21,369 this one out to you next 1777 01:06:25,890 --> 01:06:23,650 of course it's probably pretty obvious 1778 01:06:27,870 --> 01:06:25,900 at this point but this is another 1779 01:06:30,029 --> 01:06:27,880 interview that was recorded several 1780 01:06:32,339 --> 01:06:30,039 weeks back when we were still in the old 1781 01:06:35,009 --> 01:06:32,349 world but I didn't really feel the need 1782 01:06:37,349 --> 01:06:35,019 to preempt the show to say that this 1783 01:06:40,589 --> 01:06:37,359 time because it is a topic that's a 1784 01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:40,599 little more connected anyway in fact 1785 01:06:44,789 --> 01:06:42,130 John messaged me just the other day 1786 01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:44,799 about how obviously we didn't talk about 1787 01:06:50,729 --> 01:06:46,930 this coronavirus thing in the interview 1788 01:06:53,069 --> 01:06:50,739 but so much of it is very relevant to 1789 01:06:56,819 --> 01:06:53,079 this current technocratic lockdown and 1790 01:07:00,569 --> 01:06:56,829 the big plan to connect your biometrics 1791 01:07:03,660 --> 01:07:00,579 to a form of ID and of course get them 1792 01:07:05,779 --> 01:07:03,670 while they're young is always in play so 1793 01:07:08,249 --> 01:07:05,789 this is a timely one and it's relevant 1794 01:07:11,309 --> 01:07:08,259 it's just weird to think about the fact 1795 01:07:13,049 --> 01:07:11,319 that when I recorded this I thought that 1796 01:07:15,720 --> 01:07:13,059 night I could still take my wife out to 1797 01:07:18,269 --> 01:07:15,730 dinner I did want to add though that 1798 01:07:20,069 --> 01:07:18,279 John wrote a really great piece and I 1799 01:07:22,859 --> 01:07:20,079 think I'm gonna link it to you in the 1800 01:07:24,749 --> 01:07:22,869 show notes that adds a coronavirus 1801 01:07:28,140 --> 01:07:24,759 context to everything we talked about 1802 01:07:29,910 --> 01:07:28,150 today it's about two pages but let me 1803 01:07:32,519 --> 01:07:29,920 just get it started for you he writes 1804 01:07:34,769 --> 01:07:32,529 the Department of Education 'he's new 1805 01:07:36,859 --> 01:07:34,779 proposed rules for federal regulations 1806 01:07:39,839 --> 01:07:36,869 of distance education and innovation 1807 01:07:42,299 --> 01:07:39,849 will effectively open the floodgates for 1808 01:07:44,130 --> 01:07:42,309 online education corporations to put 1809 01:07:46,289 --> 01:07:44,140 public brick-and-mortar schools out of 1810 01:07:47,700 --> 01:07:46,299 business by streamlining adaptive 1811 01:07:50,039 --> 01:07:47,710 learning and other artificial 1812 01:07:51,900 --> 01:07:50,049 intelligence technologies that replace 1813 01:07:55,349 --> 01:07:51,910 human instructors with competency-based 1814 01:07:57,299 --> 01:07:55,359 education software which provide direct 1815 01:08:00,120 --> 01:07:57,309 assessment through subscription-based 1816 01:08:02,749 --> 01:08:00,130 courseware that data-mine students 1817 01:08:06,359 --> 01:08:02,759 cognitive behavioral algorithms to 1818 01:08:08,279 --> 01:08:06,369 personalize digital lessons very 1819 01:08:10,890 --> 01:08:08,289 synergistic with what we talked about 1820 01:08:12,630 --> 01:08:10,900 today and it makes sense right now that 1821 01:08:14,999 --> 01:08:12,640 we're scared to gather in a room 1822 01:08:17,669 --> 01:08:15,009 together everything goes online and 1823 01:08:20,510 --> 01:08:17,679 every concern raised in today's show 1824 01:08:22,620 --> 01:08:20,520 comes to fruition that much faster and 1825 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:22,630 it's also fitting that the 1826 01:08:27,780 --> 01:08:25,810 same people are involved so this is a 1827 01:08:30,419 --> 01:08:27,790 pretty great one to me I love coming 1828 01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:30,429 back to the education system we've had 1829 01:08:36,180 --> 01:08:33,130 some awesome episodes on it but adding 1830 01:08:39,030 --> 01:08:36,190 this technocracy context is exactly how 1831 01:08:41,430 --> 01:08:39,040 to further these conversations and I 1832 01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:41,440 even said in the episode that I'd send 1833 01:08:44,459 --> 01:08:43,330 my kids to public school so that they 1834 01:08:47,729 --> 01:08:44,469 learn they have to deal with all sorts 1835 01:08:50,669 --> 01:08:47,739 of people but as we've navigated the few 1836 01:08:53,519 --> 01:08:50,679 short weeks since recording I have to 1837 01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:53,529 say that my wife and I have changed our 1838 01:08:59,129 --> 01:08:56,770 minds most likely if it's gonna be all I 1839 01:09:02,189 --> 01:08:59,139 pad Zand metal detectors and vaccines 1840 01:09:04,559 --> 01:09:02,199 it's no longer worth it and when I look 1841 01:09:07,110 --> 01:09:04,569 into these Montessori or Waldorf schools 1842 01:09:10,079 --> 01:09:07,120 even though I run the risk of raising a 1843 01:09:13,590 --> 01:09:10,089 weirdo kid the vaccination rate at these 1844 01:09:16,260 --> 01:09:13,600 schools is like 7% and they use no 1845 01:09:19,050 --> 01:09:16,270 electronics in the classroom so I think 1846 01:09:21,180 --> 01:09:19,060 about this and the types of parents I 1847 01:09:23,280 --> 01:09:21,190 would meet and I'm a lot more 1848 01:09:25,709 --> 01:09:23,290 comfortable that I'd be entering into a 1849 01:09:28,019 --> 01:09:25,719 local network of families that are more 1850 01:09:29,999 --> 01:09:28,029 likely to be like-minded and helpful in 1851 01:09:32,809 --> 01:09:30,009 a crisis like the one we're having I 1852 01:09:36,539 --> 01:09:32,819 think a lot of us have realized lately 1853 01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:36,549 that we love our friends and family but 1854 01:09:40,999 --> 01:09:38,770 it's isolating to be around too many 1855 01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:41,009 people who don't share our 1856 01:09:45,959 --> 01:09:43,210 conspiratorial thoughts on something 1857 01:09:48,209 --> 01:09:45,969 like this if we're entering a world 1858 01:09:50,399 --> 01:09:48,219 where people shame each other for 1859 01:09:53,729 --> 01:09:50,409 gathering together or neighbors start 1860 01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:53,739 calling the cops on little parties or we 1861 01:09:58,410 --> 01:09:56,050 start getting harassed or even beaten 1862 01:10:00,810 --> 01:09:58,420 for not wearing a face mask in public I 1863 01:10:02,820 --> 01:10:00,820 think we all feel like we can't just 1864 01:10:05,220 --> 01:10:02,830 overlook these differences that we have 1865 01:10:08,149 --> 01:10:05,230 with the people we love when [\h__\h] is 1866 01:10:10,979 --> 01:10:08,159 getting as Extreme as it's getting I 1867 01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:10,989 obviously don't even have kids yet and 1868 01:10:16,320 --> 01:10:13,090 I'm not saying I would cut anyone out of 1869 01:10:18,689 --> 01:10:16,330 my life not at all but it's just hard to 1870 01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:18,699 go on pretending that we can just avoid 1871 01:10:24,300 --> 01:10:21,489 talking about conspiracy stuff in our 1872 01:10:26,419 --> 01:10:24,310 friend groups anymore like we could when 1873 01:10:30,510 --> 01:10:26,429 it was just some abstract philosophical 1874 01:10:33,120 --> 01:10:30,520 difference if that makes any sense and I 1875 01:10:35,220 --> 01:10:33,130 guess I'm just retracting what I said in 1876 01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:35,230 maybe the second hour where I mentioned 1877 01:10:38,520 --> 01:10:36,010 that 1878 01:10:42,299 --> 01:10:38,530 I tend to want to have one foot in and 1879 01:10:44,009 --> 01:10:42,309 one foot out well that might not apply 1880 01:10:46,560 --> 01:10:44,019 to this new reality where they need a 1881 01:10:49,259 --> 01:10:46,570 pound of flesh for you to participate in 1882 01:10:52,470 --> 01:10:49,269 their systems it's getting too expensive 1883 01:10:55,200 --> 01:10:52,480 for me and I'm trying not to speak in 1884 01:10:57,509 --> 01:10:55,210 such absolute terms I never want to be 1885 01:11:00,450 --> 01:10:57,519 overly dramatic like this is gonna last 1886 01:11:02,250 --> 01:11:00,460 forever and we're all screwed I don't 1887 01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:02,260 know I don't know anything more than you 1888 01:11:09,810 --> 01:11:05,650 do but a lot of us feel like we've lived 1889 01:11:12,299 --> 01:11:09,820 a life of overhyped cable news [\h__\h] 1890 01:11:16,470 --> 01:11:12,309 we've her little conspiratorial 1891 01:11:19,410 --> 01:11:16,480 fear-based sagas like Jade helm so our 1892 01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:19,420 first reaction should be to be skeptical 1893 01:11:25,740 --> 01:11:22,690 but this got real a lot faster than I 1894 01:11:28,410 --> 01:11:25,750 think any of us realize and so now we 1895 01:11:30,870 --> 01:11:28,420 have to hold both ideas in our head is 1896 01:11:33,450 --> 01:11:30,880 this just another hysteria fake-out 1897 01:11:37,379 --> 01:11:33,460 situation or are they really making a 1898 01:11:39,629 --> 01:11:37,389 play this time but he's away John really 1899 01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:39,639 killed it today his book is great and 1900 01:11:44,790 --> 01:11:42,010 he's a teacher so he's used to speaking 1901 01:11:49,109 --> 01:11:44,800 at length but man I wish I had his 1902 01:11:51,180 --> 01:11:49,119 energy level just not wound that way but 1903 01:11:54,029 --> 01:11:51,190 I'm also not surprised that he's big on 1904 01:11:56,790 --> 01:11:54,039 martial arts a Taekwondo black belt is 1905 01:11:59,669 --> 01:11:56,800 nothing to sneeze at and not learning to 1906 01:12:02,509 --> 01:11:59,679 fight or play guitar are probably my two 1907 01:12:05,370 --> 01:12:02,519 biggest regrets in life so kudos to him 1908 01:12:07,350 --> 01:12:05,380 he also mentioned not loving social 1909 01:12:08,819 --> 01:12:07,360 media but he has created a Twitter 1910 01:12:11,549 --> 01:12:08,829 account so that he can talk to people 1911 01:12:14,279 --> 01:12:11,559 about the book and all that look him up 1912 01:12:16,560 --> 01:12:14,289 under taoist professor it will be in the 1913 01:12:21,089 --> 01:12:16,570 show notes as well I'm surprised that 1914 01:12:22,500 --> 01:12:21,099 wasn't taken but hey he got it and if 1915 01:12:25,169 --> 01:12:22,510 you like the first free hour of the show 1916 01:12:28,109 --> 01:12:25,179 the second hour was a serious deep dive 1917 01:12:29,850 --> 01:12:28,119 into eugenics and man does he know a lot 1918 01:12:31,740 --> 01:12:29,860 about the history and the players who 1919 01:12:33,750 --> 01:12:31,750 have tried to bring aspects of it back 1920 01:12:36,299 --> 01:12:33,760 and she warned it into society at many 1921 01:12:38,069 --> 01:12:36,309 different points in the timeline but we 1922 01:12:41,700 --> 01:12:38,079 also talked about that drive to tie 1923 01:12:44,100 --> 01:12:41,710 genetic data to a student ID and also 1924 01:12:46,890 --> 01:12:44,110 digitizing healthcare databases to be 1925 01:12:48,629 --> 01:12:46,900 merged with that student data and we 1926 01:12:49,649 --> 01:12:48,639 through several other conspiratorial 1927 01:12:51,569 --> 01:12:49,659 logs on the 1928 01:12:53,549 --> 01:12:51,579 fire as well you know the drill the 1929 01:12:56,669 --> 01:12:53,559 higher
