”the purpose of schools was never education at all”

Here it is in writing.

The Six Important Functions of Secondary Education

The Adjustive or Adaption Function : Establishment of fixed habits of reaction to authority. The role of the schools is to establish fixed habits of reaction to authority. This, of course, precludes critical judgment completely. It also pretty much destroys the idea that useful or interesting material should be taught, because you can’t test for reflexive obedience until you know whether you can make children learn, and do, foolish and unnatural things.
The Integrating or Conformity Function : Develop like mindedness, unity in thought and habit. This should well be called “the conformity function,” because its intention is to make children as alike as possible, the hive mind. People who conform are predictable and follow the herd, this is of great use to those who wish to harness and manipulate a large labour force.
The Diagnostic and Directive Function : Label children to mark them in the class structure. School is meant to determine each student’s proper social role. This is done by logging evidence mathematically and anecdotally on cumulative records. As in “your permanent record.” Yes, we all have one.
The Differentiating Function : Divide and conquer strategy to immobilise in social structure. Once their social role has been “diagnosed,” children are to be sorted by role and trained only so far as their destination in the social machine merits – teach them not one step further.
The Selective Function : Preservation of the favoured races.(Darwin) This refers not to human choice at all but to Darwin’s theory of natural selection as applied to what he called “the favoured races.” In short, the idea is to help things along by consciously attempting to improve the breeding stock. Schools are meant to tag the unfit – with poor grades, remedial placement, and other punishments – clearly enough that their peers will accept them as inferior and effectively bar them from the reproductive sweepstakes. That’s what all those little humiliations from year seven onward were intended to do: wash the dirt down the drain.
The Propaedeutic Function : Grooming of those in higher classes to manage the lower classes. The societal system implied by these rules will require an elite group of caretakers. To that end, a small fraction of the children will be taught how to manage and to watch over and control a population deliberately dumbed down, unable to critically think or reason, in order that government authority is unchallenged and corporations might never want for obedient labour.

@Charles_in_Charge AI already solved protein folding and bested the world's greatest Go players so I'd say it passed your test... years ago.
@Ghislaine They didn't use a crappy consumer LLM to solve protein folding, drug discovery will require similarly specialized code.

The unique value proposition of old brick and mortar pharma is regulatory capture, but money changes everything.

Look how fast Elon bent the GOP to his will.
GOP official account is posting racist beaner memes and you're blackpilling?
@NoDoxGregBrady Democrats being pro-invader, GOP mocking them for it.
Oh no these future lawyers and doctors are done. Sorry it's not funny at all they all need to be executed!

Andrew Torah’s latest BS.

“No AI/bot accounts allowed”

Gab is full of automated bot accounts that post AI generated snowy barns, and flat earth reply bots.

“Owned and operated by Christians”

Andrew Torba’s faggot brother is a Gab mod.

A reusable SpaceX Starship booster coming in for a landing. The Starship booster is the size of both the Saturn V S-1C and S-II stages combined.

Those Disney Channel direct to video sequels to their massive hit feature films were a clue to how they would treat Star Wars.

Lucas, for all his faults, jealously guarded the sacred canonical timeline, not allowing any comics, novels, games or other emphemeral apocrypha to touch on the prequel era until he tackled it himself. The Thrawn trilogy existed because his plan was to never make episodes 7, 8 and 9.

Disney treated canonical episodes the way they treat Tinkerbell CG features. 'No time to rewrite, get that shit out ASAP!'
@judgedread @elonmusk Twatter is loaded with j-pills at the moment. It's actually pretty fun to watch. There's a huge hell thread on there educating Elon after he stated (and I paraphrase) "It is strange that jews are doing things that are anti-White, since they are White, too."
If I answered you on Twitter your employees would ban me.

It's the jews, spaceman.

Elon's SpaceX Falcon 9 & Starlink:

Falcon 9 booster B1097 lands for its 2nd time, after launching Starlink group 11-39 from Vandenberg, CA.
The highly precise maneuverable droneship landing trajectory of a 🇺🇸 Falcon 9 booster is similar to that of the 🇷🇺 Kinzhal hypersonic missile. Except the Falcon 9 booster slows down for a soft landing, instead of a hard landing. B1097 did its stage separation at Mach 7.
