[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No young people are smarter than they are given credit for, if not for the indoctrination in American schools we would be seeing it here as well. [/quote]

Interesting. Some people are America  blaming schools and educators, which I find interesting.  I have heard that language before — “indoctrination” in schools. IRL  .

Where does that language or theory come from?

I heard Jordan Peterson talk about the over influence and over-therapy in kids. ie kids are being directed to therapists too much in the US (he explained it in a snazzy video). I can actually buy that.  But Where is this blaming schools thing coming from?   Is this in a study or survey that I missed? [/quote]

I think it just always existed.
Think about it, the whole history course is now about how white people exploited all kinds of non white people.

I d k, man. My boys are in public school. They are decent critical thinkers. Sure, I emphasized checking their sources and the speakers— but the teachers REALLY emphasized critical thinking. They make fun of it when the teachers go too far - or when a teacher is taped reading the actual text of an American classic (and the brats take it out and post it everywhere of context bc they hate her).  They are critical thinkers. That’s not indoctrination, it my experience. Yes they are being exposed much wider volumes of stuff - much more than me. (I also think I had deeper knowledge of some areas). It’s not the schools… imo[/quote]

Critical thinking is only applied to “safe” issues in schools. 
What kind of critical thinking is allowed with the issue of trans or race? I think very little.
