Hey guys, I just thought of a brilliant idea, why don't we let children learn whatever the hell they want and form their own opinions instead of force feed them bullshit from either side? Because I've got to tell you, I've been on the receiving end of that and it's exceptionally unpleasant when morons tell you to learn something or accept it without giving any reasoning behind it.

Yeah, THERE is a sure-fire way to destroy society...
Let's produce a generation of people whose skills completely do not match societies demand.
You're reasoning from a very privileged position. Not all humans on earth can do just what they like because the whole thing would collapse.
It is not something you could do without brutal consequences.

Yes, i know these things.
I'm just telling you that these are elitist ideas as it is unrealistic to let all of humanity develop along these lines. So for most people on earth this is a bullshit idea that won't bring food in the mouths of their families.
It's a nice way for the elites to stay elite, but it is not a way to transform society. Society would collapse.
