Mal Education - System Design - Should Be VS Is

<b>[KeLP] "The more you learn, the less you know ..."</b>

I'm not so sure this is true in general, but when the subject is Right vs. Wrong or Good vs. Evil I can get on board.

<b>I don't want to know anything."</b>

So, you want to learn everything.

<b>LB: Accurate communication is ridiculously difficult.</b>
You can say that again!
"Accurate communication is ridiculously difficult."

When I posted this, I was thinking about the root cause of bullying behaviour: the "process" of finding one's place in the tribe's pecking order. I infer that you thought I was talking about making the "hyper education" system into a "structured ritual". Now I think I understand your reaction.

The keyboard on my computer is randomly skipping characters when I type. This makes it very painful to compose responses. When the new computer arrives, I hope to follow up on the above postings.

Also, I think we need another thread: Mal Education - bullying.

Sept 27, 2013: This has been done and I have made a copy of all the "bullying" posts in this thread and posted them to "Mal Education - Bullying".

That's a good suggestion. It will happen soon.

What about the golden advice: get the board out of your eye before doing remodeling?

You might want to re-think that phrasing."</b>

Proposed re-wording: 'Do not treat others differently than they want to be treated'.

My intent:<ul>It does not command me to treat you at all. But if I do must not violate your wishes.</ul>
You want to be treated as a god. If I interface with you at all, I must treat you as a god. So I chose to not interface with you. I'm not NOT treating you as anything, including a god.

Hmm. As long as I am at liberty to ignore you, I think this will work.

But I want to not be ignored, and I want your liberty dependent on me.

You are in violation, as you are treating me differently than I want.

The more you learn, the less you know--I don't want to know anything.
