    I mean… yeah and so? Public schools exist specifically to create a baseline of knowledge and experience in the population. It’s part of a social contract that says, “by the time they reach adulthood, a person should be able to read, write, do math, and not want to burn everything down or kill people.”

    Those values are shared by most of the world. It’s not surprising that schools reinforce those things, because that’s very specifically what they were created for. The alternative would be what? Not have schools?
