One would think teachers would be speaking up about what they contend with every day in terms of the cultural nonsense that controls the mindsets of their students and prevents actual education from displacing media mind control.
In my former career as a teacher, it was more evident than the noses on my students' faces that their minds were not their own - from their pretend self-images to their consumerized and peer-pressured shallow rebel personalities.
I know there are political/union reasons why teachers affiliate themselves with so-called liberal causes - such as freedom of expression for wealthy Hollywood-based causes...
Well, that's probably it. According to old-style sixties' liberalism one doesn't criticize what pretends to be socially rebellious - instead one forms classic liberal alliances with it...
In any event, as you know, I'm a niche-content producer who presents a lot of erotic and iconoclastic content. I do my bit for social responsibility by taking no action toward mass-marketing or distribution. I know my place, you might say - and it is not in mainstream media. Unfortunately, most of my creative friends and colleagues have no such restraint.
So conventional categories do not do us well in this move toward realignment for the sake of global sanity. What we are contending with at the moment is a great deal of predictable obfuscation by those who either refuse to focus on the complexities of the issue or simply choose not to because they are either in denial or believe we are threatening their "guilty pleasures."
Nothing could be farther from the truth.
There is just no reason at all why our guilty pleasures need to be broadcast to millions of people who do not desire them in their faces - and who don't want them used to sell every product under the sun...
