Im a deadbeat half the time and the most ambitious person ever the other half 😭

[ParkerClements-jbcu]

Schools: excuse me, but those kinds of children don't know how to throw a ball so they're not important.

[helio]

Sounds dumb that school is supposed somehow do that 🤷‍♂️

[epiphysiscerebri]

That's not ambition, that's poverty

[wasntwas]

The syatem needs to do better than test that ask for fucking HOTKEYS for exel.
Im not joking, this was an acual big test i had to deal with, and it had multiple questions about hotkeys.

This is really true! We have such a narrow definition of intelligence and what is considered "smart" but we should praise other skills and talents as well

[epiphysiscerebri]

Also if your parents dont push you to do this, you wont do it.

[MrBacon-oukw]

They’d need to invest a lot more money in the system to make this happen. You can’t expect a teacher who have to simultaneously manage 30 children to be able to do things like this

Me watching this while having good grades but is glued to the screen 💀

[alexjunokas]

Completely disagree it’s the student job to figure out what they are passionate about not the teachers. Teachers job is to help and teach the student how to reach or do whatever they want. If you were a deadbeat student as u put it. It not the teachers fault it’s yours hate to break it to you.

Used to think he was smart. But the more shorts I watch of him saying stupid shit like this makes me think otherwise. Always somebody’s else fault but yours.

I was philosophical i questioned gods and beliefs but in the process neglected my grades but i didn't care i wanted to know what really made the world tick from a young age so i studied about magic an myth gods and spirits and all these things came up as bull shit so i started to study people and nature i still do but i went into music because that was never something i like doing rather a compulsion music has been my passion even before i started learning to play

[monkek]

1) this following the lines of, ”we got the money why not help.” 2) not ambitious it’s obligation or to do something before consequences.

dude got a great mind but i think he’s been given too many chances to speak his mind “on the spot”

[ae_frosty]

The school system is built on a foundation of labour all the government wants is to have you learn nothing essential for a truely successful life, while preparing you to start in the workforce building things for them and pay taxes to them.

[graciegirl]

Honestly at this point if they US would give the scho system a fraction of what they give their weapons department then we would have the best school system in the world

[KhaoticDeterminism]

as a disabled person…

find it weird that ppl view someone’s value based on 1 metric

everyone is entitled to the same respect

but that’s their culture

they won’t change

[sirilluminarthevaliant]

This is legit Boy Scouts. He is describing boy scouts

[Monster-bxmq]

What’s the point in trying if my generation won’t be able to own a home anyways

[eaglethehulk]

Or just teach the kids to read and do math

[JayAndNightASMR]

Would only work in smaller clases where teachers could get to know student's better. But that would require investment

[MysticWorldsStudios]

This is probrably a good thing knowing how much china respected its historical artifacts in the past
