MORE ON GEOGRAPHIC IGNORANCE
Interesting offline conversation about american ignorance. Yes, we are ignorant. But ignorance is a geographic necessity. Yes we are ignorant of our policies. But then, we have the best disinformation system in the world making the truth opaque to us. Yes we are ignorant, because we have a tragic education system that values eliminating the problem of diversity that preserves the political system over the education of a labor force capable of competing in a post-european world.
Our geographic ignorance is forgivable – it’s not valuable. Our policy ignorance is something that should make us angry – it is valuable. Our educational ignorance is something that should cause us to revolt – it’s necessary for our survival.
What we have that no one else has is total saturation in entrepreneurship, innovation, the scientific method, and heroism.
This is enough to allow the upper classes to compete against the rest of the world, but it is not enough to allow our middle forces and labor forces to compete against the rest of the world.
We need better education or we need to start impaling everyone in the administration of public education on spikes until we run out of bodies. I’ve been to both the Northwest and Canada. We’re never gonna run out of spikes.
