| So in the second episode, they go to school. | |
| And the school is hell. | |
| The school is hell. | |
| You've got teachers snarling at students. | |
| Students bullying each other. | |
| You have teachers... | |
| Snapping at the children and only playing videos of lessons, not even teaching directly. | |
| You have inconsequential, boring, useless, pointless, brain rot, empty habit, garbage neuron nothing burgers being hurled at these kids in slow motion digital mind frack. | |
| The teachers... | |
| Have no particular capacity to manage their own emotions. | |
| The females are syrupy and sentimental. | |
| The males are aggressive and escalate in general. | |
| And it's hell. | |
| So, the children, what are they taught? | |
| Well, what they're not taught, It's how to think. | |
| They're not taught how to think. | |
| They're not taught how to reason. | |
| They're not taught how to analyze. | |
| And they don't seem to have any modeled better behavior as a whole. | |
| Like emotional behavior. | |
| People with sort of maturity and self-restraint and so on, right? | |
| The teachers are just universally impatient. | |
| And I think everyone's had that experience in school where, whether it's teacher burnout or something like that, but the teachers who... | |
| They don't care. | |
| They don't care. | |
| They're hostile. | |
| They view the kids as enemies. | |
| It's rough. | |
| I certainly remember. | |
| I remember teachers like that, just escalating, burnt out, tense, stressed, aggressive, on the edge, there too long, not happy to be there, trapped. | |
| They feel trapped. | |
| I think they feel trapped. | |
| Maybe they are. | |
| So, to me, the real essence of adolescence is an absolute condemnation of the school system. | |
| That the students are bullied, and they're bullied by each other, the teachers are bullies, and there's no education going on. | |
| It's just a holding pen of semi-cucked insanity for years and years and years. | |
| Nobody wants to be there, nobody's enjoying it. | |
| I mean, I didn't get a massive amount of how to think. | |
| But there were some. | |
| There was definitely some. | |
| Definitely some. | |
| There were some debates, some, you know, challenging questions, some arguments, some principles floating | |
| Okay. | |
| But it's all in the second episode. | |
| I mean, the dad has a real temper, for sure. | |
| And the dad says how he was, you know, beaten by his own father, and he said he'd never do that to his kids, and he didn't, although obviously he would get angry and get loud. | |
| And as it was memorably pointed out in the show, he tore down a shed because he was angry about | |
| And, of course, that doesn't make a massive amount of sense to me that the father who was violently beaten by his own father is not a murderer, | |
| murderer, but his son, who | |
| does not hit, becomes a murderer. | |
| I have some significant questions. | |
| For me, just sort of psychologically and so on, it really doesn't make a whole lot of sense. | |
| It really does not make a whole lot of sense. | |
| And I think a lot of it has to do with the push for censorship, right? | |
| The push for censorship that, you know, ordinary, nice, you know, though quirky kids and all of that, well, they're just online and they just get radicalized. | |
| Just get radicalized. | |
| Things just go kind of crazy. | |
| They fall down rabbit holes. | |
| They red pill the 80-20 rule. | |
| That's repeated a couple of times. | |
| Jimmy says, yes, my wife is a schoolteacher and the crap she has to push. | |
| Insane. | |
| She's completely done. | |
| Yeah, it's rough, man. | |
| Very rough. | |
| rough indeed. | |
| So, I mean, this is part of the kind of dystopian stuff that's going on in the UK at the moment, where, what, are they arresting 20 people a day for social media posts? | |
| Yeah, so this idea that Young boys in particular are just these kind of powder kegs, and they just, you know, they, as the parents say at the end, right, like, we thought he was here, he was in his room, we thought he was safe, we got him the computer. | |
| And the idea that somebody can be talked into murder, like, I don't know, maybe there's some, I don't really know much about the dark web or whatever, but maybe there's really awful creepy stuff on there, but... | |
| That the idea that you're average, not particularly tech-savvy little boy is going to just fall down a rabbit hole, get radicalized, and stab a girl 14 times. | |
| I don't really think that's how... | |
| I mean, I'm obviously not a psychologist. | |
| Pretty sure that's not how murderous personalities work. | |
| Thank you. | |
| Thank you. | |
| I don't think that's how those kinds of murderous personalities work at all. | |
| I think it requires a lot of violence early on, a lot of brutal violence early on, which does not seem to be the case with this kid at all. | |
| A lot has been said about the boy's acting, and it is, of course, incredible. | |
| I mean, the kid is just an amazing actor. | |
| The nice kids getting seriously corrupted by the internet narrative may be a preamble for online censorship. | |
| Yeah, I mean, I think it's justification at the moment, which is why they're pushing this stuff in schools. | |
| It is saying, well, unless we gain control of these narratives on the internet, we're just going to end up with a bunch of, you know, stabby boys roaming around. | |
| So, yeah, that's, I think, one of the reasons why it went the way that it did and why it's being pushed so much, right? | |
| But, yeah, if you're watching it, really look in detail at the second episode and what's going on in that school. | |
| That school is hell. |
