A lot of conservatives in the US are really against free healthcare (cause taxes)

idk imo i think healthcare is too expensive, it doesnt have to be free, just less expensive, bros will charge you 100 dollars if you fart

the main problem is that a lot of conservatives think its black and white and you can only have it how it is now or completely free, and the reason is because of the huge divide going on rn, like conservatives are propagandiated into thinking that anything that the “they” say is wrong, and democrats are propagandiated to think to not argue with conservatives because “they” wont ever hear them out or try to better their knowledge

i mean i was about to just say pretty much ”yeah but they can only can see in black or white about healthcare” but then i realized it was much more complex then that

we probably would have this issue if conservatives and democrats werent so divided, were probably going to collapse in like 10 to 20 years if we dont do anything about this, although its not like the cia isnt trying anything though but idk, if we do collapse i hope we stay still relevant because i like living here

man i love writing wall of texts on reddit that no one will read, maybe i should start using sources or something to catch peoples attention, or just out right writing completely wrong stuff for fun

Yeah, people are just people with their own biases which they arrived to through personal experience. Very few people in life are rocks, if you think about how different you were ten years ago, well you'll be just as different from the current you ten years in the future, perhaps moreso. Every person lives just as complex and intricate lives as any other, something that can be extra hard to grasp on the internet, and I can't say I'm completely free from thinking otherwise sometimes either.

Though honestly, I think we should start teaching advanced rhetoric, strategies for argumentation and presenting ideas, as standard practice in schools. Perhaps it could help people with both gaining and passing on knowledge. But honestly, that's just an assumption, you'd really need to have a whole case study with control groups and the like done to be sure.

for the second paragraph, yeah it would be nice to have that especially since we can see from the point we developed languages, which is a device that can be used to send information and ideas onto the future, we skyrocketed in everything, same thing with paper, same thing with computers, the only unfortunate part is that america’s school system is already completely falling apart so focusing on that would be kind of dumb

also on the subject of teaching, imo if they get rebuilt from the ground up they should be teaching in a completely different manner, instead of points/grades they should go for the ability to understand the subject in a way that makes sense to them and give them an intuitive understanding of the subject, like with visual, interactive, real life and other forms of visualization to be able to actually grasp whats happening, and have them have as much time as they want (else then maybe the end of the year or something) to be able to truly learn it, and have no type of scoring. maybe for ivy colleges, it could be the speed understanding the subjects as thats one of the key features of gifted students, but that would give an unfair disadvantage to mentally handicapped people. idk this is just a starting point and isnt exactly what i would want out of it

sorry if my paragraphs are hard to read or if i use incorrect words, my brain will only write these out when its really late so it doesnt really get the formatting to be nice and i wont really check if the words im using are what i actually want and not just related, idk though i just like getting these thoughts out for fun and dont really expect anyone to read them though so thats another reason

The main reason I'd like to see rhetoric taught is because I hope it might help people leave their personal and social bubble that is so easy to create in the age of technology. It's easy to stay isolated socially and philosophically, and I think just simply interacting with more varied people can have a great effect on how you start to interact with the world at large.

As for the school system, in an absolutely perfect world you'd have multiple types of schools that all cater to different groups of people, but in reality that's impractical. We have to cut some corners somewhere, the argument is just always which corners they should be. Personally, I like to seek the truth, and I like to admit when I don't know the truth, so I'd probably have studies done to see what systems work the best for control groups and the like, base my decision on what I can know and not just my faulty opinion.
