Can everyone see this? Basically it's just a picture of 3 pregnant teens.

And the accompanying text is:

Spoiler

"Teen pregnancy is NOT a problem. It's healthy. Young adults are supposed express themselves sexually and they're supposed to have children. The whole concept of a "teenager" is a psychopathic, Eurocentric fallacy. The word "teenager" did not even exist until the 1940's. It was a way for corporations to keep young adults enslaved to the education system so they can help industrialize America. Young adults are grown and should make their own decisions. This society, with it's concrete, steal, and useless machines, forces young adults into poverty. They are told to study the arts and sciences of Europe and that they need to get good grades in order to be someone. They are told that they are not good enough and that they won't be good enough until they receive a piece of a dead tree that says they're smart. I taught at MPS High schools for only 3 months and it broke my heart to see how badly this system has fucked up these young adults. They're studying algebra and struggling to read this confusing English language when they should be hunting, fishing, and taking care of their children. Young men and women all over the world have been forced into a global system of debt slavery that they do not comprehend. The stress and depression of it all leads many of them to abuse their children and even commit suicide. This is why I DO NOT support public education or the existence of government in general. In the egalitarian anarchy of nature, young adults could have all the babies they want and not have to worry about money or jobs."

LOL. I understand that "teenager" is a new term, but saying its healthy and cool for teens who clearly can't support any children to have them is ludicrous in the extreme. Oh yeah get rid of public education and go back to living as we did in tribes! Such a good life that was! Yes people get killed now, but the proportion is faaaaaar lower than it was back then.

It's kind of hard to believe there are people that actually have such firm and silly beliefs. If you really feel this way, just move out to the bush lol and stop using computers and all such modern conveniences.

So do you guys know anyone like this? Or do you believe some or all of this? What are your arguments?

I taught at MPS High schools

Okay okay okay.... This really caught my eye here...

How the FUCK does someone this uneducated become a teacher? Does he not get the point of what we do with the system? Education is something we do so we don't end up like the other primates and be a bunch of shit-chucking dumbshits. Hell, Maddox did an article a while back that nailed it down perfectly: [link]http://thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=math[/link]

And MPS High Schools... That's the acronym for Milwaukee Public Schools, if I'm not mistaken, and that's one of the most fucked up public school systems in the states. This guy's view is so skewed it's ridiculous.

Just goes to show you how badly the US public school system is fucked, the fact that it is producing people such as this.

No government and living free is awesome until you have a large group of starving children and single mothers wondering where food comes from.

what is this, i don't even

Seriously, what. Existence in a tribal, pre-civilization society is preferable to what we have today--or even what we could accomplish if we could get our shit more together than it is now?

And holy shit, this guy is either mentally stuck in a "freshman liberal-arts student with only heavily biased professors for context and information about the outside world," or he's a nut. Full on tribal/anarchist/revolutionary/gun-nut/anti-transhumanist with zero understanding of agriculture, economics, engineering, or science. Apparently he just graduated from high school, so I'm going to assume the first scenario, but jesus.

 

[Bertylicious]

Poor people are hilarious! I rather doubt their beliefs are what you'd call "firm" though; it all seems a little bit like a justification for being a pregnant teen with little future.

Then again maybe there IS some merit in all this. If we got rid of education, at least for women, then we could just use women as toys and slaves, which would make our lives easier. We could put them in different uniforms to identify how many men they shagged so we could tell how good they were.

Though that said, it does mean that it would be virtually impossible to maintain any kind of meaningful relationship with a woman and all the best women would be owned by the rich and powerful. Also it'd be a monstrous nightmare for men as they'd be kind of trapped in the role of oppressor and everybodies lives would be brutish, ugly and short. Plus the whole world would stink of babies, which would be terrible.

stoped reading right here

*snrrrrk* ok buddy, this is all good and ok..but no more technology, facebook, government serveices, jobs,money you go live in the woods and ris yourselfs of the "useless machines" and then it will be all good

 

[Keoul]

Oh god this is just terrible.
This is definitely reaches my list of top 10 dumbest things I have ever heard. I sincerely hope it's a joke, this man really wants us to go back to the stone age? and thinks that was better? Jeez talk about spreading self-destructive thoughts, this guy is probably more dangerous for teenagers than what the media makes videogames seem to be.

The husband of one of my coworkers is kind of like this. "The government serves NO purpose." "We don't need police."

The drivel that comes out of his mouth is enough to make me wince at times.

I'd love to see the 8-10 million or so people in New York City try to hunt and fish to enough to sustain themselves. They'd be reduced to hunting each other and practicing cannibalism in order to survive. Hell, I live in the relatively undeveloped country of north Alabama and I'd have a devil of a time hunting and gathering enough to survive. I know how to garden and would do so but more people don't and it wouldn't be too long before I'd have to guard my vegetable garden with a shotgun.

What an idiot.

Food come from generous arms of mighty comrade Stalin of course!

 

[lRookiel]

Oh good gripes some people actually believe we could go back to that?

Fucking idiots -.-

 

[Whitbane]

I can't even. How can people this stupid actually exist? American education in some areas is terrible, but this bad?

Try hunting and fishing when most people haven't touched a fishing rod in their life.

Always a funny one to hear.

Usually comes from the same mouth as someone complaining that the roads aren't well enough maintained, that someone should do something about all those crackheads down the street who keep burgling peoples houses, and so on.

Pretty much the Daily Mail personified really.

I don't understand why does he need to be exclusively one or the other. Unless for the latter you mean one of

Spoiler: these

...but on second thought, I still don't see how they cannot overlap.

Sort of related, I googled "nut" and the first hit is actually the National Union of Teachers. I'll leave it at that.

This society, with it's concrete, steal, and useless machines

concrete, steal, and useless machines

steal
Wat?

But yeah, probably someone who didn't get told he was smart for a long time. At least he still managed to use "this confusing English language" enough to post his opinion on the internet.

That is exactly why I took a double-take at his supposed teaching career. Pretty much every teacher I know can at the very least spell correctly, let alone have coherent ideas that make sense.

 

[Saladfork]

Well, if you've ever heard of "Buyer's Remorse" you can probably understand why pregnant 16-year-olds would want a way to justify their self-inflicted dead-end future. It's largely the same reason why some parents claim that raising mentally disabled kids is somehow better than raising healthy ones.

 

[Phrozenflame500]

Yeah, they are just trying to justify them being pregnant so young and their low school grades.

Ironically, back in the days where we didn't have organized government, education, police, etc. woman got stoned/beaten to death for getting pregnant that young. Ignorance at it's finest, ladies and gentlemen.

 

[Ljs1121]

So. Much. Poe's. Law.

Darn it Internet! I used to be able to tell whether somebody was being serious or satirical. Now I never know which to assume. D:
