This was in the comments posted by the OP, more proof that he is completely batshit-crazy....
Our natural habitat? The ocean! FUCK LOGIC!
Oh yeah and I often use logic and culture in times of danger. Being chased by a mountain lion? Assuage him with a complicated chemical equation or just drop a tapestry on his head...
I know I was a pretty damn good kid (Didn't play pranks, was okay with long distance travels [No "Are we there yet? Now? Now? Now?], only threw the occasional tantrum, spent most of my time reading) And I still gave my parents plenty of headaches to the point where my mom nearly wished she didn't have any kids. School is cakewalk.TizzytheTormentor said:
While yes, I do kinda agree that school is pretty stupid at times (totally going to be using all those fecking poems and Shakespeare from Lit class, amiright?), having absolutely no schooling would be worse. You'd get guys like this muppet running around everywhere.
Though these people make me feel like Einstein, I think I can cope without.

Sort of related, I googled "nut" and the first hit is actually the National Union of Teachers. I'll leave it at that.
And I suppose that they don't have to be mutually exclusive, but young people will often enough grow out of that "freshman liberal-arts" mindset once they see the world for how it actually is. The nuts don't.
Even worse, his profile is fully public visible, meaning that it will hobble his attempts at a serious job in the future. Or hey, maybe he'll actually be a "successful" modern hunter-gatherer, and it won't matter anyway because he'll be focused on actually surviving to see the next day instead of doing anything productive for society.bartholen said:

Uses a smartphone with a camera to take picture of themselves to upload on the internet.
I don't really want to imagine how they will raise their kids, let alone provide for them. According to their logic they cant use social benefits and need to live in the woods to hunt deer for their children to eat. Good luck with that.

WTF? Since when is the tropical sea our natural habitat? Or is she referring to the basic life forms in the early stages of evolution? because not only is that argumentation retarded I'm also pretty sure the first organisms didn't develop in "the tropical sea"....
Yes, let's all get in on the circle jerk. Yes. The guy is an idiot. And? Apart from being meanspirited and pointless, all this does is sets us in our current thinking, and makes us more prone to errors in reasoning that lead you to looking exactly as foolish as he does.
This RWJ schtick was lame when you did it with a series of feminist pictures, and, while less obnovious here, it's still pathetic.

Actually, the man has a point. As modern as we are with all of our gadgets they still don't farm, fish or hunt for us.
We still depend on farmers and fishermen to feed us. So saying we 'could' go back to that if not for goverment and laws etc, isn't exactly wrong.
Sure, the modern way of life is easier, but that way of life is indeed more free.
I'm not going to comment on good/bad, just stating facts.
I heavily disagree with it being good for teenagers to be pregnant in our society though.

So he's bemoaning the education system and useless machines...on the internet: something used through useles machines made possible by people with education? Yup, he's thought this one through. Maybe it's just me, but I'm not looking forward to the idea of moving back to the hunter-gatherer way of life in the first place, let alone if it comes with such little respect for those that discovered polio vacinations and the like.
This guy's gonna be unhappy when he finds out women in hunter-gatherer societies tend to have their first period at 18 and their first child at 20...
A big part of the problem is that teaching K-12 tends to pay poorly, rank low in prestige, and demand a lot of work compared to most other professions that require the same credentials (bachelor's to start, master's within X years afaik.) Between pressure from the kids, parents, administrators, and just media/culture/politics in general, it's not an appealing career for most people. So what you get is a relative handful of teachers per school who are passionate enough about the nobility of education to put up with the bullshit... and a ton of teachers who just settled or burned out.an annoyed writer said:
I can understand where he is coming from on the public education bit even though i think that he is wrong. However the government bit makes me wonder if he paid attention in school. Nobody LIKES governments but they are necessary for the human race to survive. Without them we would destroy ourselves.
And if he's so against schooling and government and the like, how could he have gotten the education required to be a teacher? Hypocritical much?an annoyed writer said:
Honestly I feel he wasn't really a teacher, maybe a substitute...at best. Don't get me wrong, substitutes can be great people who end up taking a lot of shit for little pay, but it doesn't always take a whole lot to be a substitute and this guy could claim to have been beaten with a stupid stick and I would believe him.
Moron. We don't need to hunt and all as education is now the way we're going to survive in this world. I thought at first that some guy tried to intentionally invoke Poe's Law, but I guess that he did more than that. Now, can the Internet rage at him?
Fuck it ill be the one "freshman arts liberal" or whatever it is im supposed to be to disagree, i think hes got a point, id love to go live in a cabin in the woods for a while hunting deer, fishing and growing my own weed, and be in harmony with nature instead of living in a concrete city that i dont really like earning money for my boss surrounded by unhappy looking people who dont talk to each other (tho that might just be the uk) whilst we all send our planet straight to hell. I dont think all of society should collapse and everyone should revert to this, but its not to be scoffed at either. Modern life seems very artificial and contrived sometimes. I would never completely reject living in a city with all the modern conveniences but id like to get back to nature sometime, at least for a bit.
However i do like my modern conveniences, id have to get a cabin with wifi. Disagree on the "useless machines" part, machines can be good. Would never give up my car
On the teen pregnancy thing, no idea where to start there. I know that teen pregnancy isnt a new thing, probably been around since the stone age, better not to get all judgemental on a pregnant teen too.

No need to be so serious all the time. There is no real "set thinking" as you put it. None of us here have a consensus in our thinking, just most agree how silly the argument is. Yes he's allowed to hold that opinion, but nothing protects those opinions being mocked if they're silly enough.Loonyyy said:
Dunno what RWJ is, so can't respond to that. Just have fun bro!
I am certain that since he hates this society of ours, he must also wish to see life expectancy to drop below 40 years again, because that is what his so-called "natural society" brings about.
