Highlights From The Comments On Cult Of Smart

February 18, 2021 · Original source

I get even worse Harrison Bergeron vibes when I think about a comment by Konstantin :

Inline links: a comment by Konstantin

Konstantin is too nice to put it this way, but think of school as a moderately abusive environment. If you're coming from a great environment, a moderately abusive environment will be worse. If you're coming from a severely abusive environment, a moderately abusive environment might be a life-saving respite. Is it a worthwhile trade? If there were some group of men who were guaranteed to beat their wives only occasionally, and not that hard, would you force women to marry them, since it would save some of them from marrying somebody even worse? I feel bad for giving such emotionally loaded examples - saving the really abused kids is an important goal, and school accomplishes it. I don't know what to think here other than hope for Konstantin's optimistic world where the kids who need school get it and the ones who don't can stay away.
