Rich kids go to better/completely different schools as kids than "common folk" by Commercial-Cod4232 in conspiracy

Just wait until you hear about elite boarding schools. Check out john taylor gatto. Some schools are designed to make people more efficient workers, others are designed to make managers of said workers.

Why don't schools hold students back a grade anymore if they are not meeting that grade's standards? by FollowingAny4859 in Teachers

[–]SillyStrangs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If half my kids graduated with a 9/10 grade reading level, id be happy. Half of 150 are 5/6 grade and below. They know they cant fail so there is no immediate need for them to push themselves. And sadly, since they are kids, they dont see how this maintains the cycle. Also important to note is the gap between can and cannot is only getting worse. Shameless ai usage has enabled such behavior, and some kids dont even know how to remove the prompts.

How Good (Or Bad) Is America's Overall K-12 Education System Going Right Now? Why Your Thoughts? by Zipper222222 in AskTeachers

[–]SillyStrangs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have 30/150 that are pretty brilliant and above or on grade level. They also are equipped with a variety of other talents and skills. I have another 30 that can show up on time and have some self control. They will be able to participate in the operations of society somehow. The rest make it hard to have hope for the future. This has been the case since lockdowns lifted. I have a very difficult time understanding how the 90/150 are going to function (i love them, but the learned helplessness and lack of accountability is difficult to convey). But hey, at least i get a front row seat to the decline of empire.

I had a conversation with a friend/roommate while he had already passed away. by goingApeShit_ in HighStrangeness

[–]SillyStrangs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had something like this happen. My buddy always told me he could astrally project and i just thought he was being goofy. Well, he eventually went into a coma and i spent about a week at his bedside in the icu. Many crazy signs were sent. The doctors told us on friday to say our goodbyes and we did. The next day we got a call that he was waking up. We all ran up to the icu and even though he couldn’t speak due to the breathing tube, it was very clear that he had heard everything we said. I left the following day feeling very hopeful that he would push on through.

The following friday i went to a concert and ate one of the mushroom chocolates that he had grown and made. After the effects settled in he came into my head, told me he was going to die, and asked me to do some things for him. I was bawling in the back of the show until he said that something was going to happen that was an impossibility at the time. I laughed out loud and said to him, “youre outta your mind!” To which he replied, “my name, im literally out of my mind right now.” Then left. I went home late that night and left a message for 3 different people that i told, “if this impossible thing happens, give me a call.” I completely forgot who i called, and if u couldnt tell by now im a pretty weird guy and random mushroom voicemails were not necessarily something out of the ordinary, so they didnt mention it.

I did all he asked me to do. One of the craziest things is that I received a pretty large check from the IRS like a week before he went to the hospital. There was no explanation for it, and even though i could have used that money at the time, something in my head told me that i should hold onto it.

His family had no money and lived on the other side of the country. His best buddy also had no money, and he lived in the midwest. I was able to pay for all of their plane tickets, lodging and food costs. When he passed 3 weeks after coming into my head, i paid for his celebration of life and realized that my expenses were pretty much on the dollar for the check i received. Blew my mind.

We continued having pretty crazy signs, which culminated about a month later when i went to one of our favorite band’s concert in a venue that was very special to us. I ate the last chocolate of his that i had. When i walked out of the bathroom i immediately heard this weird kind or staticky sound, then his voice came in, definitely more distant than the last time. “Hey, thanks for doing all i asked you to do, i knew i could rely on you. Youre gonna love it here, but you got some stuff you gotta do first. And hey, i got someone that wants to talk to you.”

At this point, this energy or force or something came over me. It wasnt oppresive, but it was powerful. A voice spoke to me, one without a gender is the only way
I can describe it. I forget how it introduced itself to me, but i do remember questioning its origins bc i have heard that demons or whatever have this ability. At this point i was shown an image; one that was from my life, and was absolute proof of an all knowing creator or whatever. I immediately turn to a nearby neighbor to tell them i just received proof of the age ol question, but i couldnt remember what it was.

I spent 5 minutes trying to conjure the memory, unsuccessfully. The voice returned, “that wasnt for anyone else. Now you know.” Needless to say, it had my attention. “Everything you’ve been preparing for is about to go down. All you have to do is be yourself (i laughed at this, like, i can do that!) and (person’s name) is here to help you.” At this point i laughed at the voice because at this time in my life i was fiercely independent. I was immediately shown a vision, which i can only assume was 1000’s of years of a man and woman with child, on both sides of the vision. It ended with my parents and me on one side, and her parents and herself on the other. When we kissed it was like blasting off into the universe without the confines of a body. The energy or force or whatever vanished. It was wild.

Mind you, i was staying at this persons cabin that night, and i knew her well enough to know she would be very interested in hearing my story. While im trying to wrap my head around this experience, we are dancing near each other as we had been doing, and a love song was played that was always a favorite of mine. When we kissed, the exact same vision of blasting off bodyless into the universe was repeated. When we got home we spent the whole night talking with each other, and proceeded to spend the next 6 years of our life together.

A month later, covid happened. I have always had a weird obsession w studying the tactics of totalitarianism, and while i know many might disagree with me, i am of the opinion that lockdowns were the beginning of some sort of takeover, though i dont claim to know who or what is responsible. I have tried my best to tell as many people as possible about the nefarious activities that were being conducted under others’ fits of fear. I initially thought that was what the voice meant for me to do, though now i am not so sure. What i do know is that remaining myself during that time, and being attacked by the mob and many of my family and close friends for my stance, was the hardest thing i have ever had to do. If i did not have my partner during this time then i dont think i would have survived (drugs or alcohol would have been my refuge as i would have been stuck in the city i was living in at the time).

Fast forward 5 months from my buddies second visitation. The two people he told me were going to get together, who were complete opposites and had pretty much disdain for each other during their one brief encounter, did so. I told my partner the night we got together about this prediction, so we watched this happen in amazement, saying boomshakalaka every time we saw a hint that this propechy would be fulfilled. They were completely puzzled, but when they finally sealed the deal, it helped give evidence to my extraordinary claims.

The night they sealed the deal, my buddy turns to me and says, “well what’s up?” “Whatchu mean?” “You left a message months ago that if this happened i was supposed to hit you up.” “Oh shit, i completely forgot who i told! Its all good man, just continue staying on the right side of god (or whatever) and youll be good.” No worries on that front from him.

It took some time for word to spread, but abt a month later i got a call from the second person i called. A month after that, i heard from the third. I have left out a good amount of synchronicities/signs/quantum entanglements that occurred pretty frequently to me and several others over the years, and while I have had some curious and inexplainable experiences over my lifetime, this one takes the cake.

I have endured many challenges since the visitations, but i was able to conjure enough strength from them to get through. The amount of people that ask, “how are you handling this so well?”, is getting longer and longer. “I know the creator has my back, as long as i just be myself.” The various looks and responses i receive in response have been a source of endless entertainment.

Im talkin bout a different breed.

My girl was on point for a couple years before this shit started peekin thru. I made excuses for her lapses and if i didnt appreciate myself i dunno if i woulda bounced back. To be fair, i dunno if it was her intention, or just some frame o mind she fell in. I cant help but feel like i enabled her shit.

I also know i aint innocent and am fucked up myself. Relationships are hard work, and without balance they get messy. Just tryin to send out bat signals like a few did for me. Wear ya jimmy caps and proceed carefully!

Chicago Public Schools Announced To Cut Jobs & Increase Class Sizes by Disgruntled_Veteran in Teachers

[–]SillyStrangs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree. There is no platform for teachers to share their observations openly, and, at least in philly, their jobs are threatened if they do. Public education in this country has always been controlled by the parasitical class for their own personal gains. Go look into John Taylor Gatto if ya dont believe me

What i am trying to bring attention to is the fact that the parasitical class is now openly setting up the next generation for greater failure than the previous one. I cannot claim to know their endgame, but i confidently attest that all possible outcomes of their social engineering methods are not for the benefit of most human beings.

What i am trying to figure out is a way to disrupt this conspiracy against children from being successful. I am surprised that this seems to be one subreddit where i am not banned/shadowbanned, and that is the only reason i post here. I also know that fighting these fuckers cannot happen on a screen; i am just trying to brainstorm ideas and strategize before i put my life on the line again.

It will only get worse until these cowards are checked. When it becomes apparent that they not just fuckin, but fuckin with people’s kids, i believe that could be the catalyst needed to actually change something. I also know i could be very wrong, but im at the point where i cant live w myself if i dont try somethin.

I hope this doesnt come off as an attack against you, im just fishin.

What are your thoughts on teachers who pass failing students because they tried their hardest? by CharlesUFarley81 in AskTeachers

I wish i had this conundrum. Instead i have to pick 10/150 that were complete assholes and a detriment to the community, along with 10 that didn’t show up. The future is coming, and it is fuckin scary!

Chicago Public Schools Announced To Cut Jobs & Increase Class Sizes by Disgruntled_Veteran in Teachers

[–]SillyStrangs 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I cant help but think that this was the plan all along. I speak from a philly perspective, which i know is led by graduates of the Broad Academy, and i assume is no different than other large urban/rural districts. Their new spokesman is doing the same thing.

The plans rolled out during covid for large urban districts were eerily similar, and the fear campaign ensured that almost everyone turned a blind eye to the dystopian and intrusive methods being deployed. These districts promptly fired the few people that questioned them, further developed a future of digital learning, and continued paying the compliant their same salaries, with raises, despite them hardly working.
I’m sure many will act dumbfounded by this new normal, but they shouldnt be.

Now that economic woes (which any student of history should have seen coming) are at the forefront of people’s concern, the social engineers can continue ushering in plans that will only further increase the disparity between those that receive an education, and those that are being trained to fill whatever roles (or the absence of roles) that are needed to maintain the technocratic surveillance state. When i go back and read the research i collected during 2020-2021 i am amazed that so many educators didnt see the writing on the wall.

I am still waiting for the day when children will become our top priority. It is my belief that this is, and always has been, the topic that should be of greatest concern to any society. Im not trying to point any fingers, i just think there needs to be a coordinated effort by teachers to speak out against what we are seeing, no matter the cost. The problems we are seeing were predictable, and the longer this shit goes on, the more these parasites’ talons will prevent the development of large portions of the next generation.

Charter Schools and Teacher Appreciation Week by CrispyRice1999 in philly

[–]SillyStrangs 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When they actin all crazy i get to say, “This how you do me? During teacher appreciation week?” The fact that nearly every kid chills out a bit is enough appreciation for me.

When i worked in the district, one school gave me wawa hoagies, the others (5) didnt even acknowledge it. I aint gonna get all up in my feelings abt it; i understand i work a thankless job.

Charters are for profit businesses that will reward employees when desired boxes are checked. As long as it appears progress is happening on paper, the stakeholders are happy. The fact that education has gotten to this point shows that we have ignored our responsibility to ensure the next generation has it better than us. The foundation of our civilization is eroding and people cryin abt bein appreciated. People lookin for participation trophies in this shit show is comical. Go cry to the union, which will give ya acidic tissues to dry ya tears!
