Are american schools communist?
As a child I went to several schools as my family moved a lot. These things are the core principles I seemed to learn from a public American education system.
1# Intelligence is bad, never think for yourself
2# Rules matter even if they have no sense
3# Adults and authority is superior even when they are abusive
4# Memorize everything you can, but don't ever know anything outside your specialty
5# Use the book, not your brain
6# Everyone will move at the same pace, Since we dont want anyone to feel left out
7# If one of you cant perform, no one in the group can perform so you all fail
Many public schools have a rule that you can not graduate or finish early since everyone must graduate at the same time. Even if they already finished their other classes they will be given extra classes just to keep them in school instead of graduating early. Asking questions about anything considered unpleasant is usually punished. Since you must only learn what they tell you to learn and nothing more. They have a lot of rules that are outdated, don't make any sense, and are applied without any regard to context or reasoning behind the rule. Any attempt at making things more efficient it shot down. Use the book not your brain. Do your work according to whats in the book, not what you think. A lot of classes are graded on the class as a whole vs individual performance review of each student.
