Reply to comment by peproren in Teaching philosophy in a children’s prison has shown me the meaning of anger | The arguments against imprisoning children are well established, yet still we lock up those who have been failed by Va3Victis

That's exactly what they are. Loss of freedom, stress, boredom, humiliation, physical violence... schools can be just as brutal and traumatic as prisons. And what do they teach you? Conformity. Obedience. To be a good little cog in society's insane machine. Schools groom us for a life of oppression and wage slavery.
