The laser eyes can rest, at last.

"Society" and "the entire community" as mentioned here is some romantic ideal that does not exist in reality. It is only a euphemism for the individuals holding the reins of government. With that in mind, you realize that they're saying the quiet part out loud: The purpose of a public education in a public school is not to teach your kids what you believe they should be taught. It is to teach your kids what all the individual rulers (at the federal level, those occupying legislative seats or the office of the president or positions within the Department of Education, similar state level positions, all the way down to the local school board members, school administrators, and local members of teachers unions) want to teach them. There was a time when people living in the U.S. were more unified than we are now, and it was not absurd to think that you and these rulers were in agreement about what you wanted to teach your kids. I encourage you to question whether that is still the case today. Either homeschool your kids, or if you can find a private school that you're in sufficient agreement with, use them...

A'ight nostriches, I just got my old computer tower (2 TB hard drive, mid-line graphics card from 2014) re-booted on Start9. What should I do on it?
