>We don't even have advanced classes in schools because they're seen as discriminatory against the less bright children: better to deny people opportunity than to hurt the feelings of others.
We deserve our fate.
Wrong. We offer advanced classes, but we don't offer technical skills.
Society thinks scholastic skills are automatic indicators of morality/empathy or survivalism.
Yet, I notice that the greatest criminals and dictators were well-read.
Also, it's not jealousy of others as much as it's performative indignation. People love drama.
It's not just the smart people that are hated. It's the mellow people that are more hated. The apolitical, the eternal observers.
Youth is not the source of idealism or indignation. It's adulthood. Especially since organizations are run by men over fort, and the biggest flaw of male nature is idealism, believe it or not, not lust.
Alot of our philosophy and religion are overseen by idle male elders that speculate their latest demigod fantasy.
They tell the youth to stop living for themselves and save the world, while the elders carouse about some pseudo-exotic themed restaurant with seafood for an umpteenth night.
