response to mike moore and mr. our schools suck.

Alright, I give Michael Moore credit for being the outspoken person he is. He's got an opinion and he loves digging up dirt on people and rattling off a bunch of statistics about how screwed up stuff is, but cut to the chase, dude. I get it, America is a country of ignorant, lazy idiots who don't give a damn about much. Does anyone disagree?

I guess those who would disagree with that claim are doing so only because they're ignorant. You feel me?

Michael Moore is not awesome by any means. Fahrenheit 911 is a bunch of speeches cut and spliced together. Most if not all of them are taken out of context and re-worked so it fits in with his message. It's another stupid documentary that spins some topic into something the reader should BELIEVE in by the time it's over. As far as what he said here, he's right about the message he's trying to get across and it's interesting and startling, but I don't think anyone gives a hoot about doing anything about it.

Think about what the average American is like today. They've been divorced, have a bunch of kids to deal with and about to foreclose on the home the bank shouldn't have given them a loan for in the first place. Don't forget about those credit cards you've maxed out and throw away the bills for every month! What motivation do these people have to learn about our world and how to make it better if they can't even sustain themselves in society? There is very little that makes America great, and the things Moore brought up in the text are definitely a testament to that.

As for the teacher who wrote about how crappy our schools are: NO S##T, MAN.

This guy is cool because he tells it how it is-- unlike almost every other teacher I've come across in my time. Not only did I find myself agreeing with him as I read this, but I also related to it. If the way education is conducted and introduced into our society does not undergo an extreme alteration in order to adapt to the changing social climate in our country, we're pretty much screwed. Disagree?


let's brighten the mood with some disco.
