Between church, school, & targeted advertising my inability to focus has probably helped me subvert more brain washing than I'll ever really know. Maybe it's not so maladaptive in this dystopia? (sh.itjust.works)

we were supposed to be confused and write that we couldn't do it.

Is this a US specific thing? In our schools, they taught us stuff, then took a test to see how much of it got inside our head. I can't imagine a test having a question about a topic which is not taught yet. It feels like straight up bullying by the system. We send kids to school to learn things, not to get bullied for not knowing things they haven't even been taught yet.

I was raised in an exceedingly rural area of an already rural state. My school district was rated amongst the worst in the nation, so my experience was more indicative of the worst 1980s US had to offer. It was bad then, but not usually that bad.
