It is so easy to homeschool. Kids thirst for understanding naturally. I usually point out to folks that scoff at the thought of them homeschooling that it is impossible to keep kids from learning things they really want to know, which is blatantly apparent to every parent trying to keep their kids safe. At about the age of 10 most kids are ready to start doing real things, and quite desperate to do them. Mine were, anyway. Using the imperial system for measuring was the foundation of their mathematical education, because the metric system makes fractions too easy, and I needed to measure lots of things in my work, which I could delegate to them. When my kids had to add and subtract imperial fractional measurements, the understanding of why math is the way it is was intrinsic to the calculations, and it was very easy to use circumstances where multiplication, division and other manipulations of fractions might be necessary to extend that base into more advanced maths.

However, for folks in other lines of work, I can see how that might be intimidating. I remember when one of my sons expressed curiosity regarding Native Americans, of which I only knew much about the tribe I grew up in contact with. My own knowledge of the subject was abysmal, and I always felt I had served him poorly at that time, so much that I have recently purchased a seminal work on the subject to give him. He is almost 30 now. Parenting never ends. Education never ends either.

Anyway, I was alarmed at trends and problems with educational institutions back in the 1990s, which parents today reasonably consider the 'good 'ol days' compared to the problems they face now, enough to homeschool then. I absolutely cannot understand how parents today subject their get to public schools that encourage cross dressing or other BS. @taliakerch recently posted regarding parents not being allowed into schools, and that is a gynormous red flag. No one that insists on having access to my kids without me being able to be present is going to get anywhere near my kids unless it's over my corpse.

Like the Socratic dialogues show, such basic principles underlie reality in every consideration of the political and financial skulduggery people face to day, at every hand. Why did the fake news about Hamas beheading babies get blasted at us? Because everyone sees killers of children as the bad guy, which would almost force them to support Israel if they believed it. However, that story was fake news. The Israeli supporting media lied about it (this is what they do constantly, why I don't pay them any mind at all, and why I use the term enemedia. No one reaching adulthood can possibly be unaware that a) liars are the bad guys, and b) the enemedia are liars). That makes it obvious that Israel is the bad guy, because lying is something good guys don't need to do. It becomes more obvious Israel is the bad guy with even a cursory glance at what they are doing to the >1m children in Gaza, blowing them up by the thousands, cutting off their food, water, power, and all necessities.

Anyone that grasps that information viscerally understands that is what bad guys - and only bad guys - do. Then it is very easy to search the term 'Israel created Hamas' and find that Hamas is, like ISIS, a weapon Israel uses to commit attacks on itself that it can blame on the Palestinians. Once people understand these simple and very easy to learn things, it is not a complicated matter anymore. It's as easy as telling night from day to tell the bad guys from the good guys, and for Americans putting US boots on the ground in support of the bad guys is absolutely not allowable. The huge protests across America supporting Palestine and opposing military and other support of the evil Israeli state reflect the simplicity of telling who the bad guys are, and what is the right thing to do about it.

Too many people don't trust their guts. This is why they end up taking jabs they know they shouldn't to keep their jobs, or maintain some privilege, like attending events or going to taverns. The very threat to withhold such privilege is something bad guys do, and good guys do not. That's all the understanding that is necessary to not get the jabs, pay taxes, or sentence our children to public indoctrination. It is baffling to me that so many people are able to be bamboozled despite the simplicity of understanding people pushing the jabs are the bad guys, people pushing war are the bad guys, and people stealing your money through taxes are the bad guys.

Thanks!
