Turn Universities Into Career Factories for Loyal Bureaucrats

Knowledge Is Dangerous. Vocational
Training Is Safe.

The lesson for you, the voter, is this: when politicians brand universities as mere factories for future bureaucrats, the result isn’t just an assault on knowledge; it’s a diabolical scheme designed to manufacture legions of obedient followers.
What they’re crafting behind the facade of education reform is a controlled breeding ground of ignorance, where the only test is how well students can regurgitate party lines instead of critical thought.
Picture the scene: the proud institution, once a bastion of inquiry and debate, now being razed to the ground, replaced by glossy brochures for management degrees and a compelling course on how to smile when your soul is being crushed.
This is no accident—it’s a calculated move orchestrated by power-hungry politicians looking to keep potential dissenters dizzy with compliance rather than armed with ideas.
Knowledge is deemed dangerous; ignorance?
Profitable.
Never mind the classics or abstract thinking; there’s no ROI on a kid asking, “But why is inequality inherent in this system?” Instead, they’re funneling them into programs where the most philosophical question is, “Would you like that in a grande or venti?”

And how do they accomplish this?
By stringing up the art of questioning like a piñata at a birthday party, waiting for the moment when potential thinkers swing and miss.
History?
Forget it.
Why teach about the mistakes of the past when students can be trained to craft optimal corporate flowcharts instead?
Dusty history books gather mold while textbook managers rake in the bucks, peddling neatly packaged little lessons on how to optimize productivity instead of teaching about unjust wars, revolutions, and the very spirit of protest.
Who wants citizens who can recognize patterns of oppression when they can be busy accruing debts that trap them in a hamster wheel of compliance and economic servitude?
Political science, too, feels the blade of this agenda.
Why let students learn about the elegant art of civic discourse when they can be taught to engineer the latest gadget from the tech bubble?
Engineers are celebrated, exalted for their ability to build the shiny surveillance systems that keep dissent at bay.
The overt message is clear: build, don’t question.
This conveniently sidesteps the real issues that keep voters awake at night, activist hearts pounding, eyes narrowing as they confront the machinery of oppression.
The pièce de résistance of this scheme?
Celebrating obedience.
We’re not simply training future workers; we’re welding them into obedient automatons.
Management programs are transformed into the crown jewels of this brave new world, where students are molded to echo slogans instead of expressing doubts.
It’s a glorification of conformity—like teaching kindergarteners to recite their ABCs but never encouraging them to ask why letters exist in the first place.
They are candy-coated with assurances that “loyalty is king,” stuffing their heads with platitudes while their rights get siphoned off in hushed boardrooms.
But let’s get real.
The ultimate ambition—the sleeping giant that fuels this darkly comedic theater—is to breed a populace of unquestioning machines.
Citizens are crafted to churn out products and, therein, strip away the machinery of thought.
The true con game thrives on this ignorance masquerading as expediency, a society designed for assembly line productivity, where curiosity about societal injustices is met with dismissal, and passion is reserved for Netflix rather than activism.
So here’s your wake-up call: next time you hear a politician touting education reform, remember it isn’t about your enlightenment; it’s about your compliance.
They’re not just targeting institutions; they’re weaponizing ignorance.
Some judges and law enforcers strive for justice, but many more are slide-rules away from integrity—crafted by the very system built to crush critical thought.
If you aren’t vigilant, you might find yourself stifled by a new kind of bondage: one where your children are trained to obey their oppressive circumstances rather than challenge them.
Resist this empty rhetoric, demand more, and reclaim your mind from the political hustlers who rely on your silence.
The true danger lurks in the shadows of ignorance—where knowledge could have cut through, oblivion reigns supreme.
