In the Aztec religion there's a god named Tlāloc that is described as having "goggle eyes and fangs". Basically, if you search him up he looks like a reptilian.
However, Reptilian's are usually thought of to be humans enemies, but the Aztec worshiped him for providing them with water and fertility (wow, what a nice Reptilian). In other words, he was a god of water (for crops and whatnot).
Of course, being able to send rain isn't always good, allowing him to send hail, thunder, and lightning. For this reason (along with being the god of the water element) he was feared by the people.
Like any other God, sacrifices were made for Tlāloc. They ranged from innocent items such as jade and sand, to more gruesome sacrifices such as hearts and children. Wow Tlāloc, living up to your Reptilian identity huh.
Anyways, it's said that on children sacrifice days, "If, on the way to the shrine, these children cried, their tears were viewed as positive signs of imminent and abundant rains." If you know anything about Reptilians, you would know that this makes a lot of sense if Tlāloc is a Reptilian.
Now, Tlāloc isn't the only "Reptilian" in ancient mythology. Other good examples include Sobek and Cecrops. The fact that so many ancient cultures and religions have Reptilian like figures shows how long Reptilians have been on this planet.
If you compare the Aztecs experience with this Reptilian to our modern experiences with Reptilians, not much has changed. Reptilians are still worshipped (celebrities, ect.), children are still sacrificed, the weather is still being controlled (just like Tlāloc did), and the Reptilians still feed off our fears and anxieties (just like those children's tears before they were sacrificed).
Feel free to leave your thoughts below, I thought it was interesting how far back in time Reptilians have interacted with humans. Also, I recommend reading more about Tlāloc (it's interesting).
(P.S: Considering that Tlāloc helped the Aztec by providing them with water and fertility, I wonder if Reptilians had a different relationship with humans back then, or maybe they were just helping us advance as a society in order to get to where we are now; a world where they have energy from billions of humans to feed off of. Leave your thoughts about this down below as well, thanks.)
I've had these thoughts on my mind for quite some time now and just wanted to let it out. This is largely anecdotal but should be relevant to many people. This post is primarily about the public school system. By the way, I am all for education; education is crucial and can teach you to think critically as is much lacking in this "pandemic".
For context, I'm a university student studying electrical engineering. This year was my second year of the degree and through it, I came to realize just how useless school is in terms of education even for people like me.
One of the biggest scams of the century is school. As with Big Pharma, corrupt governments, corrupt corporations and the "pandemic", it has served to benefit only the elites. Being a one-size-fits-all model, almost all students are disadvantaged somewhat through school. Through the often gargantuan amounts of homework to the emphasis on grades, the overall health of students is severely impacted. Without school, children could be much more free to do what they want and have better quality of life.
School is a scam and benefits literally no-one but the elites. It's ridiculous how you have to spend almost your whole life in school until you are 17/18 years old. And guess what, once you graduate school, too bad, you're an adult now so you didn't even get to really enjoy your childhood. (Not saying that people can't have a good childhood due to school; just that school likely hinders our childhood.)
From primary school all the way to the end of secondary school, we are trained to conform with society. We are taught to follow rules and have to wear school uniforms (in the vast majority of schools at least). School is a one-size-fits-all model, everyone is trained in the same manner regardless of their differences. Obviously, everyone is different so this system already is flawed.
Prince EA on school:
School was designed for training people to be factory workers, hence why they are trained to be the same and to follow rules.
Children have to take the same classes for the most part despite their differences, leaving those who are actually good at and/or interested in those subjects to do well and those that are not to do poorly. The latter, though they may excel in other areas, are made to feel useless and like a failure. Heck, I remember how in school, I watched the top students get awards in prizegiving and how deflated I felt.
The focus on grades plays a large part in making school detrimental to many people's mental health. That feeling when your classmates get a higher grade than you...that feeling when you get a bad grade and you're scared to tell your parents because they might punish you for it (I have been many times). It's awful when you get compared to others on the basis of grades. Why the fuck do we care so much about grades, a number or letter which represents how well you did on a test? It literally has little to no impact on our future yet many people are so indoctrinated that they treat it like the most important thing ever. Being at university now, even the first two years of university grades have negligible impact on my future let alone school grades.
Perfect grades don't matter:
Personally, I had to take compulsory classes in English, math, and science all the way until my second last year of high school (16 years old) where I could at least choose some of my classes. Man, I hated English so much; we had to read books and write essays on those books and I always sucked at it. I remember my teacher saying that we will need to write essays in university which is why we are doing it in high school. Well, I haven't needed those essay writing skills. If I did need them, I could learn them once I need them; why do I have to learn it years in advance. Furthermore, unless you are studying some (arguably useless) degree like English, you won't have to write essays on novels anyway. This brings me to my next point.
The public education system is geared towards people who want to go to university/college, primary those in STEM. This traps people who are not intending to go to university and/or not going into STEM to waste their entire childhood learning things they do not need. On the other hand, (secondary) school grants entrance for people who do, especially those going into STEM, to university. It is evident how the former group are disadvantaged, though I would argue that the latter are also.
Let me elaborate. To get into engineering, I had to pass everything in calculus and physics as well as get a high enough grade to get in. However, this is the only way school has benefitted me in my journey to being an engineer. Literally everything of value that I learnt has been through Youtube and university.
In school, it's basically just rote learning; we don't actually get taught the fundamental concepts. And then to study for exams, most (including me at the time) just grinded past exam papers. Oh yea, and then we all forget everything after the exam/test. The most pronounced example of this was when throughout the entirety of high school physics, we never even touched calculus which is the language of physics. Instead, we were just spoon-fed formulae. University taught me the physics and math I needed rigorously from the ground up anyway, rendering the time in school essentially useless. It's hilarious and depressing how I was learning a lot of the stuff in my last year of high school physics this year in university except I actually learnt it properly rather than regurgitating arbitrary formulae.
One thing I have experienced is how school literally teaches stuff at a snails pace. Most of the class time is just spent doing text book questions and the content of one year overlaps with the next. University could likely cover the entire content of science and math in the entirety of school (primary to secondary) in a single year. Honestly, it's such a waste of time. Even with this pace of teaching however, many students are struggling due to not having mastered previous concepts, mainly the fundamental concepts (which they likely don't teach anyway). These gaps in knowledge cause them to struggle more and more as time goes on since new concepts rely on previous concepts at least for STEM subjects. School doesn't care though; as long as you keep passing which is generally quite easy to do even with large gaps in knowledge, you progress to the next year with these gaps. According to Sal Khan, we must teach for mastery rather than test scores:
Now let's talk about a really important topic: homework. I have been fortunate to have gone to schools where little to no homework was given. However, there are many schools which give hours of homework a day. I actually applied to some of those schools in my city but was thankfully rejected. Homework is not the best method for learning by a long shot; it may actually be detrimental to learning. (Just google "homework has no benefit") There are two reasons which follow.
When you have to do homework for the sake of doing it, the focus shifts from learning to the completion of the task. This may also kill motivation for learning and make you hate the subject. On the other hand, when you learn for the sake of learning (i.e. not being assigned the task but voluntarily doing it), you will learn better as your focus is on the learning. This phenomenon is also why school kills students' motivation and makes them hate subjects they otherwise liked. It has certainly happened to me as I always find more motivation and eagerness to learn in school holidays. I always hated biology in school but I find it very interesting now that I am out of school.
The second reason is that most homework is just repetition of some problem (e.g. arithmetic). Once you do a few of the problems, you should be good with the concept except you might still need to do hundreds more for homework. Furthermore, it is the understanding of the concepts that are important. If you have the understanding, you can do any questions they throw at you. A prime example is how I got A+ in my electromagnetics exam this year (almost) without doing a single problem; all I did was develop my understanding of the concepts.
Imagine the things children could do if they weren't confined to school for their entire childhoods. Children could actually do what they liked rather than learning about some random history fact which they don't care about in school. They could be freed from the anxiety and depression resulting from school. They could learn more because they aren't restricted by the confines of school and grades. Heck, they could even go to university much sooner if they wanted.
Unfortunately, all the points I made are so because the purpose of school is not to educate. It is to make people sheep who don't question anything and kills creativity. Without school, there will be more free-thinkers and critical-thinkers, making it much harder for the elite to deceive so many as in this 'pandemic'. Upon graduation from secondary school, the vast majority (not all) will either just get a 9-5 job or go to university. The latter is likely followed by a (hopefully) better job, albeit with student loans to pay most likely. Either way, you're destined to serve the elites (especially through taxes which are a scam in itself) your whole life.
In conclusion, school has numerous flaws when it comes to actually educating children. It serves little to no benefit and is unnecessarily time consuming and stressful in terms of education. If school was abolished, society as a whole would be better off as people would be healthier and less indoctrinated.
Edit: I just realized "It's" should be "Its" in the title lol. Also, tertiary education is soooo much better than school because you have way more freedom (e.g. no uniforms) and you can learn what you want.
