Why Academics Suck

Sadly, I of the Loser Professor Wanker class, discovered that a mod deleted a post of mine. Said mod claims it was a total accident. The post was about Lomax being a tool and hopefully the court agrees. But who accepts accidents or coincidences these days? It was clearly a conspiracy and censorship! CLEARLY!

Which brings me to why it was TOTALLY FINE to censor me. Professors suck. Take it from me. All teachers are evil. OBVIOUSLY.

What are you top reasons why those with educational qualifications suck? Why professors suck? Why teachers are evil?

I'll start. We indoctrinate the youth. Specifically, we encourage them to think and use evidence when thinking. This is evil. Also, we are elitists. Just better than all other swine by saying "ya know is that rooly true". This is bad.

I'm calling for all mods to be banned for censoring me. This is not a contradiction because there are no contradictions. Why are you comparing different clauses in a sentence for consistency, that sounds like something a professor would do. And they're bad and evil.

Top reasons why academics suck?

Parra-Greg, I dig your avatar. Bert is my favourite Eel and indeed favourite player EVER. Also, FYI, the line "Brett Kenny is playing today?" is an age old "she/he is cute" secret squirrel saying. Anyway, fully credentialed my man. Just enough props to blog here but it will do.

So, did you know the adage about 'those who can't do, teach' comes form a play?

“Those who can, do; those who can’t, teach.”
— George Bernard Shaw, "Man and Superman" (1905)

Many ironies here. It's usually men uttering the adage. Shaw's play is a play on Friedrich Nietzsche's argument that humans will evolve to be supermen and it will be women who drive that porocess. Irony #1. Also, the NEXT line in Shaw's play (technically the appendix) is an absolute smackdown of learning itself: "A learned man is an idler who kills time with study". It's irony #2 because we lunatic edumakators are just glad everyone who utters the adage rarely reads, or they would be throwing the NEXT line (and the NEXT two!) at us instead. Because I am feeling geneorus, though, and because your avatar is Bert, here is the link to Shaw killing educators: Maxims for Revolutionists

Anyway, is the answer to the adage "right"? Interesting. Einstein and Hawking (physcists), Tolkien (author), Frost (poet), Oppenheimer (bomb maker) all taught. But this is obvious.

My favourite reply has always been Robert Heinlein. Author of Starship Troopers, Strangers in a Strange Land, The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. Same Heinlein who rejected political labels and said the human race divides into those who want people controlled and those who lack that desire.

"When one teaches, two learn" (Robert Heinlein)

Teachers are basically the planet's greatest multiplier effect. Maybe that is why, when most western liberal democracies started investing in state education, they started doing alot more?

And there is another, but it might be boring: those who 'do' pretty well master a task or skill and just get it done. Fair enough. But teachers MUST understand someone who does NOT understand them. What happens if our society loses the skill of understanding those who don't understand others?

Because you are a fuckstick. That is all.

  Can you define 'f-stick', Mapik? I think there is a whole industry that sells them, so it sounds like a valuable commodity?

Professor Daz (I hope you are adequately Credentialed), not an honourary title lol. I do hope your PhD cuts the mustard, and was obtained at a verifiable tertiary institution esp if you are to remain blogging on one eyed eel haha.

"Those who can do...., those who cant teach" ...right ?......lol ......
