The role of teachers?

Teachers are viewed by some as the ‘soft cops’ of the state; a youth wing of the police force whose objective is to atomise individual creativity, to accustom young people to their role as submissive industrial fodder, and to indoctrinate against subversion and unorthodoxy of any kind. In Ireland, the role of Christian faith meted out in form assemblies and classrooms across the country is hand in glove with statist control. ... read full story / add a comment
