I remember as a young kid, you know,
00:00:01
driving past the school and all the
00:00:03
homeschool kids, we would joke like wave
00:00:05
to the prisoners or like when kids were
00:00:07
on a school bus, we would act like it
00:00:09
was a jail bus. Um, which in hindsight
00:00:12
is not funny, but we definitely did view
00:00:16
school as,
00:00:18
yeah, kind of a prison for children,
00:00:20
like sitting in a class eight hours a
00:00:22
day in indoctrination.
