Episode 766 - Mt. EverQuest (9/11/23)
/ chapo-trap-house
Forgetful 9/11 to all our listeners. We start today’s show with an examination of the various kinks of American states. Then: Elon aka Mr. Too-Damn-Cap claims to have disabled starlink to scuttle a drone attack in Ukraine; and a chronical of the various humiliations Rudy aka Mr. Too-Damn-9/11 has suffered lately. Finally, a harrowing piece on the private companies attempting to foist metaverse VR into children's education.
Link to Karl Stevens’ and Jaime Lee Curtis’ new graphic novel Will plugs at the end of the show: bookshop.org/p/books/mother-n...

You know the episode is good when Felix is yelling at some conservative school indoctrination freak that they should commit Florida seppuku. Great ep

The article gave up the game when it mentioned that the company sells the equivalent of VR Chat rooms.

This, absolutely. I think that another aspect that went almost entirely uninterrogated was the mention that teachers would be from all over the country/world. I can see this as a huge tool for dismantling any attempts at unionization, since teachers wouldn't share a space, and might not even be able to communicate directly. I could even see this leading to companies outsourcing or automating the teaching role as a way to minimize expenses.
Barely begun, and already accurate as hell. I've been an ashtray in NY.

They have virtual schools in Ready Player One, where one advantage is that you can mute bullies or any other students who hate you. But the reality of absence of peer socialisation and organised PE and indeed outdoor playtime is horrifying in physical health ad mental health terms. I can see it being lapped up by those who want to perform the middle-class conservative evangelical homeschooling cultus to help destroy public schooling for everyone else, with minimum effort or learning how to teach on their part.

the problem with VR is that there's no haptic or kenesthetic feedback. you can't feel the weight of a wax tablet nor the resistance of your stylus as you draw on it.. there's also the lack of treadmill as standard.

The right wants to take gender out of classrooms, when actually there is a long history in America of everyone being gay. The Romans were actually all gay. Being gay strongly underpins our Judeo Confucian values upon which our modern society is founded.

Goddammit if this ep didn't make me all nostalgic for mama Amerika
My parents work in education so do a lot of my other relatives. Something I knew was going to be a shitshow when they tried remote learning back in 2020 was this, what about special ed? How will this VR learning be effectively implemented for kids who are mentally ill and developmentally disabled? Thats something a lot of this "school choice" shit just doesn't address. I remember on the Majority Report a caller who was a teacher brought that up to them as well. These charter schools either have the bare minimum or nothing at all when it comes to kids with special needs. Charter schools are already infamous for expelling students who fall behind as a means of maintaining their higher test scores, rather than invest time and effort into helping kids learn.

the problem with school is largely time based. it's a strict regimen and that prevents people from holding thoughts in their head long enough to really ponder them, and encourages them to flush all those thoughts away
@calisto789

It's also horribly un engaging. The common thing about school is that kids largely don't give a shit about it. No one's political worldview or philosophy was meaningfully effected or established by the textbooks they read when they were 12.

they definitely misunderstood the last part where Sturdevant said "there's a virtue to not being a distraction". He was seething at the fact that the New Yorker was going to report that a bunch of sixth graders were goofing around and screaming but he wanted to give off the impression that this was the future of education. imagine him like a principal Skinner trying to act like everything's under control to superintendent Chalmers. i agree the whole thing is dystopian but I'm lacking in media literacy yet even i was able to read between the lines 💁♀️ (i know none of them besides Will probably read the article)
