I prefer watching educational videos on YouTube more than watching television, but it’s tedious digging for good content, and I’ve already seen most of the good stuff while searching for videos to put in my blogs. In case anyone else is looking for entertaining educational videos on YouTube, I made a series of posts with all the ones I’ve used on The Wise Sloth, organized by topic, with links to the posts they appear in. You’re bound to be enlightentained, and if you need help exploring the 600+ essays on The Wise Sloth, these video lists offer a quick overview that practically summarize my philosophies.
This list comes from my essays on education and focuses on the importance of knowledge and improving public school systems.
Education is the silver bullet to the world’s problems
The glass ceiling of higher education
It’s time to stop oppressing the academically disinclined
We need to do more to help people get the job they’re suited for
The quality of our leaders reflects the quality of our higher education system

Public education these days, in my country at least has become about training kids for the workforce. Whether thats being a manager or flipping burgers, they really arent too bothered about expanding your mind, just testing the shit out of kids and putting them into some nice pidgeon holes.
Of course education wasn't much better in my day, pretty much everything of value I learned outside of school.
A proper education can only be gained by the rich; the controlling class of tomorrow need to know philosophy, politics, Latin and so on, so they can run rings around the less educated masses.
