I've never wanted to become a teacher. Never.
My parents, for some reason can see me becoming one in the future, but I can't. Mostly because of how they always put teachers down. They do admit that there are good teachers out there that care about their students and what not. But, you know what? I can't talk in front of people, I can't teach well, and I don't want to be one of those people that gets lumped into a generalization so that I can be told that I'm useless. That I do nothing, and that I complain all the time about not being paid enough.
Maybe I wouldn't be one of those teachers, but who knows? Either way, I don't want to be one. The big problem is, a lot of people don't always end up doing what they want to, and I don't even know what I want to do.
If I end up being a teacher, whether I'm looked down on or not, I would want to be a philosophy teacher. I'd tell the kids that life is pointless. That, society is pointless. Getting a job is pointless. But, most of all, I'd tell them that school is pointless. It's a big, pointless, brainwashing facility where they make kids think "inside the box." They don't allow much freedom in thought or exploration. What is being learned at school is pointless. I'd only encourage them to come to class to learn how to think. That's what the kids need. They need to know how to think critically. It's true.
They need to be able to recognise that they don't need all this cyclic, pointless work. People are too focused on material things. That's the whole reason why society runs the way it does. They tell you that you want something, that you love it, and finally, that you
need it. But, you don't. You don't, but they won't let you see it that way. No. That's the whole reason for people having jobs. So, they can have money to buy these things that they don't need. Even if we did want something, why do we need to pay for it? Why do we need money? Now, I'm not a thief, I don't steal. I do pay for things. But, I don't see a reason for it.
We pay to get food, when, in the past, we would have been able to get the food ourselves. We'd be hunting and eating like all the other creatures out there. We've been sucked into this hyperreality, and there's almost no way out of it unless we can think against it. Think outside of it.
I'm not encouraging people to be thieves or to go around vandalizing things or skip school and not to bother getting a job no matter how much it sounds like I am. All that I want, is to have people realise that they might not need what they think they do, what society thinks they do and programmed them to think they do.
I simply want people to be able to think for themselves instead of having something like the government telling them what to think.
