Yeah, I'm familiar with Paulo Friere, his text "A Pedagogy for Liberation" was required reading for many teacher training courses in Australia in the 1980's. The original "Critical Theory" was developed by the Frankfurt School Marxists in America in the 1950's (I think). It was a diabolically clever blend of orthodox Marxist theory mixed with Sigmund Freuds theories of the subconscious mind. The most notable proponent of Critical theory was the "Frankfurt School philosopher and Marxist Herbert Marcus, In the US in the 1960's he published two two very influential text in Critical theory: "One Dimensional Man" which was a withering attack on American capitalism/consumer society/technological rationality and "Eros and Civilization" in which he argued that American capitalism and cultural institutions - where became referred to as "the establishment by his student followers - repressed the human sex drive (eros/ the Freudian libido) These texts becam a large part of the intellectual foundation of the hipp/counter-culture movement. It was Marcuse who championed the doctrine of "free love"/sexual promiscuity among US college students and he who coined the well-known motto "Make Love Not War" when America became entangled in the war in Vietnam in the mid-1960s. Marcuse ultimately became a counter-culture Guru and played an important role in forming the radical "New Left" political movement in America". He was a brilliant, though misguided thinker who wrote some of the most sophisticated and compelling utopist prose you will ever read (esp:"One Dimensional Man"). At the end of the day, though, he was an obsessive hardcore Marxist whose sole aim was to destroy capitalism and the United States.

why would someone get 2 BS degrees? And a masters is a stepping stone many skip over to a PhD he didn't apparently merit.

Most people I know have PhDs from Minnesota, Yale, Harvard, UCSD, Columbia etc graduate programs. Tops in the world at grad level.


NONE are Republicans. You people are fucking morons and everyone at my level knows it.

Why do you get to vote? Why do you even have first amendment free speech?

Why would a supposedly smarter than anyone on the Right or in the Middle Leftist resort to ad hominem and insults as a rebuttal?

Africa is a the cradle of mathematical sciences for the world.

Really? So why is africa such a sewer now?

I saw this last week, and one of the arguments these idiots were making was that an integer could range from +/- .5 of it's value so 2.4+ 2.4=4.8 could be written as 2+2=5 after rounding. However, the equation was integers strictly, so it's really just sophistry

HAHAHA. So that's the "argument" they're using!!

Racist scum

Yes he's extremely racist but those points are mostly true though. As to the reasons, now that a whole different kettle of fish. Here is a black grandmaster called Pontus Carlsson, he's of Colombian origin and was raised in Sweden. Oh and FIDE says there are 1661 GMs!

I have two BS and an MA (Did it for fun. Easiest degree I got) but who's counting...

That is meaningless unless you say what your degrees are in. Only STEM degrees are worth bragging about.

Education has to be privatized. Govt can't do anything right. You have to have competition.

And all these PHDs you know got their degree is some useless easy verbal subject like etruscan mythology. Those don't count. Only STEM counts.

West Africans are extremely intelligent especially those that go to Christian schools.

Yet despite being asked many times you've always refused to say anything about your own education, why is that?

Industrial Engineering and Computer Programming. The MA is in military history but that's just a hobby for me.

He'll never tell you what his educational level is, I've asked him many times.
