Politics Project
Philosophy Project Reflection and Analysis
For my Project I decided to go towards the more political side of things, mostly because I really enjoy talking about politics. I name it "The Direction of Disaster" now you may be thinking how philosophy impacts a political project, but trust me it did. For my project I decided to write a well written argument or statement on what the hell is going on in our world. what we did wrong what we can do to fix it and how or why it happened or what caused us to not take care of ourselves.
During this part I developed more thinking of both sides of the parties perspective, and I really took that into account. I started watching more of Richard William who is one of the biggest influences of my project. (see top right photo) He has many inspiration videos and or educational ones telling kids teens adults and parents more about how society screwed up. I quoted him many times in my statement and really enjoyed doing so. I learned more about global warming its effects, though I figured out more of what I already know I was really able to see what was going on. I learned more about public schools their curriculum and what it was doing to modern day students. I learned that the current school system we are using has not changed since 1796, which is over 200 years. In literally two centuries nothing has changed. the curriculum is horrible to students it does not let them express ideas and passions they have, they are told to sit down shut up and listen. then later figuratively throw that info back up for a score. it is absolutely horrible. “Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” - Einstein.
My thoughts go not much father from here. Though I wonder a bit more about why we went in the direction we did. what i mean by that is why we didn't start noticing the changes and affects earlier. maybe technology was a hold back, but for a while we have hypothesis changes and such and then they came true and then we did nothing. its strange why so many people whine and complain but take no action, or minimal at best. what is holding us back from making this change and why have we not done it sooner? all mysteries to thin about, more things to ponder and wonder.
for my required digital piece I put together a slideshow:
