#The underclass

My favorite thing about GMMTV's teenage anarchists shows is the wide variety of ways their teacher characters fucking suck.

do you have any ideas about why so many students are struggling with literacy now? I know that illiteracy and reading comprehension have been issues for years and most americans read at like a 5th grade reading level but I’m curious why it seems to be worse now (pandemic? no child left behind?)

It is everything. There’s not one answer. I could talk about this forever so instead I set a five minute timer on my phone and wrote a list of as many of the many things that are causing this on a systemic level that I could think of:

It’s parents not reading with their kids (a privilege, but some parents have that privilege to be able to do this and don’t.)

It’s youtube from birth and never being bored.

It’s phasing out phonics for sight words (memorizing without understanding sounds or meaning) in elementary schools in the early aughts.

It’s defunding public libraries that do all the community and youth outreach.

It’s NCLB and mandating standardized tests which center reading short passages as opposed to longform texts so students don’t build up the endurance or comprehension skills.

It’s NCLB preventing schools from holding students back if they lack the literacy skills to move onto the next grade because they can’t be left behind so they’re passed on.

It’s the chronic underfunding of ESL and Special Ed programs for students who need extra literacy support.

It’s the cultural devaluing of the humanities in favor of stem and business because those make more money which leads to a lot of students to completely disregard reading and writing.

It’s the learning loss from covid.

It’s covid trauma manifesting in a lot of students as learned helplessness, or an inability to “figure things out” or push through adversity to complete challenging tasks independently, especially reading difficult texts.

It’s covid normalizing cheating and copying.

It’s increasing phone use.

It’s damage to attention span exacerbated by increased phone use that leaves you without an ability to sit and be bored ever without 2-3 forms of constant stimulation.

It’s shortform video becoming the predominant form of social media content as opposed to anything text-based.

It’s starting to also be generative AI.

It’s the book bans.

what did I miss.

“woman” does not exist as a “protected” underclass.

the illusion of a loving, determined, self-controlled & providing man is just that. an illusion.

“woman” does not exist as as a “protected” underclass.

the lies they sell you about the “easy life” of tradwives are exactly that. lies.

“woman” does not exist as a “protected” underclass.

if you give a man the power to feed you, you are essentially giving him the power to starve you.

“woman” does not exist as a “protected” underclass.

the couples who tell you how perfect their conservative trad life is, how functional & happy they are, how easy the wife has it– are selling you misogynistic propaganda to cover up the reality of housewives, disadvantaged women; women who depend on their husband’s mercy.

“woman” does not exist as a “protected” underclass.

the oppression of women is not merely tied to, “they are weak & soft and should in turn have a loving & logical man provide & protect them”. the oppression of women does not exist in a setting of a “peaceful dumb subordinate and her rational and loving head”.

“woman” does not exist as a “protected” underclass.

housework is only one form of unpaid labor. women have historically engaged in more physically exhausting & dangerous labor, unpaid labor– the role of a “gentle and nurturing housewife”, despite the role/labor of motherhood, childbirth & housework also being insanely dangerous & undervalued roles; is closer to a misogynistic myth than reality.

“woman” does not exist as a “protected” underclass.

marital rape is normalized. under a totalitarian marriage, a woman is not “protected” from rape. she is regularly raped by her husband. the law does not interfere since her husband has full ownership of her. to him, consent is given the second you say your wedding vows. marriage is an institution of oppression.

“woman” does not exist as a “protected” underclass.

nothing about our pain, suffering, and oppression is “protecting” us. quit using misogynistic language when trying to analyze systems of oppression.

If your "anarchist" advice is "do not take any significant risk and only push back within the confines of what society considers acceptable," consider the fact that maybe you aren't an anarchist, and that's okay

my honest opinion about caitvi is that the pacing is too rushed to make me super invested. there isn’t enough time between them investigating zaun and vi reuniting with jinx in S1 to really establish their individual goals, backgrounds and dynamic. what makes them similar despite coming from vastly different worlds? how can they improve themselves by being together? why do they need each other? they deserved a slow-burn

to be fair, pacing is an issue across the board with the show. it’s too ambitious and has too large a scope for the amount of time they had

watching underclass and I HATE TEE. PANG CLEARLY LIKES YOUR SISTER, EVERYONE CAN SEE IT. MEEN’S FRIENDS SAY THEY SHIP THEM AND HOW MEEN ‘Such a tsundere’ JUST KISS ALREADY

It's only gotten worse. Bob Hoskins is a hero to the working class of London for a reason, he really tried to raise his voice on our behalf <3 Gentrification is a not strictly a modern problem! They've been screwing us like this for over 100 years! That's how it's gotten so bad. Learn your history, learn how they fucked over your grandparents and your great grandparents, you can learn how they're coming for you too!

Throughout human history there have been modes of exchange and even commerce within most societies, but they were not necessarily capitalist. Capitalism is often presented in educational systems, journalism, and popular culture as the pinnacle of human organizing, a system by which humans, acting rationally, bring their goods and services to a common marketplace to make logical trades with one another, lowering poverty and improving the quality of life for everyone as they do. But capitalism is not predicated upon free exchange at all; rather, it is an all-consuming system whose central incentive is to extract value, or capital, for profit.

It does so by usurping the entirety of the lives of workers, including those who are enslaved. If this sounds extreme to you, just think about how many times you’ve been told, by your job or by a self-help book, that your personal value is defined by your productivity. This places capitalism’s economic goals at odds with human health. And because of this pressure to optimize value creation on the backs of, and at the expense of, workers at every turn in its development, capitalism has created a viral underclass.

Its cool that they dig up the fossils of these dinosaurs to kill each other over and over again

I swear V (not verdict day) is drawing some heavy ass inspiration from Equilibrium (2002) as well

it's so unbelievably short-sighted for any labor movement to try to secure rights for a "legitimate" group while leaving out a brutalized underclass. obviously in these situations the primary victims are the brutalized underclass but even the "legitimate" group is completely kneecapping itself. this is the consistent failure of american labor politics dating back to its inception. & if they recognize this issue they love to say "what if we just deported the underclass" (dating back to the american colonization society!)

DEAN: Let me describe my dream home. (cuts to a MoL named Clive who changed his name and got to retire in a charming cottage-style in Topeka, KS) DEAN: I'm not saying I have to have a jacuzzi but...I really like bubbles.

It's a ruse, it's a delaying tactic, but it's also partially grounded in truth. Dean wants to retire. He wants to be a destination, not a road junkie. He wants to relax in a goddamned tub. Really, it's just a souped-up vat of water, but it's been built up so much as to become some kind of impossible luxury for most.

WELLINGTON: Look, I'm just gonna stop you right there. Judging from your cheap shoes and faded jeans, I'm guessing the only house you're in the market for comes with wheels. I prefer [not to have my time wasted] by some hayseed.

He means a trailer by, the way. It's a nod to the car, but he means a trailer. He takes one look at Dean and he sees trailer trash or a homeless bum. "These things aren't for us," indeed. The outsider status is in part...economical and class-driven. Vagrants, homeless bums, country hicks in flannel, prostitutes...they don't get to have homes in the land of dreams.
