Why don't you go to the free school, where you can examine the heritage of your favorite video game characters in great depth?
Or why not just stay home, and learn about real-world activities from the comfort of your living room?
The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum. That gives people the sense that there's free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate.
~Noam Chomsky
