    This is what reactionary actually means btw. The actual definition. It's a self-destructive clamping down on the inevitable shifts of civilisations.

    These people genuinely have no clue that the world has moved on and that publicly educated populace is now intrinsic to having a functioning society, even a capitalist one. It is the proverbial toothpaste outside the tube; it's not going back.

    At this point in time, to destroy public education is to destroy your civilisation, and I have no clue what the end goal of people who want it is other than "longing for an era that never existed" idealism.

      The end goal is very immediate power and money without specific regard to what happens afterwards.
