Problem-posing education does not and cannot serve the interests of the oppressor. No oppressive order could permit the oppressed to begin to question: Why?
Indeed, the interests of the oppressors lie in “changing the consciousness of the oppressed, not the situation which oppresses them”; for the more the oppressed can be led to adapt to that situation, the more easily they can be dominated.
Implicit in the banking concept [of education] is the assumption of a dichotomy between human beings and the world: a person is merely in the world, not with the world or with others…In this view, the person is not a conscious being (corpo consciente); he or she is rather the possessor of a consciousness: an empty “mind” passively open to the reception of deposits of reality from the world outside.

Yeah, you need to have focus, not because the bigger position is unreasonable but because it opens up a thousand different tangents that you will get people going on and the conversation can never productively resolve. Instead, just undermine the more important of those tangents one at a time in a very deliberate way, setting up the scope of your claims so it is very clear what you are saying and not saying and dismissing subjects (for the time being) that exceed that scope. You can transform the way someone views the general subject over time without ever needing to address it because that general subject is an accumulation of the more specific ones.
