And make no mistake about it, this didn’t happen by accident. It was engineered BY DESIGN.
For decades, our education system has been steadily chipping away at the very skills necessary for young people to engage meaningfully with the world. Schools have replaced critical thinking with standardized testing, rewarding students for regurgitating information rather than interrogating it. They have spent years sitting in classrooms where the goal is to find the right answer, not ask the right question.

By the time they reach college, they have learned that the safest path is to stay in their lane, follow the formula, and never challenge the system.
And then we throw them into journalism programs and tell them to do the exact opposite.
We ask them to question, investigate, and analyze when everything in their education has trained them to do the opposite.
