I took the liberty to split your post in two parts. Regarding the first part, I disagree. Most parents lack the practical skill and knowledge to train the next generation.
Regarding the second part, you don't need to know higher mathematics or any of the rest to raise a highly productive family or not merely survive, but thrive. You need to know how to grow and can food, how to hunt, how to weave and build. How to cook, clean, and tend to the trees, plants, and grass that make up the garden that is life. How to filter water without a brita, how to start a fire without a Bic, how to set a broken bone without an emergency room. How to provide "The Heimlich" or provide CPR without government certification. All skills and proficiencies dropped from school curriculum. All skills and proficiencies seen as "lesser" and in the realm of "preppers".
The fact, my friend, is that society has been demasculinated, had it's real strength destroyed, because a bunch of women thought, "I learn best by listening" when the fact of the matter is, men learn best by doing, and women as well need to apply what they learn, or all they become qualified to do is repeat what they've heard.
The US has become a weak society. And frankly? It's because men did not stand up and tell women to sit down and shut the fuck up after Vietnam, but instead allowed them to direct the course of how we raise our upcoming generation of men. And now, today, we're seeing the result. The Chinese? Men are men. Americans? Men are androgynous skill-less garbage, women are mouthpieces failing to act, the education system fails to teach anything but victim culture, infrastructure is falling apart, Labor Participation Rates are at all time lows, men are claiming to be women to get extra benefits, women are claiming to be men because they don't understand that men still bear all the responsibility without any of the training, and suicide rates are through the roof.
Now. I know real men exist. I see them. They tend to be criminals, they tend to buck the progressive agenda, but use it to impose their will on others. They are criminals, taught by women that they're toxic shit, and have bought into it and embraced it. So they use the Progressive deconstructionist agenda to impose their will, and we call them evil. Yet they're the truest showing of men the media will show us. Meanwhile, those who serve in the military because they believe our society is the greatest ever known? Are thrown out, because they voted for the wrong guy, or believe the Pledge means something, or thinks, "Hey, criminals are criminals, no matter their color!" Then they're attacked relentlessly until they can no longer provide for their family, and hang or shoot themselves to try to ease their family from the coverage.
Real men are being turned into a criminal class, so that women can rule a country that is losing ground so fast to a nation ruled by men, and only men, it's not even funny. Real men are being turned into a criminal class so that women can rule a country that lost a war vs a religious sect that has no high tech, no higher mathematics, but really REALLY appreciates their goats, and believes that men should be men, and women should be women, and we each serve our own roles.
This car ramming? Is no surprise. It requires men, real men, to maintain law and order. It requires men, real men to ignore the cries of victimhood from criminals. Sadly, with the fall of Joe Arpaio, I don't think any real men are left. In the US. Maybe China or Afghanistan will loan us some?
Yea...this isn't the 1800s Bob. Those skills are nice to haves but we have technology that renders those skills obsolete. I understand what you're saying though: you need a skill set where you can be self-sufficient and provide. I don't disagree and I believe the skills I listed are essential. We need people who can design the next generation aircraft. We need people who can retaliate against Russian hackers. We need people to push the boundaries of medicine. I can go on and on but I think you get the idea. IMO, part of being a man is pushing the boundaries so that our progeny will be better off.
I see a lot of animosity towards women in your post. Personally, I'm glad that women have more power because it creates more competition. If a man can't compete with a woman, tough luck, you suck.
