Continue the lyric.
We don't need no thought control.
From "Another Brick In The Wall" (1979) by Pink Floyd
Add it to "The Happiest Days of Our Lives" from the same album "The Wall"
When we grew up and went to school
There were certain teachers who
Would hurt the children in any way they could
By pouring their derision upon anything we did
Exposing every weakness
However carefully hidden by the kid
But in the town, it was well known, when they got home at night
Their fat and psychopathic wives would thrash them within inches of their lives
They knew more than 45 years ago that it was thought control taught by mentally ill people.
I’m familiar.
The song was about the school system repressing creativity and indoctrinating them into cogs in the wheel in post WW2 England.
The kind of thing similar to the just teach the three R’s and produce factory workers or similar.
Not everyone fits in that mold.
If the kid shows interest and skill in something different, like music or the arts, a trade, entrepreneurship, agriculture etc, their options are limited in that system.
Expand it. Give the kids options and opportunities to pursue their interests and talents. We’d all be better for it.
