Bingo!
The whole heart of the matter!
Modern (meaning left-oriented!) education undermines the concept of "knowns (ergo what you know!)" and refuses to teach you the skills to find out what you don't. All that you will be told at a later date by your betters!

Modern (meaning left-oriented!) education undermines the concept of "knowns (ergo what you know!)" and refuses to teach you the skills to find out what you don't.

These leftist SOBs would like nothing better than to have opponents who lack the skills to PROVE them wrong.

Without the skills to achieve mathematical "certainty" for ones conclusions, it all becomes "just your opinion."
