(1/5) All the recent chatter about the #ActOf1871 reminded me of a conversation I had with a brilliant friend of mine in 2019. He's spent nearly a decade researching the Elites and how they are educated versus the way we are. One of his stories stood out to me in particular.
(2/5) He told me of a time when he got a rare opportunity to sit in on a 6th grade class at an extremely elite boarding school. He arranged the appointment under the guise that he was choosing a school for his niece. While monitoring the class, the Headmaster casually commented
(3/5) how they've been studying the "13 Companies" since they were in kindergarten. My friend put his hand up and said, "I'm sorry, I must've heard you incorrectly... I thought I heard you say the 13 'Companies'. Surely you meant the 13 Colonies." She looked at him and casually
(4/5) said, "No, you heard me correctly," and turned back to the class and continued on with the curriculum. He stood up and said "Thank you, I have everything I need" and he left.
Pretty profound, right? The Elite aren't BETTER than us or SMARTER than us. They are taught a
(5/5) COMPLETELY different curriculum than we are. An ENTIRELY different way of learning and speaking. They've been given the TRUE history while we've been given a watered down version of halftruths and omissions.
But I have a hunch...that's all about to change. 😏🇺🇸🦅
