That’s true. Also the modern world is incredibly hostile to diversity of minds. Everyone is just supposed to have the same kind of life from birth to death.
Do well in school by getting good grades for testing, then get a 9-5 job, etc. Dress mostly the same as everyone, have roughly the same habits, do mostly the same stuff as everyone else.
The entire concept of modern school is particularly depressing to me. So few people do well in that kind of environment of sitting in a chair since early morning, listening, memorizing and getting tested, never mind the collective that is often full of assholes and bullies, while the adults never have time. How is one supposed to learn anything that way? How is it that this terrible system somehow is the norm?

it’s depressing how schooling systems today are practically identical to schooling systems from a century ago
