so just to be clear, some guy you've never met goes on a podcast and talks about how the education system trains people to merely accept things as true merely because a phd said it is so, and you believe him because he has a phd and says it is so.
i bet it's just a coincidence that everything he said was stuff you already believe. lol suddenly having a phd is the bright-line for credibility. i mean, as you said yourself, none of us have phds in education, so we aren't credible.
