From the r/4chan post of Twitter screenshots detailing how these people would all be tarot readers and K-6 educators...
This is literally the best thing i have ever read.
This is like a complex french pastry, crafted by artisanal chefs, each layer, a new sensation. Each perfect complimentary flavor, a different emotion stoked up from the resting silt of your psyche.
A mouthwatering masterpiece of memetic mirth.
There is so much here, so much truth, so much sadness, such a depth of earnest longing that is usually hidden from us under layers of bitter irony and unbroken theoretical proclamations and rants on how to run the world.
They just want to be part of a small village, a community, to serve a integral purpose and be loved for who they are, and appreciated for what they do. But almost invariably, places like this, small tight-knit villages are right-wing, they are wary of outsiders because a small community is uniquely disadvantaged by even small changes brought by newcomers.
Almost all of the women posting their genuine desires are functionally describing being a stay-at-home mother in a small right-wing community. Cooking, cleaning, gardening, looking after the kids, supervising their education, advising, tutoring, observing who gets what and maintaining fairness.
But they cannot see it, they cannot comprehend they are the fool in The Gateless Gate, who is searching by the light of an oil-lamp for a way to cook their rice. In one breath they scorn the very thing and types of people that can and will provide them the environment their soul cries out for. In a toxic swamp of unfamiliar city-living and godless, soulless corporatist posturing, under the heavy pressure and the mind-breaking bullshit of socially-violent, politically correct 'simon-says' office-tier environments, these lost folk yearn for meaning in their lives, whilst having been conditioned to hate the very people that are most capable of providing that environment for them.
These are the last gasps of drowning men and women, the last writhing attempt at clinging to life, before being drowned in a polluted, fetid sea of corporate/governmental-conditioning and never-ending work, that will pump directly into their minds, as in The Matrix, the illusion that they are on the cusp of revolution, that they are the vanguard of change and the daring anti-corporate, anti-state activists who are humanities best hope to attain this simple life they dream of.
This is the last time they will even be allowed to know the color red exists, for all the pills henceforth will be blue.

They don't unionize for the same reason real engineers don't join unions. It's supposed to be a professional grade where you're not just a regular slob who's paid by the hour for dumb labour. In the past people in these roles would generally have their shit together as we had an effective system of bullying and hazing throughout teenage and early adulthood to ensure that if you made it into the professional world as and engineer doctor r whatever that you at least had some level of resilience and wouldn't cut off your pee pee at the first little crisis you hit

For all of their complaints about capitalism being selfish, why are all of their dream activities in the hypothesized utopia so self-centered? Like everything is about what brings them personal enjoyment or what fulfills their personal desires/passions. Even being a student is about personal improvement. Although this guys seems to want to do it perpetually.
If, as proclaimed, they love socialism/communism so much, why are all of these antiwork types not dreaming about making personal sacrifices for the greater good of everyone? I mean, sure, farming potatoes and rice might be boring and back-breaking labour, but these people should be happy to toil under the sun (for free) to provide sustenance for everyone in the community, right? Or maybe they can grind away in the steel furnaces in order to make housing materials instead.

They need the good grades to survive
it's like the stories about super rich people and adrenochrome
if they don't have a professor give them good person points they will deteriorate
I recently graduated and in most of the classes not related to my major I had to take, it was REALLY easy to get a B with minimal effort, and all you had to do to get an A was to prove you know a little extra. But that was the "hard" professors. Most of them just gave you an A if you turned in your work and repeated back factoids in all the right blanks.
People who looked like reddit IRL acted like their grades were mana from heaven, and they hated all my favorite professors because they were "unreasonable", "mean", and "hard"
Had pretty good conversations with a few of them about how they have witnessed decline in education over their career but that would make a longer and even more serious post than this one
Even in science classes I met a bunch of really boring people who thought they were a VERY smart hecking scientist because they could memorize the Krebs cycle and get an A on the test. Memorizing the Krebs cycle (in great detail) is not easy, but it's also not a big deal if you are taking a serious biology class.
A lot of people in college are very good at memorizing and following proceedures, but when a test asks them to use critical thinking or invent a new method to solve a problem on the spot based on common sense, they panic, then seethe, then make really bad cope reviews on ratemyprofessor
These walking examples of the Dunning Kruger effect often get into grad school, and are extremely careful to find professors who never push them out of their comfort zone, and they keep getting their critical supply of A grades that assures them they are right and smart. They've probably been addicted to educational validation since grade school, making it a pretty hard habit to break.
I'm reminded of red pants in this instant classic of a video:

Former Teachoid here It's pretty much the same story as the rest of western society "Let's not dab so much on the poors" slowly becoming "BIPOC LBGTQIA+ ARE BEING GENOCIDED AND IF YOU DON'T DROP EVERYTHING TO WORSHIP THEM YOU'RE PURE EVIL" Essentially vain and narcistic people are highly manipulative and love looking great, taking advantage of nice/naive/mild nature people who want to make society better. When nice people do something good, they look good, then the narcistic people move in and push the goalpost to BE BETTER SWEATY. This can be seen as thusly: LGBT thrown off build (BAD) -> LGBT being seen as people, minor things like gay marriage (GOOD) -> 1/3 of the year is now some way related to LGBTQ, children must learn the bussy, etc (BE BETTER SWEATY)
Essentially, it starts with someone saying "Why aren't x people succeeding, we can make this work!" to a narcisstic cult of people taking over the work, forcing the desired result to take credit. ( "Do people really need to learn calculus, algebra, how to read, etc to earn a degree etc." )
Longpost summarized for non r-slurs who won't waste time reading shit on a stupid drama website:
Vain people take advantage of nice people to look good, lazily move goalposts to points of outright stupidity to look better.

The professors I talked to didn't offer me a lot of theories on why it was happening, besides the ones anyone can come up with through observation, but they sure could tell me about what was happening, and the pressure they received to be "nicer" to students that would have been considered too rslurred for college 40 years ago when they began teaching are now just right in the middle of what is now an average student. The professor I'm thinking of right now said she gets a "talk" about every 10 years about how she is being too hard on people, and is basically told to lower her standards. "We can't fire you because of tenure, but also we can give you a lot of bullshit and the worst class times :)"
I knew it was bad when the first day of class she ranted about how we "ALL need to capitalize our "i's" when writing ANYTHING, not just essays, and she will not accept any arguments about it being "our culture" or having one high school teacher that let us write like txtspeak in 9th grade history class. I say this every semester and someone does it anyway every semester!"
That was my first day of college and I was in absolute shock lmao
