Guest guest Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Since I am taking a course this term on Peace Psychology am in deep not only in the study of psychology, but also education, I find a lot of the unconscionable comments I heard frightening from people who study about the collective unconscious and the like. I suggest you take a look at the work of o Friere and others who understand the world we are presently living in and the need for education systems that work to more than sponsor a proletariat. Your dear elites have gone socialist in England, and I have been there. I wonder, if as I have, the people spouting the wonders of India's caste system have been dear, and if they were did they have any understanding of how differently they were treated in every store they went into depending on how they approached people and what they smelled of in a society that is very nonverbal and quick to catch on to who someone is. We have an elite in this society they are now busy dumbing our education system, setting up sweatshops in other countries, creating products to sell sell sell the latest version, stereotyping poor people into lump categories to dehumanize and infantilize them so they can never get out of it (many books are written about it by top educations...trying reading Falling Down by Barbara can't remember her last name now) and turning the middle class into low paid worker bees. This has not been fun or enjoyable. I joined this group, because I thought there would be discussion about Jung and his works for reflection in one's life and creating change. Obviously, many of you are interested in keeping the status quo and your own prejudices which have come to look like they are racist to be and intolerant of those who are not privileged. There are some of you who seem to be realizing what is happening now and what is needed. The rest of you seem like you are in a trance to me and history and Jung's teaching are only lulling you into numbness. I am sorry I sent that ad......I repeat the purpose was think about what it would really be like if there were a war on our soil....I am totally sorry I ever sent it.
