National-Anarchy in Secondary Schools

As a secondary level student and a National-Anarchist, I get to see first hand the failure of the Western education system. The average student knows very little about the real world, their only education on real world events comes from the liberal media and politically correct teachers. It is only too astounding to hear a student only a couple of years before they finish school and enter the workforce, asking the difference between the Australian parliamentary system and the American republic. The average student knows very little, if anything, about the past and what they do know is limited to the mediocre (at best) State curriculum.

I have always worked hard as a student to not only be able to read, write and understand mathematics but also to learn and understand the way our world works. The learning throughout my life that has led me to National-Anarchism has mostly been through my personal reading of history and politics; very little have I gained from education in school. The most I can gather from state schooling is that teachers are, on the most part, as uneducated about real world affairs as the average joe. A teacher may know the ins and outs of writing an essay, or understand advanced calculus but only on the odd occasion will you meet a teacher with strong political opinions.

I can give a single example of a well learned teacher throughout my years in high school. I had a History and European Studies teacher for whom I had a lot of respect for as his idea of teaching history was to not only explain what happened but why it happened. We discussed many topics and on one major topic (namely Dictatorships) we came to a similar conclusion; no man is born evil and no ideology is inherently evil and we can learn from the good and bad of every system, whether that be Hitlerism or Stalinism or anything else. To a political mind this may seem like quite a simple discussion but to the students listening to the debate, this was a revelation of ideas, never before had they heard an intelligent discussion of ideas between a student and a teacher, let alone one that confronted their previous Politically Correct programming that "Hitler was bad, the Nazi's were bad, thus every intricate detail of Nazism was pure evil."

I feel that if students were introduced to philosophical and opinionated literature at a younger level in their education, we may see more intelligent and moral generations of students heading in to tertiary education or the workforce. I'd like to bring back the idea of the Athenian forums, where students not only learned to read and write but also listened to the Elders debate and discuss ideas. The students not only learned how to carry themselves in a civil debate but also formulated their own opinions of the world. Rather than following a State run curriculum, where students are limited to the education the State wishes to give them, students need wider options in their learning; this will lead to a more intelligent and moral society.

As a National-Anarchist activist I try and spread our ideas as far and wide and the main place I do this is at school. Some teachers hate it, some love it but I give them no choice when I question what they are teaching. I also preach National-Anarchy in the most basics of school life; I find the idea of detention as a punishment to be abominable. A student makes a conscious decision to begin a course at a school, they must complete the necessary objectives to pass, if they decide to not attend classes or not submit work, they will fail. Issuing a detention for truancy does not teach a student responsibility, it solely teaches resentment of the education system. Failing the course on the other hand teaches real life consequences for being lazy and disruptive.

National-Anarchy can be practised and shared in any environment and the education system is a major institution that needs to be totally revamped and the best method to do this is through National-Anarchy.
