Pursuit of knowledge for knowledge's sake should be something celebrated, not ridiculed. the idea that universities are production lines for turning young people into soulless wage slaves is depressing as fuck. Universities should be ivory towers for exploring the heights of the human intellect, not for developing "commuication skills" to use in your burger king job. How crass.

It’s another form of modern day serfdom, there’s a lot of pressure to just get any degree no matter what because you ain’t shit without an edumacation. People take out massive loans that they are too young and retarded to fully understand and then when they graduate they are slaves for the rest of their life if they can’t get a good job to pay it back with. A lot I know graduated with debt only to be no further along for job prospects than a high school graduate.

The banking class needs these retards for fresh blood, it’s the most vampiric shit in the world today and most professors are your enemies not your friends.

Because historically no degree was worthless, but the threat to boomers from degree'd-up younger people meant that credential inflation was the best way to protect themselves from being replaced for being useless fucks. Why do you need 10 years of paper-filing experience for a job you can learn in a week, tops? You don't, but it ensures that boomers will hire other boomers. The president is 78, the house speaker is 80, the most recently deceased scotus justice was 87, the chief doctor of the USA is 81. These people never ever want to retire, meaning no position is ever freed up for you.

One of the biggest problems comes from HR/recruiters. Their job is merely to find candidates. Then they don't actually pass the information along even if the place needs people. Every job I've gotten has been directly from male managers. Recruiters and female HR will always string you along for months before ghosting you, while the job opening remains unfilled. They're the primary blockage point preventing people from being hired because they're too dumb to realize if you need someone to do the job you need to hire someone, you can't just sit around and fish hoping for the perfect candidate to come around. Especially in memedemic times when H1Bniggers aren't being allowed to leave India, they have no other options but are too dumb to hire people.

2d animation has a market believe it or not. It aint in a enterprise with a cushy office.

The dude should have made a twitter and a patreon and churning out huge amounts of cartoon smut online.
Just have to find a good fandom/niche, he could have had a professional portfolio for his career and a smut portfolio that paid his bills. I know 2d animation and drawing hentai is not the same thing, but it is a tangential skill. Should have started doing it his first year of uni, by the time he graduated he could had a massive following and a chunky monthly patreon payment.

I agree. Universities should be for people who want to spend their lives in pursuit of knowledge in their field. An elite few who solely focus on research with no need to waste time preparing students for future job roles.
There should be separate institutions for the majority of people who want to get a normal job afterwards with a more practically focused education.
