philosophy isn't real, your life is a lie, everything you've ever known and loved is a social construct made up at some point to appease the human brains insatiable desire for structure.
And yet, philosophers still exist for some reason. Curious.
My German teacher was nuts, but mostly in a fun or benign way. She genuinely cared for her students, though, and there were a lot of lessons that had nothing to do with language skills at all.
I remember an argument between the spanish and french kids. the french kids were saying the spanish teachers were the most insane. The french kids the opposite.
It was quite heated.
They all looked at me and my other friend that was also in german looking for a tie breaker. "I don't know what your talking about. [The single German Teacher] is definitely the craziest." it was a point of pride. they were quite taken aback. She had been caught on the wrong side of the Berlin Wall and took several weeks out of the year to talk about both the holocaust and east germany and how awful they were.
and it wasn't the sugar coated 'murica-great' oorahrah that was history class.
I was on reddit for years, now lemmy since the reddit enschittification started. This is the best comment I've ever read. So many layers of truth, meme reference, and wit!
Physics, chemistry, biology, neuroscience, whatever other physical sciences are all the same thing when you get down to it, just a different applications of it for describing different things...
I never realized this but it seems logical. I grew up in a French speaking area of Canada, English is the second language, but the provincial TV was broadcasting Spanish lessons. From the earliest moment that I can remember watching TV, there was Spanish lessons on it.
