Never have I been angrier for the education in this bloody school since now. Never have I seen arrogance at such immense levels in which these advocate of socialism and or communism have I seen. These people, these bastards of little worth, are to me the worst of mockers and the worst of what is represented to me. Today in class of sociology we were talking about social gratification. What I got was a rant about the woes of the American poor and how suddenly all white people are the devil except for the chosen few in class. Apparently my teacher decides to mock me by claiming I am nothing more than a brainwashed worker under the guise of ‘false class consciousness’ which basically means I apparently am not ‘educated’ enough for my own good to be an anti-wealth brat. I know my work at McDonalds is comparably simple and minor compared to other jobs, which are necessary and I know perfectly well why a CEO gets paid the big money, I know well enough a CEO makes those big decisions and has much riding on the shoulders of those decisions and I am paid for the work as promised. I know the purpose of a company to make that big profit, and I know the reason why my work is easily replaceable, since McDonalds work is not all that hard as say the work of a lumberjack or a god damn coal miner, and my teacher calls me brainwashed and uneducated to not believe that some magical ‘fat cat’ is controlling my work ethic! The arrogance of this astounds me, let alone calling me out as some uneducated person by some political rhetoric masquerading as a learnable subject.

Actually that is really old sociology then. There are three types of sociological theories with prominence as I recall. One was based on Marx, the other on Weber, I dunno. Marx focused on social class and class conflict(And this was an important advancement in many fields; history for a long time was only focused on politics, war, and the top individuals of the age. But this theory had gaps. Another theory focused on the impact of social groups. The other focused on individuals. In a PROPER sociology class, you will learn that each theory cannot explain every aspect of crime for instance. Why do people commit crime? Is it because of their neighborhood? Is it because of class conflict making people angry? Is it an individual choice? Each question is needed to get a complete picture of things. Don't let said class get in the way of sociology. Sociology can reveal things such as how the death penalty is worthless. Said class should have discussed the problems of thinking that class is the cause of crime. As crime is committed at the SAME RATE by the rich and the poor. The rich just happen to commit crimes that are harder to trace. If you really want, I can find my old textbook and give you the title. I am surprised that he is teaching sociology if he strictly believes in one theory of why crime is committed and such. And just for the record. Don't correlate a group of ideologies against some crappy teacher. I wrote this in 3 minutes. |
