I can’t imagine any person in a proper state of mind would support getting rid of education. We need to make education about learning and not about production but I think as a society we need to emphasize learning and education as much as humanly possible
In addition to Rondomi's reply, I wanted to point out that I interpreted OP's post as perhaps implying that meaning, when they wrote:
This was further confirmed when the first result when searching "youth liberation" was this anarchist article that called schools concentration camps and unironically suggested the word "children" is equivalent to the N-word.
Oh, I was just thinking they meant the current education system needs work. (But jeez, that article is insane, I’m guessing some kid who didn’t like school wrote that)
They're just grumpy because their mum said it was bedtime.
Our conditions aren't conducive to maintaining a proper state of mind. After having been put through the barbaric, traumatic education typical to the west, I can understand why people foster a belief that education is bad by default. Like those put through conversion therapy who develop a disdain for psychologists. Or those wronged by their government who become anarchists. All three have applied to me in the past. When one is a victim of poor education and trauma, getting them to see the truth can become an extremely delicate act.
I suppose this is a reason. I still think logically and as a group we need to reject any assertions against education most fully
