Urmăriți filmul realizat de Neel Kolhatkar, un film care a adunat, într-o săptămînă, peste 1.800.000 de vizualizări. Dacă vi se pare distopic, gîndiți-vă la romanul lui George Orwell, ‘1984’, apărut în 1949, și la ce a urmat în deceniile următoare apariției.
‘Modern Educayshun’ nu face decît să arate ce poate deveni educația sub imperiul terorii corectitudinii politice, al justiției sociale atît de agresiv promovate încă de pe acum.
În final, ce spune însuși realizatorul, Neel Kolhatkar:
Thank-you everyone for viewing Modern Educayshun over 1,000,000 times, it seems to have hit a chord all over the world and I couldn’t be happier. I am proud that people of varying political affiliations have enjoyed the film but as its creator I need to make clear that it was never intended as a conservative statement. The crux of the film is the appraisal of science and reason – how extensive political correctness can hinder the pursuit of such values. Personally, I agree with many conservative principles like small government and a free market but I am also an atheist and believe an excessive amount of religion can have the very same effect. I have no issue with everyone enjoying the film and extracting their own meaning just do not hold me up as a champion of conservatism.
PS: Mulțumiri lui Paul Dragoș Aligică, fără a cărui semnalare nu aș fi putut împărtăși cu voi acest film.
