Behavioral Engineering and Common Core
Posted by CarolSeer2014 9 years, 9 months ago to Education
From The Dosadi Experiment, by Frank Herbert.
Behavioral engineering in all of its manifestations always degenerates into merciless manipulation. It reduces all (manipulators and manipulated alike) to a deadly "mass effect". The central assumption, that manipulation of individual personalities can achieve uniform behaviorial responses, has been exposed as a lie by many species, but never with more telling effect than by the Goweachin on Dosadi.

Have fun
Here, they showed us the "Walden Fallacy" in ultimate foolishness, explaining: "Given any species which reproduces by genetic mingling such that every individual is a unique specimen, all attempts to impose a decision matrix based on assumed uniform behavior will prove lethal."
I'm hoping we can abolish Common Core before lethality sets in.
