It's not the speed at which they teach you to read; it's the reading they teach you to read with.
I mean, yes it would be great if everyone could churn through at my 700wpm with 98% reading comprehension (12 years ago, and those have been 12 high-impact years). And yes, teachers are so fucking dumb it's hilarious. Except not. And parents are so fucking retarded it's hilarious. Except not.
What fucking morons would you have to be to actually think Santa and the Tooth Fairy and lying to your kids about everything; fairy tales and fantasy and and sweetness and bubbles and candy floss...could actually be a productive introduction to this world of horror and killing and deception and rape and paedophilia and exploitation...
AND FUCKING LIES. Always. For ever. No exceptions. Even the truth is a lie, if only for reasons of irrelevance.
Sure, selfish parents of the world, breeding away your unhappiness with the pain-killers of perpetual cycling...sure. Keep on with all that 'harmless' delusional fantasy.
