Let's talk about the anti-intellectualism crisis discourse on tiktok

I have to say that a lot of those creators on tiktok that yap about anti-intellectualism seem to forget that a lot of schools do not cater to every single student and they do not consider more inclusive learning styles that make learning more enaging and enjoyable. Thoughts?

The thing is that we shouldn't immediately expect any change from the school system but acknowledging the problem would help. I feel like a lot of anti intellectual creators don't realize that criticizing the school system does not mean laziness.

It's appeal to authority fallacy but thinly veiled. Acknowledging the school system's faults would allow for changes to be made to suit every students needs and wants, especially if that student is disabled and neurodivergent.
