A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

Isn't it sad that most people dislike(ed) or even hate(ed) school? Shouldn't it be fun and exciting?
School can't be fun and exciting all the time, otherwise kids would just have 8 hours of recess every day. They still need to learn math, spelling, reading, and science, and despite it not always fun. Ideally there should be a balance that tries to maximizes both education and a child's mental health.
The point of school (until collage) is to scare you away from further education with bullshit subjects and make you into a perfect wage slave.
That's entirely not true
It is when you don't go to the good schools, it depends almost entirely on your economic class. The better the area you live in, the better public schools tend to be or you're more likely to be able to afford a private school where they actually educate you. My wife went to a super ghetto high school and they didn't teach those kids shit except to shut up and do what your authority figures tell you to do, and pretty much everyone I've known from poorer areas had about the same experience. In America you're not likely to get a real education unless you or your local taxes can pay for it.
Soooo your advice is to give up?
I know about the school system
I wasn't giving any advice, I was making an observation on what I've seen, please don't equate the two.
What would be your advice then?
