>>11691215>I didn't say capitalism has a shitty effect on schooling. >Having to pay for 60 year old books who's authors are no longer alive and that cover topics from 200 years ago is some dumb capitalist shitThis is you saying that you believe capitalism has a shitty effect on education, and inductively, schooling.
>I don't understand why education ebooks shouldn't be free, so everybody can get them legallyBecause this would imply scientists, writers, and the like working for free or on a fixed government income in which they're forced to write these books, aka communism. The written books are the intellectual property of those who write them, that's why they're not free. If they were government mandated to be free, this would imply that the personal possessions aren't individually owned, aka communism.
>Stalin's killings also have nothing to do with the educational system of the USSR, it's note even relevant, especially considering that he died in the early 50'sIt is relevant, for the reasons I just stated. A communist regime isn't good, particularly due to these killings, and therefore educational books can't be government mandated to be free.
