Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of equipping individuals with critical thinking skills to protect them from the biases and indoctrination that can occur in traditional forms of education. It suggests that true education should empower individuals to question and challenge information, ideologies, and narratives, allowing them to develop their own understanding of the world independently. Rather than accepting education passively, immunizing people against systematic attempts at education encourages active engagement and the development of their own knowledge and perspectives.
