    Teaching Kids to Think: Why Critical Thinking is a Dying Art

    Join my community -Chakkalo.com 📌Guest:Dr. Peter Bach-y-Rita – Ph.D. in Philosophy (MIT), J.D. (Stanford Law), Founder of Reason & Rationality 🔎Episode Overview: This episode isn’t just another theoretical debate—it’s about something far more urgent: the state of our information diet and the total collapse of critical thinking in an entire generation. Schools are failing to equip students with the ability to question, challenge, and discern between truth and propaganda. Instead of exposing young minds to adiverse range of ideas, we’re spoon-feeding them pre-approved narratives. Dr. Peter Bach-y-Rita is doing something about it. His program,Reason & Rationality, doesn’t just teach kids what to think—it teaches themhow to think. And no, I’m not getting a commission for talking about this—I just believe in the mission. In this episode, we tackle: ✅ Why today’s information diet is making us dumber, not smarter ✅ How exposing students to competing philosophies makes thembetter thinkers ✅ Why schools avoid teaching logic and intellectual self-defense ✅ The dangers of ideological isolation—onboth sides of the spectrum ✅ How entrepreneurs and leaders benefit more from philosophy than an MBA 🚀 If you’re a parent, student, or educator whoactually cares about raising a generation of independent thinkers, this episode is a must-listen. 🔗Links & Resources: 📍 Learn more aboutReason & Rationality →www.reasonandrationality.com 📍 Follow Peter Bach-y-Rita on LinkedIn → [Insert Link] 📍 Apply for the 2025 Program → [Insert Link] 📢Join the Conversation! Are we failing an entire generation by not teaching real critical thinking? Drop a comment, reply to this email, or tag me on social media—let’s debate it.

    Celebrating Terrorism? The Moral Collapse of Western Democracies

    Join me as I dive into the disturbing reality we face today: a world where terrorism is celebrated, and the lines between free speech and hate speech have been blurred beyond recognition. How did we get to a point where massacres are justified, and those who commit atrocities are hailed as heroes? In this episode, I dissect the twisted narratives being embraced by extremists, the global response to Israel, and why we must fight to preserve the principles that once protected free societies. This is not just about Israel—it’s about the survival of Western values. Tune in for an unfiltered, unapologetic breakdown. requestAnimationFrame((function(){window.__oai_logTTI?window.__oai_logTTI():window.__oai_SSR_TTI=window.__oai_SSR_TTI??Date.now()}))
