The education system teaches people the knowledge they need in their lives. The question is, do we need everything we are taught? No, we need just a part of it. Schools have always been under the control of authorities and follow their interests, not the interests of the people. As a result, we have way too much knowledge imposed on us by authorities, which secures their positions in society. Most of this knowledge is false. The essential function of education today is not acquiring knowledge but learning obedience to authorities.

Students have to accept false knowledge if they want to get a permit to work. That is how generations have acquired the wrong knowledge. Such knowledge damages the process of students’ thinking, which alienates them from reality, and prevents the development of society. Schools are factories for producing social powerlessness. We must get rid of the false knowledge the system of education provides. Furthermore, the authorities prevent the introduction of any knowledge to schools that might undermine their power in society. Such knowledge may improve society, and we need to teach it.

Natural sciences create knowledge about the physical world. They serve today’s elite well so that they are allowed to develop freely as much as they can. The natural sciences are beneficial to the whole society. Natural sciences are extremely developed compared to social sciences.

Social sciences exist to analyze and improve human society. But social sciences cannot do this because every improvement of society requires taking power from the elite, and the elite do not allow it. As a result, social scientists have built misdeveloped political, economic, and other sciences that benefit the elite and cannot improve society. Our culture is based on the power of authorities. Under the pressure of the elite, social sciences have never determined the nature of society correctly. Social science has failed to answer the fundamental question: What constitutes a good and bad society? The answer to this question is not only crucial for the development of society, but it is also simple.

Equal human rights are the answer to all social problems. Equal human rights have never existed in the history of humankind, and this is the only reason societies were never good. Social scientists do understand a formal need for equal human rights presented in the UN declaration of human rights. But this declaration is entirely non-binding. The elite prevent anything more than that, and as a result, social scientists do not understand the scope of the need for equal human rights. The lack of equal human rights prevents the progress of politics, economics, and humankind. By ignoring equal human rights, social scientists ignore the only chance of establishing a bright future of humanity.

Equal human rights mean that whatever is allowed to somebody in society must be allowed to everybody else, and vice versa, what is forbidden to somebody must be forbidden to everybody. Once society understands it, people will demand acceptance of equal human rights, which will take power from authorities. Once equal human rights are established, society will become unavoidably good. I have defined equal human rights in the one-page article Equal Human Rights will Build a Good Society Unconditionally

Political sciences study systems of government. It has established liberal democracy as a pinnacle of its development. Liberal democracy enables people to elect politicians who are supposed to represent their interests. But in fact, liberal democracy follows the best interests of the elite and not of people. Politicians need money to be elected, and they can get it almost only from the elite. By accepting the money from the elite, politicians have to follow the interests of the elite. The elite use politicians to oppress and exploit people the same way dictators did. Such democracy is, in reality, a hidden dictatorship.
