Alternative Math

This movie is just about post-truth as stated in its summary. It's not about teachers, parenting or political correctness. There is an objective fact and there are people who say that it is subjective. And since that fact is so simple and so well known when people say there can be different opinions about it, it becomes so fun to watch yet still makes you think.

Masterpiece. So glad nobody sued them for hurting feelings of any kind of....any person.

A remarkable film that shows one of the reasons why this world is falling back into the abyss. In this age of formalism and false correctness, which is only an expression of cowardice to speak the right things and the truth, pseudo-educated self-satisfied parents make idiots out of their children who, when they grow up, will be ignorant people who will not be aware of themselves or the world around them. Them. On the other hand, not only education, but also all other institutions are managed by largely incompetent, and very often stupid, formalists whose goal is not general well-being, but survival in their business positions.

This movie explains why we shouldn't be surprised that school shootings happen.

My review is the review of a teacher. who discovers "Alternative Math" as a brilliant masterpiece. sure, for the performance of Allyn Carrell. but especialy, for the smart way to present the essence of political correctness, dictatorship of studedents and parents, relativism as essence of social happiness. a great film. for the precise exploration, in absurde manner, at the first sigh, of a real menace against school. that did this short film a must see. as warning. as parable. and as recipe of resistence against few "sweet" demons.

I only discovered this little gem in June 2021. Had I discovered it in 2017, the past four years might have been a little easier. Don't let it drive you away early in frustration - that's just to make the payoff at the very end all the sweeter.
