Definitely do it. Education is important regardless of what you see yourself doing with your life. Obviously you don’t need to pay to learn stuff, but good programs/professors can seriously broaden your perspective forever. Plus you’re going to meet tons of people along the way.

Don’t get me wrong, your time and money would be equally well-spent just buying a one way ticket out of the country and backpacking around for as long as you can. These also aren’t mutually exclusive.

Money stops a lot of people from doing shit they really, really wanna do. Experiences are priceless and money isn’t fucking real, anyway.

I think the biggest and most insane take away from this is that Osama Bin Laden actually had an incredibly liberal-pilled view. This is a fucking fascinating read.

There’s hard-hitting materialism, there’s obvious antisemtism and purely religious criticisms, but it’s all couched in a weirdly liberal view of american instutitions, consent of the governed, even a seemingly tacit endorsement of free market economies, etc. I’m having trouble telling how much of that he actually believed, or if it was all meant as a kind of rhetorical trick to basically say to the US, “by YOUR logic…”

Idk if I’d call socialism with chinese characteristics a dictatorship of the proletariat in the hermenudical marxist sense, buts its a fuckin start. It’s sure as shit 10x better than what we get in the US.
