It isn’t anti-UBI to suggest that tools and resources be made available to people to help them ask and answer the question, “What do I want to do now?” I’m not advocating that that they be graded on, or coerced into, completing this learning, but rather that it be presented as an option. As long as our Education system requires us to be programmed into the current hierarchically managed, extrinsically motivated mindset, there should be a counter perspective made available as well. In an ideal world there wouldn’t be this programming, and therefore no need for de-programming, but that is not the current reality.
I agree with many of your points (at least in theory) and really love all things Fuller. I also think it’s important to recognize that the skill it takes to figure out that you can do what you want to do now is directly related to the one that enables you to figure out how. For some it comes naturally. For others it doesn’t. I’m curious whether it would come more naturally for more people, if it weren’t trained out of them by our current system of learning.
