Seems very much like indoctrination to get kids to “fall in line” and enforced conformity, to try to remove independent thinking.
I’ve always hated the idea of that. What do you think about it?

My post history and reputation will back that I am left as fuck, but I love uniforms because I hate clothes and all the stupid ass stipulations society has purposely and inadvertently put on them. Spending any more than 5 secs selecting what’s gonna cover me for the day is already too long.
Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate all the ideological arguments made against them, and don’t counter them, I simply yearn to live in a world where we’re ALL on the same team and working together, and what one wears means fuck and all.
But uniforms still reflect the social expectations. I don’t trust the designers of the cloth to reflect everyone’s needs. My clothing for example needs to be flexible and durable enough for me to climb a tree and fall back down without worry.
There are 2 questions I ask myself when selecting cloth for the day:
Then we should work towards the goal that every kid has enough so they can wear whatever they want and it being accepted by the others rather then going the shortcut with uniforms and robing the kids, who want to express them self through cloths, of that choice.
False dichotomy.
You can change policy, but it’s extremely hard to change people. Burying your head in the sand and pouting that people should be the ones to change is going to achieve nothing.
