Satire 2

How is this an example of a satire?
It is funny how this guy is talking about not teaching children the one thing that is true which are facts. We base most of everything off facts and this guy is saying that the basic jobs in the world won’t need to know facts. This is ironic because we go to school and get an education in order to learn facts and the truth. This guy is also saying that we should listen to what we are told and be content with it. That goes against the truth of an open mind and freedom to think and ask questions. It also talks about how we are taught math or science but would we really need to know this for the certain job we want. It’s ironic because we go to school to learn all of this, science math English and all but do we really need to know this? He’s question whether or not a fact is something we need or something useless.
