We all know how brain dead education under capitalism which is worse now that Gen Alpha is around. Any possible alternate models outside of cramming a shitload onto 30+ kids only for them to forget it?

Mandatory schooling could probably be done away with eventually, yeah. Though I think it would be important to have some sort of social grouping and structure for kids- to provide opportunities for socializing, to ensure proper nutrition/exercise/that they're not being abused, exploited, that they have agency within reason and law, rather than being essentially the property of their parents, etc... in such a scenario.

Indeed, society should be a good influence upon children. Unfortunately today’s schooling often makes people hate reading and try to stop learning as soon as possible.
