Addendum
This meme reminds me of
#IRLScholarBasilBernstein's explanation of the significance of education for understanding the world. And in doing so, makes inferences about the worldview of the person publishing the meme i.e. "When children fail at school, dropout, repeat, they are likely to be positioned in a factual world tied to simple operations, where knowledge is impermeable. The successful have access to the general principle, and some of these - a small number - those who are going to produce the discourse, will become aware that the mystery of discourse is not order, but disorder, incoherence, the possibility of the unthinkable. But the long socialization into the pedagogic code can remove the danger of the unthinkable, and of alternative realities" (Basil Bernstein, 1993, p.122).
