as the discussion on nihilistic_kid's page went about this: no tyranny of grades, no cheating. until recently i would've thought things like that were bad, but now considering the intolerable amount of work students get that doesn't further their education or empowerment (actually disempowers them), it makes sense. of course one can argue that some that use it are scum or whatever, but i guess i just think grades are structuralized violence, and so cheating to me--even if immoral--is a much less of a concern.
