GATE = Gifted and Talented Education, it's a part of the American system. Basically kids are put through a screening test around grade 3-4 and some are selected by the results of the test to go into separate classes, sometimes separate schools for a day or so each week. Here they are given the most advanced memes the state has in order to ensure they follow the rest of the cattle, or better yet, become the left wing memes and get handed the keys to the gate.
There seems to have been two categories of G.A.T.E Students. Category 1 was kids that after the G.A.T.E program seemed to have been 'selected'. these kids seemed to have been groomed for specific classes and all pursied advanced stem degrees or political degrees, these kids also seem to have been helped along towards that end. Category 2 are kids who 'didnt get selected'. They found themselves in poisitions where their education was sabotaged from middle school on, refused entry into honors roll and other things that would make children that would otherwise be high achievers give up and become massive underachievers. People from the chans are category 2.
Is it confirmation bias? Was anyone else here a G.A.T.E. kid? What's your personal experience?
Other similarities, less common but still a few exGATErs agree on these too:
>Interest in /x/ phenomena >Heavy early twenties drug period >Forehead scares >Early speech therapy >Oldest or youngest child >Migraines >Israeli art student girlfriends (not even joking) >Meme Magic >Premonitions/prophetic dreams >Above average intuition
Idk if they called it GATE but some of the schools I went to had programs similar to what you describe.
They were wholly welcome and damn near necessary. Moving to a school without one felt like getting bumped down to gen pop.
See: that episode of Malcom in the Middle when the Krelboynes lose their classroom.

Art students were commissioned to paint a mural at a prison. The whole wing was closed for maintenance.
Jonathan Lewis
It's both, the most suspicious ones were actual hook nosed inbred kikes mysteriously appearing before SHTF. Freemasons are a shabbos goy club.
Ryder Rodriguez
I was in gate. The speech therapy and forehead scars are both true which is unsettling.
As much as I’d love to have been a part of some secret underground training program where my life trajectory is plotted out for some unspecified special purpose....it’s not. I’m very average professionally (went to a top university but w/e) and besides coming here, there is nothing abnormal about my life or really the lives of my friends who participated in the program.
Any correlations of experience can be explained by selection bias. There is no reason to believe gate was anything more than another experimental educational program that failed....exactly like the rest of our education system.
Anything more is Harry Potter tier fantasy.

Brandon Hughes
>five pointed star >in the logo Never noticed that while I was in GATE. Anyways Category 2 here, the only category 2 from my cohort: all the rest are pretty successful save for one savant Korean dude who caught a case of the schizo
As for the "symptoms" >+ /x/ phenomeno >+ 20s drug period >+ early speech therapy >+ oldest or youngest >+art student gf in college(not Israeli tho) >+meme magic >+migranes >+prophetic dreams Not gonna make a call on my intuition but generally its pretty sharp.
So what was the point of all this? A social experiment; and if so, are we the experiment, the control, or the outliers thrown out of the dataset?
yeah i was in the program as a kid. let's go over the checklist.
my mother was a waitress and my father was a laborer, so as a lower-class kid i actually was given a lot of attention and resources that would've helped me be more of the kind of Category 1 person you described. i don't feel like it was sabotaged...i actively rejected the idea of using Muh Big Brain to rot in a dorm at an expensive college while the real world kept spinning.
also interested in the paranormal, have chronic headaches, abused drugs in my early 20s, am an eldest child, and an occultist
what made you think of this? i haven't thought about it in years.

Also remember that fluoride in the water is made to destroy your pituitary gland.
My guess is that the burger government made a secret plan to destroy and/or control gifted people.
The last century presented an accelerated rate of seers, prophets and gifted individuals that all came to a crash with the hippie movement, the fluoride in the water and now the social psychosis, the LGBTQ movement, etc.
Joseph Rodriguez
This, I was in the gifted classes and more of the list is true about me than not. I'm not anything special at all. Delusions of grandeur are unhealthy, anons.
Jonathan Ward
The military industrial complex is run by satanists
gate kid here, it just meant you were a functional kid
the system was so stupified that any child with a functioning brain seemed smart when compared to his classmates i dropped out of the program by the time middle school came around
Brody Powell
>Church of Satan journaI the Cloven Hoof, next to his wife Lilith , pulling a Basic Instinct pose for the camera. Too good.
Nathaniel Gray
I'm not saying it's impossible, just highly unlikely. Maybe I was a washout or something. I only kept in touch with one guy from the classes and he's a semi successful drug dealer. Or maybe this I don't really enjoy the company of people too much
Christopher Ramirez
Yeah no. You were in special ed for the disruptive kids with emotional issues. They told you you were "gifted" and needed special encouragement and stimulation because they wanted to keep you from throwing your desk across the room. t. special ed teacher.
Leo Perez
i was in GATE. Now i am the CEO of a billion dollar company.
Fuck, i love GATE
Luis Parker
Before gate there were "alternative" programs and schools. Runways for the dropouts.
Justin Williams
Right side up is more akin to Vetruvian man /eagle on the dollar bill. The Pentagon is a powerful entity. Is it /ourguys/ or My Pet Goat II ?
>is retarded >can't talk and bangs head Nothing too weird about this user.
Carson Lewis
Gate here. Did honors all through middle and AP classes in high school. Graduated engineering degree. I cant remember a single thing we did in gate? Just bits and pieces. I remember those colored shape cards. And those big headphones for hearing tests. Nothing else
Cooper Martin
>I cant remember a single thing we did in gate? This. The headphones I only remember because you brought it up now.
Bentley Green
I remember a lot of Spanish classes, a few plays we looked at, and a lot of cultural stuff. Guess that's brainwashing according to this thread.

I've had dreams all my life of a great war. In all my dreams I am running from/fighting something. All my other dreams are exceedingly strange. > intuition is spooky good, but rarely listen because I have really negative self-talk.
The most interesting bit about GATE to me was the curriculum and my middle school GATE teacher. Pretty sure she was Jewish. I loved her at the time, but she was a mysterious person. I have to admit she affected me more than any other teacher I had. We spent three years studying Ancient Egypt and dissecting news media. She was always emphasizing symbolism. My group was small. There weren't many of us.
I would have definitely been a Group 2. Insanely smart on paper, but a very broken person. Bullied to extreme absurds in school. Passed over for everything. I genuinely felt fucked with for the first 24 years of my life.
That being said... I'm sure GATE was a selection-ground for some kids, and I wouldn't be surprised if they sabotaged the rest of us. But idk if it was legit part of a "mind control" program. Some dude on Twitter explained it all to me. NotsureIbelieb.jpg
Carson Martinez
It's great when they start flapping and screeching.
No it wasn't you dumbfuck, it was all the asian kids and nerdy white kids who were brought up
Jack Rivera
Nah, they were all good kids. Like goody two shoes type kids. I'm probably the only one that ever spent time in the principals office.
Aiden Morris
Those headphones were overbuilt for tards. They had to be indestructible and they also had to filter out a lot of exterior noise for the ADHD crew.
Caleb Richardson
I don't know what you mean. I just VAGUELY remember using them for something. Not speech therapy or anything. There was no reason for the to be indestructible. They were oversized though as I think. Very few memories and I was in it for my entire school life.
James Walker
Isolating the gifted is an essential part of heirarchy.
Seal Team 6/DevGru guys are just step in a tighter and tighter pyramid. Noticed and then chosen to volunteer to try out at every level for the next one until they hit the Dilbert principle. It takes 12 pogs to support one grunt, it might take 50 grunts for 1 sf, 20 sf for 1 seal, etc.
Semester at Sea is a selection mechanism for rich liberal open minded slightly gifted students to be introduced to Nelson Mandela and Naomi Campbell type projects in Africa. They have an 'Order of Minerva' group on the ship that's shared with alumni. It might be honorific but it's otherwise a secret. I don't know if it ties in with Hillary/Europe thing I can't find anything specific online.
There's now an entire university program named Minerva where the same selection is amplified.
James Gomez
No nigger, it wasn't. Gate wasn't regular honors classes even if they did shove you into one or two for socialization in the hopes more stimulating education would calm your ass down. If you were in gate and they sold you that lie, I almost feel bad for you.
Blake Lopez
Was group 2 Was given 4x the dose of abilify Given paxil Put on risperdol until i gained 30 pounds in 2 weeks 100% sure my life was sabotaged Im deacended from minor nobility and some pretty well connected people I assume they saw potential in me Then realized i wasnt willing to hurt anyone. And that i asked questions How many of our lives were ruined on purpose If we ever get power back from these people do not spare their kids and families unless they were victims too Make them watch their loved ones die
Grayson Turner
I was in a similar program, did a lot of art/music history, anthropology, and practical science applications. It was the only part of school I enjoyed.
And yes I did have migraines as a kid, but that's because cafeteria food is shit.
Asher Jenkins
>colored shape cards Dont recall that but a psych did a test on me where I put together a puzzle made of red and yellow pieces. I think it was to test mental rotation. That sound familiar? You Might have been tested for early development
Sebastian Cruz
>honors classes Nigger this shit happened in third grade, there were no honors classes. The little chinese girls in GATE did not need very much convincing to sit quietly and learn, so your explanation is doubtful
Jordan Sullivan
They were oversized because potatoes had to do hearing tests as well. It isn't difficult. If you were in actual honors classes it wouldn't be that hard to parse.
I was in GATE and had everything you described except the Israeli girlfriend, lol. I remember it well, they made us to dumb shit like read sherlock Holmes and do mock trials and basically a bunch of stuff I didn't want to do as a kid. Program ended in 6th grade for me
Landon Martinez
There are very much gifted programs from kindergarten up, nigger. Look kid, you're a fucking tard. Period. As a teacher I'm sorry the system failed you but you weren't in any special spy program, you were in a program to keep idiots in check and from disrupting your peers.
Henry Bailey
>honors I was in gate in first grade on.
Adrian Robinson
You were in SPECIAL FUCKING EDUCATION from the first grade on.
Brayden Martinez
There were similar programs in Canada and it's literally exactly as you said. The good goys were given extreme support and pushes and had teachers and administrators take "special interest" in them. I always assumed it was because I was a repugnant person that nobody ever took a special interest in me despite always being at the top of my class, but maybe it really is a conspiracy. Either way, I was one of those kids involved in some extra-curriculars, but not a ton, and never able to get awarded a leadership role despite good public speaking, exemplary grades (was literally valedictorian), and showing interest. But I also had a healthy disrespect for authority and wasn't afraid to speak up and ask questions. Not to turn this into too much of a blog post but I just assumed I rubbed people the wrong way (which I probably do) but it never really occurred to me that those people who did advance in the high-achieving classes were not afraid to "play the game" and suck up, and that always pissed me the fuck off.

Someone's just bitter he has to go tend the monkeyhouse again when school starts again in two weeks.
Robert Long
Oh, I thought you were seriously making a point earlier. GATE was instituted from above, so it was up to something. I should not have assumed you were serious.
Michael Brooks
Yeah, got out when they started the WASL lead-up. The system is entirely broken.
Daniel Jones
Is this why in 5th grade I did self study math in a room by myself and after completing the entire 8th grade math book I got to play Oregon Trail for the rest of the year every day?
Brandon Robinson
>someone's gonna need to redpill me on this Look up "Zersetzung" and be careful who you date..
Yeah my brother is a high school teacher in the Canadian public school system and he is pretty disillusioned with the whole thing. I expect him to either try and get involved in administration or to go get more educated (he's one of those smart people who became a teacher for a real love of teaching).
Thomas Cook
Top 2 percent on every test I have ever taken. Either special ed can make retards into top performers or you're completely full of shit.
Michael Edwards
I was in this program but was definitely category 2. I was wondering why there were so many chinks. They would give you extra work on top of your already existing workload and sometimes take trips to disneyland and such. Eventually dropped out of it because i disliked school in general. Questioning things is not what school is for.
Henry Miller
Also fuck you memeflag kike
Noah Kelly
This desu, I don't understand why someone would spend so much time in this thread to call everyone a sperg...which should have been self-evident just by them being on Jow Forums at all
Xavier Jones
anyone remember the blood draws? i had forgotten all about them until some user mentioned it on a previous thread. a few times i was brought into a dimly lit classroom, blood was taken, then i was left to relax for awhile and then went back to class. our class was in a trailer on the edge of the school.
Looked like that kind of but they were blocks painted in red and yellow to make odd shapes (a star, a box, things that should be easy) but the blocks were weird so they often required forward planning. The test was for SSI so I assume it was to test for development/disability in certain areas. If he got the same, type of test he might have developed early in that specific part of the brain or they thought he was a tard.
William Scott
I already covered the issue. Special ed isn';t just for potatoes. They hand;e the assholes with emotional issues as well. Doesn't mean you can't add.
Parker Young
>As a teacher You dumb niggers live with your necks under the boots of the school admins and do whatever the fuck they are told without a second thought. Most elementary school teachers (that aren't crotchety old masons) are 20-30 something know-nothing permachildren who can barely follow their own curriculum. You are not nearly as qualified to contribute to this discussion as you think you are. I promise you, you have no fucking clue what actually goes on behind the scenes of your district.
I used to think these threads were memes until I saw an user assblasted enough about one to become the highest volume poster in the thread.
Jack Diaz
Colors don't matter as much but sometimes less color variations can be less distracting. They have them in black and white as well. They can be paper cutouts, cardstock, plastic, wood, etc.
I was in the gate program from 6th grade through 8th grade, highschool they just stuck you with the upperclassmen so I kinda skipped 9th grade, I don't remember any overt propaganda outside the normal holohoax semester, and the school I went to wasn't Pozzed with nogs and fags so we never dealt with that shit. Been redpilled on jews since I was a kid, my grandparents knew what was up.
Teachers were very pissed when I told them I wasn't going to college
Was in Gifted programs since grade 3 after I was given an IQ test. Of course I didnt know what it was, lot of puzzles and pattern recognition stuff. My experiences do not mirror the GATE program though. We were put into different classes altogether.
Noah Hall
proof it
Lucas Peterson
Was it when they were really pushing blood drives hard? Did this happen around 2006-2009?
Eli Collins
Keep talking you ignorant slut, you have no fucking clue.
