A Southern California school board on Friday adopted a social studies curriculum that includes gay rights that was approved by parents and teachers after initially rejecting it.
Here’s a chilling glimpse of the future: children educated in different states learn entirely different and often opposing ideas of ethics based on where they live. Those children grow into adults, and the cultural divide in this country is deepened even more. War breaks out.
Already happening. Many of us in the south were taught the Civil War was about “states rights” and not slavery. 🙄
That has already been the case for decades. Many students educated in the deep south learned about “the war of northern aggression.” Texas had a brief period where science text books were required to have information on “intelligent design theory” (a religious idea, not an actual scientific theory).
Kids are studying social issues in a social studies class? OMGWTFLOLBBQBIOS
Considering many cousinfucker school districts all across the US are trying to abolish social and cultural learning and all access to political science. I’d say a governor taking a stand and making it clear anti-education curriculums won’t be tolerated, is a pretty big deal.
This shit isn’t being brewed up by the people in rural school districts, whom you so rudely slur as “cousinfuckers”.
It’s being brewed up by frat boys in right-wing think tanks — if we want a sexual slur, they’re not cousinfuckers; they’re Kavanaugh-style rapists — and sold to big, rich states like Texas and Florida first.
The ignorance isn’t organic. It’s manufactured deliberately, by people who did go to college.
This shit isn’t being brewed up by the people in rural school districts, whom you so rudely slur as “cousinfuckers”.
Defend them all you want, those cousinfuckers are the ones voting for it and committing violence for it.
Rude of you to think that all cousinfuckers are rural. Rudy Giuliani was born in the largest US metro and is a cousinfucker.
The people you are referring to are the cannon fodder. They have been deprived of education for generations and have grown increasingly insular, priming them to become tools of a propaganda campaign with the insideous message “you’ve been lied to your whole life…” (which isn’t wrong) “…so demand to be put back on top…” (as if these people were ever on top ) “…or burn it all to the ground.” Same logic as ISIS. They’ve been adopted into a death cult.
I don’t know if it was planned this way long ago but it’s a pretty obvious outcome in retrospect.
I don’t know what you’re basing this on. I’ve worked at rural school districts and they get Fox news just as easily as any Frat-bro. And they are more likely to be able to storm school boards.
The board voted 3-2 on May 16 to reject the curriculum, with some board members claiming there was not enough parental involvement in the creation process and making comments attacking Milk.
Yeah. I want a bunch of unqualified losers drowning out the professionals with their racism and hate.
What is with America and randos thinking they known more than actual professionals with a lifetime of work experience and learning? This is like epidemiologist hate all over again.
I work in education and I can kind of understand the response from the board. To me, it didn’t seem like they were against the curriculum, rather they wanted to cover everyone’s ass and make sure there was minimal backlash. I’m glad they new curriculum got pushed through though.
This should be a lesson for the rest of the United States.
