What’s up with the Tuttle Twins?

Anonymous
I’ve read them. They quote pretty classic economists and philosophers.

Anyone else read them?

Everyone? I have two kids in elementary school who are early and precocious readers and never encountered them.

I have been having conversations with my fifth grader about critical and logical thinking, not automatically believing what he encounters online, conspiracy thinking, etc.

I may show these to him as an example of a propaganda publication.


Absolutely have your precocious 5th grader read them. They’re about accountability and personal responsibility. It will dovetail well with all your social justice victim themes you teach at home and at school.


They're about teaching things in an incredibly biased way rather than presenting facts and allowing the reader to determine their own opinion.

If you only say "Social Security is bad" to kids without presenting the reason it exists in the first place, the pros/cons of its existance - that is 100% propaganda.

Also, you are insane.


Lol.

How do you think all the progressive wash DC private and public schools have been presenting material in literature, social studies, history, and even health class!?

You just not have kids in school yet nor know anyone who does.

I had kids in a qute progressive DC public school. Switched to a NOVA school where lack of "woke" education meant kids calling other kids "darkies" because of darker skin.

PS, no even " woke" education is not this!

Is this a satire version of the books or how the books actually read? I genuinely don't know. They are telling kids Social Security is a scam and to invest in crypto. This is... Real?

These ideas are dangerous. Accountability and personal responsibility corrode systems based on dependence and compliance. They make people more difficult to govern and less likely organize their lives around instructions delivered via mass media. Our democracy will dissolve if too many different ideas are tolerated. Ethan and Emily Tuttle must not be allowed in the public square. The narratives they explore and challenge are too fragile.

Oh please. The Tuttle video accounts are blatant propaganda to get young folks to buy crypto. So blatant, it is disgusting.

Sorry, didn’t quite hear you — did you read the actual books or is an Istangram snap of a comedic advert to an adult buyer sufficient for you and your decisioning making?

If only it was on tik tok and I could “hear” or “see” the book…..

Do people actually sit their kids down and have them watch this ahistorical slop?


How stupid.
No kids read books anymore.

Good point. Diversification is over-rated. We should teach our children to accumulate fiat currency only. What could possibly go wrong?

If the video encouraged critical thinking about the merits of diversification, great! It does not. BUY CRYPTO! That is the message in a video aimed at kids.

I bought the series for my kids and read one or two of the books just to make sure it was suitable for kids. It’s written from a Libertarian perspective. I thought the series would prompt good discussions with my kids.

The videos have factually inaccurate information. I would not trust the books. There are other sources for giving your kids this perspective better than this drivel.

The book producers kept the same names from when the series was about two little blond Mormon kids and yet we are now to believe the are Cuban American now

I guess they are targeting that demographic as the most gullible and right leaning parents can pretend they are into "diversity."


"The series involves 11-year-old Cuban-American twin siblings Ethan Tuttle and Emily Tuttle and their grandmother Gabby"
