Time to make popcorn. What happened to trigger the APE haters this time? They’re not running a candidate. |
Nothing has to happen for them to be triggered, they are just unwell. I suspect it's spillover from their anxiety about the election in general. |
I mean people just need to pay attention. All the APEs commented on the new accountability standards to the VBOE using the same email template despite opposition from public school advocacy groups that actually care about kids other than their own. APS even opposed it. I recognized so many names. |
Both of these people who commented above are likely voting for Trump and Rives. |
Case in point… |
People were discussing how ACDC endorsement means nothing after they endorsed fake Dem Turner. Then some APE types started gaslighting. |
I'm a democrat and I agree with you. But Dems sometimes engage in the same type of behaviors they criticize others for. Hyperbolic talk, refusal to admit mistakes, inability to see their own hypocrisy. Pot, meet kettle. That's my only point - not that I agree with the republican agenda or policy positions. |
It doesn't take anything in particular to trigger the APE comments. Just slightly disagreeing or questioning something....that's all it takes. |
At least any possible D hyperbole is based in reality. Hello…RvW? They were (and still are) coming after women’s rights. They were (and still are) coming after LGBTQ kids. They were (and still are) trying to oppress voting. Trump is actively making autocratic comments. Youngkin was trying to cut school funding and has been pushing RW nuttery onto schools. Ridiculous to “both sides” this. |
It’s spillover from a-hole parents in our community attacking our schools and community. They want to pretend like it never happened while they continue to quietly push RW agenda. Don’t mess with our kids, MFers. |
DP. I went to the VBOE website and saw the comments that Arlington parents made. Wow. Here you go: https://townhall.virginia.gov/L/Comments.cfm?StageID=10441 I don't know how much proof anyone needs at this point to see that APE is actively talking out of both sides of their mouth pretending to care about APS but instead causes chaos that will be far reaching. The new accountability standards is a thin veiled ploy for RW extremists to take control of our "failing" schools and turn them charter/private. And who does that benefit? Not those who are being taught in those schools. |
So back to the original topic of the post: I am voting for Kathleen and Paul too. I think we would get more candidates if the ACDC endorsement process went away, but I am happy enough to vote for these two. |
Dang. Copy and paste by all of the APE jerks. I am impressed they figured out how to submit their comments though. It’s probably just as difficult as figuring out how to speak at the SB meetings. |
No but they should have some current connection, so they are invested in APS. Paul already is doing far less than last year, far less visible and involved now that he's not working in APS anymore, and his kids are gone too. How do you know he still cares about APS? What evidence do you have of his CURRENT involvement? |
DP. Do you think be doesn't care about APS? Why do you think he is running? |
