The Montgomery County Board of Education will no longer post on X, formerly Twitter. We encourage you to follow us on Bluesky, Instagram, and Facebook. Thank you.

That's one way to NOT be transparent. The goal of the BOE should be to reach the greatest amount of people. Instead, they are throwing some type of political temper trantrum. If anyone doubts that the BOE isn't political, I have news for you.

More corruption from that ice queen Silvestre. When is her term up? Need to get her out ASAP.

Silvestre is no longer BOE president. Yang is.

Most legitimate organizations have quit X. It’s a cesspool. That is not a political move.

BOE is an elected position btw, by definition it’s political.

It’s odd that you believe X is still relevant.

It is objectively weird to pretend X is not extremely relevant. I dislike Musk but I am not delusional about the relevancy of X. If anything, the influence is growing.

Bless your heart. It’s the opposite. Its influence has been waning for more than a year. It’s essentially unusable, unreliable and irrelevant today.

The BOE heard otherwise in just a short time since their silly decision. How you like them apples?

You really have a penchant for right wing talking points and movie quotes.

Do you ever have any original thoughts of your own? Ever?

Naw. The timing makes me think it was one of the new ones who pushed this. My money is on Laura Stewart. Just the type to make such a short-sighted move based on woke vibes.

Makes you wonder how this decision was made if it was unmade so quickly. The BOE is a mess.

I give them credit for reversing a bad decision and doing so promptly.

You know what, jokingly enough the BOE might've as well just made an account and make their own sub on Reddit.

Reddit itself is a joke, I have never stepped foot onto anything involving Reddit for years now.

Silvestre needs to go. She lead MCPS into the ground with her bad decisions. I'm willing to give Stewart a chance. She did well at the last meeting.

I felt they were doing everyone a public service by not using X. It's just a source for Russian bots and falsehoods.

Have to disagree. If Stewart was behind this, she deserves a medal!

I wasn't able to watch the last meeting. What did Stewart do well?

+1 takes a lot of leadership and courage to make a decision like this and then reverse oneself within hours due to overwhelmingly negative public feedback.

No. I don’t even watch Maddow so no clue where you got that. And I am unfamiliar with her talking points.

Twitter, which used to be a neutral platform, has itself become highly political.

Ummm… Mark Zuckerburg’s contributions of millions to the Democrats and political targeting of posters based on Biden administration recommendations??? Enmeshed? Yes.

You need to update your talking points.

Yes, now we see that he is sucking up to Trump to get a foot in the door on AI and mergers. Does not change the fact that Zuckerberg and his platforms blatantly and openly supported Democrats.
