[quote=Anonymous]This "they don't even teach CRT" line has to be the most tired and disingenuous part of this entire debate.

The right just got in the habit of calling it CRT because the left refuses to name it, and "CRT" is snappier than "race essentialism & everything is racism" - so just think of it that way, and then maybe you'll understand.

It doesn't mean "we don't want schools teaching kids about slavery," it means "we don't want schools teaching kids from stupid powerpoints about phantom white supremacy." Google "Tema Okun" if you're still confused, and yes, ideas like hers pop up regularly in public and private schools, and to many normal educated people, seem utterly insane.

So, the parent perception in many cases is that things like gifted tracks and even basic reading (Google "Lucy Calkins controversy" or similar) are getting the short end of the stick while far-left teachers (Google "libs of TikTok") are pushing incoherent, time-wasting nonsense on the children in their place.

Meanwhile the parents are being told to STFU and foot the bill and "trust the experts," as if real experts would be caught dead pushing any of the BS that regularly comes home in the kids' school folders.

So... if you're curious why McAuliffe lost.[/quote]
