[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The open schools movement is a cynical strategy created and funded by Republican operatives to lie to and divide communities at a time of national crisis in order to stoke outrage that translates into vote shifts and an evangelical takeover of the public schools.

OMG - are you serious!?!?! I wish!!! There's no funding here. It's a bunch of moms (and I guess some dads) trying to keep their kids educated, while not joining the millions of women who have already had to leave their careers during this pandemic. It's parents of special needs kids who haven't recieved a damn bit of education in a YEAR. It's parents of kindergartners and 1st graders who haven't seen the inside of a classroom in over a year - or EVER. It's families that can't afford private school. It's families that that work in essential fields and don't have access to child care.

I'm about as far away from a republican as you can get - and I can safely assure you - this is an actual real issue, affecting real people, and real children - who are just suffering - while self righteous people like you try to dismiss it. [/quote]
