Zuraya will win but we all know she'll be as useless as CDT and Priddy. Such a shame that ACDC runs this show otherwise Paul could have run as a Dem.[/quote] I don’t love ACDC either but they didn’t stop Paul from seeking their endorsement. That was all him. [/quote] The problem is your adamant need for the ACDC endorsement to support a candidate. Emblematic of the problem in the politics of our country as a whole. [/quote] PP here. My adamant need? lol, you know nothing about me. I just don't like misrepresentation. [/quote] DP. He never said he was endorsed by the Dems. He said he is a Dem. Going through the machine doesn't make you a Dem. Just ask Miranda. [/quote] hahaha, that's true. I hate that fake Dem Miranda is on the Board and was endorsed. I just think it's misleading that Paul is calling himself a Democrat, even though he didn't win, and didn't even run in the primary thing, whatever you call it. I don't remember anyone ever doing this ever. [/quote] What should a person who is a registered Democrat, supports the Democratic platform, and votes for Democrats call himself?[/quote] So you have just outed yourself as not even being from Virginia. If you were, you would know that you don't register by party in Virginia. I was skeptical of Miranda's party affiliation. Why can't I be skeptical of Paul's as well? He didn't even try for the primary. I would love a better way for Dems to prove they are real Dems. [/quote] Why are you so obsessed with party affiliation for local, non-partisan positions? And who or what do you think gets to determine/“prove” someone’s political affiliation? Kind of nuts….[/quote] Why are you so dismissive of it? With MAGAs crazies out there, it's more important than ever to me. [/quote] NP :roll: uh, yeah. Like there are TONS of MAGA voters in Arlington LOL. What a stupid statement, PP. :roll: [/quote] Oh they are here, especially in NA. Big overlap between MAGA and APE which is very very active in APS. Are you trying to keep this quiet PP? [/quote] Please describe their impact on APS and how specifically you have verified that their overlap with “MAGA” has effectively changed APS and caused harm to students. What policies have they put in place ?[/quote] [b]Miranda can’t do much because there is only one of APE officially on the board. But add a second or third and there goes our schools![/b] They tone down their Project 2025 ambitions for now, but it will all come out as more of them get into positions of true power. It blows my mind that Arlington is letting them get away with it. It’s like all of you forgot what happened in 2020-21. I guarantee you APE has not, and they want to ruin public education from the inside. It has already happened in liberal places like San Francisco and NYC. Wake up people before it’s too late. I’m sure I’ll get some hate and gaslighting from the APE’s on this board. It’s almost comical how predictable they are.[/quote] You speak exactly like a MAGA.[/quote] Huh? the APEs are more confused than usual. The APEs are the MAGAs. [/quote] I didn't accuse the PP of BEING a MAGA, just using the same hyperbolic type language of one. This is the problem in our society - people don't see that they do the same thing and deny it because it isn't the exact same words or coming from the same perspective. Add a republican and our schools WILL BE GONE! Elect the democrats and OUR COUNTRY WILL BE GONE, ELECTIONS WILL BE GONE![/quote] DP. Remember when we all said you put RvW at risk if you vote for Rs and you said “don’t worry, it’s safe”? Yeah, we DGAF what you say. Rs hurt women, schools, democracy, lgbtq, etc. [/quote] 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.[/quote] 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. [/quote] Again, I agree with you re the policies and positions. And I agree Dems are more based in reality. Doesn't mean they aren't as hyperbolic and closed-minded at times.[/quote]
