[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You all are moving to MD or NoVa and going to public schools over this? Where teachers and leadership have the same problems and no one is back to school. Makes sense. [/quote]

Some of what’s going on in this thread is conservatives who are mainly interested in their ideological agenda— breaking unions, harming public schools. (This is a big part of conservative ideology because local govts collect a lot of tax dollars and spend it on schools. So anti-tax/anti-society conservative are also anti-school.)[/quote]

No, this is the narrative you're pushing to get what you want. In DC, it's liberals who want the schools open, and liberals who want the schools closed. And some liberals (like me) have now reconsidered blind support for teacher's unions. That's a lose for unions in the long term. [/quote]

+1. This idea that the people on this board who argue schools should open are conservative trolls is pathetic. I do think there is a lot of political pressure on the liberal side to support continued closures until it's "safe" to return, which is why many liberals will keep quiet about their views on reopening in real life. It is exactly this pressure that the PP who keeps trying to politicize this wants to keep on and reinforce with these posts. It has been a useful tool for the WTU to keep the groupthink going and the opposition quiet. But it's despicable when you consider who is most harmed by the continued closures, and who has no voice in this whatsoever: kids.[/quote]
