[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you to everyone who has been pushing back in this discussion and elsewhere.  I am not sure how to pierce through the insanity that has captures so much of the education establishment, but it needs to happen.  A significant course correction is necessary for the sanity and education of today’s students and society generally.

The left seems to be suffering from some sort of mass psychosis.  They need to wakeup or be removed from positions of influence.[/quote]

Oh, think of the children![/quote]

Yes, actually.  This is a school forum.  Children are actually what the focus is here.  The fact that you mock that idea says everything—you are more concerned with pushing some objectionable gender or racial ideology than you are with what is actually good for kids.  You shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near kids, including own, if you even have any.[/quote]

You want to take away people’s kids bc their political views are different from yours? But the progressives are the ones we need to fear.[/quote]

Keep politics out of schools. [/quote]

It IS this simple.

Keep politics and indoctrination out of schools, you Evangelists and Wokes and Scientologists and Communists.

Schools are for Education.[/quote]

You don’t even know what any of what you said means. Just capitalizing random words like your orange god. [/quote]

Views of history and society they agree with are “education”; views they disagree with are “politics”[/quote]

Need more schooling on fact versus opinion. reporting vs OpEd. [/quote]

Mmmhmm. For example, “opinions” like African American history, which Ron DeSantis has banned from Florida schools before it can brainwash anyone into thinking about slavery and its legacy. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/01/19/politics/ron-desantis-ap-african-american-studies/index.html[/quote]

Right, DeSantis’ approach is stupid and frankly absurd. Kids should be able to confront uncomfortable opinions in school. But that also should hold true for ideas the progressives hold as orthodoxy. I do not understand how as a culture we seem to have collectively agreed that kids should go through life never encountering an idea that makes them the slightest bit uncomfortable. There is very little air between what DeSantis is doing and the “safe spaces” academic progressives demand. [/quote]

What topics or issues are being rejected for conversation or debate by progressives?[/quote]

Didn’t Fairfax public schools kick out parents even asking questions about the new k-8 CRT social studies curriculum? They illegally disallowed discussions on it with taxpayers and shut down the public meeting.[/quote]
