[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven’t come across such a refined critique of woke schools. [/quote] It all boils down to limousine liberal. It's still the best descriptor of the kind of person who believes that a 60k private is about inclusivity or lives in a $2M house while caring deeply about affordable housing [/quote] My kid's $60k school is about putting her in the best circumstances to succeed, particularly after the train wreck the first couple years of high school were (dur to her own issues). Inclusivity never entered into the equation. I'll never apologize for that, or feel even one iota of remorse. But, it's your second comparison that I'd like to explore - "lives in a $2M house while caring deeply about affordable housing[.]" Is it your belief that living in an expensive house means that one *cannot* care about affordable housing? That is one truly cares about affordable housing, there is an upper limit to the value of their home? If so, what is it? That only people who live in an inexpensive home can care about affordable housing? It's this kind or "intellectual" (and I am using the word in its loosest possible sense) incoherence that we've come to expect from someone who uses the term "limousine liberal." [/quote]
