[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the OP of this thread is essentially admitting the premise of the thread was entirely farcical, created by a left wing activist to bait and fight with moderates and centrist dems who are looking for a balance in the ideological make up of the school board, and who might be considering alternatives to the D sample ballot. Most of this thread has been dominated by far left blue Virginia types, who have no arguments or positions to defend, only slurs and insults. I am not sure that this thread is going the way the left wing activists intended. Moderates tend to not like being insulted by politicsl activists nor are they big fans of insults as a substitute for debate of ideas.[/quote] +1000. The funny thing is everyone knows the Democrats will almost surely retain a majority on the SB. But people like OP are so insistent on having total control and squelching any competing perspectives that they immediately call people “stupid” and pepper them with other insults when anyone suggests some contrary views might actually lead to better outcomes. They are big fans of diversity, except when it might be diversity of opinion. [/quote] Diversity of thought is fine when it’s not an irrational disruptor trying to tear everything down. Please refer to Republicans in Congress. We don’t need chaos on the school board. Or another Elizabeth Schultz. [/quote] +1. People seem to forget that school board members don’t just vote on stuff, they are also supposed to respond to community concerns. Things people like Elizabeth Schultz did terrible job at![/quote] Elizabeth Schultz was actually one of the best representstives for responding to community concerns. She was very responsive and regularly advocated for people in her district. People didn't like her non- fcps related trumpy type positions. But strictly on school related issues, she was fantastic. One example is the Daventry rezoning. She worked with the Daventry families to help eliminate the handful of West Springfield Elementary zoned streets that were a split feeder to Lewis (zoned for Irving for middle school). Most of the women who worked with Elizabeth Schultz on that rezoning project were very much not from her political party and likely voted for Laura Jane in the subsequent election, but she put constituents before party politics and helped them advance the rezoning of their streets. Elizabeth Schultz was a good school board member who got booted over anti trump sentiment and alsl McDaniels pulling just enough republican votes to tip the vote to Cohen. In any other year pre trump, Schultz would have been reelected easily. She was a good school board member, in the right place but at the wrong time.[/quote] She was absolutely horrible. Most voters do NOT want another pro-White nationalist and anti-LBGQT school board member. https://bluevirginia.us/2022/01/what-is-glenn-youngkins-pick-for-a-top-level-education-post-hard-right-winger-elizabeth-schultz-hiding-by-deleting-her-thinkschultz-twitter-account https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/fairfax-county-school-board-member-criticized-tweet-link-article-claiming-transgender-men-struggle-mental-illness/1979476/?amp=1 [/quote] “Blue Virginia”?? And you’re actually calling [b]others[/b] extremists? [b]Sources with an AllSides Media Bias Rating of Left display media bias in ways that strongly align with liberal, progressive, or left-wing thought and/or policy agendas. This is our most liberal rating on the political spectrum.[/b] https://www.allsides.com/news-source/blue-virginia[/quote] The source is biased but the facts detailed out are not. Schultz is RWNJ who pushed white nationalist, antisemitic, anti-trans trash. FCPS does not need more of that. [/quote] Are you the troll falsely accusing others of lying? Might want to take a look in the mirror, liar. [/quote] Which part was a lie? [/quote]
