[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]Because some DCUM posters think nothing of paying more than 10K for travel sports and giving their kids repetitive strain injuries from a young age, but GOD FORBID that they be accused of being Tiger Parents and push their kids into improving their cognitive reasoning skills with MATH. Then they'd be like ASIAN ROBOTS (yes, they're racist too). [/quote] Like the FCPS Superintendent, SB, and Gatehouse, there is widespread hatred toward Asians on DCUM.[/quote] More fake news. [/quote] I don't know if it's hatred so much as annoyance and a bit of bitterness. Asians and other successful minorities are inconvenient to the narrative that white supremacy is so powerful in this country that non-whites don't stand a chance as a group. When a group of mostly immigrants and their children outperform whites, the argument starts to fray. White people are annoyed that these asians are able to outperform their little Larlo and Larla? THEY MUST BE CHEATING!!! Standardized exams (which have been used since at least WWII) are susceptible to a special form of cheating that only asians engage in. These crafty asians send their kids to academic enrichment classes like kumon, AOPS and RSM from the age of 7 or 8 and continue to cheat for the rest of their educational years by studying more than everybody else.[/quote] No one said that studying is cheating. More fake news from RWNJs trying to spin up division. [/quote] The more you try to bulldoze yourself and shut people up, the more you prove the point that there is a movement against math. [/quote] You are a liar trying to spin up a manufactured political issue. GTFO. [/quote] I say this with a lot of compassion: you need serious help. Your emotional state is obviously on the edge. [/quote] I have zero patience for people trying to F with our schools, particular RWNJs who are trying to score political points. [/quote] And yet it was people like you that Fukd with TJ admissions.[/quote] Less than 1% of kids from the class of 2024 came from economically-disadvantaged. Out of a community with 36% eligible for FRM. The old admissions process wasn’t working. The new admissions process isn’t perfect but it’s a step in the right direction. [/quote] So when you fakk with TJ admissions to achieve racial diversity, it's a step on the right direction but when people point out how there is a movement to undermine math, they are RWNJs that are fakking with education? You can achieve economic diversity by selecting for poor kids. I think this is a mistake because you end up with a lot of less qualified poor kids but you are legally allowed to select for poor kids without otherwise changing the admissions process. What you aren't allowed to do is select for race and THAT is why they overhauled the admissions process. [/quote] They aren’t selecting for race. It’s a race blind process. [/quote]
