[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [quote]Brace yourself, because this is going to come as quite a shock. In 2024 it is bi-partisan and forward thinking to embrace phonics. People on the far left push it as, yes, a method of improving equity - in Fairfax County the NAACP was at the forefront of the push to include phonics in the curriculum that started in 2022. People on the right of course never stopped appreciating it, especially as it was erroneously right-coded in the 1990s. [/quote] It's a pretty effective way to get many people to turn off their brains, open wide and swallow all kinds of ish. Look at the attempt, particular 4 years or so ago, to paint the pursuit of health and fitness as "far right." It would have been just terrible if fear of a new virus caused a mass movement of people away from soda, ultra-processed food and daily dessert and toward daily walks, whole foods and limiting sugar. Imagine the losses that would have been incurred by Nestle, Cocoa-Cola and McDonald's if even 15% of the public who had previously patronized them abandoned their products to shop farmers markets, the outer perimeter of the supermarket and started walking a few times a week and doing exercise videos at home with dumbbells. Not to mention the harm that the pharma companies could have suffered from patients coming off some of their medications.[/quote] You lost me, how is this related to teaching phonics? [/quote]
