The silver lining right now is that teachers here are not forced to use the Prager material, and it’s currently being added as an option. I’m sure it’s just a matter of time before that changes though. It mostly comes off as virtue signaling for all of the dumb righties.
The real damage they’re doing right now though is the removal of gender and sexual orientation from everything. It’s rendering certain courses useless because they can no longer be approved to offer credit due to the removal of material that is pertinent to the subject.
Unfortunately, in Florida, “optional” with material like this means “a bunch of teachers will actually use it”
People will be surprised just how smart and dumb some people can be at the same time.
My “Magnetic Fields and waves” professor in a high end electrical engineering class. He knew his stuff, but would constantly go on about his love for Trump’s brand of conservatism and would become aggressive to people in class if he suspected them of being either a democrat, a socialist or Muslim.
I imagine he is doing just well in Florida.
I’d be curious to see how many teachers actually go through with it and start adopting it into their curriculums. I’m sure Florida is eventually going to use that as a metric to see how “indoctrinated” schools are.
Stop electing monsters to office!😡
Once again, the votes are rigged (gerrymandered). It’s some of the worst in the country on top of a conservative stronghold.
More of a uniparty state than anything else, really.
we need to use economic pressure to force small red states to merge with one another. cut off all federal funding, boycotts, etc.
Why?
And I don’t mean this as a rhetorical question. Can anyone please actually explain to me in a nuanced way why the fuck people want to go out of their way to pretend something very real doesn’t exist at all?
The marketing money comes from the a couple of billionaires who made their money in fracking.
Once you get that, you infiltrate a bunch of social trust networks, and get the people who are trusted by a lot of people to lie. Some will do it for approval, some for money. Then you push a bunch of petromasculinity to get people to think that it’s a core part of their identity, so they’ll fight tooth and nail to keep on burning stuff.
Thanks. That link reads like an unbelievable plot in a dystopian story.
