All you have to do to confirm how stupid Democrats are is to watch the "man on campus" interviews. It appals me to think how stupid these students are and that they think that I and other tax payers should pay for their stupidity. It's very simple questions such as how many states in America, what country in Japan in, who won the Civil war, who fault in the civil war. Simple s**t! Visiting students from other countries answer the questions better then the Americans.

Consider this: American "taxpayer dollars fund", all of Public schools! Also Universities, & their c*******t manifesto's, & brain washing activities!

Why do "WE" fund this heinous education institution? Why do we allow C*******t teachers, & their corrupt unions to school our children?

Why do we allow Corrupt, C*******t/Progressive driven "Un-Americans to continue to corrupt & abase our children?

[ Sorry...I do not know the answers to these very imporant questions....[ **YOU...Need to seek answers!]

One of the more extreme elements of the so-called conservative movement in the U.S. is an attempt to institute academic censorship by stoking the fears of c*******m. The extreme right has concocted the false notion that public schools and universities are trying to brain wash students with liberal, l*****t, C*******t/Marxist propaganda. This attempt is truly Un-American.

Not the way I see it, Dashy. I don't see how anyone can watch the way in which schools are trying to brainwash our kids into Socialism and woke culture and maintain that it is good. Do you not fear C*******m? That's exactly what they want you to do.

DASHY

What propaganda source do you rely on for information about woke culture in schools? Are you a teacher, student, member of a school board? Or just another right-wing agitator?

Funny you limit your list to teacher, student, member of a school board as if us parents and grandparents have no interest in or are unaware of the crap coming out of College students mouths these days. I went back to college later in life after an accident. I actually had a teacher I got into it with for "categorizing" me and other students in the room, some of which had no choice about where they lived. Her statement was that I move to my neighborhood because of the color of skin in that area. I told her she was ignorant and didn't know what she was talking about and as a teacher should know better then to cram everybody of the same color in a box. I told her that in itself define a "r****t". Needless to say she was pissed. Also had a history teacher who was retiring, it was his last semester and he told us he was going to teach wh**ever he wanted, what were they going to do "fire him". He talked more about what he read that morning "history" in the NY times then the reading materials assigned to the class. We were 17 chapters in before he lectured on any of the materials. I watch "Man on Campus" videos and the lack of knowledge of these college students is appalling. You should check it out.

I don't like the choices you gave me, Dashy. I have been both a student and a school board member. Let me just say that I am a concerned grandparent and citizen of this Country who is very concerned about what is happening to our Country and our educational system. Apparently you l*****ts consider anyone who doesn't fall in line and adopt your thinking as a right-wing agitator. The sources that form my opinions are many and varied. From the way parents are rebelling, in places like Virginia, to the takeover and tyranny of school boards who are trying their best to keep parents in the dark as to their children's education. It's unfortunate for the l*****t effort that these actions are leaking out and parents are finding out the t***h of what is happening. Have you read anything about the tactics of c*******t countries and their undermining of parents' desires for their kids? You might be well-advised to view these leaks as the "canary in the coal mine" rather than as barriers to the march of socialism. There are enough parents and concerned citizens in this Country who are being watchful with their intelligent and well-placed oversight that I think they should be listened to rather than labeled as agitators. These are not sheep, they are well-educated, moral people.

DASHY

Are you forming your broad opinion about "crap coming out of college students mouths" on your interactions with two of the teachers you had when you were a student? Did you have any good teachers? Both my daughter and granddaughter are "good" teachers.

Of course I've had some amazing educators but the topic was about propaganda and censoring voices outside of board members teachers and students. I gave you two examples of why our education system, which is paid for or supplemented by public tax dollars, should be open to ALL voices. I hope your daughter and granddaughter are good teachers but if they support silencing dissenting views, I don't want them near my family members who we teach to be open to all views rather you agree with them or not.

Proof of the Left's " liberal, l*****t, C*******t/Marxist propaganda " is all about you. It has been posted a lot on OPP. That your close your eyes, ears, and mind to it is your problem.

DASHY

How can your family members be open to all views if you want to censor discussion of topics you personally disagree with?

DASHY

My mind is wide open to the fact that the extreme right agenda is to stoke the fears of c*******m in America through censorship of books and other materials used in public schools. One of the aims of education is to help students move beyond their existing assumptions about the world. https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2022-02-20/op-ed-the-book-bans-attacks-democracy
