Get ready for a full generation of weak minded morons now that the Dept. Of Education is gone. It can always get worse.
Eh, we've had that generation for awhile now.
Public schooling has never fostered critical thinking skills.* If it did, students would be asking themselves why they have to work so hard while rich kids don't.
Public schooling has been best at rewarding people who are willing to take abuse while punishing those who do not. It's main purpose is to create effective servants for the ruling class.
It doesn't need to be this way, but it is and will stay until we decide to change our culture.
*I've had great teachers that have gone above and beyond to get students thinking about the bigger picture, usually history and literature teachers. I'm thankful to have met them and studied under them. It's sad seeing how their hands are tied when trying to really educate students about the world around them.
Umm, removal of DOE does not remove schools.
Maybe not yet. But that is the ultimate goal. That’s not even a slippery slope fallacy. Poor people don’t need an education, let them start working when old enough for school. These are goals they are working towards little by little. If you don’t know that you are not paying attention. You are just hearing what is said by known liars and believing it for every little step until the goal is met.
And it will get worse. It’s been getting worse. Orange dick is just an additional progression of it all.
