Also most of history class... although they still teach the parts they like about ancient Rome...but none of the weird decline of the empire or bisexual parts.
And don't get me started on what they want to do with Arabic numerals.

You’ll never get me to use Roman numerals I’ll die before I do
Can I interest you in freedom numerals? We got I french fry, II french fries, III french fries...ummm shit the rest is starting to seem like it would be hard to illustrate with french fries, and hamburgers aren't V shaped.
Maybe we could replace the V with an O for our freedom numerals. What would replace X though? Double lightning bolts?
American science has been cancelled, Europe, China and others will take up the slack, leaving America to bang rocks.
California could keep running, who knows.
cancel culture has gone too far smh
And the parents and grandparents are the ones who should know better. They grew up knowing who Trump was, and yet somehow thought, "yeah, this guy is Presidential". Then he screwed things up, and they thought, "yeah, he needs another term". They took the "just ~15~ 30 days" ridiculousness and applied it to years and years of being in office.
We will still have science, it will just be directed to more salient questions like what the heck was that demon that attacked Tucker Carlson? and why do American men that drive large trucks get boners looking at pictures of Putin even though they are 100% definitely not gay?
