This Is Today’s DFL

As the educational/industrial complex becomes more politically militant, look for more of this.

So no, Ashley (!), while parents may not “get a say” in your lesson plans, they do have one in whether you’ll be teaching them.

I know I did.

  1. LOL. When I was in practice patients had no trouble telling me what was wrong with them and what treatment I should prescribe.

  2. Patriots!

    Did you know that North Dakota tops the list for number of high schools offering computer science classes? The Great State of South Carolina comes in at #2.

    What state is dead last? Minnesota.

    But hey, after the kids finish their gender studies, explore the intricacies of sodomy, protest in favor of infanticide and apologizing for being White during struggle sessions, who has time for science?

  4. Never before has a school teacher made such a compelling argument for home schooling!
    It has been noted before that colleges of education accept the applicants with the lowest SAT scores, yet graduate nearly all of them with high GPA’s.
    Miracle, that. I suspect that is the model used when teachers write their lesson plans.

  5. “Mayor Jacob Frey has nominated Brian O’Hara, deputy mayor of Newark, N.J., to serve as the next police chief of Minneapolis.”

    Newark is the role model Minneapolis is following, so this makes perfect sense.

  6. UMMP, the model curriculum for MEd degrees was crafted by the teachers union to guarantee graduation in the minimum amount of time, with the minimum of effort. It’s like a law degree from the University of Samoa.

    I make that comparison because like lawyers, there are a few really smart teachers, surrounded by a sea of incompetent twits.

    Quick rAT, google up an inchoate quote that has nothing to do with the disaster unfolding within your cult!

  8. Third try to avoid moderation:

  9. Because all those parents, a third of whom have degrees that were harder to get than an education degree, have absolutely no clue about what makes for a good education or not. This is especially the case for those STEM graduates who watched their friends who couldn’t cut it in engineering and physics because they couldn’t do math walk down the road to the college of Education.

    And never ever think that parents who’ve learned about how to maintain long term marriages know anything about why they wouldn’t want their kids to attend drag queen shows.

  10. What most parents want schools to do is educate their child to match his potential and graduate a well adjusted human being who will find fulfillment and success in the world.
    That is not what teachers think their job is.
    Parents will spend the rest of their lives living with what the teachers do to their child, for teachers it is “so long and good luck!” after nine months.

  11. The thing that just boggles the mind, is that when I was in grade school, the PTA was fairly well attended by parents, including my mom and several of the neighbors. Fast forward to the 90s when my kids were in grade school, the schools were literally begging parents to join the PTA. Now, does that group even exist? It would follow DemoCommie mantra if they quietly dissolved them, because now a pox on any parent that even tries to direct educational efforts. In fact, I haven’t heard about PTA for years, but then, my kids have been out of the public screwals for over 15 years.

  12. “Before you know it they’ll be banning books…”

    Yeah I’ve heard about the left trying to remove Little House on the Prairie, Mark Twain books, and Dr Seuss.

  13. Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn is frequently banned because it has a main character named “Nigger Jim.”
    But it is actually an enlightened novel for its time. “Nigger Jim” is a good fellow, though quite simple. He is a slave for historical reasons, not because his blackness meant that he was only suited for slavery. There are white characters in Huckleberry Finn who are bad human beings, that treat Huck much worse than “Nigger Jim” treats Huck (and vice versa).
    Huckleberry Finn was published in 1885. Really nasty racist stuff in lit lasted from ~1890 to the end of WW2. That was the so-called “naturalism” era of literature. The races were considered almost mutually unintelligible and in a state of constant Darwinian competition. One race could only succeed at the expense of the other races. This was the era of Joseph Conrad, Jack London, and on the more pop-lit side, Sax Rohmer, H.P. Lovecraft, and Robert E. Howard.

  14. I was in Forsyth, Georgia yesterday. There’s an historical marker noting that Joel Chandler Harris, the author of “Uncle Remus” grew to adulthood there, and worked as a typesetter and layer, columnist for Monroe Advertiser.

    I was amazed to find the marker unmolested, then I remembered I was nearly 90 miles from Atlanta.

  15. I should mention that on the opposite side of the town square of Harris’ memorial, stands a statue featuring a Confederate soldier representing the volunteers of Monroe County. It’s pristine, too.

  16. My Dad’s people came from the poor side of Booneville, and Sedalia, Missouri. Missouri is usually said to have been a “border state” in the Civil War. Missouri controlled traffic up and down the Mississippi River. Lincoln could not afford for Missouri to secede. Democracy had to be voided.
    So Lincoln sent federal troops to Missouri to arrest and detain the state legislators to prevent them from voting for secession. The Missouri legislators fled to avoid arrest, met secretly, and voted for secession. Lincoln declared the vote invalid because, in his opinion, the legislature did not have a quoram.
    Missouri was not a border state, split between pro-slavery and pro-freedom partisans. Missouri was a slave state occupied by federal troops at the start of the Civil War.
    I think that Kentucky had a similar history.
    History matters. The truth matters.

  17. BTW I am a direct descendant of Squire Boone. Squire Boone is my 4x great grandfather. Can’t hardly get more American than I am.

  18. UMMP, Maryland suffered the same fate as Missouri.

    The US federal government forced Democracy(tm) and Unity down the people’s throats at gunpoint…it’s still doing that.

    And every single horror predicted after giving black people equal rights has come true. The consequences and burdens of slavery are borne by all of us.
