Michigan Democrats criticized after dismissing parents' role in public education

I'm glad the public is finally getting wise to the marxist revolution going on currently and fighting it. The number of admitted republicans now exceeds the number of admitted democrats for the first time in a long time. It took a while. America doesn't want marxism and America will prove it.

 

The hell they do.

Parents complain all the time about their children having to learn a foreign language. Anyway, this has nothing to do with parents knowing better than teachers how to teach.

Teachers act in loco parentis at school. I can't protect your child from physical and mental abuse at the hands of other students in my classroom if I can't insist students behave themselves.

 

It is much more than “raising your own kids.”
Kids are moving on up in grade level without basic skills. Teaching is impersonal in Zoom, cheating* is rampant (they use Slack during tests).
They are graduating with grades, but without basic skills. Not to mention this “I don’t want to have to talk to people” stuff.
*BTW, what king of adult does a permissive attitude toward cheating get you?

 

"Marxist revolution?" Egads. Extreme rightwingers don't live in the real world.

So, Americans were oblivious to Marxism six months ago and now they're on high alert?

 

I'm afraid we do. If you don't recognize it then I would say you are in denial or support marxism. But at least you are in good company.

No i would suggest that they are just beginning to open their eyes. The high alert is still in the future. By the way I have no idea what your chart had to do with anything I said in my post.

 

Revealing that their first inclination is not to improve mathematic education for blacks but to instead try to dumb down the whites and asians.

 

Biden was elected on the premise that he would calm the devisiveness. Instead he implemented the far Left agenda. That's what happened.
The American people are getting wise to the destructive policies of the Left:

(1) Promoting chaos at the border
(2) Releasing dangerous criminals on little or no bail
(3) Destroying education in ways we used to discuss here,
(4) Inflating the currency.
(5) Exacerbating racial tensions.
(6) Criminalizing political opposition

 

You can't even say what your brand of Marxism is.

 

He hasn't been able to implement what some progressives want.

They need to turn people away.

Both parties have done this for years.

The CRT business is ginned up nonsense.

Would you have preferred a recession, maybe even a depression?

You can't blame this on liberals...

They get convictions.

 

I'll let you name it. I didn't know marxism had brands. I have always viewed it as being a proponent of the writings of Karl Marx.

 

Neo Marxism.

 

Some of the brands are Leninism, Stalinish, Trotskyism, Maoism.

 

It does according to the Trumpers around here who typically wouldn't know a Marxist if one ran up inside their pant leg and gave them a thrill.

Das Kapital is a tedious mess.

Who told you that CRT is "ginned up nonsense?"

Yes, a recession would be preferable.

 

The "ginned up nonsense" is the extreme rightwing claim CRT is being "taught" in school.

Good grief. That's crazy.

 

know what your claim is, I want to know why you believe it.

Here is a nice summary of the evidence it is being taught:

It's a long read because the evidence is so abundent, so you may not be able to withstand the cognitive
dissonance

 

Obviously, you have no idea how schools work. Some senior administrator saying something is taught doesn't mean it is taught, or that discussing CRT means the views of proponents are being pitched to students.

Much of the curriculum is so political that good teachers adapt it to reality,

 

And all very un-American.

 

NEO marxism.

"Marcuse champions non-integrated forces of minorities, outsiders, and radical intelligentsia, attempting to nourish oppositional thought and behavior through promoting radical thinking and opposition. ....."

"The intelligentsia is a status class of educated people engaged in the complex mental labours that critique, guide, and lead in shaping the culture and politics of their society."

"Modern industrial societies have furthermore created an "affluent society", which in increasing comfort have disguised the exploitative nature of the system, and have therefore strengthened means of domination and control. Modern "affluent society" therefore limits opportunities for political revolution against capitalism....."

"Max Horkheimer first defined critical theory (German: Kritische Theorie) in his 1937 essay "Traditional and Critical Theory", as a social theory oriented toward critiquing and changing society as a whole, in contrast to traditional theory oriented only toward understanding or explaining it. Wanting to distinguish critical theory as a radical, emancipatory form of Marxist philosophy,"
