  1. There has also been a lot of fraud. Notice how every supposed "solution" is more or less dubious for one simple reason: it has no solid historical record of having worked consistently and well anywhere. But one thing the "solutions" all have in common is that someone will make money. True of charter schools, true of DEI "instructors."

  2. @MyPoptART  Makes perfect sense. Whether it be DEI or charter schools, the key is for money to flow upward. And it does. Cute how that works.

  3. @callak_9974  Why is it that the very best school systems in history did no such thing?

  5.  @callak_9974  Show me where this has worked. Is McDonald's going under? Pfizer? Facebook? A mantra does not make it so.

  7. @emilymiller1792  No, not usually. They are hired by private businesses or by school systems to teach employees how to "interrupt racism." (Before the recent war in Gaza, Norman Finkelstein wrote some pretty funny commentary on that.)

  10. @RadiusG60  A good education was a leftist value. Under Mitterrand, French kids could start Ancient Greek in 5th grade, and complete two years of college-level Mathematics in high school. The Soviets gave medals for achievement in Mathematics and Physics, not just music or sports. Le Monde printed notices of births, deaths, marriages, and doctoral thesis defense, and the student who wrote the best philosophy essay for the baccalaureate was interviewed on all the major media outlets. Mélenchon wants to bring back more Latin and Greek. By comparison, DEI, LGBTQ, and all this stuff look like strategies to make a quick buck, divide everyone, and turn them away from what matters.

  11.  @robzombie5928  How interesting that my post about actual socialists in Europe and details on how they give kids a classical education is . . . You guessed it. Every time.
