Teachers Unions are nothing more than fund raising arms for the DNC. This problem with public education isn't new. I moved over from Catholic school to public school in the 7th grade back in the early 70s. I was blown away on day one when I looked at the textbooks we were given. It was literally at the third-grade level compared to what the Catholic schools were teaching. I didn't reach the level of what the Catholic schools were teaching in the 7th grade until I was in the 10th. I could get an A anytime I wanted. I remember a teacher calling me out in front of the class, accusing me of flaunting my intelligence in front of the other students for attention. Needless to say, my motivation matched the material and I did just enough to get by. I sure as hell wasn't going to set myself up for more ridicule for being too smart for my own good. That was close to 50 years ago. These problems aren't new. Teachers unions were just feeling their oats back then, going on strike every other year for one thing or another. We are paying the price now and will continue to pay the price as long as bad teachers are allowed to keep their jobs because it is easier to hide them than it is to fire them. One of the only good things to come out of all those insane COVID lockdown's was parents looking in and seeing what their children were learning. The pushback has started but the powers that be aren't going to just take it lying down. You've got the unions sicking the DOJ on concerned parents who show up to schoolboard meetings and school principals hiring people to monitor the social media posts of "problematic parents." A weasel in Michigan is being sued for doing that now, getting a woman fired because she posted comments that challenged his authority. He said he felt threatened and ratted her out to the woman's employer, who happily went along like a good leftist. This stuff is real. Tyranny is alive and well and they are training the next generation of Moaists right under your nose. The question is, what are you willing to do about it?
