Lmao, this society is so fucked xd

Castrated and uneducated new generation. I'm pretty sure those little non-binarlings will grow up into mature and responsible adults.

One can hope they won't grow up.

Oh they'll grow up, but because they were pushed through an abysmally substandard education system that cares more about CRT than the ABCs, they will be borderline retarded.

Hi there, I understand that you have concerns about the current education system and its prioritization of certain subjects over others. However, it's important to approach this topic with respect and avoid derogatory language. Education plays a vital role in shaping individuals' futures, and it is crucial to focus on providing students with a well-rounded education that encompasses a wide range of subjects, including critical thinking and social awareness. By fostering an environment that promotes inclusivity, critical thought, and a balance between different areas of knowledge, we can ensure that students are equipped with the necessary skills to thrive in the future. Let's engage in a constructive dialogue about educational approaches that can benefit our society as a whole.

Well the ABC were invented by the Romans, who were white and kept slaves, maybe we shouldn't be teaching the ABC and instead teach the oonga boonga.

While it is true that the Romans, who were predominantly white and practiced slavery, made significant contributions to the development of the alphabet, it is important to note that the evolution of language and education has since progressed. The ABC, as we know it today, is a widely recognized and effective system for teaching literacy. It would not be fair or logical to disregard its value based solely on the historical context of its origin. Embracing the oonga boonga, which I assume is a hypothetical alternative, would not only lack the established structure and effectiveness of the ABC but could also be culturally insensitive. Instead, we should focus on inclusive and comprehensive education that acknowledges the historical context while promoting diversity and equality.

TL;DR Idiots gave grifters money, are shocked when grifters don't produce what they promised.

Woke Kindergarten, aimed at elementary-age students, is founded on the relatively new concept of abolitionist education, which advocates for abolition, or “a kind of starting over,” said Zeus Leonardo, UC Berkeley education professor. The idea is that certain things can’t be reformed, tweaked or shifted, because they are inherently problematic or oppressive. It’s not about indoctrinating or imposing politics, “but making politics part of the framework of teaching,” Leonardo said.

That's actually very much indoctrinating and imposing politics, and he's either a bold-faced liar or the most naive tool on the planet for saying otherwise.

Woke Kindergarten was founded by former teacher Akiea “Ki” Gross, who identifies as they/them and describes themselves as “an abolitionist early educator, cultural organizer and creator currently innovating ways to resist, heal, liberate and create with their pedagogy, Woke Kindergarten.”

Gee, what a shocker.

Not if they change the tests. That's what's coming next.

Ah yes the kindergarten classroom. The ultimate bastion of the KKK. We must end such white supremacist ideals like sharing your toys (communism, the KKK favorite ism) and playing nice with your friends (ignoring the genetic memory of the evils of slavery)

ironically "admins being snookered for a quarter mil for a math decolonization program by a guy in a dashiki who's really named Jerry instead of working with the kids" falls smack under structural inequality

The irony in this situation is palpable. A program aimed at decolonizing mathematics, intended to promote equity and challenge traditional power structures, has become a victim of a scam. The perpetrator, an individual who adopted the guise of a respected African name and donned traditional attire, managed to manipulate and deceive those in positions of authority, securing a significant sum of money for a program that, in reality, lacked substance and failed to serve the intended beneficiaries. This incident highlights the persistence of structural inequality, where those with power and resources are more susceptible to manipulation and exploitation. Instead of directing funds towards initiatives that directly benefit marginalized communities, resources were misallocated due to the perpetrator's cunning and the negligence of those responsible for due diligence. The consequences of such actions perpetuate existing disparities and undermine efforts to address systemic inequities. The focus should be on empowering communities, working in collaboration with them to implement meaningful and impactful programs that address their specific needs and challenges, rather than falling prey to superficial gestures and false promises.

Laughing as I picture these childless loser teachers slowly and angrily shouting the word "intersectionality" in a kindergartener's face as they stare blankly back, drool hanging from their lip, pausing briefly before saying "my cat's name is Spiderman"

it's more unfortunate than that: you remember that cute story about the black and white kids who wanted to get the same haircuts so they couldn't tell them apart? well this ideology will literally take them aside and tell them they're not friends, not REALLY, that they'll never have an equal relationship, that they can barely communicate with one another, because they were born different

Sadly ironic that multiculturalism, DEI, wokeness often seem to be the answers to imaginary problems and yet they aren't, LMAO! You made up these limitations (which are far more racist than any imaginary bugaboos the left makes up), and then enact useless policy that never does anything but, shockingly (/s), lower scores. Here's a crazy thought - TRY TEACHING!
