On a surface level, it makes sense that they want public schools to be reopened, but really, it just shows how hypocritical some of these conservatives are, like Ben Shapiro ("shocking," I know). For years conservatives have been lamenting the public schools as a source of leftist indoctrination (which I agree with), so shouldn't conservatives be more vocal about the value of home schooling? Or would having students be home-schooled (which generally a parent wants to be there for) shine a greater light on a problem conservative politicians and pundits want to ignore?
Home-schooling should definitely be more utilized compared to public schools, so I don't understand why conservatives in general aren't looking a gift horse in the mouth?
Because the general "conservative" leadership are uniparty grifters and spend most of their speeches slowly working their audience towards non-conservative viewpoints.
The average American conservative is an idiot who just believes whatever the mainstream "conservative" sources tell them.
It's gotten a bit better but not much. The Q psyop really fucked longterm growth.
