Indeed, the very act of learning history in a free and multiethnic society is inescapably fraught. Any accurate teaching of any country’s history could make some of its citizens feel uncomfortable (or even guilty) about the past. To deny this necessary consequence of education is, to quote W.E.B. Du Bois, to transform “history into propaganda.”
The problem is intentional cherry picking of history to intentionally alter accuracy. Unless I can walk into a classroom and tell every student about the atrocities committed by each and every group to exact detail. you just defeated your own point retard.
If learning history in a multi-ethnic society is so hard, maybe we shouldn't have a multi-ethnic society. And if something that ought to be as straightforward as teaching history becomes difficult, how much more difficult does it make legitimately difficult social tasks?
Yup. Trump enjoys 90%+ approval rating in the republican party, but conservative media and leadership are almost exclusively drawn from the other ten percent.
The truth about government and media in America is that a majority of the country is literally unrepresented.
Correct but Income taxes and Public education are also unamerican so if one doesn't want to have CRT banned, how about we get rid of all public funding to public education also, which would be American.
If educators taught CRT as one historical lens among many, and gave children the tools they need to recognize the holes and lies present in leftist ideologies, then people wouldn't object to teaching about this shit.
But that's not what's happening. Marxist activists are posing as teachers so that they can drill CRT into impressionable young minds as the only valid way to see the world. That's not "education". That's indoctrination. And everyone on both sides knows that's what's happening, but only the anti-CRT side is being honest about it.
David French is like, controlled opposition doesn't even cover it. More like disinformation officer that rags like the Jew York Times pretend is a conservative.
The “conservative” talking point is that not allowing schools to talk about CRT is shutting down freedom of speech. Teaching is not a public soap box! That is not a place for teachers to repeat what they posted in Twattet!
"not hating America is un-American!"
~Fake Americans.
For real. I don't care how many generations their family has been here, they're foreigners and they need to leave.
The future holds an absolutely massive violation of the UN Declaration on Statelessness.

OK I guess I'm a reactionary then.
It is weak shit like this why I refuse to be lumped in with the label of Republicans and Conservatives.
I am simply a right wing populist.
There's a reason the term RINO exists.
"Conservative" my ass.
Ever notice that their "right" leaning voices are always anti-Trump types "right"?
Literally half the country, some 74 million, are consistently denied a voice in all these platforms.
Also, the article had garbage "reasoning" but I don't feel like tearing it apart.

Hey now, you're getting reeeeeeal close to some hateful facts there!

It's always the same motte and bailey.

A libertarian should be against public education at all.
I expected this level of garbage from surrender monkey David French and Yale snake Jason Stanley.
Very disappointed to see Kmele Foster and Thomas Chatterton Williams being useful idiots for the left.
Holy fuck I didn't know TCW worked for that den of neocon snakes.
Some of the worst neocon filth like Bill Kristol and Jonah Goldberg work for AEI.
Now I am only disappointed in Kmele.
Beltway Libertarians do more damage to human liberty than 1000 Aleppo's.
teach mein kampf in schools and watch them blow a fuse.
All I see is four traitors

Given some of the shit people identify as, it's only fair that radical progressives get to self identify as moderates, libertarians and conservatives.
no.
4 fools overestimate their competence.
