Not going to lie, I don't know why so many people are getting torn up about schools closing, considering what they're teaching in public schools nowadays.
To be fair, I don't have kids... but if I did, homeschool, private school, co-schooling groups with multiple families, anything other than public school.
Keeping the schools closed and paying teachers and school administrators to do literally nothing would be less socially damaging than re-opening them. So of course that option will never be on the table.
And we fucking squandered it. We begged for the communist indoctrination centers to be reopened.
I think a lot of people got the message and started homeschooling after this. You're overall correct though.
I think the conservative movement desperately needs some real leadership and consistency in messaging. I don't think that re-opening schools was necessarily the popular position. If it wasn't, we need messaging that's more responsive to the base. If it was, then we need better thought leaders.
People aren't thinking clearly because things have been changing so fast they're hardly able to. And their enemies are the ones pushing these policies so there's a bit of a team rivalry mentality going on.
And probably more than a bit of just ingrained thinking like "serious countries/societies have schools, even if those schools are so unfit for purpose no one can use them; and even if ultimate responsibility for schooling rests with the parent", so when you suggest that if the schools are so bad and bear no responsibility for their poor performance maybe we should close all the schools it's you that looks like the crazy person.
In case you were not aware, skin color is (at least in my area) covered on your orientation for KG.
Like, not even in kindergarten yet. Just getting ready for the school year. And this kid comes back from his visit with a four page coloring booklet on skin color.

Problem is that school is just daycare so that mommy can pretend to be a man and work since her big ego won’t allow her to be a housewife.
That's a funny way to spell because her husband doesn't want a parasite that contributes zero.
Raising children, taking care of the house, and feeding everyone is a lot of work.

Regime conservatives, to borrow a phrase.
Good phrase. I think you're right on point about this mindset.
