lol, American teachers don’t get paid enough to get edgy haircuts and active shooter drills take up too much of the curriculum to leave room for electives. Silly gooses. Liberalism is for the bourgeoisie.

"Can't afford no liberals in times like these."

Saying this is no different than this stupid meme. My kid might do 1 or 2 per year.

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

That's still too many lmao. Your country is fucked.

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

No argument here. This place is a fucking joke.

[-] Squizzy@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

My kids do none because kids don't die in our schools, you're normalizing insane shit.

I’ll give you one guess what Elon had to say about it.

[-] fsxylo@sh.itjust.works 26 points 1 year ago

He thinks school turned his daughter trans so yes he actually thinks this.

[-] mateomaui@reddthat.com 19 points 1 year ago

He also thinks the school made her hate him, and that his being an unrelenting douche has nothing to do with it.

These are grown men making cartoons with .png characters. We're back at rage comics again

What’s funny to me is that the teachers at our elementary school look remarkably like the top drawing. So many cute 20-something women, and doing a great job.

Who, conservatives? Yes I agree. As someone who is currently in High School in the US, the teachers are absolutely nothing like this nor have they ever been. And I live in a really left leaning area for my state!

[-] iforgotmyinstance@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Conservatives and fabricating reasons to hate people, name a better duo.

[-] mojo@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

Why are they such snowflake little bitches

I haven't been to a school recently so I'm curious how much it's actually changed. In any case kids shouldn't be taught the teachers' opinions (however valid they might be), they should be taught the tools to be able to make up their own.

[-] VonCesaw@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

to the standard conservative in the US, that IS the political opinion

they literally have repeating points (to the point of oversatiation) that children 'should not be made to think, but only to calculate when demanded to', because 'accurately retaining information only to regurgitate it' is more important than 'actually grasp the concept of what is being taught'

Slightly disagree, because teachers have always given their opinions, and sometimes that's needed.

Should the science teacher give their opinions on science? No. Maybe a side thing about a hypothesis they have, but it should be made clear that it's not fact.

History. Same. History happened. Teach what happened. The good and the bad. Be as factual as possible.

But opinions in schools have always been a thing. And if anything, I find it funny how now that the opinion is that queer people exist and should be treated with respect, now it's an issue. Meanwhile the people pushing against it tend to want things like prayer back in school. Saying the pledge of alegiance. Learning how great our country and it's founding fathers is. Abstinence only education. All opinions. Most of these are things I had in school. And I'm only 34.

We also had people come and talk to us about how bullying is wrong. An opinion. We had a martial artist come and talk to us essentially about trying our best and pushing ourselves both as people, but also trying to be our best in the things we do. Including school. An opinion. When kids would get in fights, they would get scolded for it. With opinions. You write a paper for English class. Did you use proper English? A lot of that is fact. Was it well done and got your point across? Opinion. How should you show your work in math? I had to learn how to do math differently than how I did it in my head just to get it on paper showing how I got the answer, even if it was right either way. But I did it the wrong way, which is an opinion. Art teacher giving critique? Opinion. The beat tactics to use to train the football team? Opinion. The best person to play the lead in the musical? Opinion. Which books should be read in English class? Opinion. Whether or not a kids clothes is appropriate for school? Opinion.

But then the opinion is "It's OK that Johny has two daddies" and it's a problem. It was never an issue to talk about mom's and dad's. Just if it's two moms or two dads. Now we are indoctrination kids.

I would also argue that kids should hear different opinions in theory lives. They should be able to learn about the world and different people. To keep them in an isolated world, in my opinion, will only stunt their growth and keep them from developing ways to form their own opinions on literally anything and stunt their mental growth. Sure, they might be able to do some chemistry, but they can't think of anything outside of that. Even you have an opinion on opinions in school, and you have developed the ability to have opinions because you weren't locked inside with just your parents 24/7 and only knowing the world as you were taught it. And many of your opinions you probably got from the news and school. Both of which I imagine you would say should not have one.

That's a cop out. Anyone who claims they're just giving objective facts is either concealing or unaware of their bias.

There's a reason your text books tell you George Washington was a farmer with wooden teeth who fought for liberaty, and not that he wore teeth ripped out of the heads of dead slaves, was the richest man in North America, rebelled for fear the brits would ban slavery, and immediately used his political power to enrich himself (which sparked the whiskey rebellion, that he violently put down).

my teacher last year supported capitalism

my teacher this year has not said a word about communism

this meme doesn't make a whole lot of sense

[-] ThePJN@sopuli.xyz 0 points 1 year ago

To be honest school would’ve been much more interesting in this weird, fake anti-corporate, pro-gender fluid universe they’ve created.

Math after recess? Lame!
