OUR SOCIALIST EDUCATION SYSTEM

Forgive me if I screw up something in this rant because this is the most personal rant that I’ve ever done. I have an almost three year old grandson and I am concerned for his education because I don’t know where he can actually get a solid education. Certainly not the socialist public schools and now I fear even in catholic schools because the pope is a socialist idiot. He really has no idea what he’s talking about. Sorry to all you Catholics but I’m dealing with reality. I went to catholic school as did my children for at least part of their education. Now I fear that the catholic schools are just an extension of the the state schools.

The real concern is that government schools are becoming more and more woke and getting further away from education into straight up socialist indoctrination. Consider in one state, and I don’t recall now if it is Washington or Oregon, children in grade school including kindergarten start each day reciting not the pledge of allegiance but some bullshit about acknowledging that they stand on stolen land and have privileges they don’t deserve. This should be criminal!

Now in Oregon they are introducing ethnomathematics. What is that you ask? Essentially it is the belief that black kids are inferior to white kids and therefore they have to change mathematics from a hard science to a social science. Getting the right answer is racist and so is showing your work. It’s all white supremacy! And the teachers are all racist for not recognizing that. I am sorry people but 2+2=4 is a fact pure and simple. It is not subject to debate and it is not racist. As I heard someone say recently, black African nations would never do this bullshit. They know hard science is hard science.

As Tucker and his guest pointed out the other night, this is the soft bigotry of low expectations —meaning you’re the racist because you don’t think black kids are smart enough to do the work.

People, we need to bring back real education, not the bs 1619 project but the 1776 project. But I don’t see that happening and as I’ll discuss below, I have serious questions about what would happen if my grandson actually got a real education.

Now I want to point out something that Powerline put up yesterday about Yale law school. Apparently the Yale law review is being attacked for being a meritocracy. First that’s what a law review is. You strive to do well so that you can get on law review which is an honor that follows you throughout your career. When I was in law school at UF there were two ways to get on law review. The first and most important was grades. I can’t remember now if it was after the first or second semester and I can’t recall if it was the top ten or the top ten percent, given that the class was 125 it’s pretty much the same thing, were invited to join the law review. These were the folks who became editors and I was one. Subsequently, anyone could write their way onto the law review and several did and many others could have. If you wanted to write your way on, a law review member was assigned to review and edit your work to help you. I mentored a friend and he got on because as some of you know, I’m a pretty good editor.

Now back to Yale. It turns out that blacks and Hispanics were already over represented on the law review compared to their numbers in the law school population. So I have no idea what the supposed problem was. However, the one thing I learned is apparently if you get admitted to Yale law you can’t flunk. The only two grades are honors or pass. Obviously the students are so bright they cannot fail. This explains the Cuomos and the Bushes.

Now to wrap this up, I want to bring up something I did a while ago. If my grandson was homeschooled and taught real science and math and history would he be able to pass college admission exams, although they appear to being gradually eliminated as racist, because he would know real things and the exams would expect woke bullshit instead of reality?

PS Also the Clintons!
