How come democrats are anti-education?

[Wyatt earp]

I am specifically talking about U.S. history.

Reading these threads over the past 16 years in these forums, liberals keep on saying over and over the same ignorant propaganda.

Its like have they ever even bothered to read a history book?

Examples:

1. High taxes and Unions in the 1950~1980

Why do they ignore WWII , the world was in ruins, the only standing country to produce was The U.S.A.

Why do they ignore the lack of regulations? Lack of government agency's like the EPA that was started by Nixion? Why they ignore the lack of Quality control..any one with a few bucks could start a company in a garage and build an empire?

Why do they ignore the fact no one paid those high taxes?

Why do they ignore the fact the world caught up?

Why do they ignore the fact no one wants to work for private Unions?

2. Why do democrats ignore their own history? What is the big deal?


How many democrats know that following the Civil War, 23 blacks -- 13 of them ex-slaves -- were elected to Congress, all as Republicans?

The first black Democrat was not elected to Congress until 1935, from the state of Illinois. The first black congressional Democrat from a Southern state was not elected until 1973.




How many democrats know, in 1854, passed the Kansas-Nebraska Act?

This overturned the Missouri Compromise and allowed for the importation of slaves into the territories. Disgusted with the passage of this Act, free-soilers and anti-slavery members of the Whig and Democratic parties founded the Republican Party -- not just to stop the spread of slavery, but to eventually abolish it.

How many democrats know that blacks founded the Texas Republican Party?

On July 4, 1867, in Houston, Texas, 150 blacks and 20 whites formed the party. No, not the Black Texas Republican Party, they founded the Texas Republican Party. Blacks across Southern states also founded the Republican parties in their states.

How many democrats know Fugitive slave laws?

In 1850, Democrats passed the Fugitive Slave Law. If merely accused of being a slave, even if the person enjoyed freedom all of his or her life (as approximately 11 percent of blacks did just before the Civil War), the person lost the right to representation by an attorney, the right to trial by jury, and the right to habeas corpus.

How many democrats know Emancipation?

Republican President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation during the Civil War. In 1865, the 13th Amendment emancipating the slaves was passed with 100 percent of Republicans (88 of 88 in the House, 30 of 30 in the Senate) voting for it. Only 23 percent of Democrats (16 of 66 in the House, 3 of 8 in the Senate) voted for it.

How many democrats know Civil rights laws?

In 1868, the 14th Amendment was passed giving the newly emancipated blacks full civil rights and federal guarantee of those rights, superseding any state laws. Every single voting Republican (128 of 134 -- with 6 not voting -- in the House, and 30 of 32 -- with 2 not voting -- in the Senate) voted for the 14th Amendment. Not a single Democrat (zero of 36 in the House, zero of 6 in the Senate) voted for it.

How many democrats knowRight to vote?

When Southern states balked at implementing the 14th Amendment, Congress came back and passed the 15th Amendment in 1870, guaranteeing blacks the right to vote. Every single Republican voted for it, with every Democrat voting against it.

Ku Klux Klan? In 1872 congressional investigations, Democrats admitted beginning the Klan as an effort to stop the spread of the Republican Party and to re-establish Democratic control in Southern states. As PBS' "American Experience" notes, "In outright defiance of the Republican-led federal government, Southern Democrats formed organizations that violently intimidated blacks and Republicans who tried to win political power. The most prominent of these, the Ku Klux Klan, was formed in Pulaski, Tenn., in 1865." Blacks, who were all Republican at that time, became the primary targets of violence.



Jim Crow laws? Between 1870 and 1875, the Republican Congress passed many pro-black civil rights laws. But in 1876, Democrats took control of the House, and no further race-based civil rights laws passed until 1957. In 1892, Democrats gained control of the House, the Senate and the White House, and repealed all the Republican-passed civil rights laws. That enabled the Southern Democrats to pass the Jim Crow laws, poll taxes, literacy tests, and so on, in their individual states.

Civil rights in the '60s? Only 64 percent of Democrats in Congress voted for the 1964 Civil Rights Act (153 for, 91 against in the House; and 46 for, 21 against in the Senate). But 80 percent of Republicans (136 for, 35 against in the House; and 27 for, 6 against in the Senate) voted for the 1964 Act.

They don't educate they indoctrinate. A parent is a fool to send their child to a public school

 

[Pete7469]

Educated people who know historical facts, question authority and have a basic intellectual curiosity about what is truth are far harder to control.

Especially when they're armed.

 

[koshergrl]

A population with a good understanding of history is a threat to lefties. Because NOBODY with a decent education can defend progressive policies.

Why are democrats so anti education?

Why?

Dems have had their claws in the education system for a long time now. History books have been changed a lot. Kids today aren't learning the real history. They get a version where many great people in history have been reduced to a footnote and others have been artificially elevated. While women deserve recognition, inventing things and downplaying the roles of men, particularly white men, doesn't give the whole picture. Our history was what is was and changing it didn't help anything. The leftist teachers convince young students that we've always been racist and greedy and we need to change. Socialism is taught as a positive thing while capitalism is taught as the root of all evil. I think that is why we have more violence these days. The new way of teaching history and the constant barrage of liberal talking points is designed to incite anger. The children don't graduate with high hopes for their future, they are often angry and instantly blame the wealthy and/or the racists if they have to struggle the way virtually everyone else did in the past.

They are indoctrinated and taught to love socialism and hate the country as it is. It's why so many colleges now need safe spaces and trigger warnings. There are still independent thinkers and they are treated like a huge threat.

The left indoctrinates because embracing their ideology isn't something that comes natural to people. I think we are born with an innate desire for freedom and liberty. Giving that up is something the people need to be slowly conditioned to accept over the years. True education, which empowers people, wouldn't get the results desired by the left.

This shit always drives me crazy, yes I grew up in the mid 70s~ mid 80s

And was appalled at what the elders did to black people and to this day I can never understand why it took long to the 1960s ...

It also drives me crazy that liberals don't get and comprehend the 1950s~1980s was a fluke in human history regarding U.S. economics

You could have been a moron back then and could build a manufacturing empire starting out in your garage.

I know so many people who did it.

Just like in the 1990s with dot.com

Right place, quick thinking you became a millionaire over night.

When Southern states balked at implementing the 14th Amendment, Congress came back and passed the 15th Amendment in 1870, guaranteeing blacks the right to vote. Every single Republican voted for it, with every Democrat voting against it.

Ku Klux Klan? In 1872 congressional investigations, Democrats admitted beginning the Klan as an effort to stop the spread of the Republican Party and to re-establish Democratic control in Southern states. As PBS' "American Experience" notes, "In outright defiance of the Republican-led federal government, Southern Democrats formed organizations that violently intimidated blacks and Republicans who tried to win political power. The most prominent of these, the Ku Klux Klan, was formed in Pulaski, Tenn., in 1865." Blacks, who were all Republican at that time, became the primary targets of violence.



Jim Crow laws? Between 1870 and 1875, the Republican Congress passed many pro-black civil rights laws. But in 1876, Democrats took control of the House, and no further race-based civil rights laws passed until 1957. In 1892, Democrats gained control of the House, the Senate and the White House, and repealed all the Republican-passed civil rights laws. That enabled the Southern Democrats to pass the Jim Crow laws, poll taxes, literacy tests, and so on, in their individual states.

Civil rights in the '60s? Only 64 percent of Democrats in Congress voted for the 1964 Civil Rights Act (153 for, 91 against in the House; and 46 for, 21 against in the Senate).

Again I say..

Why are democrats so anti education?

Why?

Do you know what year it is?

2016..

So do they teach U.S. history now or not?

What is the big deal anyways, if the entire idea is to move forward?

But some things about history you can't ignore other wise history could repeat it self..


Agree or disagree?

I am thinking right now of trumps taking a softer stance on illegals...

 

[NYcarbineer]

A population with a good understanding of history is a threat to lefties. Because NOBODY with a decent education can defend progressive policies.

This shit always drives me crazy, yes I grew up in the mid 70s~ mid 80s

And was appalled at what the elders did to black people and to this day I can never understand why it took long to the 1960s ...

It also drives me crazy that liberals don't get and comprehend the 1950s~1980s was a fluke in human history regarding U.S. economics

You could have been a moron back then and could build a manufacturing empire starting out in your garage.

I know so many people who did it.

Just like in the 1990s with dot.com

Right place, quick thinking you became a millionaire over night.

So you accept that the US is in decline and there's nothing we can do about it.

I am specifically talking about U.S. history.

Reading these threads over the past 16 years in these forums, liberals keep on saying over and over the same ignorant propaganda.

Its like have they ever even bothered to read a history book?

Examples:

1. High taxes and Unions in the 1950~1980

Why do they ignore WWII , the world was in ruins, the only standing country to produce was The U.S.A.

Why do they ignore the lack of regulations? Lack of government agency's like the EPA that was started by Nixion? Why they ignore the lack of Quality control..any one with a few bucks could start a company in a garage and build an empire?

Why do they ignore the fact no one paid those high taxes?

Why do they ignore the fact the world caught up?

Why do they ignore the fact no one wants to work for private Unions?

2. Why do democrats ignore their own history? What is the big deal?

Again I say..

Why are democrats so anti education?

Why?

Dems have had their claws in the education system for a long time now. History books have been changed a lot. Kids today aren't learning the real history. They get a version where many great people in history have been reduced to a footnote and others have been artificially elevated. While women deserve recognition, inventing things and downplaying the roles of men, particularly white men, doesn't give the whole picture. Our history was what is was and changing it didn't help anything. The leftist teachers convince young students that we've always been racist and greedy and we need to change. Socialism is taught as a positive thing while capitalism is taught as the root of all evil. I think that is why we have more violence these days. The new way of teaching history and the constant barrage of liberal talking points is designed to incite anger. The children don't graduate with high hopes for their future, they are often angry and instantly blame the wealthy and/or the racists if they have to struggle the way virtually everyone else did in the past.

They are indoctrinated and taught to love socialism and hate the country as it is. It's why so many colleges now need safe spaces and trigger warnings. There are still independent thinkers and they are treated like a huge threat.

The left indoctrinates because embracing their ideology isn't something that comes natural to people. I think we are born with an innate desire for freedom and liberty. Giving that up is something the people need to be slowly conditioned to accept over the years. True education, which empowers people, wouldn't get the results desired by the left.

The educational systems in the country are in liberal states.

Why do you say that?

Ever hear of clemson, Georgia, duke, south carolina, Alabama and all the rest?

Where did I say that? I am saying everything is equaling it self out.

You guys say a rising tide lifts all boats.well it has globally..


If you look at say manufacturing/industrial revolution ..it start in Europe >America>Japan>China> now countries like Vietnam is undercutting China..

As PBS' "American Experience" notes, "In outright defiance of the Republican-led federal government, Southern Democrats formed organizations that violently intimidated blacks and Republicans who tried to win political power. The most prominent of these, the Ku Klux Klan, was formed in Pulaski, Tenn., in 1865." Blacks, who were all Republican at that time, became the primary targets of violence.



Jim Crow laws? Between 1870 and 1875, the Republican Congress passed many pro-black civil rights laws. But in 1876, Democrats took control of the House, and no further race-based civil rights laws passed until 1957. In 1892, Democrats gained control of the House, the Senate and the White House, and repealed all the Republican-passed civil rights laws. That enabled the Southern Democrats to pass the Jim Crow laws, poll taxes, literacy tests, and so on, in their individual states.

Civil rights in the '60s? Only 64 percent of Democrats in Congress voted for the 1964 Civil Rights Act (153 for, 91 against in the House; and 46 for, 21 against in the Senate). But 80 percent of Republicans (136 for, 35 against in the House; and 27 for, 6 against in the Senate) voted for the 1964 Act.


Again I say..

Why are democrats so anti education?

Why?

Do you know what year it is?

2016..

So do they teach U.S. history now or not?

What is the big deal anyways, if the entire idea is to move forward?

But some things about history you can't ignore other wise history could repeat it self..


Agree or disagree?

I am thinking right now of trumps taking a softer stance on illegals...

HIstory tells us that the racist component of modern American conservatism has its roots in the history of conservatism in this country.

Its not what I see today..

We know you don't travel much, but I said it a million times...I was born in Chicago and raised in the burbs..

I moved down here 2004..

I wittnesed more racism and segregation in illinois then I ever did in south carolina in the past 12 years..

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

I am specifically talking about U.S. history.

Reading these threads over the past 16 years in these forums, liberals keep on saying over and over the same ignorant propaganda.

Its like have they ever even bothered to read a history book?

Examples:

1. High taxes and Unions in the 1950~1980

Why do they ignore WWII , the world was in ruins, the only standing country to produce was The U.S.A.

Why do they ignore the lack of regulations? Lack of government agency's like the EPA that was started by Nixion? Why they ignore the lack of Quality control..any one with a few bucks could start a company in a garage and build an empire?

Why do they ignore the fact no one paid those high taxes?

Why do they ignore the fact the world caught up?

Why do they ignore the fact no one wants to work for private Unions?

2. Why do democrats ignore their own history? What is the big deal?
