Should public schools be investigated (for political bias) ?

[Unkotare]

He DIDN'T NEED TO. ...

Google has lots of the real world if you take the time to observe.
And get your friends to buy you a TV set.

Turn off the TV and go see the real world.

"Doubtful" "Likely"

The leftwing media must love easy dupes like you.

What is there to be "duped" when you see indoctrination with your own eyes & ears ? Go ahead and join the 1% of Americans who don't think leftist indoctrination in schools is prevalent.

He didn't "personally see" anything, just like most of the people bitching here.

None of us "personally see" ICE agents killing protestors so why the bitching? You can literally say this about any serious issue.

 

[protectionist]

Turn off the TV and go see the real world.

Turn ON the TV and see it.
Next you'll be telling us there haven't been any anti-ICE protests becasue we weren't in Minneapolis ourselves, seeing it in person.
Is there a doctor in the house ?

 

[protectionist]

How many classes did you personally observe in that local school?

You're using a dumb approach, to try to persuade us from the truth. Dumb.

 

[protectionist]

The leftwing media wants you to jump around like a trained monkey and you are only too happy to oblige.

HA HA HA - yeah

You can answer the question if you want (can).

Are you allowed to go outside?

If you ask a teacher whether there is political bias in their teachings, OF COURSE s/he will deny it. They may not even be aware of it. If everyone you interact with shares the same bias, that bias becomes invisible to you.

There is no real tool for the general public (who pay for public schools) to see what is going on in the classrooms. If you are a parent, the kids bring stories home but they are usually unreliable, as you learn when you dig deeper.

But what is obvious to every astute observer is that the teachers' unions are dramatically biased to the political Left - witness their disgraceful, counterproductive conduct during COVID - and it is reasonable to assume that a lot of that Leftist bias comes out in the classroom.

YOU haven't.

Appeal to popularity, monkey?

If you ask a teacher whether there is political bias in their teachings...

They will tell you the truth, just like ALL the teachers posting here have.

Of course there is. Go to a school and observe some classes. I have a number of parents coming in today.

Here we go. Decades of actual teaching experience and first-hand accounts from the actual teachers here mean nothing. Google searches and "my own younger son graduated from high school" are REAL proof of categorical conclusions.

You asked for anecdotal evidence. I gave it.

Now, you are wiggling like the first little fishie I caught 65 years ago.

 

[Bitterhook]

I'm fine with how I approach the subject. Don't need your coaching.

Sure you are, and your approach led to you wonder whether or not some schools need investigating, while my approach doesn't because it requires you already know and have actually done something about what you know. Shit, you don't need to worry about any coaching, because you didn't even make the team, and the bus has already left.

 

[Unkotare]

....

Your younger son graduating? That's it? And you dismiss 30+ years of teaching (and the other guy's 40 years)?

What I actually dismiss is your fallacious appeal to authority, especially inasmuch as you have appointed yourself as the ultimate authority, thereof.

Just because you might not do something does not mean nobody else does.

 

[Unkotare]

What I actually dismiss is your fallacious appeal to authority...

Decades of experience is what it is. Ask any of the other teachers here.

How does this jive with Turning Point being promoted in Schools?

When Red Is Yellow, Blue Wins

By focusing only on college students, who are brown-nosing job thieves, Turning Point insults the rest of us. Like the other fake-MAGA groups, they should be out counter-protesting Antifa's anti-ICE mob. Lack of action—out there where the action is—discredits TP.

If the fake Right had been nullifying Snob Mob demonstrations from the Sick Sixties on, it wouldn't appear that the country is in revolt against the traditions that made it great.
