CRT is like 1 of 100 social theories about injustice race and class. I will never understand how it became such an issue for either party.

Imagine openly wanting overtly racist policy in the year 2022. wtf is wrong with some people?
ballinthegroin
"I don't want my kids learning CRT" Fucking grow a pair already and just say you're racist and don't want your kids to learn.

Wow, you think they're subtle enough to be able to call it a rebranding?

NBCBLK? Coincidence or intentional? Just curious.

Mad idea: let people read em and make their own minds up
TalkingSnake
Rebranded? They don’t even go that far.
CoarseAndSalty
Oh there's no qualification of what's being burnt. Anything with a complaint is being pulled. This is simply an attack on learning.

Nazis loved burning books. Can’t have youth contaminated by knowledge. Florida’s title as dumbest in America is being challenged by Texans.

Instead of calling it book bans, call it, racist parents want to show their racism.

Critical of racists- every Right-wing accusation is a confession.

Okay, so, if parents want to ban a book, they should have to write a book report on it first and include explanations of why they feel it >
SteveMND
< be removed. The teachers would then grade it, and then, and only then, if they are confident that the parent has actually read the book >
SteveMND
< and actually understand the subject matter, would it be sent up the line to see if it should or shouldn't be removed from the curriculum.

Well as the bot you're replying to just demonstrated, the 50 cent army have added it to their script.

It's worked wonders on "moderate" Republicans. IME you can even show them this guy explaining how specifically he has tricked them and >

Do private schools not already exist in America?

They do, but not funded with public dollars which is what the school privatization peeps are pushing for to profit from them

I have no idea how the "schools run by the government are teaching anti-government liberal propaganda" works on the conservative brain.
Taxicat
In their view, any government that isn’t focused solely on their own interests is not a valid government. So if the schools are teaching >
