    A healthy, broadly educated population, which feels safe and secure, is incompatible with, and toxic to, conservative and authoritarian ideologies.

    They need you to be sick, stupid, and scared.

    I’d take that job and sabotage the shit out of their efforts. Anyone in the position actually get on that team should do the same.

      Because Republicans hate education. Most of the maga crowd will cheer this as a way to get back at the “wokes”, or “intellectual elites”.

        There’s a reason that authoritarian revolutions typically have a “kill all the eggheads” phase. That type of arrogance isn’t compatible with someone saying, “Hey guys, I’ve studied this my whole life and what you’re saying is incorrect.”. Fragile egos can’t deal with the idea that they might be wrong about something, so they just hulk smash anything that might cause cognitive dissonance and move on.

          I can’t think of anything dumber than labeling intelligence as evil….

          Voting a convicted felon sex offender pedophile serial liar insurrectionist gassy orange fatman with a weird yellow comb-over and a bad case of fronto-temporal dementia as president?

      Soon it will be illegal to teach the masses to read, write, add, subtract, multiply and divide.

      My dad is maga. The reason he would say is the teachers union protects bad teachers and just shuffles them around.

      Don’t agree with it but that’s the talking point.

      Teacher’s Unions aren’t perfect and there have been some valid complaints about them, but that’s basically every union. Honestly, my biggest complaint is that teachers have unions and they’re still not paid enough.

      But at any rate, this is typical conservative rhetoric. “We’ve found (or invented) one thing we can complain about, so rather than having a rational, calm discussion about the state of things and how we can improve that thing, we want to cause the most drama, scare everybody the most, and tear everything down, while promising to replace it with something better, a promise that we’ll never, ever, in a million years, deliver on.”

        they arnt, even in blue areas while thier wages are much higher, the hcol kinda negates it, unless you somehow can make it to 10+years as a teacher you will get close to 100k, usually teachers often supported by thier SOs most of the time.

        it should be 100k from the start. they are dealing with admins with red tape bratty children, unruly parents, children that arnt willing to learn,etc.

    My high school was union free and was the best high school because of it. Well, that and how Solvay, NY teachers have sex with students, like Ashley Ramirez, who tore my heart out for a better grade. True story.
