Then allow me to suggest you post it this way:

Progressives should be banned from the teaching profession.

“Does the average person have any idea what is now considered “normal” in the field of K-12 education?”

No. The average person has been conditioned to not see the obvious differences between education now and education 50 years ago.

Well, you can tear a plane in the falling rain

Ah, the lyrics are kind of nonsensical, but one of my favorite songs. And I’m actually old enough to remember when it came out.
Not to be picky, but it’s actually terraplane I think, not tear a plane.It was a car brand.

They say they hate us.

All we have to do is believe them!

I have met so many blacks who excel in math. No one should be allowed to racialist math.

Math is as non-racist as you can get. There is a RIGHT answer and there are WRONG answers. Math doesn’t care WHO gave the answer; it’s either RIGHT or it’s WRONG.

...”the plans for a safe return to school must take a fuller view of the safety needed to dismantle anti-Blackness and white supremacy in our educational systems.”

Show me any anti-blackness or white supremacy and I promise to dismantle it. I’m waiting...

3 petty thefts + 2 joints = 6 months in juvie

2 knock out punches + 6 robberies = 18 months in county jail

10 corner deals + a stable of 5 = 2 years in prison

2 murders - 1 snitch = life

White supremacy means that the last white person has not been executed—yet.

Do I need to quote Voltaire again?

“It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong.” - Voltaire

I was recently in the hospital and the dieticians came to visit me. They were telling me that my AC1 was high, as well as my blood sugar. I knew that blood sugar goes up when you’re fighting an infection — they didn’t seem to know that.

They tried to tell me that some number represented a 3 month average of my AC1 or sumthin like that. They had ONE data point, the last one. I tried to explain the MEANING of the word “average”. They did not understand.

I asked them to take the average of 3, 3, 3, 4, 2, 3, 5, 1, 3, 3, 0 and 6. Plenty of hints there. They could NOT see the average.

I pointed out to them that if they took the LAST data point, 6, and told a patient that it represented the AVERAGE, they would be off by 100%.

Even though it was their JOB, they still couldn’t see it.

I ran the same quick test past one of the nurses. She saw right off the bat that the average was 3 and that the last data point was off by 100%.

You’re confusing mathematics with science and medicine. /sarc
