Yep.
We’ve known this.
Rs have been mostly silent about this, for decades.
Not all...but, most. Especially in the last decade.
Let’s face it, being white is great! Get a little Sun to tan the arms and legs...not too much, of course.
I try to understand the darker bunch and, yes, it is easy to see what their biggest problem is....they ain’t white.
It started with California.
My time in the service showed me Californians did not have a damn clue about the USA.
I would quiz my supers from Cali about anything USA and they were clueless. This was an AFSOC that had a very high standard.
Early 1980’s.
No, it started in local public schools coast to coast, going back decades.
“This next statement is moot as the stee as Yemeni prior is false. Quit wasting my time.”
Yeah, okay...got it. Thanks for clearing that up.
Not in mine.

“they have also been taught not to bully a person on the basis of their race, class, gender, or any other trait.“
“They have not been taught this. They are being taught that white people are oppressors and that white males in particular are tge least bc worthy of respect. There is much more to argue here
“ On the surface, that seems like a good thing…”
Bla bla bla.
I read the whole thing. This next statement is moot as the statement prior is false. Quit wasting my time.
I see, you had all conservative public schools. But I can assure you, 95% percent of all the other public schools are not that way. And it’s certainly no secret.
I did. They were very strict. We had a milk at 9am for 5c.
I would bring it on a tray. We had old school lunch all made in the cafeteria. We had an old school playground with that wild wheel and monkey bars. Sometimes you get hurt, Sometimes you do not. It was all about the ABC’s. The history was in the room.
I even got to help the janitor one morning when temps were below 0. He needed help with the school furnace.
I shoveled coal into that thing for hours. (all the rooms had radiators from that) 6th grade.
I enjoyed learning.
“I have stacks of family letters from old.”
A few letters we’ve found at the family farm is a back-and-forth between two brothers. I haven’t read them recently, but IIRC the unmarried brother offered to go to war — the Civil War, I think — in place of his brother who was married with a family. I don’t remember how it turned out.

Well that's great going down memory lane when you had milk and cookies and everyone in the public schools you attended were conservative and loved America.
But that's not what we're talking about, is it? That's certainly not happening today, is it eyedigress?
I’ve gotten a lot of laughs at the expense of my 20-something co-worker who could not read a tape measure and did not understand fractions.
Of course he was always the first one to whip out his phone and drawl “Hey, Google ...” into it if he had a question.
My friend called today after a two-week hiking trip with a group. She was spouting off that some of the group had no idea what an oligarchy is. She’s a Boomer; the ignorant ones are the next-younger generation (whatever that is - millennials?).
California was quite proud of themselves for being the new Europe.
Not so much anymore.
