At least the teachers of Occupy Oakland are finally being honest about their political agenda.
They’re openly calling for an all-out abolition of capitalism.
The Occupy Oakland Education Committee – comprised of public school teachers from the Oakland, California school district – has renamed its publication “ClassRoom Struggle” and its platform TEACH, which stands for “Transform Education, Abolish Capitalism and Heal.”
Finally the radical teachers have acknowledged what we’ve been saying all along: they want to end capitalism and replace it with a socialist economy, quite possibly enforced by a totalitarian form of government.
And what, precisely, is their strategy? They tell us that goal number one is to abolish “capitalist schools.”
“What we are calling to abolish is not education but rather capitalism,” the group wrote in a statement. “We see the struggle to abolish capitalist schools as one place where we can begin to chip away at capitalism’s grasp on our society. Capitalist tendencies run deep into the structure and politics of schools.
Operated the proper way, these schools have a great deal of potential for left-wing causes, according to the Oakland group.
“While public schools have served a role in developing white supremacist, capitalist and imperialist ideology and social structure (for example through segregated schools, tracked programs, mandated pledge of allegiance, etc.), they have also been key sites of struggle and served as assets for movements of working class students of color and other youth struggles,” the group wrote.
The last part is the scariest. They clearly want to encourage rebellious behavior among young student and recruit them into their anti-American movement.
The teachers have an absolute right to subscribe to any silly political theory they choose. That’s one of the great things about living in the country they hate. But many teachers in Oakland and throughout the U.S. have been using their classrooms as “assets” for their radical movements. They seek to brainwash youngsters into hating America and mistrusting the economic system that has given our nation a very high standard of living.
This proves what domestic terrorist-turned-professor Bill Ayers recently said: Radical leftist teachers have a great deal of influence in our schools, and they should use it to further the revolutionary cause.
America will continue its slide toward socialism as long as radical activists like Ayers and the Oakland teachers are allowed to use our taxpayer-funded schools as bully pulpits and recruiting zones for their movement.
Male teachers will be assigned to the nearest government farms to harvest the vegetable crops.

He visited the US as part of a group Nixon had invited to see that he'd gotten rid of our chemical and biological warfare operations.
He returned to the USSR convinced Nixon had told the truth and he spoke up before the party people about that and advocated the USSR do the same and sign a treaty with us.
He worked himself out of his job by doing nothing more than telling the truth.
He was part of a single payer system ~ never got a dime more for probably saving the world. When the time came, though, he emigrated to the United States to make the BIG BUCKS.
I know Obama hates Ken even more than he hates any of us. And there's a problem for you.
Ken's a great guy but he has that feeling of power about him that people who get to the top of the game in totalitarian dictatorships have ~ rather like you'd think Joe Stalin would be like on a coffee break.
We need separation of school and state. Vouchers for everyone, usable anywhere.
This ideology in Oakland is the high speed rail the city will ride to becoming another Detroit.
Or China or North Korea or Zimbabwe.
I was thinking of the cases of targeted and planned famine. Ukraine is an example.
Does anyone doubt that the communists in the U.S. would like to see some targeted areas of our nation struck down with planned famine.
And places such as Oakland (and Chicago and NYC and Detroit) will be the first targets.
