In School Board Elections, a Time for Warriors

In the various American cities and towns nearing school board elections, it is easy to discern the urgency of the battles at hand. As parents and other citizens rally against the various ideological toxins that seek to hijack education, the forces who have mixed that dangerous brew are on high alert.

You could see it when the Attorney General of the United States maligned caring parents as domestic terrorists. Now you can see it as the left and its operatives in the education establishment gear up to make sure school boards are not infiltrated by successful candidacies looking to derail their progress.

That progress, by their measure, has seen the successful injection of poisonous race-baiting and radical sexual content.

On race, the insistence that Critical Race Theory is not taught in schools has become comical. While there may not be ubiquitous manuals titled, “How to Spread CRT in the Elementary Grades,” its tentacles are everywhere, from classroom programs directing white kids to lament their “privilege” to materials informing kids of color that their country will cripple them from the starting blocks with cruel systemic racism.

On sexual matters, hardly a day goes by that someone does not find examples of graphic content, often in books, no minor should read. And even more urgently, the current twisted fetish seeking broad acceptance of gender dysphoria is seeping into curricula featuring young children told that they may choose their gender from a list of ever-growing shades of concocted statuses.

The urgency was over five decades ago.

It’s way past that now.

Time to admit the truth.

There are NO a good public school systems. None.

Time to completely overhaul education and take all these illegal federalized “initiatives away.

Time to return to local control of education.

First step is for parents to realize they must be willing to STOP making excuses for their lack of attention on these matters and that they must be willing to sacrifice a lot (work schedules? ) to make real and lasting changes for their child’s well being. Saying “I don’t think I could afford private school” or “I could NEVER homeschool” is a complete cop out.

Once the majority of parents have removed their children from these indoctrination centers and the finding has been removed, then real changes can be made like real accountability for tax moneys being used, accountability for “text book providers.” (That in itself is a leftist on-going fraud gimmick ).

Something that gets tossed aside with public education….individual school size. In my area, they always want to build bigger buildings and combine smaller schools into them. That is actually BACKWARDS when the opposite should be happening.

Elementary schools should not exceed twenty kids in each classroom, and kindergarten should be optional and half a day only. This means the average elementary school would ideally be about 200 kids. The focus should be on schools being VERY local.

The money spent on these long bus routes, maintaining monstrous buildings, the personnel for such large schools, etc could easily pay for many of these much needed changes.

People absolutely need to rethink what real education looks like and that it isn’t a babysitting service or a juvenile detention center.

If a complete overhaul does not happen, and we get back to real education where classics are taught and students actually have to want to be in the school (in other words, they can be expelled and not just barely suspended), we will continue to expect the system to indoctrinate our children into the public education religion that teaches children that sexual perversion is normal and that white pellet are all bad and especially white men etc.

I guess conservatives have totally accepted the Left's redefinition of words, the notable one at the moment being "gender" to replace the word "sex." I was appalled when conservatives eagerly accepted the change of the traditional colors traditionally used to identify parts of the political spectrum and accepted the new Left imposition of Communist "red" while Leftists wrapped themselves in Conservative "blue." If we not only cannot control the official language but simply accept the left's manipulations then we lose the ability to argue, even to reason. Do you wear your Conserative red suit to the business meeting today or your radical blue one?

Gender is a grammatical phenomenon. Words of gender are masculine, feminine, and neuter and refer to the classification of nouns in a language that is constructed with gender.
Sex is a biological term that refers to morphology andgenetic makeup. One is either male or female except in the .5 in a million whose genes get scrambled. Most of those are termed "hermaphrodites" and it is not a favored condition as such usually have other genetic problems that acompany.
