A Minnesota science teacher in the Saint Paul Public Schools district lambasted cell biology lessons, particularly on mitochondrion, for containing "capitalist" propaganda, Fox News Digital found.
Mandi Jung, a teacher at Highland Park Middle School, said, "Lately, there's been a lot of conversation about teachers indoctrinating students to their beliefs. And I always find this funny because our children are seeped in capitalist indoctrination from like the second they're born, basically."
Jung proceeded to provide the "perfect example" of how "capitalist indoctrination" is expressed in her seventh grade science classes.
"Seventh grade science… [is] the year that you learn that the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell and all this cell biology. So at the end of the unit, I have [students] take a test. And one of the questions is ‘A person says the nucleus is the most important organelle in the cell. Do you agree or disagree, and why?"
"And almost every child says, ‘Yes, I agree. Because without a boss, the cell would be in total chaos.’"
Jung added the students' responses "cracks me up," and went on to claim microscopic bacteria were the "original anarchists."
"Bacteria don't have a nucleus, and they are arguably one of the most successful classes of organisms on the planet. Bacteria out here being the original anarchists, right? No nucleus, no master. Seize the means of metabolism. I don't know. It's funny to me," she said.

PING!
This is idiotic because the concept of leadership is not specific to capitalism. Last time I checked all communist societies had clearly identified leaders as well. In fact they are consistently more centralized and totalitarian in their control than any capitalist society. Perhaps we should lambast cell biology classes for teaching totalitarianism?
Defund public education.
We have to burn the village to save it.
Speaking of cells, this waste vacuole needs to be put in one.
“Seize the means of metabolism.” So clever. That’s the thing about libs: they know for a fact that they’re smarter than everyone else, and the ability to spit out a bon mot like that is supposed to prove it
This must be what Fauci is complaining about. /s
Please tell me this is from the Bee. Such an idiot.
She looks perfectly mentally stable </sarc>
Even Mizzz Jung has more capability for logic than a bacterium. Hers comes from a brain about the size of a bird’s.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Seems like lately, every day some indoctrinated kook with an axe to grind gives us another reason to homeschool.
Her GF Mani Quinn in the fashion industry agrees.
From Two and a Half Men.
Openly homosexual, too. This is what MN allows to teach children.
Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children’s factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc. etc.It was the left that wanted public schools in the first place, versus private schools and (heaven forfend) religious schools.

“Problem Glasses” horrible hair. Naturally.
She needs a better girlfriend, somebody like Harley Quinn.
“It isn't so much that liberals are ignorant. It's just that they know so many things that aren't so.”
Did the teacher ask how the cells identify and what their preferred pronouns are?
maybe they self identify as non binary communists?
