Ohio education officials investigating pro-Nazi homeschooling network

The Ohio Department of Education is reportedly investigating a pro-Nazi homeschooling network run by a couple in the state, according to several media outlets.

The department is “actively reviewing compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements,” an official with the state agency told The Washington Post, after reports emerged last week about the homeschooling network known as “Dissident Homeschool.”

The network, which distributes pro-Nazi curriculum via a Telegram channel, has more than 2,400 subscribers, according to Vice News. The Ohio couple who run the channel, known there as Mr. and Mrs. Saxon, have been identified as Katja and Logan Lawrence of Upper Sandusky.

“The homeschooling network and the Lawrences’ identities were initially reported by an anti-fascist research group known as the Anonymous Comrades Collective.”

All righty, then.

Seems like a fair and objective source.

It’s OH so convenient!

Anything not under the complete control of the world’s elites needs to be brought under it. Homeschooling is on that list.

The Harvard Symposium on the horrible dangers of homeschooling (possibly in 2020?). Home school organizations weren’t allowed to participate. But the symposium invited a scholar who claims parents have no natural rights over their children. The state does, and parents are only permitted limited rights granted by the state.

In a previous post on this saga, it was noted that about six News outfits covered this story in a 24-hour period....all coincidental, huh?

I believe this is an attempt to slime all HSers as neo-Nazis to build public support for more HS regulation. Personally, I think these scum are real, but associating them with the homeschooling movement is like associating the Westboro Baptist Church with Christianity.

This is a "never let a crisis go to waste" moment.

That's how it works in a Free Society.

"Free society." I've heard of that. How does that work, exactly?

Home schooled have to take placement exams to get into college. In many areas they score higher than public school students. Many states provide achievement test for parents to give their kids. This is so the states are really sure the parents are in fact home schooling.

Characterized as “pro-Nazi” by whom? The Hill? Why am I being asked to credibly entertain accusations of possible bigotry emanating from entirely out of the closet bigots? Their words are accursed; the Earth is weary of bearing them.

I have grave doubts about the veracity of nearly every aspect of this story. People making the characterizations are not citing direct quotes that materially support their assertions. This entire story stinks from top to bottom. And I don’t mean the targets of the story stink, I mean the authors and the sources and the accusers in this story stink. But what would we expect from the leftists at The Hill? Why they are even permitted to publish on Free Republic remains an enigma. It is insufficient to say, “Oh, we should stay aware of what our political enemies are thinking.” That is a sad sack of a piss-poor excuse for enduring the raw sewage that daily emanates from The Hill. Let them be banned. Permanently. They are not a credible source of objective news on any level. Ever. They are a propaganda house, and we here comment on actual news. Their product is incompatible with our mission and should not be permitted to appear in these forums, except perhaps to be thoroughly mocked and dismantled in some smoky back room.

Of course, Goebbels learned a lot from Edward Bernays and George Creel, who put together the propaganda efforts to get Americans enthusiastic about entering WWI against the Germans.
