The schools/media fed them lies from 1st grade on so what would one expect.

Perhaps all black students should spend time in Africa.


When Muhammad Ali fought George Foreman in Zaire, a reporter asked Ali what he thought of Africa, and Ali replied, “Thank God my granddaddy got on that boat!”

We just might need an enclave in South America where American expats can be safe. There’s plenty of space down there if the region goes more capitalist.

Think of going out for a pass. South Africans can feel the footsteps. Americans are getting alligator arms.

That’s why they want working families to pay for their POS college attendance certificates that aren’t worth the paper they are printed on. They should not be allowed to go to college until they have worked at a real physical job for at least three years. A job that you don’t sit at a desk all day poking your cellphone. The Scum Baby Generation Communist sissies.

The public school teacher’s union was run by a commie for decades . That was a stupid choice that gave us this stupid prize.

We can do better.

“Send them all to Cuba for a year”

Can’t really compare a embargoed communist nation to democratic socialism.

A fair comparison would be Denmark,Norway or Sweden all are the democratic socialism that GenZ sees and wants. A full year of parental leave, state funded university, state funded healthcare, a full month of paid holiday regardless of job tenure. 35 hour work weeks. Course you also get 50+% income tax rates at anything above poverty level income, 20% VAT taxes too.

You can vote your way in, but you have to shoot your way out.

They think they’ll get Norway, but they’ll end up with Cuba.

Take their college credits and move to some other country that has socialism then. This country was formed on capitalism and has a Constitution that reflects that.

Ridiculous to try to take over a country that isn’t to your liking. Hop on out of here.

I wonder why the “intellectual” jackasses think 20 million Socialist freeloaders wanting “a new life” invaded the United States when the Joe the Pedophile and his DemonRATS opened the wall.

Should start with Grades and advancement.
Every class has a community grade on tests. Everyone either passes or everyone fails. Same grade no matter how hard you study. Tests have to be real, with expected learned goals.

Let’s see how many socialists graduate.

When the left murdered Charlie, they knew for them it would be win/win, for a few days negative press, heck they didnt even get that much negative press, and they are going to get the youth vote back by promising them socialism

True, a friend did his thesis for business school. It was about government spending per age group, and elderly got so much more than kids. He was amazed.

That being said what the kids think capitalism is isn’t what it really is.

It used to be about producing a superior product for a better price.

Now it’s morphed into predatory capitalism or neoliberalism.

For example the American hospital is the Vatican of predatory capitalism, where even a short stay can extract from a person everything he’s worked his whole life for.
