Seattle student fails quiz for answering only males has penis and only females can get pregnant.
The article goes on to speak about how saying you are straight is offensive.
Little wonder we are falling behind in education as the left uses public schools as indoctrination centers.

Yes, we should just study the Bible. You are the ones saying it’s offensive if you aren’t straight.Glennfs wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2023 8:16 am https://mynorthwest.com/3942486/

Reasons for not voting Republican: Women’s rights to live, the right to be able to get contraception, which Republicans are against.
Re: Yet another reason to not vote for democrats
See this is the difference between being objective and being a low information partisan hack. Low information because regardless of the information you will come uo with the same conclusion.
I have no problem admitting or saying that republicans have gone to far right on an issue.
While you being low information will always defend the issue no matter how ridiculous. You would never say that the democratic party which is your religion took something to far to the left.

You keep making these bullshit threads, Glenn. I can tell you right now, your issue won’t be winning any votes for you when the Republican Supreme Court tells a woman she can’t have an abortion when her health is in danger. This is today’s GOP. Just noticed that the US Supreme Court is looking to ban abortion further in a new case.Glennfs wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2023 9:19 am See this is the difference between being objective and being a low information partisan hack.

But you keep bring up these crap things because you think they matter. They don’t.

Mine is they should be teaching tolerance of those different than you. But, not indoctrination of their personal beliefs. What I read reminds me of how in third grade we had to take turns leading the class in prayer. Along with having to read a passage from the Bible.
Which was illegal at the time but the teacher still made us do it.
Sidebar as I look back that lady was a complete supremacist who discriminating against those if us with Appalachian backgrounds. May she rest in hell

Otherwise, it’s just you going for stuff you see on right-wing sites that don’t matter in the big picture of what’s at stake next year. You don’t care how crazy the GOP is, YOU. WILL. VOTE. FOR. THEM.
That’s what you’re telling us in these stupid threads you keep starting.

Once again you don't have the guts to answer a simple question.
Maybe you missed it.
What is your personal opinion of what they are doing in Washington State.

Behold the troll. It is an odd creature which feeds off the angst of others, like in that old Star Trek episode where Jack the Ripper is reincarnated aboard the Enterprise. Trolls used to hide under bridges and demand excessive tolls for crossing. That was a more innocent age. Now, they live among us.
Feeding them makes them more active, which then has the same effect on useful communication as does the hostile measure that the military still calls jamming.

This thread is not trolling in a classic sense. If anything it shows why parents need to run the school district and that gou has no ballsZoWie wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2023 10:51 am Behold the troll.

Re: Yet another reason to not vote for democrats
Finally, you admit to trolling. You said "This thread is not trolling in a classic sense." So what type of trolling is it?
When you vote left, you vote right.
Re: Yet another reason to not vote for democrats
Not an admission of anything. This thread is no more a trolling thread than any thread on here.
It is a thread where I point out where the left wants to take our educational system.
Now if it were a story about what a great job liberal school teachers were doing I would have passed it by.
So how soon before you comment on threads here by liberals which are trolling threads.

Re: Yet another reason to not vote for democrats
What if the left does not want to take our educational system? Right now the "left" is so disorganized that it it wouldn't be able to agree on whether to take Advil or Tylenol for the headaches that so many people in it get from the incessant infighting.
OK, I do concede that a lot of the stuff on here is more like failure of perception than trolling.

Shame we don't teach kids the 3Rs and let them decide on their political path once they are grown

Re: Yet another reason to not vote for democrats
The only part I agree on is that elementary schools should spend more time on the 3Rs, and secondary school is when you encourage independent thought, even though it causes some parents to go into hissy fits.

Re: Yet another reason to not vote for democrats
As long as public education is in the hands of the government and parents are pretty much out of the loop, you will get what we have now or worse. We spend way more time on social engineering that on reading, writing, math, science, and history.
Re: Yet another reason to not vote for democrats
Parents? So there's no place for education professionals?
I mean, if parents ran education then our children would be learning flat earth. I mean, if you want parents running things, why do we require teachers have degrees?
Re: Yet another reason to not vote for democrats
Then why is this a reason not to vote for Democrats, since things would be just as bad if we voted for Republicans?
I mean, we see what Republicans do to gay kids when they are in charge. Hell, if Republicans are completely in charge, they outlaw homosexual behavior and people completely.
Re: Yet another reason to not vote for democrats
While it makes a good sound bite to decry government control of schools claiming parents are out of the loop the reality is parents have a big say in their schools through their school boards. The parents have control of the school board through their votes. They have the right to attend and speak at open school board meetings. They have the right to petition the school board if they disagree with their policies or actions. If they disagree with the school board they can also initiate a recall of any or all board members. They have the right to petition for redress the policies state and federal governments impose on school districts.JoeMemphis wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2023 8:36 pm As long as public education is in the hands of the government and parents are pretty much out of the loop, you will get what we have now or worse.

The ultimate say would be if they could choose the actual school their kids attended. Wouldn’t that be cool?Number6 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2023 1:09 pm While it makes a good sound bite to decry government control of schools claiming parents are out of the loop the reality is parents have a big say in their schools through their school boards.

So you’re saying that no matter what outlandish thing a parent wants, the government must provide an individualized education for each child?JoeMemphis wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2023 3:39 pm I favor Anything to improve education in this country. Giving parents choice is allowing them the ultimate “say” in the education of their children. So I’m for that.

Re: Yet another reason to not vote for democrats
It sure sounds like it. That’s what your statement said. So what is the government responsible for paying for? If your child wants to be an astronaut, must they provide all the training for it?
