Wouldnā€™t this be called The Stupid Thread 3?

I feel like thatā€™s happened to one or maybe two other threads - they get called ___ 2 (Part 2) or something like that. Why not just ___ 3?

I assume the (part 2) is autogenerated when the thread overflows. But it fits into the theme. Sort of like a tattoo that says, ā€œNo Regerts.ā€ Or an office named, ā€œThe Redundancy Department of Redundancy.ā€ No being smart when naming the stupid thread.

I think the name is perfect.

Also, guess who is most unhappy with the woke direction of public ā€œeducationā€:

the proportion of American families home-schooling at least one child grew from 5.4% in spring 2020 to 11.1% in fall 2021 , according to a U.S. Census Bureau analysis. Meanwhile, the number of Black families choosing to home-school increased five-fold during that time, from 3.3% to 16.1%.

Conclusion: Stupid (nod to the thread title) patronizing ā€œwokeā€ leftist arseholes are cluelessly circle jerking each other.

Are these kids who decided to not return to school after Covid and are still accessing their schools online? I just wonder if they differentiate between kids learning from home vs kids who are home schooled.

That is a very good synopsis.

When Bill Maher starts to see the idiocy of far left thinking you know itā€™s gone too far.

Heā€™s been roasting the woke for awhile now

ā€œThere is no rationale for assault weapons and magazines that hold 5070 bulletsā€

ā€œNo rationale for assault weaponsā€ says the most well defended person on the face of the planet. Fuck right off Brandon - he jumps STRAIGHT to the fucking narrative ā€˜guns bad, guvmint good - you can trust usā€™.

IDK about you, but this sure as fuck doesnā€™t look like an AR-15 to me

Why not just enroll all of them in honors english courses. They need to quit acting like those kids arenā€™t capableā€¦ā€¦

Thomas Sowell actually spoke about the damages of racial quotas RE mismatching students with expectations. Itā€™s worth listening to if this piques your interest.

The issue with putting EVERYONE in honors programs is that some frankly arenā€™t able to keep up (this has nothing to do with color or background). Not everyone should be put in top 20% career positions because they simply arenā€™t capable; the same goes for schooling. I like the idea of honors programs for students who want them, but it raising the expectation bar can be problematic - so can lowering that bar.

ā€œNo Child Left Behindā€ took many opportunities away from advanced kids by spending additional funding on those who didnā€™t care about school and never would.

:clap:

My wife is a teaching major, and a lot of the lectures sheā€™s forced to read through are blatantly ā€œwokeā€ and remind me of this. The worst was one that discussed how Asians/South Asians are ā€œoverrepresentedā€ in honors/gifted programs, and how we are ā€œunderrepresentedā€ in special ed programs. And the lecture also talked about how this fact was ā€œconcerningā€ and ā€œalarming.ā€

Truthfully, Iā€™d rather have all the students learn the honors material, because there are obviously plenty of kids in the ā€œnormalā€ classes who are capable but just lazy teens like I was haha.

How would that do the lazy kids any good? Presenting them with honors material wonā€™t magically motivate them ā€¦ the issue as you pointed out is their laziness which is by and large a learned trait

That just sounds like commie gobbledygook to me
