You can’t make this up. It’s just like the old saying goes: “Teach a child to fear and hate and he’ll vote for you for a lifetime. Teach a child to use the resources at their disposal and he’ll be an independent thinker, and a powerful contributor to society.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you believe it’s better if our public education system teaches a specific minority to fear and hate people of another race for something that occurred over a century ago, and cannot at the same time teach them how they were able to ‘overcome’? Wonderful! That’ll work out well for them. It lacks the logic to grasp the argument you presented and ran right back into some other moronic MSNBC talking point.

Joe Ferguson forever Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 (edited) The R party is becoming grumpier and less educated https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/31/us/politics/2024-poll-nyt-siena-trump-republicans.html Increasingly on the trail, Mr. DeSantis is calling attention to his “blue-collar” roots and his decision to serve in the military as reasons voters should support him as he runs against a self-professed billionaire. But the poll showed Mr. Trump lapping Mr. DeSantis among likely Republican primary voters earning less than $50,000, 65 percent to 9 percent. As of now, Mr. DeSantis’s few demographic refuges — places where he is losing by smaller margins — are more upscale pockets of the electorate. He trailed Mr. Trump by a less daunting 12 points among white voters with college degrees, 37 to 25 percent. Among those earning more than $100,000, Mr. DeSantis was behind by 23 points, half the deficit he faced among the lowest earners. 37% of college educated R's support trump in this poll....

You stated this was not true. So since they had no skills how did they survive? You're wasting your time. Logic is beyond Billsy. The Florida slavery smear By Rich Lowry There have been so many poisonous and stupid lies about Florida since 2020, it's almost hard to keep track, but the latest may be the most outrageous. As you might have heard thanks to the vice president of the United States, Florida allegedly wants to teach its students that slavery benefited slaves. In reality, the Florida curriculum on slavery is extensive and includes pretty much everything you'd want a child to know about this enormity. The occasion for the Kamala Harris smear is one line that says, "Instruction includes how slaves developed skills which, in some instances, could be applied for their personal benefit." This is not the first thing, or even the 19th, that you'd want students to learn about slavery, but it is also indisputably true. No one is saying the enslaved "benefited" from slavery. It's not an endorsement of slavery to point out that slaves looked for every crack in the system to try to improve themselves and gain some autonomy -- rather, it's an endorsement of the initiative and resilience of an oppressed people operating in the worst of circumstances. We are supposed to believe that enslaved African Americans strained against their awful condition in every way -- learning to read, worshiping on their own, defying their masters when they could, creating an elaborate system of escape, but they never, ever learned a skill to their own benefit. This is, of course, nonsense. The Advanced Placement African American Studies curriculum that Florida has rejected contains almost exactly the same language about skills as the state's curriculum--without causing a firestorm of criticism. https://jewishworldreview.com/0723/lowry073123.php 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
