@BigWaffal@GKCdaily You realize there are great public schools out there, right?
How do you tell the difference between a doctor’s kid who went to Harvard after a public school and a doctor’s kid who went to Harvard after a private or homeschool?
@jofromcoastalFL@ModestTeacher The fact that the US was never #1 in education makes the claim bs.
It’s a right wing talking point that has been repeated so much that people believe it.
Of course I want the US education system to be better! It’s my life’s work!
Spreading misinformation doesn’t help, though.
@jofromcoastalFL@ModestTeacher Far out.
Is education also one of your fields?
I’d never presume to tell you anything about Econ or finance.
I agree about verifying!!
Cite one reputable source that says that the US was ever tops in education, please.
At the least, stop reposting bullshit you read online.
@jofromcoastalFL@ModestTeacher Well, my doctorate in education is from Peabody at Vanderbilt.
I’m probably more informed than you.
You’re the one who told me to “Google it”. That was the result.
Do you have any evidence to the contrary?
@JohnstonCW22@jimiuorio Is the school really encouraging the absence? Is that happening on a wide scale?
If so, sue the blue firmament out of the school.
@CrusaderPatriot@Matt_Pinner They were on THE MOON.
Of course they could plant an angled camera.
I forgot if the camera tracked the LEM or if it was a static shot…but I’m pretty sure filming leaving the moon wasn’t a particularly difficult task….compared to the rest of the endeavor.
@GjofFreyr@Grunt2A Your claim is that modern punk bands support the government.
While there are always exceptions, in general, I call bullshit on your claim.
My friends and I have strong political opinions, but NONE of us shill for a political party or the government.
@GjofFreyr@Grunt2A Yup, punk rock is primarily a left leaning movement, but there are certainly exceptions.
The claim was that punk bands support the government.
The current president and Senate are republican. The Supreme Courts has a conservative majority.
Doubt too many punks are pro gov.
@BowTiedAsset @BowtiedQueenBee@ModestTeacher I hate that you had such an experience.
I am a principal at a very good public school (one of the best in the state).
I also went to public schools until college. My brother, friends, and I had positive experiences.
They are not all like what you experienced/think.
