@AliceFromQueens All right, but all of those are downstream of "let's import the entire third world," a policy of which Mamdani himself is a beneficiary! How does he propose to address any of this without undermining the Dems' fundamental project?
@solomonmissouri The school featured in the recent article about how badly public schools are failing their students spends $52,000 per student per year
@conor64 They are not "failing" the children in their calculus, and replacing them would mean QUITE LITERALLY firing ONE THOUSAND BLACK WOMEN and you are NOT UP TO THE TASK of even ASKING for that. You have swum out into DANGEROUS WATERS where the only lifeline is UNTHINKABLE TO YOU.
@conor64 You don't understand what actually happens in these schools. You're telling a just-so story where everyone is trying to educate children. The admin want power and easy jobs and the teachers want to liquidate kulaks (or would, if they knew what that meant). YOU ARE OLD AND WRONG.
@Gnaritas91 Ideally, but I can't emphasize enough that these people are true believers who think they're ushering in the revolution. They do not care about breaking the law and will keep enforcing insane standards until they're made to stop, i.e. rooted out and replaced. It is a big problem!
Conor doesn't get it. If you grade the homework, the black kids fail. If you suspend troublemakers, they're disproportionately black. Both of those things constitue racial discrimination on the grounds of "disparate impact." The teachers literally do not have a choice.
As sympathetic as I am to principals and teachers, if you run a school that routinely fails to supervise young kids at lunch, or that neglects to review a student's math work for errors, *you should be fired.* That no one demands this or imagines it possible is a problem.
@cehoskinson Accurate; it is not an exaggeration to say that the ONLY two historical events, like the only two things in all of human history, of which most of these students are aware are American slavery and the holocaust. It goes without saying that both are presented as "fuck whitey."
@boknowsike1973 Half of them are black goldbrickers who have an incredibly easy career that earns them community respect and a path towards to do-nothing admin job, many of which pay well. The other half are like the distilled essence of a Portland antifa commune.
The teachers and admin at these places are a combination of the laziest black government employees you can imagine and the most turbo-pozzed communists on God's green flat Earth. The latter half SERIOUSLY BELIEVE that if you're suspending black students, the problem is YOU.
@Alt_Azn I don't want to hate on my autistic fellows but I have seen a lot of discussion about how the virus in the movie isn't the same as one of the viruses from the games and brother, I do not care
@ChristianHeiens@ChooseGoodKarma It's a huge indictment of these people's historical illiteracy that they can't recognize an obvious paraphrase of 18th century writing when they see it, much less recognize its particular origin.
@RealDianeYap@neiltwit If I, a white guy, had been born in China to white parents and spoke fluent Chinese and had Chinese citizenship somehow, nobody would say that I'm "Chinese." They just wouldn't. You know it, and I know it. You have a backup country. We don't.
@iihspodcast The problem is definitely not poverty. When the Vietnamese came here they were the poorest it was possible to be and suffered none of these problems. The issue is culture, which is downstream of race, on top of a massive entitlement complex given to them by the left.
