‘College Big Shot: Go Easy on Goons’ (2017)

Report: New Evergreen Provost Requests Lenient Grading for Protesters

Scholars all (baseball bats optional)

In 2017 Evergreen College, in Washington, held a “Diversity Day” which achieved True Diversity by barring white persons from the campus.

College Big Shot: Go Easy on Goons

But what’s really memorable is the college’s crowning achievement in hypocrisy. Goons who rioted, attacked and injured people, destroyed property, and terrorized innocents who crossed their path… were praised by the college! They “diverted time and energy from their academic work”–oh, oh, oh! And all for “institutional change and social justice.”

So that’s what it was? Looked like a riot to me.

“Higher education” is destroying us.

 

Had Enough Yet, Parents?

You want your kiddies “educated” by him? Really? Would you believe this mutant is a “dean” in a public high school? Have we truly come to this?

Today’s public schooling outrage comes to us from Fairfax County, VA, where the district school board has ruled to prohibit teachers from notifying parents when their child “decides” to “change gender” (https://freebeacon.com/campus/virginia-school-district-prohibits-teachers-from-contacting-parents-when-students-change-gender/). Sorry for the quotation marks. We need them when we talk about crapola.

So if your child “decides” to change his name, use the opposite-sex bathroom, or demand the use of really silly pronouns… the teacher is prohibited from letting the child’s parents know.

And if a teacher’s “personal beliefs” get in the way–so what? That’s the policy. Obey it or else.

No parental consent is required anywhere along the line. What would move a little kid in kindergarten to say “I’m non-binary!”? Uh… let’s see… crystal ball… Ooh-ooh, I know! Praise and approval from the “teachers”! Lots of attention! And if some other kid bugs you, you can have him or her totally destroyed because nothin’, baby, nothin’ trumps transgender!

Supposedly Congressional action is brewing over this (good luck finding any Democrat who’ll buck the trannies); and by jove, Fairfax Co. schools currently have hundreds of job vacancies! It must be hard finding people who are evil enough to teach there.

Meanwhile, parents have elected a “shadow board” whose job will be to monitor and rebut the real board. It has no authority.

Look, it’s simple. These “educators” are out to wreck our country, and the schools are how they do it. The only effective remedy is to take the children out of the schools and end public education.

Before it ends America.

Teachers’ Union: Ban ‘Mother’ and ‘Father’

Posted By: leeduigonPosted On:

Need we say more?

Do you really want your children “educated” by these people? Really?

America’s biggest union, the National Education Assn., currently holding its annual conference in Chicago (where else?), has called for a ban of the words “mother” and “father.” But that’s only because they’re, like, anti-human.

They’ve also called for mandatory masks and vaccines in all the schools. Yes, we said “mandatory.” So much for “choice.”

And then there are gems like this. One of their resolutions–we quote:

“NEA shall create a policy task force to develop strategies for placing the intersectionality of climate justice and environmental racism at the center of all relevant conversations and business,” blah-blah.

I wouldn’t let my house plants be “taught” by these characters. What is the matter with people who keep on sending their kids to public school?

Beats me!

‘How We Trash Our Country’ (2019)

There’s never been a presidency more harmful to our country than the one that we’re enduring now; but let us never, never, never forget that all the seed of it was planted from 2008 to 2016… by *Batteries Not Included.

And the worst thing he did was stir up racial animosity. On purpose. With results like this:

How We Trash Our Country

It all starts in the schools. The nooze media, Hollywood, and our fat-headed leaders play their parts, but the biggest wrecking ball is “public education.” And as you can see by the attached nooze story, some of the private schools are every bit as bad.

Don’t send your children back there in September.

 

Parents Sue Loudon County Schools

They won’t heed your protests while your kids are still in their schools.

I’m all for suing school districts where they batter the kiddies with transgender, Critical Race Theory, and pornography. That’s why parents in Loudon County, Virginia, have mounted a lawsuit against their local school district (https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/washington-secrets/suit-hits-loudoun-schools-mafia-tactics-against-students-parents). They’ve accused district officials of using “mafia tactics” to intimidate parents.

There’s one thing wrong with this picture, though. You sue the schools. They bring in their lawyers to defend them. And who pays for the lawyers to defend your ever-lovin’ “school officials”?

You do! You, the plaintiffs! Out of your sky-high school taxes!

Who’s idea of fairness is that?

The one thing that really works is to pull all the kids out of public school and let the system die. Face it: you’ll never convince the teachers’ unions to behave like decent human beings. All they want is the “fundamental transformation” of America–and they’ll destroy anyone and anything that gets in their way.

Lawsuits are fun; but withdrawing the children from the system will actually work.

We have to teach our ruling class that “consent of the governed” is not an empty phrase.

State AG Sues Scottsdale Schools (Spying on Parents!)

Group protests Critical Race Theory at Fort Worth ISD school board meeting

School board meetings never used to be this loud.

Once upon a time it would’ve been just about impossible to believe a scenario like this (https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/06/23/arizona-ag-sues-school-district-accused-blocking-public-comment-during-meetings-parents-should-never-silenced/): A school board knowingly violating the law and a board president spying on parents.

This is what’s happening in Scottsdale, AZ–where the state attorney general is suing the school district for trying to silence free speech on controversial topics (like the highly unpopular “mask mandate”) and, of course–public bodies do this a lot–violating the state’s Open Meeting Law in a variety of not-so-clever ways. This was all in 2021. (See https://leeduigon.com/2021/11/15/youre-out-scottsdale-az-school-board-president/).

In addition, the former board president is being sued for spying on parents and publishing their private information… which made them highly vulnerable to identity theft and other crimes.

Do you remember a time when local school boards were your friends and neighbors, who represented you and did the best they could? Not any more! I covered local school boards as a reporter in the 1970s. Nothing–nothing!–like this was going on… although the state and federal governments were already working to erase local autonomy in education. Looks like they’ve done a pretty good job of it.

Well, the state of Arizona is now suing these jerks; and I hope we see some pretty hefty criminal penalties dished out. This really has to stop.

And at this point public education itself has to stop.

Deep Thoughts with Kamala Harris: Is Veep's Babbling Self-Sabotage or Dem Effort to Ruin Her? - YouTube

In case you couldn’t define ‘sarcasm’…

You can fight a foreign foe. (Well, you can try: it gets kind of difficult when your generals are paralyzed by fear of Climbit Change). But how do you fight home-grown stupidity? How does a country survive an education system that generates battalions of dopes like Kamala Harris?

Governed by Ninnies

We are in deep, deep trouble. Our public schools and universities make people stupid. We might not have enough homeschooled young people to carry us over the time it takes to get rid of our current education system and replace it.

Because you ain’t fixin’ it, people. It’s too far gone for that.

If you don’t think so, listen to Kamala.

Priming Ourselves for Disaster

West Point graduate who wore Che Guevara T-shirt discharged - BBC News

Whose side are they on?

What is the job of any national military organization? To defend the nation–right?

So what sense does it make to teach upcoming young military officers that the country they’ll be called upon to defend is an evil, racist, oppressive hell-hole?

But that’s what they’re teaching the cadets at West Point: Critical Race Theory (“All white people are oppressors; all non-white people are oppressed”). Oh–and also how to “address whiteness” (https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/06/us-army-teaching-west-point-cadets-racist-anti-american-critical-race-theory-including-addressing-whiteness/).

Judicial Watch had to win a lawsuit before they could get this information: Dept. of Defense wouldn’t release it. They knew they had something to hide, and they were hiding it.

In a big dust-up with, say, Red China… would our young officers know which side they were supposed to fight for?

We need a new commander-in-chief who will put a stop to this at once. Every man or woman who ever taught this poison–dishonorable discharge without a pension. Remove the commandant of West Point: bust him down to private and then kick him out without a pension.

Then it’ll be the voters’ duty to make sure no Democrat is ever again elected president. ‘Cause this schiff only happens when you’ve got one of those in the White House.

Will the Colleges Defund Themselves?

🔥 College Degrees are Becoming Worthless - YouTube

Since the “pandemic” launched in 2020, college enrollment in America has decreased by 4.1%–a drop of some 1.4 million students (https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/community-family/college-enrollment-drops-1-4m-students-threatening-stability-of-higher-education).

Oh! So many students aren’t showing up, it “threatens the long-term stability of higher education”! Not a dry eye in the house.

The decline in enrollment stretches from sea to shining sea, with community colleges hardest hit but both public and private four-year-colleges have seen their student numbers go down in these last two years–an overall decrease of 9.4% since 2020.

Ooh, dem’s bad numbers!

There is, however, a “lone outlier.” Just one kind of college where the enrollment is going up, not down. Most of these colleges, in fact, have experienced record growth.

Yep–“conservative religious colleges.” Why is that so totally unsurprising?

America’s education system has become actively hostile to America and needs to be torn down and replaced from top to bottom.

Although if you like paying $50,000 a year for your kid to major in Intersectional Feminist Fandango Studies, well, then, the looniversity is certainly for you.

I wonder if King COVID taught a lot of people that they can get by without college.

‘The Religion of Our “Universities”‘ (2016)

Posted By: leeduigonPosted On:

Image result for images of stupid college students

Once upon a time universities were founded by Christians and served as hubs of intellectual life and inquiry. As late as the 19th century, most college presidents in America had a clerical background.

But now… Go ahead, ask a bunch of college wallahs what they worship.

The Religion of Our ‘Universities’

Our “education” institutions are tearing down our civilization, and the end result will not be pretty.

If the “educators” could only find something worse, something even more cruel, hopeless, and futile than communism… well, they wouldn’t be commies anymore.
