      How fucking poignant would it be for the school shootings to be at all the white only schools by white students? Certainly would be reflective of the last decade of this shit.

        Then they would just claim the kid was influenced my “critical race theory” and “white guilt” and use it to justify segregating other places and stamping out and left leaning ideas.

        Never underestimate the ability for evil people to spin anything to their advantage.

    Bullshit headline, though the reality is not flattering either.

    Instead, the statement reframed the remarks as referring to political and ideological separation, not race. Noble wrote that Republicans have ‘self-segregated out of the leftist indoctrination centres for decades’ and suggested that if Democrats had their own schools and Republicans theirs, families could choose accordingly, citing the state’s education freedom account programme.

    Her statement criticised what she described as excessive focus on social justice in public education, including references to gender identity policies and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) curricula, arguing such emphases led to ‘terrible test scores.’ Republican lawmakers have otherwise been cautious in public articulation of support for Noble. Rep. Mike Belcher, another committee member, responded via email that he interpreted Noble’s reference as a ‘quip meant to be humorous’, but declined to endorse ideologically segregated schools as policy.

      Here’s the thing, and I’d bet my next paycheck Noble knew this, the word segregation has a very specific meaning in American society and politics.

      By using the word segregation, they are very much signaling race.

        I guess it’s different in a school system, but my line of work uses “Segregate” weekly in terms of separating defective product

          Defective product you say?

          I’m not sure that’s changes it’s meaning, I wonder what the defective product is in Rep. Nobles mind.

      That’s what she claims she meant because the reality is fucked up. I don’t believe a single word that anyone in this administrations says though. Do you? At best you are naive, but more likely you are selling the lies of this evil bitch for ideological reasons. What does segregation mean? In what context has it ALWAYS been used?

      Unsure if I wanna say this would be funny to see because the R schools would just be literal trash, and thus they’d have to actively choose a D school if they wanted the “best school” for their kid.

      Or sad because they’d be happy to have dumb fucks who can get even more indoctrinated.

        I just wanna know what the party of “you don’t need all those book smarts” plans to replace “social justice” topics with instead. I bet it’s Christianity studies. And by studies, I mean indoctrinations.

      Arguably this is worse. Segregation is at least based in history and straightforward. This is just stupid, echo chamber nonsense.

      That’s funny. These won’t be public schools. They’re already using tax money for private charter schools. Public schools will be defunded and destroyed.

      A losing proposition regardless.

      There is no one that will, in good faith, meet you at this curious crossroads. The right-wing will smile and congratulate themselves on duping another willing to compromise. The left will call you unprincipled and feckless.
