How come democrats are anti-education?

[Wyatt earp]

I am specifically talking about U.S. history.

Reading these threads over the past 16 years in these forums, liberals keep on saying over and over the same ignorant propaganda.

Its like have they ever even bothered to read a history book?

Examples:

1. High taxes and Unions in the 1950~1980

Why do they ignore WWII , the world was in ruins, the only standing country to produce was The U.S.A.

Why do they ignore the lack of regulations? Lack of government agency's like the EPA that was started by Nixion? Why they ignore the lack of Quality control..any one with a few bucks could start a company in a garage and build an empire?

Why do they ignore the fact no one paid those high taxes?

Why do they ignore the fact the world caught up?

Why do they ignore the fact no one wants to work for private Unions?

2. Why do democrats ignore their own history? What is the big deal?


How many democrats know that following the Civil War, 23 blacks -- 13 of them ex-slaves -- were elected to Congress, all as Republicans?

The first black Democrat was not elected to Congress until 1935, from the state of Illinois. The first black congressional Democrat from a Southern state was not elected until 1973.




How many democrats know, in 1854, passed the Kansas-Nebraska Act?

This overturned the Missouri Compromise and allowed for the importation of slaves into the territories. Disgusted with the passage of this Act, free-soilers and anti-slavery members of the Whig and Democratic parties founded the Republican Party -- not just to stop the spread of slavery, but to eventually abolish it.

How many democrats know that blacks founded the Texas Republican Party?

On July 4, 1867, in Houston, Texas, 150 blacks and 20 whites formed the party. No, not the Black Texas Republican Party, they founded the Texas Republican Party. Blacks across Southern states also founded the Republican parties in their states.

How many democrats know Fugitive slave laws?

In 1850, Democrats passed the Fugitive Slave Law. If merely accused of being a slave, even if the person enjoyed freedom all of his or her life (as approximately 11 percent of blacks did just before the Civil War), the person lost the right to representation by an attorney, the right to trial by jury, and the right to habeas corpus.

How many democrats know Emancipation?

Republican President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation during the Civil War. In 1865, the 13th Amendment emancipating the slaves was passed with 100 percent of Republicans (88 of 88 in the House, 30 of 30 in the Senate) voting for it. Only 23 percent of Democrats (16 of 66 in the House, 3 of 8 in the Senate) voted for it.

How many democrats know Civil rights laws?

In 1868, the 14th Amendment was passed giving the newly emancipated blacks full civil rights and federal guarantee of those rights, superseding any state laws. Every single voting Republican (128 of 134 -- with 6 not voting -- in the House, and 30 of 32 -- with 2 not voting -- in the Senate) voted for the 14th Amendment. Not a single Democrat (zero of 36 in the House, zero of 6 in the Senate) voted for it.

How many democrats knowRight to vote?

When Southern states balked at implementing the 14th Amendment, Congress came back and passed the 15th Amendment in 1870, guaranteeing blacks the right to vote. Every single Republican voted for it, with every Democrat voting against it.

Ku Klux Klan? In 1872 congressional investigations, Democrats admitted beginning the Klan as an effort to stop the spread of the Republican Party and to re-establish Democratic control in Southern states. As PBS' "American Experience" notes, "In outright defiance of the Republican-led federal government, Southern Democrats formed organizations that violently intimidated blacks and Republicans who tried to win political power. The most prominent of these, the Ku Klux Klan, was formed in Pulaski, Tenn., in 1865." Blacks, who were all Republican at that time, became the primary targets of violence.



Jim Crow laws? Between 1870 and 1875, the Republican Congress passed many pro-black civil rights laws. But in 1876, Democrats took control of the House, and no further race-based civil rights laws passed until 1957. In 1892, Democrats gained control of the House, the Senate and the White House, and repealed all the Republican-passed civil rights laws. That enabled the Southern Democrats to pass the Jim Crow laws, poll taxes, literacy tests, and so on, in their individual states.

Civil rights in the '60s? Only 64 percent of Democrats in Congress voted for the 1964 Civil Rights Act (153 for, 91 against in the House; and 46 for, 21 against in the Senate). But 80 percent of Republicans (136 for, 35 against in the House; and 27 for, 6 against in the Senate) voted for the 1964 Act.


Again I say..

Why are democrats so anti education?

Why?

They don't educate they indoctrinate. A parent is a fool to send their child to a public school

That's odd! I learned all of that information from my public education and I taught for 21 years.

My public school senior history book stopped in 1944. I had to get the History channel to find out who won World War II. The point is, most of my learning was done on my own anyway.

I used to bitch I had to relearn history after highschool from all the propaganda half truths they taught.

I'm intrigued-what half truths, like slaves were unwilling workers?

A huge WWII guy, they taught wrong

Does the op realize that the US became a true socialist state during WW2? The gov totally controlled means of distribution in our economy.

 

[deanrd]

The majority of Republicans say colleges are bad for America (yes, really)

Sometimes you just have to believe what they’re telling you. Whether you believe or not, at least listen.

What does that have to do with my OP?

Study just a few incidents to gain a broader view of history, such as the history of the labor movement, and particularly the wars in the coal fields. It might also be interesting to note that the two parties switched sides from at least the 1970's on. Remember Nixon's "southern strategy"?

 

[WillMunny]

Because Democrats are so obsessed with glorifying the psychiatric disorder of gender dysphoria. And science proves it is biologically impossible for a human being to change gender; if your cells are filled with a row of Y-shaped chromosomes, you are male at the most basic level of your existence. No amount of hormones or surgery will change the male configuration of one's DNA!

See, I'm compassionate enough to believe that transgenders need some serious mental help, not enabling of a delusion that is biologically impossible and has a 40% suicide rate. Which is further proof that gender dysphoria is a serious mental illness; any activity with a 40% suicide rate is VERY mentally ill.

All 4 of my kids got great educations in our rural high school here. I'm still looking for this indoctrination....it's like Sasquatch. It's there it's just very hard to find.

That's because you obviously were kicked out of school in 1945!

The history books I used were only 5-6 years out of date, mainly because the state would not buy new ones.

IMPEACH Donald Trump 666 the current Antichrist

The Bible prophesies the return of the Christ and the 666 Antichrist. Donald Trump = "six hundred sixty-six (666)" using the Evil=48 Code of A=49, B50...Z74. He's the current Antichrist whose actions are the opposite of the Christ, e.g. he's a compulsive/pathological liar who worships Gold, not God. He's extremely greedy and boastful. He helps the rich while hurting the poor. He wants to torture. Etc.

Donald Trump 666 is an evil genius, but he's not smarter than the returned Christ. Trump is guilty of treason, collusion, obstructing justice, personally profiting from being president, and cheating at golf!

In 1892, Democrats gained control of the House, the Senate and the White House, and repealed all the Republican-passed civil rights laws. That enabled the Southern Democrats to pass the Jim Crow laws, poll taxes, literacy tests, and so on, in their individual states.

Civil rights in the '60s? Only 64 percent of Democrats in Congress voted for the 1964 Civil Rights Act (153 for, 91 against in the House; and 46 for, 21 against in the Senate). But 80 percent of Republicans (136 for, 35 against in the House; and 27 for, 6 against in the Senate) voted for the 1964 Act.


Again I say..

Why are democrats so anti education?

Why?

They don't educate they indoctrinate. A parent is a fool to send their child to a public school

That's odd! I learned all of that information from my public education and I taught for 21 years.

My public school senior history book stopped in 1944. I had to get the History channel to find out who won World War II. The point is, most of my learning was done on my own anyway.

That's because you obviously were kicked out of school in 1945!

The history books I used were only 5-6 years out of date, mainly because the state would not buy new ones.

Not much older than you, book was used in 1968. And what is with the kicked out of school crack? Back then we did not back down from an insult- do you want to get insulted?

Why? Are you going to continue to post lies about schools?

I've always found the most humorous lack of education the "lost cause" myth. Where it seems that those fighting the hardest to keep statues of those founding fathers and leaders of the Confederacy so we "don't forget our history" have the most warped, and least factual beliefs on it.
