Why many conservatives find education dangerous

[citygator]

The overly simplistic characterization of a complex issue that you just offered is exactly the point of the article and my post. To believe a broad education system that is decentralized into local control as an indoctrination process is absurd. Utterly absurd.

Indoctrination is merely the result of the overwhelming number of deluded liberals working in the overall educational system, and their propensity to pass their DUPED ideas on to students. Doesn't really matter much if it's all centralized or decentralized.

Link to any study suggesting liberal brain washing exists in schools?

On the life of a white American or a black American? Can you see how it would be quite different?

Yes, I nailed it. "Our" educational system didn't just fail me. It failed everyone in America. No school on any level anywhere, teaches police confrontation behavior.

And yes I would say it is "Our largest educational shortfall" since deaths, riots, and Billions$$$ in damages, have resulted from that shortfall.

As for unequal access to education, that reminds me of when 25 students in my graduate school had to drop out (and lose their chosen careers), simply because they were not black. Assistantships were granted only to 8 students, all blacks, and all who were in the lowest ranks academically. I was one of those racially discriminated against graduate students, and my whole life was diminished from it.

"Unequal access to education" is known as Affirmative Action. Amazingly, still legal in 42 states.

The number one issue in education isn’t that they don’t teach how to respond to a police stop. Jesus that’s a hoot.

Your story is bullshit. You missed out on an opportunity and made up facts as to why. Sad.

This is a lie.

You clearly don't have kids in the schools.

My wife is a woman of color, which means my daughters are.

Lily white teachers constantly tell them they are racist for not being Marxist Democrats.

You're sick people.

I have two graduate degrees and I'm no leftist you may have noticed. How many do you have?

You missed on all accounts. First clearly you made it through education without being brainwashed.

Second, I have 2 kids getting public school educations. One in med school the other in HS. Politics was never an issue. Finally I have 3 degrees. 2 undergrads 1 masters. Both from top 6 public institutions. Umich and UF.

Huh, leftist politics in schools wasn't an issue for leftists. I'd say wow, what an insight, but it wasn't. And you call me dumb? Can you dress yourself, moron? You're a total racist

The initial post indicates a lack of intelligence as if it was written by a 5th grader ....."why don't conservatives (fill in the blanks)". It's a cheap shot typical of the under-educated left these days.

Typically, when someone has to tell you they're smarter than you, they aren't. The truly smart don't have to advertise.

Can't be but so dumb. He became a multi-billionaire in real estate and POTUS without the support of a major party. That's not easy to do. Plus, he had the kind of education the OP was talking about.

Just going by what you’re saying. If you’re calling yourself smart, you’re not.

Not a lot of people spend as much time as Trump trying to convince others they are smart.

That's why I said "typically". Sometimes you get people who are smart but insecure. Based on what I've seen with TRUMP!, he's both. His track record of accomplishment tends to intelligence while his bragging tweets tend to insecurity. It appears that no amount of accomplishment can overcome his internal lack of self-worth.

A quick short read that nails it. Conservatives think education is brainwashing when in fact education gives one the tools to freely reject poorly supported arguments and bad logic.

There is no mystery why conservatives find education dangerous. A 2015 Pew Research Center study quantified that the better educated one is, the more likely one is to hold liberal beliefs. But I’d argue, contrary to what conservatives seem to feel, that’s not because of bullying professors shouting left-wing dogma. Rather, it’s because once you learn how to think, you’re less susceptible to thin reasoning and easy answers. And increasingly, that’s all conservatism’s got.

That would mean that nobody likes authority figures, because liberals have been doing that for decades.

Eh. His accomplishments aren’t nearly as grand as they are made out to be.

Guy started on third base after all. His greatest accomplishments generally are finding ways to make other people pay for his failings.

Outside that, he’s talented in reading a room and bullshitting people.

But in terms of knowledge of how things work, like you know the government he was running, not so much.

'A quick short read that nails it. Conservatives think education CRT is brainwashing when in fact education gives one the tools to freely reject poorly supported arguments and bad logic.'

There, I fixed it for you.

You claim to value 'education' =, but you are completely ignorant about 'Critical Race Theory':


'Critical race theory (CRT) is an outgrowth of Marxism. Karl Marx taught that capitalism is based on the exploitation of the proletariat by the bourgeoisie. In other words, the owners oppress the workers.'

'Critical race theory goes far beyond Marxism. Society, many believe, is organized upon systemic racism. '(SOUND FAMILIAR, SNOWFLAKE?) 'It is not simply owners versus workers. It is white versus black. It is men versus women. It is rich versus poor. CRT believes that society is inherently racist. (Again, SOUND FAMILIAR, SNOWFLAKE?) It divides the world into white oppressors versus non-white victims.'



WHY SHOULD WE LISTEN TO PROVEN FAILED COUP CONSPIRATORS, FAILED BOGUS IMPEACHMENT MEMBERS, DEMOCRATS AHOHAVE BEEN PROVEN TO HAVE TAKEN MILLIONS / OVER A BILLION FOM THE RUSSIANS AND CCP AND THE MINDLESS PARROTS WHO SUPPORT THEM, NO MATTER HOW MUCH EVIDENCE COMES OUT AGAINST THEIR DEMOCRAT POLITICIANS?

WHY SHOULD WE LISTEN TO TDS-SUFFERING, IRRATIONAL HATE-DRIVEN, CRIMINAL DEMOCRAT-SUPPORTING SHEEP WHO ARE RULED BY THEIR EMOTIONS INSTEAD OF FACTS AND THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY LIVED THROUGH WHAT DEMOCRATS ARE PUTTING THIS NATION THROUGH NOW?


I prefer to listen to former Communist / Socialist / Marxist regimes, who lived through the oppressive beginnings, the purges, and the total conversion of their nations into Communist / Socialist / Marxist regimes:


Yuri Bezmenov served many years with the KGB. He defected from Russia to America in 1970. Bezmenov said that the first stage in destroying a nation is demoralization. A nation must be convinced that their history is bad. We see this today. Many teach that our founding fathers were racists who built a society based upon oppression.



A North Korean defector said she viewed the US as country of free thought and free speech – until she went to college here.

Yeonmi Park attended Columbia University and was immediately struck by what she viewed anti-Western sentiment in the classroom and a focus on political correctness that had her thinking “even North Korea isn’t this nuts.”

“I expected that I was paying this fortune, all this time and energy, to learn how to think. But they are forcing you to think the way they want you to think,” Park told Fox News. “I realized, wow, this is insane. I thought America was different but I saw so many similarities to what I saw in North Korea that I started worrying.”


Yeonmi Park, like Yuri, lived through the change, purge, transition to Communism...and both are saying THEY SEE THE SAME THINGS THAT HAPPENED IN / TO THEIR COUNTRY HAPPENING NOW IN THE US, which started with Saul Alinsky student Barak Obama and has continued in Joe Puppet' Biden's administration.


Of course, stupid snowflakes like you aren't smart enough to listen to someone who has already lived through it. You would rather the exposed treasonous Democrats and dementia-ravaged, CCP/Putin-purchase Biden manipulate you and tell you what to think/ say.

Sorry, Iam listening to the people who have 'been there / done that / don't want it again'.


What you call 'education' is 'Indoctrination'.....Yeonmi Park knows a little about 'indoctrination', having lived in North Korea, and she is sounding the alarm that the education being forced on our military and our children is 'Indoctrination'.

I'm going with facts, experience, and evidence rather than you emotions.

Still, he did things none of his detractors ever managed to do. And thank God, one of his accomplishments was sending Hillary into retirement.

I mean, doing things no one ever managed to do isn’t always great. I never tried to defraud investors to cover up my own failing casino.

By this logic, Biden is a genius since sent Trump back to Florida.
