Who’s teaching the teachers?

[Cowguy]

I’ll start by stating this is one person’s experience, but if it’s even half true, people should be terrified.

College textbooks/classes are more left than msnbc.

Without going into a lot of specifics, friend of mine was asked to moderate this type of subject matter, but not related to the Ed department at OSU. This person was somewhat taken aback by where the “directors” wanted to direct the discussion about white privilege, inherit pay inequality between different sexes doing the same job, overt institutionalized racism and other assorted social justice bs. After listening to some of the mediation efforts, told this person to finish the first participation once then graciously decline next time.

The indoctrination model of education is creating a generational underclass of non-critical thinking nit wits and I believe it’s infinitely more prevalent than stories like this.

If I were the person that wrote the article would think about investigative journalism as a career or something similar but not go anywhere near a classroom because if he doesn’t toe the line his fellow teachers and union reps will ostracize him and even create problems for him.

Thats the problem. The grievance blob continues to grow while we just shake our head and do something else. We avoid participating.

It is alarming what passes for fact and how liberal talking points are reinforced. The people writing these books are bold and unshackled.

The most glaring wrong assumption that is the glue that holds it all together is diversity can be achieved through skin color. I get gender, religious background, sexual orientation, age, area/country of origin, and socioeconomic upbringing, but race?

The funny thing is you can’t even ask most of these things in a job interview. The only way to get your diversity fix is by looking at the person. The exact opposite of how we were taught to judge people.


Somehow the huxtable kids check the same box as a black person from Mississippi and the same box as a black person from Uganda. Five native Americans who grew up in Cleveland check the same box as five who grew up on a reservation. A poor white kid with a homosexual father, overcame stuttering as a child and spent four summers in China checks zero diversity boxes.

The whole setup is insane, but worshipped by the left.

In 1965, Paul Harvey nailed it.

This is unbelievably prophetic. Almost chills-down-the-spine inducing.

The real diversity is in diversity of thought. Now you might achieve that goal by selecting people based on those other innate characteristics. But you might not. How about we judge people as individuals as opposed to what arbitrary category labels one might want to impose on them?

 

[Medic007]

We tried that before and too much racism disappeared. A focus on race is required to pump up the racism levels. The left doesn't care if it's real or imagined at this point. They'll drag the corpse of either through the street while screeching their virtue at everyone, reminding us daily of how important race is to them. It's nothing more than the days of their KKK with a sugary coating.

It's been so successful at whipping up the frenzy of their base that they've expanded the labelling market to anything they can turn into a victim needing their rescue.

True story from last night.

My daughter is a senior in HS just about to graduate. She is taking a concurrent English class at Tulsa Community College. Her new assignment is to write a paper on how as a female that toxic masculinity is negatively effecting her.

Very proud of her of what she told her mom that she was going to write.

She decided to respond to the essay that while there are certainly some bad behaving males, that toxic masculinity is an vastly overused term that is way too broadly applied. And that focusing on the behaviors of a very small group of bad actors undervalues the importance of gender constructs. Males, by nature, should behave in a more masculine behavior and that normal characteristics of masculinity is not only fine but needed in society. Too often the media and feminist study articles condemn normal behavior and incorrectly deem it negative.

I've always been confused by the left's comments that men are toxic but that the genders are also either equal or that genders don't exist at all.

It is a weird gumbo of arguments.

They don't know what any of it means either. Some academic dorks and activist types come up with the nonsense and the left leaning voters just nod their heads. That's been exposed multiple times here. A really fine example was when the question was asked "what do we need to be doing with white privilege?," the best response they could come up with is "don't be part of the problem."

I find it ironic that the girl articulately blew up broad generalizations as logic, and then everyone seems to agree and attacks their own broad generalization, e.g. the left.
