There’s quite a lot that teachers do which makes me make a surprised face and go ‘really? And they’re not fired for this?’.

Poor, minority heavy states do badly at education. It doesn’t have much to do with policy it’s about what they have to work with.

Yes, blue states should be prevented from destroying their own education systems. That’s not what the federal DofEd does.

And in phonics that’s exactly what they do. I remember learning to read in Catholic schools(which did not rely on the whole word method) having to do tedious worksheets where the th/sh/ch had to be encoded to let the teacher know it was a single sound. Like written sounding out.

My experience with confused and sometimes at risk youths is that they tend to see anti-male discrimination as a very big deal, and racial divisions as comparatively smaller. A ‘men and married women’ coalition is a winning one.

Wait, that was real? Learn something new every day.

Oil work is high status(in the circles the workers come from) because of the pay. Obviously, you can’t do that with every socially necessary but unpleasant job- you’d just wind up at universal basic six figures and then paying very well no longer makes working on a rig high status.

Adolescents like to become adults. Young men turned to the right because they thought the right was at least trying to help them do that. ‘Rebelling against the status quo’ is usually either 1) fun thing the status quo doesn’t like or 2) burning down rules they identify as keeping them from growing up.

It’s unclear that Christian rehab centers are worse than harm-reduction based ones, to start with.

But if you’d like to work in a Christian charity, start by volunteering. When and if you get hired it will be at a lower rate of pay than elsewhere.

Where I live there are cities with homeless problems and cities without them(housing is cheap enough than anyone who’s minimally functional can rent a room, so long term homeless are dysfunctional). The cities without them have the police beat the homeless until they move. The cities with them just let them concentrate in the ghetto.

There are not enough people in the US willing to be prison guards to make this happen. It’s a low status job.

Most new thoughts are bad ones. I have a lot of respect for boomers who give good life advice based on their experience(somebody has to tell the zoomers how to communicate), but very little of that advice is original.

I mean, this assumes that 1) teachers have agency(many of them do not) and 2) they have the best interests of the kids in mind ahead of their own(at least some teachers are far more interested in going home at four o’clock and drinking margaritas). I suspect that the two problems magnify each other; the median teacher just does whatever she’s told, and the people telling her how to teach will mostly be in the ‘we work til 4’ camp.

No, Oregon just has really shitty schools because of woke ideology. It’s a rich white state with schools on par with the poor minority heavy ones.

Because people negatively impacted by their opponents’ ideas have primary moral consideration.

People are also moving for lower tax burden, though, and Texas and Florida are often able to attract corporate moves by offering lower regulation.

Phonics is also boring work for elementary school teachers in a way whole word is not.

You know there is a need for at least some sight words in teaching English reading?

You need a new filter bubble.

Children grow up to be members of communities and not to be whatever their parents want. That means they absorb whatever is fashionable among their peers. If that means cutting their breasts off and pretending they want to kiss other girls, they’ll do that. If that means joining the army they’ll do that. If that means committing crimes and bragging about it on SoundCloud they’ll do that.

The shelters kick them out not necessarily for lack of funding, but possibly hoping they’ll get jobs/go to work?

Uh, why do you assume that this is the daily wire doing badly? They’ve been dabbling in entertainment for a while.

This is because anything other than fully taxpayer funded abortion up to birth is a ‘far right abortion ban’.

The natives were generally pretty savage, but the raping and slave taking was mostly just the standard pillaging. In general the right has always known that the natives were not very nice during the 19th century, but playing up the savagery is fairly new. Like the confederacy there seems to have been a gentlemen’s agreement that we could all respect their martial accomplishments even if we’re glad they lost.

The buffalo soldiers museum well might- this is presumably a super-woke museum about black soldiers which alienated people who like woke shit by being about soldiers(who earned their stripes beating up Indians) and alienated people who like museums about soldiers by being woke.

It would be perfectly legal to pay your workers less than illegals are making on a roofing crew. This isn’t 2005. People willing to work for low wages just don’t exist in America. Increasingly, Americans won’t do physically difficult low status work at all.

This is a major problem with post scarcity societies like the modern west. Somebody has to nail shingles and dig ditches and slaughter animals and pick produce. But you have to be willing to let people starve if they don’t. People without scarcity won’t do that. People are perfectly willing to buy strangers a hot dog outside of seven eleven. ‘Literally starve to death’ isn’t a realistic bad outcome in a society where food is a trivial expense to people.
