The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character—that is the goal of true education. - Martin Luther King, Jr.
Bullshit
is systemic
at a microbiological level
across all spectra
and I blame
sparing
the rod
and spoiling
the child.
But it could be
cable television
or golden trophies
for everybody.
Intergalactic porn.
Maybe video games
on cellphones,
free range
albino peacocks,
perhaps
global warming.
But
other than that,
the whole deal
confuses
me.
If
books are dangerous
and history is scary,
must we embrace
ignorance?
You know,
just to be safe.
“In Florida, we are taking a stand against the state-sanctioned racism that is critical race theory. We won’t allow Florida tax dollars to be spent teaching kids to hate our country or to hate each other. We also have a responsibility to ensure that parents have the means to vindicate their rights when it comes to enforcing state standards. Finally, we must protect Florida workers against the hostile work environment that is created when large corporations force their employees to endure CRT-inspired ‘training’ and indoctrination.”
