    All part of the design. They are dumping department of education for the same reason. They want education to be only for the privileged, and only teaching what they want taught.

    We aren’t there yet, but if you look at the steps they’ve taken it’s quite obvious what their plans are. If it’s not, it’s all spelled out in project 2025.

    Hurting children and schools had always been an openly stated goal of conservatives. How hard they fight public education from day 1? Hard. How often do they propose legislation to hurt teachers, reduce the quality of teaching, and force children into the workforce ill educated and early? Often.

    Empty classrooms for the poor (the rich just do whatever anyway) IS the goal since an ill educated population is a controllable one. Fascists always come to destroy the schools.

    My wife is a teacher at a school with a high immigrant/refugee population. There’s legit families here legally being wrangled up by ICE. Mom or Dad being ghosted with students having to be unenrolled and moved to a different family member across the country.

      Working in a majority minority school is really depressing atm. Makes me feel so bitter towards people. These babies are just learning.

    They are shutting down the department of education so I’d say this is pretty clearly a policy decision to create a permanent underclass with zero education or human rights

    When you criminalize ethnic group, then crime becomes the only option.

    Can’t legally go to school or work then what’s left? Work off the books. Child labor. Exploitation.

      It’s not a coincidence many GOP-governed states are looking to reduce the age of employed minors, particularly in industries normally deemed to dangerous for them.

    I don’t know if it’s unintended, because many racist parents will say there are too many minorities in schools. This is what they prefer over having less white kids.
