Florida rejects large percentage of math school books

[Matt Dillon]

In the fascist world that the alt right wants to create, government officials do not need to answer to the American people.

The government IS answering to the people. The people do not want LGBTQ, CRT, or SEL stuff in their kids' math textbooks, k? Or any textbooks for that matter because it's all indoctrination bullshit.

Commie publishers and Democrats and "philanthropists" do, but not the people who actually pay for that stuff.

I doubt all Democrats want that crap in there, too. Most people with common sense don't. Obama pushed hard for it, though.

No, it is not. It is refusing to tell anyone what it is banning. It could easily, but instead is only making vague, hateful accusations.

Losing money in the pursuit of UTOPIA is the highest honor available in WOKE.

A good definition of "woke" is being so afraid of an idea that you make it illegal.

 

[Matt Dillon]

I guess you don't understand why.

So I'll explain it to you:

If they did publish a list like that it would open up potential boycotts of the publishers nationwide and lawsuits both ways as well, instead of giving the publisher a chance to revise their material.

Abstract thinking bro, you should try it sometime.

By the way, they made very specific where the textbooks did not meet the criteria for the new B.E.S.T. standards.

FL is leading the way for public education nationwide in the right direction.

The State of Florida has historically scored higher than most other states in the country as far as schools go.

 

[Matt Dillon]

And apparently not the 1 S: spelling.

Without anything beyond arithmetic, no STEM is possible. That is a simple fact.

That's covered in ""Ritin'"

Idk, but back in my day, Algebra started in 7th grade.

In the past, Florida did things right. Now, they are collapsing. You must be so proud.

Removing the leftist indoctrination from schools is not "collapsing".

It's getting rid of unnecessary bullshit to focus on what really matters, ok?

Calculus matters. Algebra matters. Florida is collapsing. Watching education collapse takes a few years, but it is happening. It is going to be another major drain on America.

There was calculus before, and there will be calculus after common core/CRT/SEL.

There was none of that bullshit when I was in school. There was Calculus.

Teachers weren't allowed to disclose their sexuality upon penalty of termination. (Until college)

K-12, grounds for termination. No indoctrination textbooks.

 

[Walt]

It is being removed from the curriculum. Common Core pushed algebra and calculus, but now DeSantis is pushing back.

We are going around in circles. You believe DeSantis is a saint like man, who is secretly doing great things, but for some reason wants to keep the details from the public. I believe DeSantis is one of the slimiest politicians there is, and the reason he is hiding things will never be good. Given that he is hiding all the evidence, neither of us will be able to prove anything based on the evidence.

Teachers would be fired for getting heterosexually married? Where was this school?

We're done here. I already explained this, you're just stuck on stupid.

 

[ExpressLane]

That's such a right-wing talking point.

Kids are smart. They can make up their own minds about stuff. Hiding ideas & books from them is just fear.

Parents are smarter and they can decide what they want their kids taught. Apparently they want math not woke taught in math class. Who knew

I doubt you could tell a kid the plain meaning of "woke"; probably couldn't explain it to yourself except by couching it in pejorative terms. The notion that "parents are smarter" is another dumb idea. There's nothing in being a parent that shows you're smart but could be something in it that reflects on your stupidity.

Woke is teaching CRT or genderism in math class.

DeSantis sure loves cancel culture

He needs ignorant citizens if he plans to stay in politics

Yea. Red state parents are forced to give birth to unwanted babies.

Said parents are dumb enough to keep voting Republican.

Which is why they have to ban books. Can't let the children grow up being smarter than their sires/dams.

 

[Monad Portal]

Just because you can't comprehend it, shit-kicker.

no. it's retardation and lies, lies and retardation.

None of that is true. It appears the situation is more complex than you are capable of comprehending.

Maybe, but that's a simplified example of "woke" in practice not a definition. It's also an example spawned in a thread that has so far provided zero examples of such teaching being advocated or practiced.

Dumbass! If they released all the publishers whose crap they had to reject, that could hurt the publishers badly because they'd be boycotted almost nationwide, and it would open up a fuckton of lawsuit action on both sides.

You want the proof? Find out the textbooks they rejected and order them. Owait, you can't do that because what I just said is true.

Also it gives the publisher a chance to revise their books to meet the criteria.
