I have to give a lot of credit to my math text books for making me as woke as I am. Leading edge stuff.

What schools need are history books that know how the Korean War came out, math books that don't have that base six crap in them and a state-of-the-art detention hall where children are held in place with magnets.

Florida will probably introduce a math book that will show how 14,000 votes is more than 21,000 votes. And how people should be angry at the person making 30k a year who doesnt pay any taxes, yet not angry at the billionaire that does not pay any taxes.
And also how there is nothing wrong with 35 going into 15.

The one time I agree with Stone. Since Stone knows who a piece of shit is, since he is a piece of shit.

what is common core?
It was an attempt to standardize education standards and methods on a federal level. In addition, there was a push to spread out funding so all schools could teach with the same materials and resources. This, of course, upset the republicans because it didn't do enough to punish people who so carelessly were born poor and black. So they made a big fuss about "states' rights". Which sounds familiar, but we're not allowed to teach about that anymore.

Naturally, when Repugs got in power, they gutted it and basically made it lowest common denominator core. Dumbing it down to fit the worst school districts instead of pushing it to bring the lower districts up and individual school districts fought to stop using it. They destroyed it then claimed it was a bad idea. Kinda like they do with everything. "Government doesn't work. Elect me so I can ensure it stays that way" kind of thing.

But it didn't have anything to do with the fact that common core history was unkind to certain people. No. Not at all. You get that thought out of your pretty little head.

I'd rather wear boxers than tan my testicles, but that's just me...
