Fabricating, Conservatively

THE STATE I LIVE IN will have a new governor soon, one that I will despise, because I already do, as much as I despised and still despise the likes of George Wallace and Orville Faubus, for example. This one, like most Republicans, blames Joe Biden for inflation, when in fact anyone with rudimentary intelligence understands that the current inflation is a global phenomenon, was caused by the pandemic and the attendant economic slowdown in production, and could not possibly have been caused by any single person, including the president of the United States. Alas, parr for the conservative course. Also, tax reductions all around! Putting more money back in your pocket, highways, bridges, pensions, publc employeees salaries be damned, you're on your own. And here's the real kicker, the real laugher in a laughable, ludicrous agenda, standard right wing stuff. Education reform! "When elected, I will educate your child, not indoctrinate him and her with the radical left agenda"! Precisely what is meant by "the radical far left wing education agenda"? Well, for starters, teaching students that science works, that climate change is real, that it is caused by human activity, and must be dealt with immmediately, with drastic measures, to increase the chances of our descendant's survival. According to the conservative education agenda, climate change is no big deal, is not caused by humans, and even though its a liberal hoax, it doesn't matter anyway, since the Lord Jesus Christ will soon return to the Earth, and rapture the saved into heaven. In other words, lunacy, unadulterated. The far left agenda is to encourage all students to tolerate and accept everyone no matter what the sexual orientation or gender self identification. In the right wing education agenda, students are not to be exposed to gay "culture", or the word "gay" even mentioned. The left wingers teach students that the United States has always been a racist country, and still is, but that we have made progress towards eliminating racism, and must continue the work, and complete it. Conservatives consider this approach "radical", call it "critical race theory", for some reason, and try to banish it, like they try to banish gay people, from the academic curriculum. Precisely whom, to bluntly ask, is telling the truth, and which side, liberal or conservative, is indoctrinating America's kids with an extreme political agenda? Do you really think it is a good idea to indoctrinate the nation's children with a kooky, radical far right agenda, or to merely teach tjhe truth, about climate change, racism, and sexual orientation, for example, which, for some reason, has a liberal slant to it?
