How about history? It’s far from any of the read, write or math categories, no?
Keep it mostly at the normal stuff we all learned at school. Reading and writing has been in downfall for years here.

In 2023 we had ‘spring jitters’, children books week (where the accent again was on the same stuff), purple Friday and other random events at some schools like when the drag queens got invited.

How do you want to sell to parents that the quality of education is dropping but the frequency of gender lessons in the meantime increasing. Of a 40 week school year you’re talking about ~5/7% of talking about gender while the whole country here knows that the quality of education is dropping? Can’t sell that to parents.

There’s a time and place for it, but not how it has been managed last years. I think that the situation is probably even worse in the US.

What does this post have anything to do with my question?

if he had an account here, he'd be one of the dumbest tuz members. yet he posed as the smartest ever

just realized pavle was donnie

Trump 1.0 was full of these golden moments. My favorite one was when he visited CDC in the height of COVID, claiming that he’s so smart and “he knows this stuff” because his uncle was a genius in MIT.

And then he suggested both injecting bleach and somehow getting sunlight inside the body to kill covid, because those two things disinfected surfaces. :lol2:

I don't know where those figures come from, but I would imagine 5% spent on teaching kids not to be bullies for differences isn't that bad, especially when the average attention span of kids these days is like 50%.

How are Canadians reacting to all this tariff stuff. From everything I’ve seen online- a lot of folks feel betrayed and can never trust the US again.
Online isn’t always too indicative of reality. Vast majority of Canadians despised Trump before this, and still do. Most think the MAGA movement is a weird ass cult. But outside mainstream media outrage pieces and online echo chambers like Reddit, most Canadians aren’t in this “never trust the US again for betraying us” kinda headspace. At least not from my interactions. Most of us can’t believe Trump has become even more of an imbecile in his second term and feel sorry for the majority of Americans.

I live in Alberta and it's been a mixed bag. NGL I've been entertained. It rekindled or fuelled Albertan separatist movement, seeing people being super pro Danielle Smith or seething at her betraying Canada by working with Trump and them. Fun times.

Don’t worry, Trump’s bringing peace one country at a time. He’s already done more than sleepy joe and word salad queen kamala. They can no longer launder money with the Ukraine conflict.

USAID funded 6,200 REGIME FRIENDLY journalists all over the world including 90% of the reporting out of Ukraine. Imagine how much the lens through which Americans perceive the world will transform simply by starving the propaganda machine propped up by our own taxpayer dollars.
