Red states strike deals to show controversial conservative videos in schools | Educational material from PragerU is now offered to public schools in six states
Educational material from PragerU is now offered to public schools in six states. Opponents call it indoctrination and inaccurate.
Per the article:
Critics say PragerU lessons distort history and facts to serve a conservative worldview. Some scientists have said PragerU videos lack context and downplay climate change as climate alarmism, while the Council on American-Islamic Relations alleges some videos are anti-Muslim. Other complaints center on the nonprofit’s portrayal of slavery.
PragerU is literally paid by billionaires to push their far-right science denial
I had a right leaning family member suggest PragerU content for my kid. I said "the only way this will happen is if Jesus Christ himself comes down from heaven and logs me in". I no longer get suggestions on content, bummer.
That's not right "leaning". That's diving headfirst. I miss when conservatives were basically Ron from Parks and Rec instead of this shitfuckery. Makes them seem almost good guys.
You know what, you're 100% correct. I pulled up on the same person listening to something that said "if they call you racist for saying it they're not well educated enough" . So I'm full supportive of that not being leaning.
"Educational material from PragerU" is an oxymoron.
It's a disinformation factory created to replace and undo education with idiocy disguised as authorative information with varying degrees of success.
Very soon red states will start showing Nazi videos as inspirational material. There’s no low these people will go to just to cling on to power.
Shit man, aren't we still forcing kids to recite the pledge of allegiance?
I got a lot of shit for saying "if you make us it's meaningless" as a kid.
But red states educations are about unquestionably following orders, they don't want any free thought getting in he way of that.
When you step back and look at that whole process, it's dystopian as fuck.
WW2, Teach the controversy.
🤢
Here is an article with some good examples of the racist shit PragerU slops around like an incontinent hippo.
I watched Dear Infidels and really most of the criticisms could also apply to Christian Nationalists.
