    Maybe you haven’t noticed the aggressive dismantling of what we have of an education system recently. It’s actively being made radioactively worse.

      The decline started in COVID, no recent changes will have any value when kids learn more from tiktok myths and memes.

        No, the decline started decades before COVID… Republicans, as an institution, have been destroying education in the US going back at least to Reagan. This has been a much longer play with a lot of dedication on the GOP side. As was stacking the courts with as many Federalist Society judges as possible. And creating obstacles to allowing people to exercise their Constitutional right and public duty to vote.

        I just looked up the Heritage Foundation. They started in 1973. That’s when the Christian Right started getting really involved in things, and Project 2025 is their dream project.
