Undeniable proof we are in fact living in a Clown World.

I?m going to sell all the posts I?ve made on this forum for $1,000 each. Get them now before they are all sold!

What 4th Amendment?

Headline should read: ?FBI Pulls Largest Bank Heist In World History.?

It was an $85 million dollar confiscation.

this just proves how crazy those conspiracy theorist who accuse the FBI of being involved in staging the 3 hour insurrection really are.

do we get to pick the posts we want and do they come with an NFT for authentication?

I may have to convert them into an acceptable format first?

this is above my pay grade, but from what little I know, I don't think you have to change the format, in fact I think that would be a bad move - you want to sell the original. You can just create an NFT which as I understand it, is a blockchain authentication of digital data (in this case your posts). This ensures the owner has the digital original and not just a digital copy. People are using them to convince morons to buy their digital art at exorbitant prices because they're getting the "original" 1s and 0s. I know you're only charging a G per (hardly exorbitant), but buyers may want the token when they try to sell your works in the secondary digital market.

There are some articles out about how police confiscations (and in some cases outright cash grabs) dwarfed actual theft last year, or over the past couple years.

And by dollar value, the biggest crime in the US is wage theft, and it goes largely unpunished. Maybe the only times it's not allowed scott-free is when the employees sue on their own behalf. You can't swing a proverbial dead cat on the internet without hitting articles about it, and yet we still claim we have a "Criminal justice" system, man!

hmmm, sounds like you clearly have some other issue going on here and some kind of axe to grind. I must not be swinging dead cats in the right place because I don't recall coming across any articles about wage theft.

4,200 teachers (and counting) sign pledge to continue teaching based on Critical Race Theory in schools even if state law bans it. Is this more evidence that CRT isn't really being taught in schools?

the pledge doesn't say what you claim it says.

this is, like the transgender athletes in sports thing, another example of made up bullshit the Right is using to rile up their retarded rank and file.

I haven't had a chance to read the actual legislation yet, but I'm guessing it goes further than banning "critical race theory" and bans actual history.

The Texas Tribune interviewed actual teachers about this:

Is critical race theory being taught in K-12 classrooms?

Experts and teachers put it plainly.

?Nobody in K-12 is teaching critical race theory,? Andrew Robinson, an 8th grade U.S. history teacher at Uplift Luna Preparatory in Dallas, said. ?If I tried to walk in and teach critical race theory, my kids would just have a blank stare on their face.?

?Critical race theory is not being taught in schools,? Martinez said.

Keffrelyn Brown, a professor of cultural studies in education at UT-Austin and a teacher-educator, agreed.

?A vast majority of teachers in K-12 schools don't know critical race theory,? she said. ?They are not coming into the classroom and saying, ?I'm going to teach critical race theory.??

HoSang pointed out that to begin with, critical race theory is not ?a body of content that can be taught.?
Given that, Abbott?s calls to ?abolish critical race theory in Texas? make no sense, those who study it said. ?I don't think you can ?abolish? a theory,? Brown said.
​

I guess it just comes down to whether you want to believe Republican politicians and Alex Jones types in the media, or actual teachers. ...

LOL:

The Zinn Education Project, named after the anti-American and factually challenged historian Howard Zinn
​

He was not factually challenged. They just don't like the facts he presented.

Reading and writing history is anti-American now...

 

[Michchamp]

heh.
just saw this.

 

[Spartanmack]

I think the original article was about how CRT spread to MC's brain, then they realized...

it would be too outrageous even for a satire site.

LOLOLOLOL, ok. Revising or re-writing American history may be anti-American but that's not why, or at least not the only reason he's earned that label. Regardless of whether or not he's anti-American, the simple fact is Zin's history is ahistorical - it's factually challenged. That's not really in dispute from any credible historian, unless you think people like Ibram X Kendi and the folks behind the 1619 project and others who deny facts are credible historians (not doubt you do).

 

[Spartanmack]

So which is it Joe?

Is "our Democracy under unprecedented assault" and was the 3 hour mostly peaceful insurrection "the worst assault on our democracy since the civil war"

or

Do "people who defend the right to bear arms need f-15s and nuclear weapons to be able to take on the US Government."

Which is it? It can't be both...

Okay.

So if it isn?t being taught anyways who cares if it?s prohibited?

 

[Michchamp]

I am not sure if they care because the law (i.e. the ban) as written is overbroad,
or they're just trying to calm the retards freaking out at school board meetings over a made up problem. Or maybe both.

 

[Spartanmack]

This is completely wrong and the closest you got to being accurate in this entire post. I didn't claim the pledge said anything other than exactly what the pledge says - it's quoted in the piece I linked. So you're either stupid, a liar or both.

LOL, "we teach all the aspects of CRT but we don't call it CRT theory so none of us is teaching critical race theory. And we signed a pledge to continue teaching all the aspects of CRT, even if our state legislatures outlaw it." This is just a bunch of hand waving, smoke and mirrors garbage to get useful idiots to defend them. This is no different than all the educators saying garbage like 'we don't indoctrinate students, we don't bring our politics into the classroom, students, especially high school students don't care about politics and wouldn't listen to us even if we did that, so on and so forth.' And rubes like you fall for it or more accurately, go along with it.

Did you ever wonder if none of them were teaching it, why did 4,200 and counting sign a pledge to continue to teach this ahistorical nonsense?

I guess it just comes down to whether you want to believe Republican politicians and Alex Jones types in the media, or actual teachers. ...

Please, show me one link I posted from a Republican politician or Alex Jones. Virtually all of the links I posted to were either videos of actual parents and actual students reacting to and testifying at school board meetings about the garbage being taught or articles written about those meetings quoting the parents and students. So again, you're full of shit - what it comes down to is believing the students who are being taught this and their parents whose taxes pay for it or the agenda driven leftist zealots that dominate our schools.

Which leads us back to ?who cares??

If high school kids in Texas hear about critical race theory and want to find out more about it, let them get a commission to West Point and find out about it there.

Even the ninnies on The View acknowledge it?s curriculum substantially beyond primary/secondary education level.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LqDjnkXMPmw

Let them red neck kids in Texas have something to strive toward.

okay
