    God I wish I lived in a country that wasn’t so filled with idiots.

    Sounds like you agree with the adults, then. That’s exactly the sentiment that’s causing this issue - no matter which side you fall on, there are conservatives who believe the education is too “woke”, and liberals that believe the education is too watered down by moneyed and religious interests. Believing the country is filled with idiots is precisely why adults in general express dissatisfaction with education.

      No. I don’t agree with the adults. I agree with the parents. It’s not the school’s fault that these people are idiots. It’s their upbringing. School won’t help you if you already think you know all the answers.

        Dawg I am literally left as fuck - I wasn’t saying it was both sides at all. I’m saying each side individually has their own reasons for answering the question the way they did. Do you think conservatives make up more than 60% of the population?

        It would be like asking “Do you think the government provides the right amount of welfare?”

        Most people would say “no” because you’d have Republicans saying Gov provides too much welfare, and Democrats saying Gov doesn’t provide enough welfare.

        Dropping a blanket statement like “This country is filled with idiots” is SIGNIFICANTLY more “both sides” than my point was.
