Republicans support grooming kids to be christian white nationalists. So much for separation of church and state.

It’s not discrimination if they’re uniquely unqualified due to their sub-standard education.

Yeah, those kids will suddenly end up completely unprepared for college. But then again, that makes for great future Republican voters.

For the intelligent, critical thinking ones sure. Of course the rest of their education is designed to prevent that whenever possible.

I like to think of myself as reasonably intelligent and self-aware, but it took me about 15 years after moving out of my childhood home to fully break free of the indoctrination I’d received.
