The essential argument of [deBoer's] book is that overwhelming empirical evidence shows that students sort themselves into academic ability bands in the performance spectrum early in life, with remarkable consistency
Downvote me now. 31 years, and my experience agrees with this.
"My entire existence is promulgating bourgeois false consciousness that obscures historical materialism of class war in favor of idealist utopian dogshit" tell me again how PMC are working class comrades who are actually fighting to collectively raise the consciousness of the working class lol, I don't see it
Does this mean I give up on students? Not in the least. But
"I am not a nazi, but,"
I don't believe that in high school I can dramatically change a student. Brain research supports this, as far as I know...
"brain research" lets do some research on these soul cancer Liz Warren radlibs
We cannot solve the problems because we are the tools used to educate, not the tools used to fix the education system. Were we - the educators - given access to that sort of control and power, the education system would look (and feel) wildly different...and quite possibly more successful.
"we need a dictatorship of the PMC Karens" yet again, no sign of working class struggle
There's a provocatively titled book by George Mason University family and education economist Bryan Caplan that addresses some of these things called The Case Against Education
QUOTING THE MOST SATANIC NEOLIBERAL EVER lol. This indoctrination with the most pure radlib ideology is why everyone hates teachers and wants them to be [REDACTED]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bryan_Caplan
Caplan's anarcho-capitalist views were discussed by Brian Doherty in his book Radicals for Capitalism and in Reason magazine. Caplan has argued that anarcho-capitalists have a better claim on the history of anarchist thought than "mainstream anarchists", or "left-anarchists",
such a weird coincidence how the /r/stupidpol redditors who idolize Freddie deBoer agree with the DSA comrade Liz Warren that "free markets are true liberation, not the Stalinist authoritarian state', which we must work with fascists to smash as we did in Ukraine/Syria/etc. You should google Bookchin, his interview with Reason mag is sooo true about the authoritarian evils of Cuba! True Marxism is free markets for individual consumers, I am the 99% and I vote for humanity!" :dsa:
When presented with this, people in education tend to plug their ears and start chanting various well meaning mantras,
my reaction when faced with satanic bourgeois nazi redditor ideology is: :brace-cowboy:
The thing is, these findings are kind of liberating. If we want to improve educational outcomes in the US it seems that the best place to spend money is not in the schools, but rather just to make the welfare checks bigger.
radlibs don't understand capitalism or what austerity is, these pretentious "objective, science backed realists" are in fact the most idealist and utopian dreamers you'll ever see
of course these PMC class traitors downvoted the only post to mention eugenics:
The essay is quite long so I didn’t read the whole thing, but in what I saw there are two things I disagree with. First, and majorly, there is not a generic component to academic success. That gets into eugenics, a widely discredited and racist science.
stay woke about the PMC's entire function being eugenics management of their (sex) slaves. That's why the radlib professor Chomsky is an Epstein guy, who of course, was a high school teacher turned eugenicist like deBoer :epstein:
