    And just like that, he’s resigned to become CEO of the Teacher Freedom Alliance nonprofit. Good riddance, but now he can do damage in other ways. Great.

    At the same time they’re accusing universities of indoctrination, Republicans are openly implementing government indoctrination in public schools.

    Everything is projection with Maga pedos.

      They accuse the other side of doing it so that when they do it their supporters are ok with it. They say

      “Well, the Democrats were doing it so why shouldn’t our side” when the Democrats never did shit

      I thought he had porn on in the background. Maybe it was both.

      Clearly there was no consequences.

        It was actually a Jackie Chan movie. No joke.

          As despicable a person I may find him, the truth is more important. I do appreciate the clarification

      I hate this guy, but supposedly it’s not porn just a movie with tits.

      Still weird, but we must paint them accurately.

        I once worked with a manager that got caught watching GoT while at work on the office computer and a 16 years old cashier walked in on one of the sex scenes. He was canned quickly. Nowadays he probably would have been promoted.

      Oh if you think that story is wild the resolution is even crazier. After the panick following seeing boobs appear on the TV at the school board meeting and flinging wild accusations all the way up and down the chain of command it turns out what had happened was this Samsung smart TV was connected to the Internet, and when powered on automatically started playing one of the free movie channels operated by Samsung, and the movie it happened to play was the Jackie Chan movie The Protector (1985) which the US release contains at least one scene with nudity in it

      So basically a lack of technical competence to spot that the TV was turned on and started auto playing a movie combined with a lack of media literacy to recognize an obvious movie scene plus a puritanical fear of pornography created a national scandal over what amounted to someone didn’t change the TV channel and some boobs appeared for a moment on the meeting room TV during a private meeting exclusively attended by adults. Seriously nobody could just go “hold on can we turn that off, okay now continue…” like professionals?

    Charlie Kirk is the modern Horst Wessel; Ryan Walters is the modern Joseph Goebbels.

    …why is it only ever the shitty parts of history that repeat themselves?

    No education about the actual students getting killed in actual schools though, that would just be woke left-wing opportunistic propaganda.

    Hey, the Hitler Youth chapters came earlier than I thought!

    As a reminder, we hanged people like Charlie Kirk at Nuremberg for incitement to genocide and crimes against humanity.

    Kids will be able to read about one person getting shot at a college while hiding under their desks during the next mass shooting at their high school.
