Two birds, one stone.

wow he's actually right about something

2019-08-05 19:07:50 UTC  

Black science man alternates between NPC and based/redpilled with strange frequency

2019-08-05 19:08:09 UTC  

he's no where close to being red-pilled

2019-08-05 19:08:49 UTC  

Broken clock moment, then

I still remember that tweet he made where he almost literally called for a Ministry of Truth

2019-08-05 19:11:00 UTC  

sounds juicy

2019-08-05 19:28:36 UTC  

Neil deGrasse tyson is against the teachers unions. He thinks they're a big hindrance toward better scientific education and literacy.

2019-08-05 19:29:40 UTC  

not sure how I feel about unions, I know they have a purpose, but they've been co-opted and bastardized quite a bit

2019-08-05 19:29:46 UTC  

Agreed.

2019-08-05 19:29:58 UTC  

I feel they've degraded, and tolerate mediocrity.

2019-08-05 19:30:58 UTC  

It also doesn't make sense in schools. You need to pay people with science degrees more if you want them to teach. they can all go and make more in the private sector. the same is not true for all the humanties degrees.

2019-08-05 19:31:25 UTC  

but unions make you pay them all based on seniority.

2019-08-05 19:32:03 UTC  

also (at least where I grew up) they get tenure in 2 years (grade school)

2019-08-05 19:32:31 UTC  

abolish unions, abolish the bored of education, make all education non-mandatory and non-free

2019-08-05 19:33:33 UTC  

Yeah... and just because you have greater seniority does not mean you're more skilled, talented, or experienced. You can twiddle your thumbs for 10 years and blend in with nothingness.

2019-08-05 19:34:04 UTC  

But, yeah, why would I go for a teaching education only to work for a High-School making pennies on the dollars.

2019-08-05 19:34:05 UTC  

Fuck that.

2019-08-05 19:37:34 UTC  

The biggest portion of taxes I pay (where I live) are for the schools. I think the itemized list at the bottom of my taxes said 49% goes to the local school. To me that's money flushed down the toilet, I don't have any kids that go to school nor do I think they use the money they appropriate from the tax payers responsibly.

2019-08-05 19:37:57 UTC  

My kid(s) ain't going to public that's for damn sure

2019-08-05 19:38:14 UTC  

I'm doubly glad I don't have to convince my wife of this

2019-08-05 19:38:54 UTC  

Mandatory schools are dumb. I might be wrong about this, but I think all the top scoring academic countries in asia don't have mandatory school or at least i'm pretty sure high school isn't mandatory

2019-08-05 19:39:38 UTC  

Those taxes sure as shit aren't going to a superior education.

2019-08-05 19:39:51 UTC  

I know people who have homeschooled their kids because local public schools were/are utterly atrocious

2019-08-05 19:40:15 UTC  

I intend to either send them to a private school, or home school them.

2019-08-05 19:40:21 UTC  

I don't trust public in this current day in age.

2019-08-05 19:41:20 UTC  

My boss, homeschooled his kids, but they did it by essentially forming a class with like minded parents. That way they still get the social benefits of a school.

2019-08-05 19:41:42 UTC  

I saw a report not to long ago, I think it was on fox news that out of 6 schools in this one area not one person could pass a basic skills test in math or English.

Baltimore

2019-08-05 19:42:03 UTC  

sounds about right

2019-08-05 19:42:08 UTC  

Yup, sounds right

2019-08-05 19:42:46 UTC  

I remember because they brought it up in the context of the Trump/Cummings thing

2019-08-05 19:43:04 UTC  

pointing out one of the many ways Baltimore is a failure.

2019-08-05 19:44:37 UTC  

Maybe they just need to burn it down again - get some space to blow off steam, you know?

2019-08-05 19:46:19 UTC  

oof

2019-08-05 19:46:47 UTC  

*Yet Trumps at fault*

2019-08-05 19:46:49 UTC
