Everyone knows Lincoln freed the slaves, then some industrial revolution stuff happened, followed by the great depression, world war 2, and finally MLK giving one hell of a speech. And everything has been fine ever since.
One of the great problems with having the government in charge of education is that you run the risk of electing a government that doesn’t give two shits about education. 
I’m not saying there’s a better system. It’s just very obvious that this is the fatal flaw of this one. >

I wonder how Florida high school students are supposed to earn their way into quality universities without the AP courses that every other applicant will have. >

They aren’t, that’s a feature. >

This is an air horn of a dog whistle >

Right? My dog heard it clear up here in Ohio. >

The Republican Party fears knowledge, especially about race and history, the way that the Wicked Witch of the West feared water . . . and for the same reasons. >

Just call the class AP Confederate History Studies

white people can do no wrong history class? >

Well since DeSantis lacks education it’s hard to trust his opinions >

That's the problem. Desantis isn't poorly educated. He has an Ivy League education and clerked for the Supreme Court. He misrepresents that education because the rubes that vote for him consider it a net negative. He knows the damage his policies do, he just doesn't care; so long as he can be president, he's fine with burning the house down. >

And I bet there’s a black conservative out there agreeing with Ron while eating at the Cheesecake Factory >

Nothing racist here… >

They are not even trying to veil the racism any more… >

Just another day on the Grand Ole Plantation. >

As a white person: Fuck you, DeSantis and the fascist Florida GQP, you bigoted wastes of human flesh. >

Can we please have a democratic candidate who faces this asshole who straight up just says “you’re a racist fuck and deserve no power, not even on the local school board”, and then watch him quiver. Watch him in debates. No one challenges him. When they do, he wilts. Fuck DeSantis. >

I can’t wait for this clown to run for President. >

Anything above remedial studies is over education in Florida. Keep them ignorant so they’re easily manipulated. >

To anyone else who is incensed by this: We are going to have to fight these people eventually. They are not going to back down with this bullshit. >

If it’s for highschool that’s messed up that’s the time to learn all of this if it’s a college I’d have to agree what value does that have from an employable standpoint. >


what value does that have from an employable standpoint.

That's job training, not education. >

Education is in grades k-12 vocational school and colleges are for job training as I said if it’s a highschool course they are 100% wrong >

You're wrong. >

When colleges student loans get returned and wiped out because the education is unemployable as have happened with 2-3 colleges now I’d say not. Can’t have it both ways >

Do you have any links to these “colleges”?  I bet they were actually vo-tech schools, trade schools, or “technical institutes” who lied about their post-graduation job placement rates, which is fraud. 
If an engineering student wants to take medieval French literature as one of their electives, what’s the harm? >

Those are instances of fraud. From the Forbes article:
“These misrepresentations typically take the form of untruthful representations of the school's selectivity in admitting students, its rankings... the job placement and earnings outcomes of its prior graduates, or the likelihood that its credits will be accepted by another school.”
None of that has anything to do with whether the school’s specific course offerings provide adequate job training - it has to do with the schools explicitly lying to the students about rankings, job placement, etc. 
No one is getting their tuition refunded simply because they can’t find a job with their birdcage welding degree. >

Those degrees were valid degrees alot of them were just useless >

Again, the schools got in trouble for explicitly lying to their students, not because of the degrees’ “value” or lack thereof. 
Did you go to college?  Did you not take a single course outside of your major that had nothing to do with the job you hoped to get after graduation?  If a college wants to offer a course in African American culture, who’s to say they shouldn’t?  Sounds like it might be an interesting history or sociology elective. >

That’s a bingo. If you fear this sort of course it says a lot more about you as a person than anything. America did genocide and slavery and Jim Crow and many other terrible things. It’s just what happened. >
