Good thought!!

Apparently, the textbook contents are "proprietary," so I guess we'll know what the problem was should the publishers give consent to make the material public. That said, there is a movement to insert political stuff into math curricula. Also another one to adjust grading standards to be open-ended. I assumed these movements were small, but I wouldn't put it past Florida to be overzealous in trying to spot manifestations of it.

What kind of politics do they want to insert into math textbooks? Also, critical race theory has nothing to do with math, nor schools below the university level. Critical race theory is only taught in high level university classes. What is wrong with Republicans? Why do conservatives have to lie so obviously to attract voters?

@@kristypenner2753 An example one educator proposed and implemented was having students count the number of liquor stores in different neighborhoods. (She gave a TED talk about it if you want to look it up.) DeSantis' spokesperson also cited a Missouri example where a teacher assigned a bunch of word problems about Maya Angelou. I assumed this was too small to show up in textbooks yet, but there *is* a movement to use math class as an excuse to talk about a million different things other than math. There's also a movement to make grading more open-ended so that teachers can effectively pick and choose whom they pass. (I had guidelines for this approach linked to me by someone who advocated it.) I'm aware of CRT as a legal subject, thank you. I've probably known that for years before you did, as the word only recently hit the mainstream. Thoroughly explaining why this is irrelevant hair splitting would take a minute, but even crt advocates will define it as something other than a legal subject. Part of the answer, however, is that critical theory, broadly, isn't a legal subject at all. A "critical theory" is defined as any theory intended to delegitimize the established order. This could be anything and could apply anywhere. It's mostly just happenstance that crt found its home in law, as its principles partially predate its formal founding at Harvard Law (crt advocates will tell you this under certain conditions). Now, it is a different question whether the examples I gave are examples of this broader understanding. I think the word is overused by conservatives, but there are concrete things out there that warrant attention regardless of what you call them.

@@somexp12" having students count the number of liquor stores in different neighborhoods" seems like practical use of math in class. I look at how many pubs and betting shops there are in any area to know its economy. That is not a racial perspective, that is in poor white areas of the UK.

@Abraham Donaldson I appreciate your politeness, thanks a lot. 😉

That's because Germany went through the era where they were the "bad people", waging a world war almost by themselves (and almost winning too); in the process, Germans learned humility which allowed them to see what went wrong and take steps to prevent it. US hasn't gotten to that part yet. In fact, the US have been sheltered from having to suffer consequences of waging wars (9/11 being the only "consequence" if you will), especially not a war thought on its own turf. Even when losing a war (Vietnam, Afghanistan), the reality didn't really settle in for those not actively fighting there and so, the ego remained. The ego is sustained through the usual "greatest country on Earth" slogans, frantic flag waving and so on. The last chance for anything of significance to happen, in my opinion, was punishing the insurrection participants and, even more importantly, their leaders. But 1.25 years later, still almost nothing: just a few guys in jail (literally), while the main instigators (re: politicians) are not only walking around freely, but most still in positions of power. So, my friend, you are absolutely right to have bad feeling (just look at how many politicians are calling out nuclear strikes in Russia, as if fallout will be restricted there). Country is ran mostly on "feeling" instead of facts. I'm pretty scared myself, by proxy (as a Canadian, because the US winds of thought, politics and economic actions). Sometimes, someone still asks why my wife and why don't want kids; well, let's say that arguments against keep pilling up every year.

Your opinion is valuable and noted --------Everyone should talk about Hitler, the S-S and what they represented .!

A.R., In my opinion too. I have a bad feeling when I hear American politicians rape and distort European's gruesome 20th century. Simply because their "acadamic" education sucks royally. They leave their schools knowing nothing. It's even worse: they are not interested- the universe outside planet America is of no relevance to them. Surprisingly many politicans appear to know very little about America's history.... Cocooning cavemen. "But we have seen the pyramids! And Chernobyl! All in one week! And we also visited... which country was it, honey?" "A much too hot island somewhere in the American Ocean. They didn't even have a Disney theme park."

While knowing the truth about history is important, history is largely about people who have already died. Which is relevant since we have a ban in germany on commemorating politicians while they are still alive as well as a ban on advertising in schools. The most recent politician I learned about in school was JFK, noone currently serving or campaigning would ever make it into a schoolbook over here.

Same here. Noone outside US takes him seriously anyway (I hope 😝)

But you watch Colbert? And if you ever see Tucker talk outside of show, he's a very polite and fair individual. Disclaimer: I don't watch his show, but don't think you should listen to Colbert and his radical war on the west talking points and take those serious either. He's a rage hustler like the rest of them. Just wants the views.

Do u like soyboys who can't get it up? The war against men is a real crisis.

Exactly. That's why men are advised to wear boxers instead of tightie whities when trying to elevate there supermarket count for procreation. This leads me to believe Tucker owns stock in the stupid tanning lights that would otherwise have a warning about skin cancer.

So.......what I hear you saying is men need to build their 'Man Be More Manly' compounds in the polar regions.

It would. And cause more cases of testicular cancer.

skin cancer on my shoulder? fine, cut it off. skin cancer on my man bits? hell noes. i do believe all skin should get some sunlight, but keep the tanning on the stick to a minimum.

You actually just described the Democrat party and I'm an independent and call out either side but the last is definitely follow the money. Pushing vacs Even for little children that don't need it, the left loves Big pharma, shutting down businesses all over the US and wanting to keep them closed. 2019 no wars going on, interest rates low prices for everything very reasonable some of the lowest unemployment rates for every race that had been seen in decades. So what was the last wanting what we've got now wars going on all of the world tons of money being sent to other countries, insanely high cost of everything, high interest rates, left loved promoting BLM yet the whole movement did nothing but pad the pockets of a handful of people while doing nothing for black communities, logical people in other countries have no respect for our leadership here we're in a flipping clown show like a Twilight zone and that's the kind of thing that people who watch Colbert seem to love cuz he does 🙄🤦

I don't know what's wrong exactly with Tucker, as it seems to vary from moment to moment, but that's definitely one possibility. It's a big problem he can't reconcile, whatever it is. 🤔

He has always acted like he felt inadequate in the masculinity department. Apparently his wife has had a lot of complaints. I hardly see how a homoerotic documentary is going to help him out with his wife so much as his pool boy.

Be that as it may, the reduction of testosterone levels in males is a fact and it is likely linked to micro plastics in our food. It is a big problem for the future of mankind.

I want to fight the leader of the Proud Boys in a televised MMA match. I'm not kidding.

@Robin Justice planet is a piece of rock. Stop anthropomorphizing the planet. There are other ways to address the environmental issues. Not attending to male problems, while trendy, it's not always the answer.

@@grammarofficerkrupke4398 In the studies I looked up, lower testosterone levels in the US, non-age related, were linked with obesity, diabetes, other chronic illnesses, and lack of vitamin D. These studies were conducted before 2004, and there hasn't been much research since. It seems that the rate of testosterone serum decline of 1% - 2% per generation , although a significant issue for the future in terms of fertility, isn't as urgently concerning as other more immediate risks facing humanity. That Gen Z are reaching puberty in the new normal range of 8yrs - 14yrs is concerning. I am also concerned by the number of girls put on The Pill , for years, by doctors, and the impact that will have on their long term physical and mental health. It has become standard practice to manage menstrual symptoms, which many now have.
