Misogynistic, sexist and a bit rapey': Calls for iconic movie Grease to be banned
"Social media users are calling to ban the iconic 1970s hit film 'Grease', condemning it for being "sexist", "homophobic", and "s-ut-shaming".

"s-ut"? We can't say "slut" any longer. Leaving out the "l" makes it ok.
How to be good like functionaries of the State. Like in 1984, it's pure propaganda and politicization of education. It's underlying cause is the spread of Critical Pedagogy by radical Leftist professors in colleges of education across the US.
ALL education is inherently political A social and educational vision of justice and equality should be the foundation for all education Race, class, gender, sexuality, religion, and physical ability are important domains of oppression The purpose of education is the alleviation of oppression and human suffering Schools must not hurt students–good schools don’t blame students for their failures Good schools don’t judge the beliefs students have about their life’s experiences Part of the role of any educator involves becoming a researcher into social oppression Education must promote emancipatory change
https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3179855/postsSixteen of the top educational schools in America are heavily influenced by Critical Pedagogy and are shaping the future leaders of our educational system. This belief system is now spreading out of the colleges into our K-12 systems and being promulgated by radical teachers as its ‘agents of change’. It’s a well-organized, widespread movement, firmly entrenched in many Universities and its advocates are actively seeking to spread it worldwide.
Thus, most recently in Minnesota the agenda of radical teacher education came to light; The University of Minnesota redesigns teachers. Here is what the Univ. of Minnesota’s new teacher certification program requires:
Students are required to adopt “race, culture, class and gender” identity politics in order to be recommended for a teaching license.
Students must accept that teachers’ lack of “cultural competence” is a major reason for many minority students performing poorly in Minnesota schools.
All prospective teachers have to meet 14 “outcomes”, as well as “assessment” methods to assure they had achieved the outcomes. The first outcome is typical: “Future teachers will be able to discuss their own histories and current thinking drawing on notions of white privilege, hegemonic masculinity, hetero-normativity, and internalized oppression.” [Think carefully upon that terminology, it's quite revealing]
Other highlights deserve attention:
“Future teachers accept that they are privileged or marginalized depending on context.”
“Future teachers will recognize & demonstrate understanding of white privilege.”
“Future teachers are able to explain how institutional racism works in schools”
That was written eleven years ago. It's only gotten worse. Public schools are increasingly not educating students. Instead, they are politicizing them and teaching them nonsense and propaganda. The objective is to produce radical Leftists who are 'true believers' not educated and well rounded students. It is a political version of the Idiocracy.

What would be even remotely acceptable about any type presentation with that subject matter? To anyone?
It is a two week program, suggested an hour a day, to accompany the regular curriculum, and the examples you, actually Tucker, propagandized aren’t spelled out specifically in the recommended activities (https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...C-n794l6EGzpuH)
And public schools aren’t in the toilet, in fact, the top schools in the country are largely public (https://www.usnews.com/info/blogs/pr...hools-rankings)
Public schools suffer because mich of the financing is predicated on property taxes. I bet even rightys can figure out who gets better schools and opportunities.
The US spends more than most developed nations on public education, Nerdberg, and the results have not improved despite lavish funding.
Public schools don't teach critical thinking skills because it's not in the curriculum, and most of the teachers don't know how themselves anyway, IMO.
