This smells like a way for Republicans to drive people to home schooling and then cut public school funding.

glimse,

Remember when a certain demographic was saying that every school shooting was an inside job by the left to push gun control? The question I always had was…who actually stands to gain from implying public education is dangerous?

That’s right: private schools. And who was the secretary of education at the time these conspiracies were getting pushed? That’s right, Betsy DeVos - charter school proponent.

That’s my counter-conspiracy. I don’t think it’s true, but it makes a hell of a lot more sense than an anti-gun protest.

ElleChaise,

Also helps raise more uneducated and poor voters to support the Republican party.

Yawweee877h444,

Agreed. The uneducated are much easier to manipulate.

AccmRazr,

Worse. It’s part of the school to prison pipeline. So they are basically going to remove the right to vote from these students in the future.

That’s exactly it. They even state it bluntly in their 2025 dictatorship manual.

Is Greg Abbott's lack of a spine the reason he uses a wheelchair or just an ironic coincidence?

Burn_The_Right,

Nothing good in history has ever come from conservatism. Nothing at all.

RegularGoose,

Hey, that’s not true! Nazi uniforms were very fashionable.

It's not new. Hitler did it first.

Can’t vote them out of office if you can’t read the ballot.

JasSmith,

It's a shame they didn't have the funding to keep the libraries open. On the other hand, schools desperately need more discipline. There are horror stories from teachers on /r/teachers. Physical assault. Guns. Drugs. It's insane, and there are almost no repercussions. If the previous system didn't provide a high quality of education, I'm all for using a proven model instead.

RegularGoose,

I’m all for using a proven model instead.

What “proven model” would that be? It sure as fuck isn’t anything similar to this.

SheeEttin,

I don’t think “disciplinary centers” are a “proven model” for healthy education

dragonflyteaparty,

They don’t cite funding as the reason, but low test scores. As if getting rid of libraries and punishing kids instead will raise test scores.

xuxebiko,

How to make people hate libraries, so the electorate will remain ignorant.
