:geordi-no: Maths is Genetic, breed math-children
:geordi-yes: Teaching things in school in addition to Flag, Eagle, Freedom
A robust and well funded education system is never the cause of a well educated population. Academic skills originate from forehead size and eyelid shape, obviously.
Let's humour this and pretend it's something you can do. As a math person, trust me you don't want to breed more of us. Ypu'll just get a population of annoying pedants all suffering from a very specific type of anxiety.

Fuck, we bred the wrong type of pedant

Yeah we are don't gaslight me
It's not like material conditions under capitalism could find a use for all of them anyways.
I think Shinzo Abe is pretty tight with some folks that are working in this space. Anyone heard from him recently?
this country will default to eugenics a million times over before even considering just funding schools and paying teachers well :internet-delenda-est:
We could start breeding Americans to be better at math

That's why we should bombard people with as much gay and the trans propaganda as possible, so that only the super straight genes get left in the gene pool.

I will never understand this person's desire to appeal to the very people that want to hang her. Does she really like money THAT much?
Does she really like money THAT much?
I'm sure she also considers herself one of the good ones who the lynch mobs will pass by because she reinforces their beliefs.
FD signifier did a good take on what Candace's deal seems to be.
Besides, having ridiculous amounts of money can to some extent buy her the safety she needs, as long as she is still useful to the people propping her up.
there is something uniquely vile that republican RNC black people using race as cudgel against black people. I know some real black republicans (many in my extended family) and all of them, ALL OF THEM, see their success as solely a result of their own ability. All of them believe there is a weakness in the soul of black people that must be defeated or those who bear should be punished for it. It’s really just the most jacked up internalized white supremacy.
As such they believe they overcame so other should be able to as well, not have those obstacles removed. It’s really frustrating when Owens and Owens-like figure speak like this. It’s bad to black people in general, racist to Korean people specifically, and show a blatant and intentional misunderstanding the causes of social outcomes. These people can see disparities but are totally incapable of wanting the systems to change only the people.
They are smart enough to acknowledge things could be better but believe things must stay as they are and black peoples should be better. Pull up your pants, stop listening to rap music, sandblast everything about yourself that doesn’t fit into our Very rigid sense of “success”. Don’t change your conditions or the systems that create them.
I hate the black RNC republican archetype because so much of their critique of black peoples is so interwoven with capitalism, American Christianity, and real white supremacy they don’t even see it. Its really individualism on turbo overdrive with a shot of raw hatred coated in pseudo-intellectualism.

The bougie black libs I know also believe this lol
Oh for sure! 100% they believe this too. the black liberals use fancy words and lofty ideas but it’s the same sort of toxic mindset.

Yeah, my big brain take that I've been preaching for a while now is that there are two kinds of people: 1) Life has been hard for me; I don't want anyone else to suffer like that, and 2) Life has been hard for me; why should anyone else have it better than me?
There’s a black jazz musician who “befriended” Klan members and “changed their minds.” Centrists and conservatives :same-picture: like citing him as evidence of why you shouldn’t censor free speech or prosecute people for hate crimes and simply instead talk them out of wanting to kill you, cause it’s your personal responsibility!!!
Can't believe a 16th century monk bred some flowers and now I have to listen to this shit
America having mentats is bad, but mentats on the whole are pretty awesome.
All the elites and their kids are still getting a decent education in all the technical stuff. Meanwhile, the conservatives want the majority of the population to learn about the science of Jebus and the rib lady. You can’t have the whole population become skilled in math and science, otherwise you can’t force poorly educated people to head to the manufacturing factory where all the math is being used to engineer bombs and tanks
It's a contradictory mess that I am told that as a non-fash, I am both "the enemy" that needs to be Minecrafted, but also "the help", as I am just some rube to doesn't understand the genius of white people, so I should just shut up and spend the rest of my life cleaning toilets while the geniuses sit on their asses spending their lives making up bullshit rules.
