I'm one of the few teachers in a TEXAS school that would probably be labeled right wing even though my economic philosophy aligns with the French philosopher Proudhon and the American heterodox economist Henry George.

Nearly half my district moved to devote an entire week to teaching Black Lives Matter. I had to go to the district meeting and point out that their proposed curriculum violated civil rights law to get the idea scrapped & I suspect I only succeeded because the state recently put my superintendent on alert for telling people to vote for politicians who oppose school choice.

You need to make sure your child's English & Social Studies teachers know at the start of the semester you will go ham on them if they try to be partisan. I teach science - physics - so I'm mostly immune from ever having to deal with controversial topics but I've had students try to get me to talk about politics and I refuse. I want to say I'm not the exception to the rule but that's increasingly not the case.

Any retards that want to talk politics in physics should not be in physics.

No serious physics teacher would make this statement. I would rather you tell me the huge impact of politics on physics. If you are a physics teacher - you ARE without doubt another diversity hire retard who No Child Left Behind made you think you were smart and college accepted your retard weighted SAT scores, then pushed you through so there could be peace and quiet for the actual academics, and then some shithole urban district hired you to fill a quota. You will never be a real teacher or a real man. You are also 4 hour old account.

You are purposely evading the post in context because you felt the need to 'flex' being a physics teacher - which means you are one of those teachers who think you are greater than the subject. Nope - this would be a studies on the impacts of politics on physics course (and your examples provide great valid subjects for such an extension) - but not the science of physics, as a serious student would be introduced to from a serious teacher. If you got kids circle jerking questions to BLM or Biden or this election in your physics class instead of learning - you know - physics, you are a just paler fucking NCLB buffoon pushing more retards into 'Bill Nye Degrasse Tyson science politics' as your comments from a 4 hour account suggest.
