I don't want to downplay this kid's suicide, but what does it say about our country that we are begging for public schools to reopen? And we're saying that public schools closing is one of the critical problems of these bullshit fake lockdowns?

We should be pushing for them to stay closed forever. Not just saying that. Fuck public school. They just want to indoctrinate your kid. Private schools or homeschools. I just really don't understand conservatives begging for garbage ass public school to reopen.

You're right. Public schools are poison. What we need is for kids to live and be kids. That means going outside, going to friends houses.

My son and daughter stopped going to karate and ballet because they were closed, and then when they reopened they would have had to wear masks. They both loved those activities, were starting to make friends, and were learning.

It breaks my heart, but I won't have them stand around in some Eyes Wide Shut nightmare with faceless instructors, breathing their own carbon monoxide.

The problem is real, but you are very correct: public school are not the solution to the real problem here.
