American teacher described his first day as a substitute teacher “I thought y’all was lying to me when y’all said that these kids didn’t know nothing. These kids don’t know sh*t. Like, nothing. Nada. They don’t know basic math, addition, subtraction, division, fractions, multiplication. They don’t know none of that, and it’s really sad. They can tell you what a gay person is, what’s bisexual, what did Diddy do, what kind of gun this is, who who who’s saying this song, the lyrics to that, and they know all of that. They know what studs and dykes is, but they don’t know what basic math is.”
- The American teacher’s account of students knowing pop culture and identity politics but lacking basic math skills exposes the catastrophic failure of the left’s education agenda, which conservatives have long warned prioritizes indoctrination over learning. This isn’t progress—it’s sabotage. Fact 1: The U.S. ranks 38th globally in math, per 2024 PISA data, with 60% of students below proficiency—yet 85% of public schools adopted DEI curricula by 2024, per NEA, focusing on “social justice” over core skills. Fact 2: The left’s darling, the NEA, pushed $500 million into “inclusive” programs since 2020, per their reports, while math scores dropped 10%—meanwhile, 70% of parents say their kids are taught to reject American values, per a 2024 Heritage survey. Fact 3: Progressive policies slashed vocational training by 30% since 2010, per NCES, leaving kids unprepared for real jobs—yet 90% can define “non-binary,” per a 2024 GLSEN study, showing where priorities lie. – More at X
- Democrats turned schools into child sex indoctrination camps for future grooming. This is child abuse. – Calamity Jane
- AND in compensating for the dumbing down of our youth it’s been our child’s experience in community college that professors are telling students at semester’s beginning ‘the best they can expect to get in their class is a C,’ which has happened in several classes over the last two years here in AZ. I firmly believe this is being done to accommodate those lacking appropriate skill sets coming out of high school, and while it serves some, it has the potential to screw-up our child’s GPA who is pre-med and it matters. How you say? Because when getting considered for medical school or any other profession GPA matters, unless institutions are instead pandering to DEI theory and practices regarding admissions and then such practices fit…PERFECTLY. As a sidebar, I also believe these Leftist machinations are occurring with our credit scoring where ‘excellent’ credit, that’s been earned and maintained, isn’t being properly conveyed and attributed, also to accommodate the realities of Democratic forces purposely failing aspects of our society. – Stone Temple
- Yes – it’s extremely disappointing to know this is the future Democrat Liberals want for America – we will go from Civilized nation to unintelligible adults who have no qualifications to even work a McDonald’s cash Register. Teachers You are the LAST HOPE – Save the Future (focus on Education: math, science English if you don’t want to see decline in the future of the children)
- The Dept of Edu was created in 1978. By threat of w/h fed funding, they coerced all pub schools to implement DOE’s agenda. Autism skyrocketed from being forced to take CDC’s list of bioweapon vaccines to attend school. Actual learning plummeted, indoctrination ensued – True Explorer
- He’s right I spent the first half the d the year substitute teaching and wow, you can never push forward with new material when you are constantly attempting to reteach 3rd grade math. There are just not enough hours in the day. – Michael Gunderson

- It is on Parents & Teachers & dept of Education. For continuing to pass them when they don’t learn, or listen. And it has been happening for a while now. My son is in his 30s now but when he was in 4th grade I was getting calls daily about him not doing homework or class assignments. I begged, bribed, & buckled down on him. Asked for assignments to be sent home that I had to sign, didn’t happen. Then towards end of year I wanted to hold him back since nothing I was doing was working, but I was told since he passed his EOGs tests he could not be held back. Luckily my son finally got the message but not until High school when a teachers actually backed me up and told him they would fail him if he tried pulling that with their classes. That actions will have consequences. He finally got it and actually applied himself thereafter. – Michelle
- Our public school system has successfully created a slave caste in the US. The kids that don’t escape are doomed. Escape is possible, but….. I’m not holding my breath. HOMESCHOOL YOUR KIDS! – Charles Waters
