Virginia's newly elected Republican governor, who has banned critical race theory in public schools, is launching a tip line to report teachers of "divisive subjects."
In a Monday interview with the conservative radio host John Fredericks, Gov. Glenn Youngkin said parents could email the state government to report any public-school teachers they believed to be "behaving objectionably."
Youngkin said: "We're asking for folks to send us reports and observations that they have that will help us be aware of things like privilege bingo, be aware of their child being denied their rights that parents have in Virginia. And we're going to make sure we catalog it all.
"This gives us a great insight into what's happening at a school level, and that gives us further ability to make sure we're rooting it out."

Youngkin, the first Republican to win the state in more than 10 years, was sworn into office earlier this month.
He made critical race theory an academic practice developed by legal scholars to examine the ongoing effects of racism in American policies and institutions a key component of his 2021 campaign.
Youngkin banned the teaching of "inherently divisive concepts" on his first day in office. The order didn't define "divisive concepts," but it cited critical race theory as an example.
The order was issued even though critical race theory was never part of the state's public-school curriculum, The Washington Post reported.
As one of his first moves in office, Youngkin also removed school mask requirements statewide, allowing parents to opt out of compulsory mask rules in classrooms and prompting several school districts to defy the move.

Q folks already seeking to abuse it.

I'd be petty enough to tell my kids if a teacher ever mentions the Bible, to let me know so I could report them for mentioning a divisive subject.

This stuff is a bigger problem than CRT ever could be

Does the right just want to backtrack a few dozen years? Is that the end goal here? Erase anything about acceptance and equality and make sure kids are raised to hate, basically seems like what this is.

uh yeah that's exactly what they want

It'd be a shame if that tip line got flooded with bullshit reports of fake teachers

The MO of American conservatives has been to return to the 1950s, ever since the world left the 1950s

Weird. This sounds like cancel culture and censorship, but like, actually becoming policy.

Its part of the long term goal to destroy public school and funnel all that property tax money into the hands of a few billionaires who will own all the private schools.

CRT is tame academic shit from the 1980s that these people don't (obviously) understand.

"white privilege" is just a harsher way to say "the black man has it more difficult in america"
that and your standard prison-industrial complex observations, specifically about race, and you've got the basic idea.

the problem with banning it is that it's literally just observations of reality, so you just ban talking about reality?

god damn republicans.
