Whose $50k a year job is worth making waves over? Florida teachers aren't exactly in the place financially to be fighting battles like this. Best they move on to better states that aren't being run by fascist hillbillies that will actually appreciate their skills and talents.

Moving on is also good, but if you teach this in your class you are complicit and should lose your teaching license permanently.

Insert Chris saying that the slaves shouldnt be working in their land if they didnt want to be slaves or something?

Oppression makes a wise man mad. Your fathers were wise men, and if they did not go mad, they became restive under this treatment. They felt themselves the victims of grievous wrongs, wholly incurable in their colonial capacity. With brave men there is always a remedy for oppression.

What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer: a day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciations of tyrants, brass fronted impudence; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade, and solemnity, are, to him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisya thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation on the earth guilty of practices, more shocking and bloody, than are the people of these United States, at this very hour.[18]

The crack you heard, was the sound of the slave-whip; the scream you heard, was from the woman you saw with the babe. Her speed had faltered under the weight of her child and her chains! that gash on her shoulder tells her to move on. Follow the drove to New Orleans. Attend the auction; see men examined like horses; see the forms of women rudely and brutally exposed to the shocking gaze of American slave-buyers. See this drove sold and separated forever; and never forget the deep, sad sobs that arose from that scattered multitude. Tell me citizens, where, under the sun, you can witness a spectacle more fiendish and shocking. Yet this is but a glance at the American slave-trade, as it exists, at this moment, in the ruling part of the United States.

They convert the very name of religion into an engine of tyranny and barbarous cruelty, and serve to confirm more infidels, in this age, than all the infidel writings of Thomas Paine, Voltaire, and Bolingbroke put together have done

Really all anyone has to lookup to see how wrong they are is Douglas' 4th july speech.

literally fuck christopher columbus why in the fuck do right wing chuds feel such loyalty to that maniac

I was with him until the jabs at Paine and Voltaire. Damn it Freddy. You got the first part right: religion sucks. Now finish that train of thought.

Anyway I've read his autobiography and I'd categorize it as horror. Should be required reading for everyone in America public schools.

Jokes on you, the veterans and their spouses being allowed to teach in Florida arent required to be certified.

Yeah, but that's an issue that's probably going to require military assisted removal of people from office at this point.

They made the clarification just recently after they shit canned 261. We are more then allowed to make the comparisons to the GOP and Nazi rhetoric now.

If Republicans had a brain in their heads they'd see that right there is indoctrination.

But they don't.

No, no, you see, it's fine when they do it.

Yeah, they took like 1/4 of his point and skipped the 3/4 that was the real point. Kind of like other conservatives do with MLK and his colorblind statement.

Literally changing history to own the libs

That's what the racists do. They take civil rights leaders out of context and use their statements to shame black people while ignoring the majority of what they actually say.

Indoctrination is the point. So believe this is counter indoctrination, because reality has a liberal bias. Some know that's bullshit, but don't care, they want "their" side to "win."

But they absolutely know it's indoctrination. It's what they want.

Just one more reason Ill never set foot in Florida again. A shame, too. I used to be a surfer.

this is so much worse than a parody even

"What does the culture at the time think of as no big deal?"

Curious if this is used to defend other cultures or just white Americans.

As they consistently show their problem wasn't with children being indoctrinated, it was children being indoctrinated into becoming decent people who have decent views of the world and those around them.

Every conservative viewpoint generally boils down to "They shouldn't be allowed to do those things! Only we and the people who have opinions we agree with should be allowed!"

Some are, but most are simply fleeing Florida. The state has seen a massive brain drain and teacher exodus practically overnight due to this.

Which exacerbates the problem, because now DeShitstainis can plug his right wing propaganda slingers into those teacher spots.

The next 30 years are going to be something. We've seen what 40 years of right wing propaganda has done already (thanks, Faux News and literally every AM radio station in every shit-kicker town) I don't even want to think of another 30 with it happening right in our schools.

the white house needs to step in and stop this crap

The comments celebrating slavery are gross.

Columbus was a hero, though, and should be celebrated for the good things he did.

People didn't like him even back then. So his hate isn't new. In fact the love for him is .

It has increased since that shithead on Fox News was like "ya but some were kind and the slaves learned skills tho"

Good things?

So which are the good things: the slavery, the rape, or the murder?

The only reason someone would defend slavery as "not so bad" is because they want to bring it back.

Solar_Crimson posted...

A lot of Americans are in a position where they can't do anything about it without losing their home, especially if they have kids. Same reason why Americans tend to not go on strikes.

All as designed, of course.

Unless you actually do "do something", you'll end up a slave or an indentured servant. And the bare minimum is to vote for someone who is against such ideas, against a party expressing such ideas.

Then you could even go farther... and help choose the candidate who will be on the November ballot but voting in the primary.

Those are the minimum everyone should be doing.

If you like surfing, go to Nazar in Portugal.

While the plane tickets may be more expensive than to Florida, the low cost of accomodations and food will easily recoup the expense.

Conservatives lie their asses offf. Most people should realize this.

I remember when the right would mock people for comparing something modern to slavery because that would show they are "privileged and ignorant of slavery". Now it's become "Slavery wasn't so bad. It's the last time your kind was useful and appreciative."

What don't you understand about some people not having a choice? Packing up and moving anywhete of distance, especially to a different country, takes time, money, and sometimes other resources people just don't have access to. You make it sound so easy.

Tbh weather or not it's easy doesn't matter. But rather if you should, and are willing to or not. IF or when things generally become bad enough.

Even if it means being left with nothing but the clothes on your back.
