Weaponization of Education
We won the evangelicals. We won with young. We won with old. We won with highly educated. We won with poorly educated…I love the poorly educated!
- Donald Trump (probably while pissing his pants for all we know…I can’t confirm or deny this and it’s simply my opinion so legally can’t come after me for just hypothetically throwing out that he could indeed have been peeing his pants)
Breakdown
What: We are seeing the breakdown of our education system to manipulate the next generation into accepting new narratives that suit the current administation, increase compliance, and have greater control over people.
How: Various examples below
- Putting pro-trump conspiracy theories like the "2020 election fraud" or refraiming the Russian invasion of Ukraine into public school cirrculum in OK.
- Lousianna is attempting to mandate that all public schools display a copy of the Ten Commandments.
- Florida schools were just approved to allow PragerU, a right wing indoctrination media company that promotes racist and pro slavery rhetoric, into classrooms as learning material.
Why Care: Knowledge is power! Without the facts, future generation's opinions and in-turn votes will reflect the agenda of the current administration. Ew.
