#1 So basically doing away with education all together. If there is no discipline, there is no learning.


“The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.”
― Socrates

#2 'Entitlement' trumps good order and discipline. It has for many years.

#3 seeing what the "educators" suspended students for in the past, such as wearing pro-Trump clothing (such as MAGA hats, etc..), this may not be such a bad thing.

#4 The pretense of universal education wears thinner every day.

#5 Oh I'm sure there is an exemption for those cases Seeking Cure. They will just call it inciting an hate crime or something. But ANTAFA will be just fine.

#6 CA's are among the worst schools in the nation.

The UC system is following them downhill-- still strong in many areas but noticeably deficient, even second-rate, in many others. Having inherited the world's best public university, this generation of shitty CA politicians and educational bureaucrats is now presiding over the decline of the golden system that fueled CA's industrial and tech growth.

It's appalling to watch this train wreck unfold.

#9 They're smothering it with chickenshit, bureaucratic reporting requirements that suck up many hours each week from the homeschooler's parents. War of attrition.

Also, if/when the UCs go "test-optional" for admissions, home-schooled applicants will be SOL for gaining entrance to those schools, as only standardized tests can convince an admissions committee that the home-schooled applicant can do the work.

Yet another nail in the coffin of educational excellence. F--- these morons.

#12 Thus adding self discipline to the pre existing advantages of literacy, numeracy, and organizational skills currently referred to as "toxic masculinity and white privilege."

#14 This suggests a variation on the "Islam Is Right About Women" troll meme.

"The Left Is Correct That Black and Latino Kids Can't Be Civilized".

Clunky, but apparently true.
