  • That’s not what Alakazam is talking about here though. Just by owning land, it generates money, magically, from “nothing”. And then the vast majority of landowners use that as excuse to entrench their wealth and then you get… Waves hands at hyperinflated rent crisis what we’re all stuck in now.

    Whether someone wants to be one of the “good land owners” or not doesn’t change the fact that the system is set up for the ones that want to exploit it















  • So I read the document, and I think it’s actually worse than what OP wrote. Looking through the curriculum, there’s a steady emphasis on African Americans as “patriots”

    Identify African Americans who demonstrated heroism and patriotism (e.g.,Booker T. Washington, Jesse Owens, Tuskegee Airmen, Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, President…

    And conveniently there’s no mention of how systemic racism and white supremacy still exist and oppress African Americans today. Garvey, etc. Are mentioned but conveniently in the past.

    Which is what they want. Emphasize the model people and show that they can be patriots. Downplay what you don’t like. Maybe your definition of education is different but I don’t think it should be about saying we should all be good little flag salutors.

    I agree that it’s rage bait, but you can’t trust Florida on this.

    Btw the fact that America makes kids pledge an oath to a flag every morning is fucked up, just saying.
