If there's one thing the Right has done much better than the Left over the last 20+ years, it's engaging people at the local level. Even if they have to lie to do it. There are lots and lots of school boards all across the country, but it only takes a small amount of money to mount an effective campaign in each one.

The Republican M.O. lately has been to create fake controversies in their media, the run against them. This lady proves it - she was elected based on all the objectionable things she thought the school wad teaching, only to land the job and realize none of what she campaigned on was actually true. She at least had enough critical thinking to realize she was being deceived. Most others would double-down on the alternative facts, so they can keep the money coming in.

The pervasive indoctrination she had railed against simply did not exist. Children were not being sexualized, and she could find no examples of critical race theory, an advanced academic concept that examines systemic racism. She’d examined curriculum related to social-emotional learning, which has come under attack by Christian conservatives who say it encourages children to question gender roles and prioritizes feelings over biblical teachings. Instead, Gore found the materials taught children “how to be a good friend, a good human.”

No shit. Well. Good for her for doing research, even if it was much later than it probably should have been and started on questionable assumptions.

Edit:

She, too, had been outraged by school mask mandates and vaccine requirements during the throes of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Big sigh.

Conservative opinion stations where they spew lies daily are negatively affecting Americans in a big way that we won't be able to come back from if it isn't taken care of.

Why are they allowed to lie about major things that make people make terrible decisions without any consequences? We really need some news regulations before conservatives destroy America with their filth.

Make laws that protect the layman from insidious individuals like everyone at fox.
