    The old lady's husband was a retired Paris cop. Comme Clouseau. He was always bumping into stuff. I gave him my weed eater when we left. And a cat.

    When given that little bit of stability many homeless people manage to rebuild their lives. That suggests the issue isn't them not making an effort, but that the circumstances they have found themselves in overwhelms their ability to effort themselves out of the problem.

    Surely if we want people to make an effort to better themselves (something I think we could all agree on) then it follows that it makes sense to have a system where people can see examples of people's effort paying off?

    If I'm homeless and surrounded by examples of how the situation is nigh inescapable, the temptation to escape into the comfort of whatever substances I can easily get is going to be a lot higher than if I could see that my effort to better my situation was likely to work out.

    Oof. The superintendent said the e-word. And they teach critical thinking. That's code we all understand.

    The cat was from Miami.

    Why the fuck do they recite "THE PLEDGE" before doing anything?

    If that was a PTA meeting here the first order of business would be finding the kettle and biscuits.

    A lot of places pray too.

    We're pretty backwards.

    But I think that's just the protesters making the point only they are patriotic.

    They might be right.

    We had another cat from Salt Lake City.

    If you don't make everyone publicly chant about how you're one group under gods watchful eye then the scary communists will get you.

    It's pretty much Marxism so the guy is straight up lying in the video which is in part the goal of teaching CRT.

    For a so-called independent you sure to buy into a lot of shit that seems to come straight from FOX News.

    And don't think we haven't noticed the whole "Black anti-racism is actually stealth Marxism so when I'm opposing anti-racist and pro-civil rights stuff it's actually because I'm anti-Marxist" contortions you've been going through. :brood:

    No, here's an example:

    It's cute that you buy into the left's narrative that this isn't about Marxism.

    Y'know what's fascinating?
    How righties see communism everywhere, but they refuse to acknowledge that crypto-fascism exists.
    Even though Hitler in "Mein Kampf" never comes right out and says "Muuauauhahhahaaa!! Kiiiill jewwwss!! :diablo:".
    No, he coded and dog whistled that shit.
    "Mein Kampf" is the Nazi Bible, and it's fucking crypto-fascist.
    No, but it's the commies that wear masks!
    The commies!

    Anything kinder than a constant barbed lash across the back is not just communist, but Satanic.

    Hey, remember when the right accused some people of being crypto-commies, and the commies took their mask off, and marched down the street screaming "kill the bourgeoises!!" and threw Molotov cocktails?
    Remember that?

    Oh, wait, no, it was us predicting crypto-fascists, and the violent outbursts were Charlottesville, Unite The Right, January 6th, Portland, every other Trump rally, etc, etc, etc.

    Hmm, so why are righties so confident and arrogant even though their predictions are an unbroken record of miserable failure?
    Oh, right, you don't have to care about that when you're a fucking sociopathic liar.
    There we go, I solved the mystery.
    Give Scooby a treat, and let's go to the next haunted house.

    Religion is being taught, but they're not trying to indoctrinate students.

    Creationism is being taught, but they're not trying to indoctrinate students.

    A really warped and unrealistically to the point of dishonestly patriotic version of history is being taught but they're not trying to indoctrinate students.

    The PTA recite the pledge and salute the flag before meetings but they're not trying to indoctrinate students.

    Everyone has to stand for the anthem and salute the flag at club level sporting events but they're not trying to indoctrinate people.

    Public events are interspersed with intervals to cheer and applaud members of the military and "thank them for their service", but no indoctrination, no sir.

    According to @Federal Farmer and the right's definition of indoctrination 2+2=4 is indoctrination. We must rebel against the logic and facts that allow us to progress and communicate because not to do so would be indoctrination.

    The reality is we have to agree on certain things in society. You know, like the meaning of the word hot. According to the right they should all have to come to their own conclusion as to weather something is hot because accepting that fact when someone tells you it is hot means you are indoctrinated. No, we just both agree to what english words mean so I do not give myself throat blisters drinking coffee from mcdonalds while still the temp of molten lava. FF I guess is the type to poor it onto his crotch because warnings are indoctrination.

    Indoctrination is not automatically bad. We all do it because we were indoctrinated, aka raised, into a society of standards and communicable facts. Yes, indoctrination can be bad when you are forced to accept lies as facts. You know like xenu and jesus are real, Jim Jones kool aid is the best, and Biden stole the election. It is the bad form of indoctrination to accept the fantasy of cult leaders like socialism and communism are evil, hillary sells babies out of fast food joints, and trickle down economics and cutting taxes for the rich works for the poor. Sometimes we need to agree on facts like America was founded on racism and sexism, racism exists, and the republicans live in a fantasy world invented by idiots and loonies who escaped from the booby hatch.
