Indoctrination in Florida schools? PragerU’s conservative content aims to change minds

Gov. Ron DeSantis repeatedly says he opposes indoctrination in schools. Yet his administration in early July approved materials from a conservative group that says it’s all about indoctrination and “changing minds.”

The Florida Department of Education determined that educational materials geared toward young children and high school students created by PragerU, a nonprofit co-founded by conservative radio host Dennis Prager, was in alignment with the state’s standards on how to teach civics and government to K-12 students.

The content — some of which is narrated by conservative personalities such as Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson — features cartoons, five-minute video history lessons and story-time shows for young children and is part of a brand called PragerU Kids. And the lessons share a common message: Being pro-American means aligning oneself to mainstream conservative talking points.

Indoctrination is okay when it's conservative and/or Christian.

 

[wonko the sane?]

Sadly, I predict a lot of law suits, and a hell of a lot more teachers quitting and abandoning the state. It'll probably collapse the public education system.

so the jackasses lying about teachers supposedly grooming students are now, of course, the ones actually trying to groom students.

predictable.

 

[wonko the sane?]

Because when a republican says it: every accusation is a confession.

They were always aiming for it. After all, grooming from the youngest age possible makes it easier to keep kids stupid and obedient.

At least it's easy to cure using antibiotics these days, and WHO provides them for free.

 

[CoffeeHorse]

We haven't banned the WHO from operating in Florida yet, have we?

 

[wonko the sane?]

Not so much banned as shoot on sight...

It's funny and sad at the same time . . .

[Ironbite4]

.....I'm....no sorry this is just disgusting!

Ironbite-and that's who DeSantis wants teaching kids?

 

[wonko the sane?]

Nope, that's what he wants TAUGHT to kids. He really doesn't care who does it, so long as it's complete and utter extremist bullshit that can be exploited down the line. After all, children are our future... unless we stop them now.
