    This is fucked. They are allowing your tax dollars to be used for Christian Fundamentalist Schools. All that fear mongering about “brainwashing” your kids with CRT and the LGBT-agenda in public schools that never existed, and the Republicans are literally trying to push a religious agenda down the throats of this citizens of this state.

    How long before girls are banned from the higher level STEM classes and instead required to take Home Ec and urged to be stay at home mothers and wives, you know, like Harrison Butker and his wife suggested?

    We are fucking backsliding as a society…

      Conservatives are backsliding as hard as they can and are dragging the normal people down with them.

      Conservatism is social cancer.

      It’s worse than that. The money that goes to private schools is taken from public school funding. It’s just another way to further separate classes.

        Yeah. It’s bad. In case anyone can’t see the writing on the wall, they are going to give everyone vouchers so that they can afford to leave public schools and go to private schools and then gut them later.

        The vouchers will further tank public schools. Republicans will then be able to argue that public schools are failing, that attendance rates as abysmal, and they should shut down funding to them (and conservative voters will eat that shit up as their entire world view is based on sound bites they got from Fox News). I bet the voucher programs don’t last much longer after that once there is no alternative.
