Several state-approved textbook chapters, one board member argued, were inappropriate for students because they discussed “vaccines and polio,” touched on “topics of depopulation,” had “an agenda out of the United Nations” and included “a perspective that humans are bad.” With @texastribune.org
Martyrs with brains needed for Texas school board.
If you do not want your children educated, then homeschool them, and let the rest of us actually educate ours.
So they actually want polio again? Wtf is wrong with these people?!
OH NOES VACCINES OH NOES SELF-REFLECTION OH NOES UNITED NATIONS SO MUCH BAD
We are living “1984”. Texas, Florida, Kentucky and Tennessee are INSANE. IMPEACH & ARREST the conmen, the fascists, the fraudsters, the traitors. Get trump, Vance, Miller, Hegseth & Bondi OUT.
Let’s stay as ignorant as possible. MAGA will help.
Texas has been doing this shit since the 1st Bush presidency. And mostly getting away with it.
these people are idiotic monsters
Wow. Who knew there were so many christian nationalist snowflakes in our country?
The number increases exponentially when you add the fascists.
When these kids get to college, they'll be intellectually crippled, and in no position to compete with their peers. Texas lawmakers are making sure McDonalds and the day labor halls have an endless supply of warm bodies.
If you have children & decide to live in Texas, that's on you.
Texas sets the tone for the majority of textbooks sold in the US.
Assuming you must be a teacher so I will take you at your word. That said, I believe the first time I ever learned something from a textbook was in college 👍
Unfortunately many schools across the nation are stuck with looney changes demanded by Texas school boards.
Not strictly true. Texas textbooks receive a statewide thumbs up or down. Many school boards follow those recommendations. guides.lib.utexas.edu/c.php?g=5291...
No one likes narratives counter to their own. It’s all about controlling the narrative.
Texas on its quest to make students as dumb as Ted Cruz
Texas continues to hurtle into the abyss. When does it reach rock bottom?
Another reason why I HATE TEXAS!
Magas like their population ignorant!
"School Board Declares Right to Teach That World is Flat"
Eliminate mating history you don’t like so you can repeat it because it doesn’t fit with your view of the world. Hey Texas, just keep showing the world how stupid, racist, misogynistic and cruel you are.
** eliminating…. Damn auto correct. And hey BlueSky - we really need an edit option!
I think mating was correct since inbreeding is a thing there
Texas: making America dumber one textbook at a time.
Well. Texas am dumb. Texas maybe am dumbest.
Nuke Texas!
What can I say? It’s Texass.
We need a good revolution here in Texas.
NO MINORS
This reminds me of the first non-fiction (and not assigned) book I read after graduating from high school, Lies My Teacher Told Me.
Booooo
Of course, that board member is sleeping with her best friend’s husband and drinking booze at noon like any miserable Republican twat.
One of the Moms 4 Liberty then?
Born and raised in Texas .. glad I left. Once they secede, then they’ll need to build another wall .. and pay for it .. like Mexico was supposed to.
Let Texas pay to secede.
The ignorance that will overwhelm this country will be staggering.
Creating one of the most ignorant populations with the biggest guns. What could go wrong? Oh yeah you can have a senator (Cruz) vote to commit war on a country he doesn’t even know the population of!
And you wonder why Texas is LAST in mental health?
make the people dumber, then they'll believe all the misinformation they're fed! #1984
Has Texas tried to remove Juneteenth from textbooks also?
I would have to ask this person: Have you seen humans? They are objectively terrible, with few exceptions.
One of my kids went to a museum with a friend brought up in Oklahoma. When they saw the display on human evolution the friend asked what it was. Had never heard of evolution. At all. Thought Jesus created dinosaurs.
😳. I live in Texas and somehow that’s not surprising. Republicans love their “uneducated”. I’m glad my granddaughter only has 2 years left in public high school. Then off to college. Not in OK.
It is scientifically proven, by science, that Republicans in Texas have shit for brains, or to put it more clearly: no brains up there, just shit
Maybe they'll eventually be so dumbed down that they'll no longer understand how to mate...
“Humans are bad” is Christianity’s central tenet and reason for being! Original Sin, anyone?
