Harvard Professor calls homeschooling dangerous

Karen, round #2

"We have to break through our private idea that kids belong to their parents, or that kids belong to their families, and recognize that kids belong to whole communities."

Is this a new thing for the Marxists now?
Cramming men into ladies restrooms was too tame, time to make a power grab for the children?

Bad idea.

I love this........ cuz I have a lot to say AZ bout how kids are being raised.

Why do classical liberals have a hard time taking back academia from the marxists? Is it bc they’re all big pussies and are afraid to use the same means and tactics as the commies? Why does Marxisim have such sway when it’s history is littered with human misery - why do people keep falling for these lies?

Nailed it.

It's true.
Their entire survival strategy is to control thinking from a young age, and erase socialist failures from memory.
The schools, and the education sector in general, is their most powerful asset.

I am of the opinion that the reason that so many bad ideas come from academia, and because it has been this way for as long as I can remember, is because Academics are simply divorced from real world outcomes. Like, if I suggested a system in the private sector that caused a company to hemorrhage money, then I would be fired or demoted. But academics know how to obfuscate, mislead, and argue stupid shit, and thy are not on the frontlines, so it really doesn't matter. Our gov't would have to become utterly bankrupt for them to lose their job. They have no skin in the game.

Excellent question.
Classic Liberals just want to be left alone. They are like sleeping lions. Eventually, when pushed to far, they get up and kill the hyenas.

Maybe because it wasn't really the intent of classical liberal academia to "own" or "take control" of academia, but to use academies (universities, colleges, etc.) to soberly and as objectively as possible discuss the various philosophies, ideas and ideologies and their merits, faults and past, present and future influence on the world. No matter if you're talking actual Marxists, or the SJW "Marxists", their goal is control, intellectual dominance, as opposed to allowing for discussion, debate and criticism. It would be self-defeating to adopt their means and tactics, especially when you consider how unpopular those are with most regular people. No one wants to have radicals scream exaggerated accusations into their ear, and demand that you be fired from your work for voicing a contrary opinion to their own in public.

Adopting the tactics of degenerates doesn't make you a "winner", an "alpha", or a hero. Just makes you as annoying as the competition to most regular folks looking on. You didn't beat Communism by adopting a planned economy, ditching free speech, and instituting one-party rule, either, after all. Because you didn't need to, not because you were "too pussy" to copy the Soviet means and tactics. SJW "Marxism", as well as actual Marxism doesn't have a "sway" in current US and certain other Western academia. It has dominance. Some are true believers, I'm sure, but I bet you most students just bow their heads and don't raise a fuss out of fear of being branded an outsider. Young people feel ostracism more than anything in the world, as you might remember from your own teenage years. But give those kids a taste of the acceptance of freedom, that there can be an academic world where they could discuss their thoughts, freely, without the fear of total ostracizing, and baseless guilt by association hysteria? That's the winning tactic, that's the means of victory. Liberty as the tactic towards liberty the goal.

Absolutely no idea how you'd succeed at that, since it would require a better insight into what makes young Americans tick and what makes them so susceptible to being bullied by SJW's (and thus how you could ease their minds/build them up), but generally - defeating the Commies by acting like Commies doesn't seem like a long term winning strategy. That's just self-corruption.

The way Liberty gets back in control is the same way the egalitarians got in control: exploit the weakness of Capitalism. Libertyists must buy back the MSM, fund Entertainment, fund Tech, fund Higher Ed. I'm talking the same kind of $trillions that China uses. These are NOT investments because all the money is lost; the intent is to use imaginary money to take over.

As for the motivation of the participants, that's Slave Morality combined with the social pressure coming from MSM, Entertainment, Tech & Higher Ed.

My wife and I decided to home school all our children before all this happened. To those who wail at the moon about "socialization" seem to be under the impression that the only meaningful socialization happens in the public school setting. They completely discount extended family gatherings, home school co-ops, and church as places where kids can still get socialization.

I really don't know why public school socialization is seen as something positive. For years these nerds have been crying about how hard public school was on their delicate little psyches, and now they're harping on about how essential it is. Which is it, poindexter?

Hence

Lots of out of school activities with other children needs to accompany homeschooling or you can end up with kids unable to mix well with others.

Here it tends to be kids joining football or other sports clubs since hardly anyone goes to church anymore and those that do tend to be elderly.

Much like small children you can't help reentering something from which you said you were going to withdraw from. See the valuable service I provide?

QED.

QED.

your response is identical to every childless leftist response from the most misanthropic, weirdo, leftist shut-ins in the world.

QED indeed.
