Experts sound alarm over concerning ‘propaganda’ found in public school curriculum: ‘It’s evil more than it is stupid’
Experts sound alarm over concerning ‘propaganda’ found in public school curriculum: ‘It’s evil more than it is stupid’
The videos that push lies about sustainable energy and global heating will now be a part of the public school curriculum in Florida.
What's the point of teaching children to deny climate change? So that they won't go and find a solution? Are they trying to eliminate human beings?
A lot of these religious folks think the apocalypse can't get here great enough, so they are helping
Teach 'em young to get more votes. Republicans have been playing the long game for generations now.
If anyone has not previously googled for PragerU content, you should. I watched a couple vids and looked at images from a textbook awhile ago. You'll be sure it's either satire or fake. Best as I can tell, it's neither. That makes it scary.
Thanos was right. Some greater-being should just snap some part of humanity out of existence. Just not the random half, but those who actively try to ruin it for the others.
Is anyone able to find these videos on the Florida list of approved materials? I found statements from state officials that Prager is included, but I don't see it in any official documents or [teacher resource lists](https://www.flimadoption.org/Bids/Adopted Materials). I'd love some help digging it up so I can get involved.
Zoe Bee did a great video recently where she broke down some of the PragerU teaching materials from a teaching materials. They're worse than I expected.
I wonder if other well-known industry groups are also called our for their propganda? For example recycling is pushed by the plastic industry, the notion of "clean coal" is pushed by coal mining, and of course the entire notion of volunteering for charity is just Capitalism ensuring that societal problems will never try to be tackled by a Government.
This is no different.
What schools are teaching clean coal as part of their curriculum? And yes, even ineffective solutions like recycling are extremely different and far better than teaching kids outright denial.
I don't know any specific school that is teaching clean coal, however there is nothing at any school district that would preclude clean coal from being discussed as an answer to climate change. Much like the PragerU videos. No school district is currently using those videos, but there is nothing stopping any school from using them which is what the whole article is about.
