Well if that isn't just about the most evil thing you could openly admit to doing.

Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

Why would you admit to that?
Because Republicans hate education. Most of the maga crowd will cheer this as a way to get back at the "wokes", or "intellectual elites".
I can't think of anything dumber than labeling intelligence as evil....
So of course Republicans do that
Voting a convicted felon sex offender pedophile serial liar insurrectionist gassy orange fatman with a weird yellow comb-over and a bad case of fronto-temporal dementia as president?
I'm not sleeping or functionally retarded. I am the boogeyman
There's a reason that authoritarian revolutions typically have a "kill all the eggheads" phase. That type of arrogance isn't compatible with someone saying, "Hey guys, I've studied this my whole life and what you're saying is incorrect.". Fragile egos can't deal with the idea that they might be wrong about something, so they just hulk smash anything that might cause cognitive dissonance and move on.
biggest threats to conservatives are educators, professors, teachers,,,etc.
My dad is maga. The reason he would say is the teachers union protects bad teachers and just shuffles them around.
Don’t agree with it but that’s the talking point.
But that's what cops do
And priests
Honestly, if someone finds the original post and "inspect element" to change this to police, it might be enough to get a reaction out of maga.
Well, you can't choose your parents...
Are people really upset at... bad teachers? with everything else going on?? Like I also had a few bad teachers as a kid, but I also had a future with a biosphere that can sustain life. Maybe we should focus on the actually existential one here.
No maga is focused on things that really matter instead, like the 5 or 6 trans women in sports
he seems to be confusing it with catholic priests? they shuffle them around for sure, and also any evangelical pastors too. "terrible teachers" usually get booted from the industry quite quickly.
Where "bad teacher" is "teacher who taught the kids critical thinking and science so they started asking uncomfortable questions".
"They made me parent! They made me... (sobs) think"
I think he's confused them with police unions.
Teacher's Unions aren't perfect and there have been some valid complaints about them, but that's basically every union. Honestly, my biggest complaint is that teachers have unions and they're still not paid enough.
But at any rate, this is typical conservative rhetoric. "We've found (or invented) one thing we can complain about, so rather than having a rational, calm discussion about the state of things and how we can improve that thing, we want to cause the most drama, scare everybody the most, and tear everything down, while promising to replace it with something better, a promise that we'll never, ever, in a million years, deliver on."
they arnt, even in blue areas while thier wages are much higher, the hcol kinda negates it, unless you somehow can make it to 10+years as a teacher you will get close to 100k, usually teachers often supported by thier SOs most of the time.
it should be 100k from the start. they are dealing with admins with red tape bratty children, unruly parents, children that arnt willing to learn,,,etc.
Soon it will be illegal to teach the masses to read, write, add, subtract, multiply and divide.
