Some of Dickens is written for older audiences and has a higher reading level, but I read Oliver Twist and David Copperfield before I was in middle school and had no problems getting through either. I may have been too young to fully understand and appreciate all of the themes or messages in those stories, but not all of Dickens is some some impossible obscurity beyond the comprehension of modern man. The teachers' union needs to be abolished and the miserable wretches who allowed the education system to sink to this state should be flogged in public.



That wouldn't have gotten a B from my high school English teacher. At the time none of us appreciated her for being as harsh as she was, but I cannot deny it more than prepared me for college and any professional writing that I've had to do over the years.
The specific text they were asked to rewrite was the introduction Bleak House. It's a bit archaic and has a decent vocabulary selection. However, they were college students specializing in English literature studies. They DEFINITELY shouldn't be reading at an 8th grade level, so you're right about that last sentence there. It's absolutely astonishing. I wasn't the best student in college but I didn't end up at literacy level fucking two.
 
What struck me about this story is that this child was having daily anxiety attacks for weeks and the teacher didn't bother helping him. This teacher was considered especially nice in the school. The other teachers screamed and insulted the children. It was fine to belittle the children and call them annoying, just don't commit a racial microaggression while doing it.
Teachers in the west have to waste so much time nowadays training for DEI that they spend next to no time focusing on stuff that actually matters. This is a western problem only. While America and Canada obsess over how many different races we can shove together, every other country in the world focuses on math, science, and getting ahead of everyone else. Thinking about how to cater to every race imaginable just isn't a thing outside white countries. Canada and America's children are dumb because they have to listen to DEI constantly and can have AI do most of the actual work for them.
 
I still love the fact that the Democrats think this is a major win for them, completely missing the point that their entire base is going to start turning against them in the next week. Expect major pressure to be put on them starting Monday. They'll cuck out like they always do.
What win, the Whitehouse renovations?
 
Number One Zionist congressman Randy Fine has introduced a bill banning members of Congress from possessing dual citizenship:
Good start, now do this with voting. Other countries have this, hell india has it. There's no reason why we should not, and yes this should extend to internationals originally from the US as well.

Internationals have no investment in the US save for using it as a coffer to plunder and will sooner flee than try and fix it. We don't need fair weather Americans.

They can't cuck on illegals, their entire electoral strategy depends on foreigners voting for them en masse.
 
Never has a truer statement been uttered.
Flogged is an understatement. The entirety of public education needs to be fucking destroyed. Think about it, why is it called "public education"? Because if you called it what it is most sane people would recoil in horror. Government education, that's what it is. Trusting the government who can't even deal with fixing a fucking pothole with educating kids. And that's not even being really honest. The real name for it should be Theft Derived Child Rape And Indoctrination Centers. You could give parents the amount they give the school system per student to just teach their kids at home and the results would be better objectively. When was the last time you saw a school shootings at a homeschool?

They can and will, because it doesn't invalidate their strategy at all to lose. They just need to say "See, this is why you have to vote for us next time". Its about the captive voter base, the illegals they're appealing to with this action aren't gonna suddenly switch republican and vote for their own deportation because they didn't get Gibs.
 
The article is quite the read.

Some excerpts:
Fine said he did not look to target any particular member of Congress – “I don’t think anybody knows” how many dual citizens serve in Congress, he said – but wants to push back against antisemitic accusations that pro-Israel, especially Jewish, politicians possess dual loyalties.

“I got tired of the antisemites going after people like me because we’re Jewish, and saying because we’re Jewish, we must be dual citizens,” he told Breitbart News. “So I was like, all right, fine, I’ll match you and raise you one. You can’t serve if you are one, because I’m not, and I don’t know that any of the Jewish members are. I think this is some fictionalized concern that people have, and let’s call it out. Let’s deal with it.”
The firebrand congressman is unconcerned with any pushback.

“I learned a long time ago, there’s never a bill that doesn’t have pushback. I’m certain there will be,” he said. “I’m certain that members who happen to be dual citizens won’t like the bill,” adding “I don’t know who they are.”

Fine said he would be “open” to some kind of similar law for certain classes of federal employees.

“Should you be able to work, for example, at the CIA if you’re a dual citizen of a country that may not like us very much?” he asked. “Look, let’s focus on [his bill] to start. But I don’t think that’s a bad idea.”

As he focuses on his bill, Fine intends to push to get the legislation passed.

“Look, it’s a big deal,” Fine said. “A lot of people talk about it all the time, America First dual citizen. I’ve been accused of it for years, but I figured I would shut up the antisemites by saying, fine, you know, challenge accepted. Now shut up and let’s get the bill passed.”

I'll help him out with that. Here's a US Congressman, Israeli citizen, and IDF officer in his office at the US capitol wearing his IDF uniform.
