Here's what comrade De Blasio is doing to the public schools system in NYC.

In a new plan announced by Mayor de Blasio, parents were not-so-subtly warned that they needed to get on board with the new plan or else:

We were presented with a slideshow that included a photo of white adults snarling at black schoolchildren in the South in the 1960s—as if only vicious racism could motivate parents to oppose eliminating an admissions system that met superior work with a more challenging placement…

One training slide was titled “White Supremacy Culture.” It included “Perfectionism,” “Individualism,” “Objectivity,” and “Worship of the Written Word” among the white-supremacist values that need to be disrupted. In the name of exposing racial bias, the training created its own kind.

Always find it interesting when a liberal faces the reality of the policy positions they've been supporting.

    It's interesting because they can usually avoid that result and thus ignore the hypocrisy. Making 300k in NYC is already tight if you want a decent place to live. Toss in the non-deductability of their state and local sales tax, property taxes and state and local income taxes along with now private school tuition and it gets real tight.

    If you have a combined income of $400K and you're living in New York and you're to trying pay for housing and now you have to also pay for private school in NYC for two kids, you aren't staying in NYC.

    Individualism isn’t for the blacks. Clearly the can’t be trusted off the leftist plantation to think for and take care of themselves and their families.

    Blasio and his merry band of HondoBros are control freaks, fascists, immoral, and racist.

    I always find it odd the way Asians do so well in the "White Supremacy Culture." It's almost as if "whiteness" or any other skin color has nothing to do with it.

    I noticed OAN finally started calling them fascists, the proper term for these people, instead of liberals. More media outlets need to get on board, start addressing them publicly as fascists, call them out to their faces. They are not liberals, there is no room for them under that umbrella.

    They aren’t liberals. They are leftists and fascists. I’m a liberal. The founders of this country were liberal. The misuse of that word is astounding. But most people are ignorant. So it’s not surprising.
    You're fighting a losing battle. Did you know gay used to mean happy?
