Top 10 stupid things teachers say

I have long insisted that most arguments that teachers make on their own behalf can be defeated with nothing more than common sense.

Why fascists love teachers

The idea that fascists fear teachers is an outright lie being actively promoted by liberal propagandist Randi Weingarten. She wrote a book specifically to promote this lie.

Misconception #180: "Public" schools support due process

Over the years, I have been writing about misconceptions regarding the schooling process. The purpose of these posts is to explain why I disagree with various comments that I have heard people make about schooling. These are meant as personal thoughts rather than conclusive proof, and I will admit that I'm not always the best at explaining my thoughts. Regardless, I have decided that I should be willing to share these posts when I encounter someone online who makes an argument that I have already discussed.

The consequences of not firing teachers

As much as I hate repeating myself, I'm going to have to do it. My biggest issue with Donald Trump is that he takes what I hate about the Democrats and brings it to the Republican party. Republicans are crossing lines regarding freedom of speech that has Democrats suddenly supporting the idea. Keep in mind that Democrats have openly supported criminalizing speech that makes them uncomfortable.
