When great controversy surrounds the curriculum, the safest thing to teach is nothing at all.
- titzer 1y agoA lot of controversy is fabricated willfully by ideologues who believe absolutely batshit insane things.

- simpaticoder 1y agoTrue enough, but that has always been true. Something has changed on the institutional side such that it is no longer willing and/or able to simply reject batshit insanity and continue teaching children such that they are as well informed or better informed and capable as the last generation. What results is a positive feedback loop where a poorly educated public puts increasing pressure on an institution who's members are themselves poorly educated. The result is paralysis, and eventually, societal death.

They are teaching nothing specifically because they don't want to kill the golden goose. If there wasn't so much money at stake we wouldn't be having this discussion.
