The Pedogogy doesn't matter as much as you think it does, because you learn it from your kid what works pretty fast. Most of the pedogogy is crap and outdated and you have to choose one and stick with it for the class where with homesc

Right, so fix that first, don't tell people they have to go to a certain school while you spend another 30+ years figuring it out. Also blaming it on just conservatism is silly, the bluest most democratic districts have some of the wor

Buzzfeed is still very much like that. Buzzfeed News is a separate org, and to be honest, the sharing of the brand probably does more harm to the new org than good even though its done some respectable reporting in the past.

Buzzfeed and Buzzfeed News are two different sites and operate separately, they just share the name, the OP was conflating the two. As you pointed out Buzzfeed is still largely garbage.
