"People go to school and trust their teachers. Then they enter the real world and work and they expect the news media to inform them. But if you have total decline in historical/civics education like we have you end up with the blind leading the blind. No one knows anything"

"Public education isnt just rotten because of ideology. Its that you have teachers w/education degrees and little subject matter competence. That means tweaking ideology or changing curricula wont save you. You still have incompetents in the classroom who cant do what you want. Reforming education will take 2-3 generations because you will have to start from the ground up training new people from scratch based on knowledge that is partially dead"

"Just passing a law isnt enough. Taking a history teacher educated in woke nonsense and expecting him to teach the intricacies of the federal system is like making the English teacher take over the advanced calculus class - you cant just snap your fingers"

"On this John Eastman thing. If you flip through a bar journal at the back there are usually reports on disciplinary actions. Disbarments follow from stealing from clients or blatant conflicts of interest. What you never see is lawyer punished for giving legal advice in a gray area. Thats what Eastman did - its what lawyers are supposed to do"

"Everything is less interesting. Shop-lifting used to require skill for instance. Once knew a clever thief who wanted to buy skis. He noticed at store the cashier would bind either end with a particular type of red tape. He went out found this exact tape put it on the skis and walked out the front door. Now people just charge into Nordstroms and steal in a wild frenzy"

"The "soft power" idea is interesting and maybe the appeal of Korean culture is the reason. But it's a very foreign culture for most Americans. Also - there have been a lot of popular German dramas in recent years (Babylon Berlin Dark) and it isn't translating to people wanting to learn the language"

"The DeSantis online brigade has harmed his campaign. He or his PAC should fire them all or (if they arent being paid) ask them to stop.

Probably they know it and are pissed off"
