Woke in Payson

Wobbling out the door Kadizzle picked up the Payson Roundup on the driveway. Soon he discovered the school board feels the other school boards in the state are too "Woke".  What in the hell does woke mean? It means you are just too conscious or something like that. Dingers don't like educated people, and woke is a code word for people who seem smarter than you. Inventing words they don't understand is classic Republican Hooplehead strategy. Sure enough our school board is also concerned about critical race theory. The school board doesn't want children thinking outside the box, and the school board wants a very small box. Somehow the state elected a super dolt to be the school superintendent for Arizona. The dolt played to the simple minded crowd and won. 

Being deliberately ignorant is a goal of the Hoopleheads. That in itself is sad, but inflicting their stupidity on all the children is a real crime. There might be an upside to this. If you are not in the home school Hoople crowd, and you have children, then the Hooples are giving your kids a head start. When the Hooplehead deliberately make their children idiots, then that opens opportunities for normal children. 

Life is a race for resources. Give your kid a lousy pair of shoes for the race? Filling a child's head full of nonsense is like giving them a mental disease. If you ever watched Mormon children, or Amish children you get the sense they are in a trance. They have been isolated from reality. 

At some point most people with a good mind break out of the silly cults, but many weak minded people stick with the cult until they die. 

There is a crises hiring teachers. Who wants to teach in a school run by a school board full of idiots banning books and cooking up woke schemes?  Now, because no respectable person wants to be a teacher Arizona has come up with the idea of letting the bus driver teach or maybe the janitor.
