If a right wing party uses leftists ideology in education as an excuse to not fund education, make it work so there is no argument to be made.
The problem is that our right wing thinks that basic facts are ‘left wing ideology’ and we can’t “make it work”.
Like, I grew up in a conservative state, with an education that stripped out everything they complained about, and we didn’t even cover reproduction in high school biology because the right doesn’t want sex-ed. Nevermind that kids were banging in the bathrooms, we couldn’t learn about mitosis because it might lead to impure thoughts.
What sort of compromise would you even suggest with that?
Edit: I had a girl in my senior class that was pregnant with her third kid, and she literally didn’t understand why she kept getting pregnant and actually thought god was sending her babies so she’d be a great mom.
