Oh, Seattle. What an absolute garbage place to live it must be (rivaled only by the backed-up sewer that is Portland).
This story's a real doozy and I've added it to my list of "Reasons why my future children will go to private school because the far-left are intellectually bankrupt racist lunatics."

Wow, that's a scary read. I wonder if the nimrods in charge of this stuff realize that Wayne's World is a philosophical goldmine, as compared to the crap they're pedaling.

That response by Drjbhurtt is likely a troll account. Only two posts and just happened to be created the same day that original tweet went up.
One of the main reasons Twitter is trash. Not only is it infected with ideological extremists (mostly from the left), but there are tens of thousands of troll accounts that do nothing but stir the pot.

Further investigation would most likely show this discrepancy is due to poverty and parental involvement. But by all means, declare the grading system racist and eliminate it!
Who cares if none of the underlying issues have been addressed, at least those minorities aren't receiving failing grades any longer. Yay team!

Yeah, the last thing we want is for students and their parents to make any effort to do better. Where would that get us?

Of course, questioning how - grades
- homework
- report cards
- tests
- subject areas
- sorting & ranking Are racist would get one labeled as a racist. But it would be really cool if someone would actually be able to do that.

Christ, that woman's tweet is far too much stupid for me to handle. If you check out her website, she's basically just an equity grifter trying to sell her book and charge a fuck ton for "leadership seminars." She is selling ideology, not proven, data-driven facts.

Do people use facts these days?

Some do, but we're a dying breed. Critical race theory and intersectionality has basically been the "Order 66" for academia. It has basically murdered most of the rationalist Jedis out there.
There are few of us left.
