  • Reddit is being taken over by mods and redditors, that won’t only not read your comment if you disagree with them, but will report you instantly. I had been on reddit for like 9 years, and got a lifetime ban for being transphobic, which I’m not. I commented on a post that went along the lines of " We need more trans people in Government local, state, and national" My comment was literally, “We need the best people in these roles, and if they’re trans that’s just fine, but we shouldn’t be picking leaders based solely on their sexuality.” BAM’ banned for life due to hate speech and transphobia. On a comment on a political sub, that had like 30 upvotes.

    It’s amazing you used standardized test stats, while I believe the test are part of the problem. When I was in school, you learned the subject, and the standardized test was a decent level. Now, all the subjects are should be called reading comprehension, because that’s how they teach. Teachers are held to teach their students how to pass the test. Extra school funds are tied to percentages based on test scores. So they pass out, and teach off of, worksheets that are mirrored off of these test. So they don’t teach science, hey teach you to answer the multiple choice questions after reading about science. Everytime my kids bring homework home i ask them if all of their work is like this, this being reading comprehension worksheets, and they say “pretty much”.
