The GOP-created university civics centers aren't popular. They want to require attendance.

Conservatism is indistinguishable from satire, at this point.

It's why I can't watch South Park anymore.

How many were just there to further legit academic studies in fascist propaganda and abnormal psychology?

Yeah, if my college was doing anything like this I’d absolutely show up with my phone to record or pencil and paper if they don’t allow recording. The potential for study in several different fields is through the roof.

Literally teaching ignorance.
I went to The Ohio State University, this sickens me. What a fucking joke. They are shoving literal republican propaganda into higher education, and when nobody signed up for it, they're now going to force them.
One of the "teachers" there was already fired for attacking a student.
They're evil, they're stupid, and they're going to force your children to sit down and "learn" their ignorance. I truly despise republicans.

Yup. They can’t win fair and square, so they cheat.

their shitty republican ideas aren't good enough on their own merit to be taught in schools, so they're misusing DEI to shove it down our throats.

Remember how they kept saying their victims of woke being taught in schools?
I hate them.

So...
They're not allowed to teach civics, but kids have to take civics?
If anything this is gonna make those kids more leftwing
Like, back in the day when kids got caught drinking underage so they had to work "sober nights" at student centers, and then all of them got shit faced after the event.
Forcing kids to do shit like this has the opposite effect.

From the party that claims the left is indoctrinating people, mandatory right wing classes!

It's everywhere. I heard a comparison between the American revolution and the French revolution and thought that's an interesting topic. Went to YouTube, top 3 videos were from "In God we trust", "Rebel news", and "the heritage foundation".

If you’re interested in the French Revolution, the podcast Revolutions by historian Mike Duncan has season 3 devoted to the French Revolution. It’s very in depth but also very accessible.

Such a good podcast, I can't wait for the new one now that he's announced it.

New season, new podcast, or new revolution?

Leaving my previous comment.
