Indoctrination Center Ahead

Update in 4 Months

2006-03-02T19:04:00.000-08:00

Hello to my faithful readers. It's been almost about 4 months, and I can finally relax a little. I got into my top choice college, so it's all good.

School Newspaper's going very well. I definitely shattered a few myths about me being the Nazi Conservative. One was that I wrote a factual piece on the Alito confirmation, and it received good feedback (people were spending much time debating it, which is rare). Second was a huge anti-HAMAS commentary. This school has a very big Jewish population, so it really threw them off their feet when I wrote something that's *gasp* Pro-Israel. Naturally, this one girl who always tries to harass me for my political views (the one who called me an obnoxious jerk in response to my Sheehan column) again tried to "pwn" me, this time saying that I was "pissed that the free elections didn't turn out the way I wanted." Damn right I'm pissed, but I'm also really disappointed in the Palestinians. Now that Sharon and Arafat are out of the way, they blew a huge chance to start over with the Israelis.

Not too many other updates actually. The only major one from my school is that my sociology teacher is spending this quarter teaching a class on race relations. It's pretty decent, except for the occasional moments where he slips into white-bashing mode. I would have to say that his course has an agenda, but no objective whatsoever. We basically spend every single day discussing the grievances of minorities, espeically the Blacks, Hispanics, and Indians. Of course, Asians don't count because according to him, we're "honorary whites" and we sold out a long time ago. I love how he says he's trying to promote racial understanding. He only alienates a few races. Nothing bad, right?

Then there was the unit we did on Jews. Given modern conditions, I would expect him to be a Jew-basher. He wasn't. He really supported to Jews (he should; he's married to one). Of course, he doesn't support him in the way I would expect. Everyday, he would launch into an anti-Christian tirade on how we oppress the Jews. Now, I don't deny that if the Islamic influence dimished, there would be more anti-Semitism, but please; he at least could have fed the class reality and not bullshit. What's worse is that there's a liberal Jew in the room who agrees with every word he says. Guess what happened when he opened a class with the question "how would the Jews react if America suddenly decided to go to war with Israel?" Of course, I call him out on such an unrealistic proposal, adding that we wouldn't want to lose a key ally in an unstable region (especially Bush, who tends to politick a lot). He responds, "my purpose is to make you uncomfortable so I can get you thinking." Let's try this: for the rest of the quarter, I'm going to make an extreme-right statement in class. We'll see the outcry it gets from my classmates as well as the predatory counterpoints-borderline-subtle censorship from the teacher. Free thinking when it only goes one way right? Maybe if he didn't push so much of an agenda people would be even more uncomfortable and would think better. Bet he never thought of that.

My speculation on 2006 Massachusetts Gubernatorial election voting record was right. All teachers voting for Reilly except for the 2 Republican English teachers. The primary has them locked in debate though. One's voting for Kerry Healy (current Lt. Gov.) and another plans to vote for Gary Lee. We'll have to see who breaks through.

Next item is Black History Month. Definitely a time to celebrate. There was a bulletin board dedicated to some of the lesser-known and more contemporary blacks for dissented from the mainstream. I see people on there like Thurgood Marshall, Danny Glover, Angie Stone, Kofi Anan, Queen Charolette, and Coretta Scott King. Good stuff, except three good people are missing. Given current events involving racism from within, I would expect Michael Steele to be there. He endured way too many racially charged attacks to just be left in the dust. Another famous black that gets no credit is Thomas Sowell. Good social commentator and definite influential figure. Too bad everybody sees him as a sellout. Next is Uncle Tom, I mean, Clarence Thomas. Yea that Clarence Thomas. I've seen the way the school characterized him before. One of the test questions for US History was "what is Clarence Thomas' most known feat on the SCOTUS?" The correct answer was "votes with Scalia on 93% of issues." Wow. Way to make him out to be the house slave. Of course, he's not on there either. I actually put out a request to have him on there, but the man in charge of the bulletin board utterly refused, citing that Clarence Thomas does not represent Black interests. Since when did he have to?

Final Newsbrief: As asshole teacher in Colorado spent a portion of class ranting against America. Only one student stood up to him. That brave souls deserves a Freedom Seal of Approval. Link here: http://www.rightontheright.com/real/wp-trackback.php?p=819

Another Ally in Academia

2005-11-16T16:39:00.000-08:00

My European Literature teacher created a sensation in the class today by coming out as a Republican. We were discussing John Milton's Paradise Lost and digressed onto the topic of rejection from college. That was when he seized the moment to criticize the mis-emphases of modern learning theory.

As far as I could tell, he seemed to have a major beef with self-esteem. He never stated that it's over-emphasized in public school, but all of his quotes point to it. "[This school] has the worst quirks. All you guys think 'MY LIFE IS OVER IF I DON'T GET INTO HARVARD.' You know what I think? I think society shelters the youth a little too much. I've taught at many different schools and I would have to say that students in this one handle rejection the worst. When I was in school we faced rejection all the time, so when I applied to Harvard and I didn't get in, it came as no shocker to me." The reaction of the class was rather hilarious. The students were pretty much stunned, especially this extremely liberal girl (I just found out she was in charge of the "Casulties in Iraq" map), who, while normally talkative, didn't speak for the rest of the class. When I commented, "welcome to the self-esteem generation," he responded with, "exactly."

This teacher already had conservative inclinations. Over the past 3 months, he's dropped a few subtle hints that he disagrees with the way kids are currently being taught. His teaching style is also rather rigorous and classical. By that I mean he opens up the class to a moderated symposium and teaches us in a very Socratic manner. Even when we say something that he agrees with, or if we say something that hits close to the target, he always plays devil's advocate until we hit the bullseye.

Later on during the Paradise Lost discussion, we were discussing the stance of Humanists vs. the stance of Catholics. I asked him about his stance on issues, and that was when he dropped the bombshell: "I'm not as conservative as I make myself out to be, but I'm a Republican." When I asked him if he was a RINO (a term most real Republicans should be familiar with) he responded with "definitely not." I wish I could have probed him a bit more, but by then, the class had ended. Still, it's nice to know that someone within the higher powers shares my views and would support me in a debate. Yet another Republican English teacher. Brilliant.

Anti-Military

2005-11-15T12:40:00.000-08:00

An Army recruiter came in today for lunch. He had no place to set up, so the administration put him in front of the current events board. Seems like a pretty good move, considering the current events board featured an article talking about Army recruiters scouting NASCAR tracks. However, immediately after he had finished setting up, the man responsible for the current events board removed the recruiter article and posted 2 anti-military articles. One did coverage on the nation's growing opposition to military recruiters. The other was an opinion piece titled "Anti-war Activists, Where are you?", a piece targetting young America to "throw down your iPods and take up the peace sign." What's worse is that the writer thinks that we should protest Iraq the same way we should protest Vietnam. My interpretation is that the author intends for young America to spit at our soldiers as well.

The administration originally established that the only articles featured on the current events board are should to be factual articles detailing current events. However, recently, I've been seeing more and more op-ed pieces on there. That I can easily forgive, and probably encourage. However, posting two blatantly anti-military articles in the presence of a military recruiter is completely inappropriate, if not disrespectful. In addition, it's also a dirty form of subliminal messaging, and I won't stand for it. I will try to find out the man's intentions for doing this. He better have a good excuse.

As if that weren't enough, some of our school's druggies organized a mini-chant, "don't kill babies" (note the hypocrisy), and started parading around the building, chanting faster when they pass the recruiter. The vice principal caught wind of this and spoke to them about it. The VP is aware Tinker vs. Des Moines would allow the students to do a chant like that, so she spoke to them about their ethics, and the principals respect. Normally I would fight for the students, but for once, I think I agree with this authoritarian b*tch.

The recruiter then had a little break from the activism, 10 minutes or so. Then 2 flamboyant women (presumably lesbians, judging by their holding hands and groping each other) started asking the recruiter about info on gays in the military. This put him in an uncomfortable position, but he explained anyway. Just before he brought up the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy, a dude came up, saluted the recruiter, and then started making comments about how good he (the recruiter) looked, and proceeded to ask him questions about how soldiers "entertain" themselves while at war. Sexual harassment anyone?

As a person who takes a genuine interest in joining one of the branches of the Armed Forces (undecided as of yet), I chimed in and started making conversation with the recruiter. I saw the look of relief in his eyes. A few seconds pass by, and the lesbians and the dude leave, high-fiving each other.

Those were all the happenings I witnessed today. Our school has 3 lunches, and I was only there for one of them, so who knows? I honestly feel bad for the recruiter, taking all that shit from a school community that prides itself on openess and respect.

Where to Begin?

2005-11-03T12:13:00.000-08:00

Teaching Americans to Hate America

Apparently my activism is making more waves than I expected. About a week ago, I showed Dr. Thomas Woods's book The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History to one of the AP US History Teachers. She was rather delighted, and proceeded to order a copy for herself. Clearly she was a centrist, because after all the squeals of happiness, she immediately said, "you gotta examine history from all sides. I have to make sure some of the stuff I'm saying is irrefutably true." I was happy that someone was sensible enough to at least investigate into the "underground" scholarship of history. That happiness faded fast.

I was walking homeroom this morning and I couldn't help but notice that there were multiple copies of A People's History of the United States and Lies My Teachers Told Me circulating. I myself have used the first book. It's not bad, but it's pretty much accepted that Howard Zinn is extremely liberal revisionist and anti-American. Normally I wouldn't object to the teaching of his book, but teaching it in coordination with Lies My Teacher Told Me (DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE TITLE; IT'S AN EXTREMELY ANTI-AMERICAN BOOK) puts our US History curriculum in question. If this wasn't in response to my presentation of P.I.G, it makes me even more suspicious of what the history teachers may be doing. This type of stuff should really be subject to a good amount of scrutiny.

Anecdote of the Day

During a group discussion in Medieval Literature, I pointed out that the Jews are the most oppressed people in the world. Immediately, a prominent liberal tries to nail me for my anti-Semitism. He backed down because 1) Someone else in another group (a liberal) was saying the exact same thing and 2) I interrupted his ad hominem and finished my statement: the prized Ivy League Schools, the American government, and the U.N. are only making the world worse for them, and that this kind of treatment should end.

Bulletin Board

The Cindy Sheehan column is still making reverberations. This morning, I noticed that one of our giant bulletin boards was covered with a giant map of the United States. I didn't know the purpose of this map, so I ignored it. Later today, a few kids were placing pins on the map. Guess what they represent? Give me a silent nod if you catch my drift. There was a handwritten title describing the map as "US Casualties in Iraq" and a sheet of paper on the site saying "Each pin represents one body that will be returning home inside a flag-draped coffin." Technically the bulletin board is free use, so I can't do anything about it, but damn. It's on. I've been on the defensive for a while now, but it's time to start taking the offensive. Now that I'm writing for the school newspaper, I have a very useful tool to make my attacks.

More on the school newspaper

Many of the letters I read actually agree with my view. Naturally a few people called me an extremist obnoxious jerk, but in a school where Political Correctness is a mentality, I was suprised that more people agreed with me than not. It turns out that even the anti-war crowd is sensible enough to realize that Sheehan had an underlying motive and was being an extremely annoying presence. Not to mention, her conduct and her speech were absolutely flippant for a "grieving mother." I guess I have a lot of work to do this year when converting people to neoconservatism. No word yet on whether or not I should respond to some of the letters in the next issue of the school newspaper.

School Newspaper coverage is ongoing. Keep on tuning in.

Smiley, Alito, and the News

2005-11-02T10:55:00.000-08:00

There's too much to fit in this post. Here goes...

"Someone Buy This Kid a Dictionary Part II"

It's old news now that Thomas "Smiley" Delay has been indicted. Apparently it's something new to one of the kids in my school. Upon reading the headline of last week's Globe, he started high-fiving his friends. When he noticed me, he regained his composure and I asked him why he was so happy. He knew I was conservative, so the first thing that comes out of his mouth is "I'm not a liberal, but I'm definitely not a fascist." Clearly he didn't look up the term "Fascist" in the political dictionary, nor did he look it up in the Standard English dictionary. The next half an hour resulted in a pretty heated political debate, but he knew he had no chance after I defined the term "fascist" and listed the actual beliefs associated with it. Being his proud self, he kept going, but he showed some pretty obvious signs of waning confidence and desperation. The bell rang after that, so the debate couldn't close, but I think what he heard from me might make him go home and re-examine some of his misconceived terms.

Racism and Alito

It became immediately obvious to me how much Miers sucked as a candidate for the SCOTUS. Well, Bush is on a rebound, at least within the conservative community. With that said, thank God for Alito. Naturally the liberals feel the need to bring up the subject of his race. Can't have another "fascist white man" on the court right? Any levelheaded person would notice the racism of certain attacks against Alito. Some of it is subtle, like the supposed Democrats' document circulating that claims Alito failed to prosecute Mafia members because he was Italian-American. While the Democrats might have intended this to be a nepotism attack, it's pretty obvious that this attack is ethnically charged. Democrats in all their integrity and "tolerance" shouldn't even think of this strategy. Oh well. I guess one part of them hasn't changed since the 1960's: their underlying racism. According to MSNBC's Chris Matthews, "This is either a very bad coincidence or very bad politics. Either way it's going to hurt them. … Not abortion rights, not civil rights but that he failed to nail some mobsters in 1988 – this is the top of their list of what they've got against this guy. Amazingly bad politics."

School Newspaper

Coverage of the school newspaper continues, but before that, I'd like to refer you to a CNN "article" on what Bush keeps in his pockets. This wasn't filed under Opinion, and CNN presented this attack as... NEWS. Bias? I think so. http://www.cnn.com/2005/POLITICS/11/02/bush.pockets.ap/index.html

As for the newspaper, I spoke with the freshman writing an opinion about America's bungled disaster relief system. He's ambivalent on which liberal approach he wants to take to present the issue. As far as I see, if he wants to make disaster response about race, he can either pull a Kanye West (GEORGE BUSH DOESN'T CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE) or an Anti-American (ALL AMERICANS HATE ARABS). I think the Kanye West argument would be easier for him to make, especially since he can mention that we responded extremely fast to Wilma (which struck where all the rich old white people live). I would also expect him to tie in Iraq. He's not politics-savvy, so he'lll probably use "how is it that we were so fast to get to Iraq, but so slow to get to New Orleans?" Whatever argument he uses, I will nail him in a counterpoint. Point-counterpoint is the only section of the newspaper with a lenient word limit, so I really look forward to his writing his piece and my fisking of it.

In addition to that, I will no doubt try to defend -- to the best of my ability -- all these indictments and charges against the Bush Administration and the Republican Party. While I object to certain actions done by certain members, I believe the media *coughcoughNewYorkTimescoughcough* is making much bigger an issue of this than it's supposed to be. My hypothesis is that they want to shift the public's attention from their own guilt, because even if info was leaked by the administration, the media is equally as guilty for making it available to the public (and then refusing to reveal the source from which it got the info).

More on this later. Coverage will be ongoing.

Someone Buy this Kid a Dictionary

2005-10-31T15:24:00.000-08:00

I was doing my homework in school today when I suddenly hear a kid start on a rant about the "right" to universal healthcare, the "right" to social welfare, and the "right" to social security. Clearly this kid did not know the meaning of the word "right" and couldn't differentiate it from the terms "title" and "privilege." If my assumptions are correct, this kid probably also knew jack about government. Curious, I investigated into what he was doing that triggered this sudden rant.

The kid went on that tangent while he was working on a Constitutional case studies paper. He was to pick from a list of questions about the Constitution and write a paper answering the question. I worked on this paper last year, and some of the questions genuinely got people thinking while others were just plain absurd. My guess is that this kid's question pertained to the "right" to universal healthcare and social security. I remember a question like that, and the kid who contested that question was in for a rather rude awakening.

My school US History curriculum uses the Constitutional case studies paper to segue into a unit on the Constitution. Basically, the kid didn't know anything about the Constitution or the government. Yet here he is ranting away about how the government is failing in its "responsibility" to protect everyone's "right" to healthcare, welfare, and social security. Our school has very high standards for US History too. I guess it's yet another failure of the public indoctrination system.

Hating Christopher Columbus at Pierce School

2005-10-24T15:35:00.000-07:00

Columbus Day: to celebrate or not to celebrate? That was the question posed to seventh graders at Pierce School in Brookline as a project for their special unit on Christopher Columbus, taught during the weeks preceding Columbus Day. The answers were to be published in the opinion section of the Brookline TAB, the town's newspaper, which I stumbled across while browsing the noteworthy updates of TABs across the state of Massachusetts (I do this weekly and I recommend this activity highly as it has proved to yield plenty of entertainment for the whole family) .

Ironically, all the answers provided by the seventh graders and dutifully published by the Brookline TAB had the same programmed party line, i.e., Columbus was a villain who enslaved helpful good-willing Indians, robbed them of their land, and afterwards the monster murdered 3,000,000 Arawak Indians. Most people would be shocked to hear this and would assume that these specially chosen seventh graders possess quite an active imagination. This assumption would be a wrong one. The source of disinformation is promptly and proudly revealed in the children’s’' letters.

All answers begin with the same prompt raving about the teacher "opening their eyes" at last to the horrible and hidden truth which only a few are privy to. The students feel privileged and enlightened about the true Columbus, they are grateful and eager to preach the greedily grasped ideas. The classic features of indoctrination are in full view, ready for the astonished world to view and examine.

We have observed these features before, haven't we, in the appeals of the Soviet propaganda, fascist propaganda, and islamist brainwashing. However, it is shocking to stumble upon such an odious indoctrination material in a free country, which grants everyone, even the children, the choice of their political convictions and the sacred gift of free speech. The trick here is to mold the children while they are still unaware of the choices. The middle school is a perfect environment for such a noble goal. The idea is not new. It was and is still used for this purpose in all totalitarian societies.

Here are some profound truths handed down to the victims of indoctrination:

"In my history class at the Pierce School, we have spent the last two weeks discussing Columbus and many other explorers. In that time, I have learned that Columbus was a cruel person. He forced that Arawaks to work for him and be his slaves after they were very kind to him."

"In my history class at the Pierce School, we have spent the last two weeks discussing Columbus and many other explorers. In that time I have learned that he thought he was in India, so he called the Native Americans Indians. I think because of his terrible behavior the holiday should not be called Columbus Day."

One of the more shocking 'facts' with which the children were armed and miseducated by their chief indoctrinator was: "Columbus destroyed 2 [million]-3 million of the Arawak population." Stop the presses, Christopher Columbus was the first person who invented the atomic bomb!

The students were then programmed to demand a new name for the holiday, among the choices were Arawak Day, Explorers Day, and even naming it in honor of the "stylish Vikings". Former Secretary of Education William Bennett coined the formula of style for the cultural education taking place in the public schools: "Hey hey, ho ho! Western civ has got to go!"

We all know why the instructors at American indoctrination camps brainwash their students against conservatives, Christians, Jews, Zionists, and especially President Bush. What brings them to this hate of Christopher Columbus, you may ask? The answer is found in a letter of a good student who listened to his teacher and/or received a healthy dose of Ritalin which is indispensable in the process of bringing up little robots for the cause: "We also need to give a huge apology to the Native Americans for stealing their land!"

The quote explains it all, Christopher Columbus is now at fault for his vile and terrorist activities in bringing western civilization to the Americas, along with George Washington and the rest of the founding fathers. After further researching the issue, it turns out that the Pierce School indoctrinator did not make up anything new: Christopher Columbus had been a target of the anti-PC left for quite a while now. Dinesh D'Souza explained this new fanaticism in his 1995 piece, "The Crimes of Christopher Columbus."

I receive numerous reports from outraged parents and students about the liberal indoctrination they encounter on a daily basis: removal of the American flag from the classrooms, refusal to have students recite the Pledge of Allegiance in the morning; teachers wearing "Not My President" buttons in class. To this routine liberal agenda aimed to turn the students away from the founding fathers, we must say: "Enough!" Every country in the world has its national heroes and feels pride for their founding fathers. Then there's the American public indoctrination system, teaching students to defame Christopher Columbus and George Washington, and to worship Hillary Clinton and Michael Moore instead.

I am posting these reflections two weeks after the children’s' letters were shamelessly published. I do hope to see some concerned parents and citizens speak up against this outrage. The letters were displayed originally as an example of how well the Brookline Public Schools are doing their job. It appears that it is now our responsibility to expose and fight this and other cases of educational corruption before it is too late and American traditional values will suddenly disappear. We need your help in this grassroots effort. Start by sending the published letters link to fellow patriotic citizens, calling Pierce School, as well as Brookline public school system. With your help, we'll be able to wake up America, so that everyone is able to see what is happening every day in the nation's public indoctrination centers.

Not only do we know the school's name, the name of the indoctrinator in question, Jamie Lyons, was also published. The relevant emails and contacts are listed below and are listed officially. Please keep me informed on your progress by emailing editor@republicanvoices.org . I will update you on this effort shortly.

Update: School Newspaper

2005-10-18T17:37:00.000-07:00

Went to a staff meeting today. The next paper is coming out in two weeks, and the editors-in-chief have decided to print a few of the letters responding to my Cindy Sheehan column. The faculty advisor in charge of the paper has read all the letters, and she informed me that most of them were in concurrence with what I said.

I find that rather surprising and slightly. Either I subdued them with simple research, they're agreeing because they can't debate, they're afraid of the Republican teacher's wrath, or they actually agree with me. My assumption is that the majority of the students who wrote those letters oppose the war, but are sensible enough to realize that Sheehan's a nutcase. We'll see once these letters actually come out.

Another thing covered was a "coordinated" effort to write about Harriet Miers. One will write something factual about her. My assignment is to follow up the factual article with an editorial blasting her from a libertarian/conservative's perspective. Then a third person will use my example and quote from my article and blast the Bush administration for its recent wave of political cronyism and how bad the administration is. Not sketchy at all. The motives behind this are pretty dubious.

Third item on the agenda is a freshman who thinks America can potentially be racially biased in its disaster relief decisions. His basis is that we did so much for Katrina, Rita, and the Tsunami, but we're doing little to help the earthquake, the war-torn areas in Iraq, and Africa. I wish him good luck in gathering a good fact base for this article, because I feel that my position (that we are race blind) is more prominent and that MSM supports me more. The faculty advisors are actually advising against his writing of the article. Should he submit it, they will immediately notify me and the paper will run a point-counterpoint page on this issue.

More updates later...

Greetings Fellow Rednecks

2005-10-13T12:14:00.000-07:00

Long time no post from this slave to the system. My school's actually become sensible. Our newspaper recognized the need for a convervative editorial writer to counteract the large amount of liberal opinion. Yours truly was invited (probably because I'm the only conservative in my school who can actually write). Well, this opens quite a few new doors. Like any good conservative, I introduced myself by declaring my support for the war. I wasn't blatant about it, but a scathing column against Cindy Sheehan was enough to get my name and reputation out there.

Reverberations came fast. One of our school's radical liberals confronted me within a week after the newspaper printed to tell me that I was an obnoxious jerk. What was ironic about the situation was that she interrupted me while I was practicing my instrument with a few friends of mine, pulled me into the stairwell (where sounds tend to echo), and proceeded to yell at me. One word: hypocrite.

A few days after that, the campus became plastered with "STOP THE WAR" posters from the October 29th Coalition, a peacenik organization with ties to United for Peace and Justice. I actually planning on doing some plastering of my own. For every STOP THE WAR poster I see on there, I'll surround it with four Protest Warrior posters. Hippie-ism shouldn't be allowed to go unchecked.

As if those weren't enough, one of our school's English teachers is having all of her students write me letters telling me what's wrong with my column. Given the nature of our students and the school's English curriculum, I'm expecting plenty of letters telling me "you're stupid and your argument's invalid because you didn't include any direct quotes from reliable sources." Great. School-sanctioned hate mail. Don't teachers have a legal obligation to report that kind of stuff? This one's giving it out as an assignment.

There's a glimmer of hope though. A Republican English teacher (yes, that sounds as contradictory as "Minority Conservative." Even worse, she's married to a Socialist) had her students do a similar assignment, except the letters her students are writing are recommended to be objective. While I still expect hate mail because we're a suburban school filled with spoiled teenagers, I would expect less deconstructionist letters, and maybe even a few letters of support. I've yet to read any of the letters, but our readers should definitely expect further coverage on this issue. Our newspaper took a huge gamble by recruiting me. I'll ensure that they get the biggest return from it.

BUSH'S TAX CUTS KILLED THE ECONOMY! HE IS T3H H1TL3R!

The alarm voiced by the committee investigating the accident had a (salutary) effect, for its dire predictions motivated people to take precautions that (averted) an ecological disaster.
How much did Greenpeace pay you to write that sentence?

Mary Cassat, an Impressionist painter, was the epitome of the (expatriate) American: a native of Philadelphia who lived most of her life in Paris.
Given current conditions, I think all radical liberals should also live as expatriate Americans.

Critical Reading:
Here's one bashing the scientific field for discrimination against women. Gotta admit, College Board was pretty clever to publish this right around the time Lawrence Summers announced his controversial theory explaining the lack of women in scientific studies. Happy reading:

The following one really got to me. Everyone knows that Clarence Darrow was the Johnny Cochran (God bless his soul, RIP) of his time. However, most critical reading passages only get a short few sentences to summarize the passage. Clarence Darrow gets 2 entire paragraphs outlining the entire background of a testimony he gave to the jury. Clearly it's a tribute to a liberal icon as well as an anti-American piece. You draw the paralells betwen then and now.
Questions 1-11 are based on the following passage:

Sorry about the poor quality images. My scanner's gone bust recently.

College Board Liberalism

2005-08-04T21:54:00.000-07:00

National standardized tests are the last places I would expect a liberal to dominate (well, except for AP US History). I found multiple left-slanted questions on, of all tests, the English Composition Test (similar to the SATII Writing test). So much for politics staying out of education. They started attacking our roots ever since the 1970's.

Identifying sentence errors:
"Undoubtedly, more voters in the urban areas will have voted for her if Juanita Morton had taken a less conservative stance."
Lemme guess: the error is "conservative."
"Introducing new ideas or even reestablishing old ones is always a highly controversial matter, especially in a pluralistic and changing democratic society."
Way to contradict yourselves idiots. A democratic society constantly changes BECAUSE it's the easiest society to discuss and debate your ideas, not because it's "especially the hardest place to introduce new ideas." Try proposing democracy in China and see how far you get. I already have $25,000 set aside for each of you to try to bail you out.
"Modern Yugoslavs are committed to self-managed socialism, a system under which the workers rather than the state, owns most enterprises."
How much did the socialists pay you to put this one on the test? Notice the extremely apologetic and even promotional tone of the question.
"Shrewd politicians speculate that people will stand in line longer at the polls to vote against somebody than they will voting for somebody."
So that's why the Democrats talk down very single thing the Republicans propose and do; build enough opposition against them, and you'll have people waiting half an hour at the polls just vote against the Republicans. Reality check Dr. Dean. Your 50 States Victory program will never work--not so long as Americans retain their ability to think for themselves.
"Because Burns had a strong sense of social justice, she protested over her party's failure to support a tax decrease for senior citizens"
Sounds like a blatant criticism of conservatism. I willing to bet you that the original sentence had "health care" instead of "a tax decrease," before a more level-headed editor made them take it out and replace it (either that or they're being sly through subtlety).
"Through the artful use of flattery, this fashion designer manags to overwork seamstresses, underpay models, and, most important, manipulates the tastes of buyers, both male and female."
Because we all know corporations are evil and advertisements are just brainwashing tools. What's wrong with praising your workers? An employer's lack of appreciation is why workers' unions start bitching in the first place.
"It is doubtful that economists ever meant to suggest that stock-market gains are a completely reliant index of the health of the economy."
OH NOEZ! IT'S T3H EV1L CORPORATIONS AGAIN!!!11oneoneone.

Sentence corrections:
"The President's personal adviser can exercise enormous power despite the fact of no election being held for the position."
BUSH IS A DICTATOR! HELP FIDEL CASTRO, SADDAM HUSSEIN, KIM JONG IL, AND JIANG ZEMIN AGAINST DICTATORSHIP!
"Althrough several groups were absolutely opposed to the outside support given the revolutionary government, other groups were as equal in their adamant approval of that support."
This test was written in the 70's. You make your own interpretation of this question.
"The filibuster on voting-rights legislation went on for three days and nights; senators slept when they could on benches in the hall."
It's the 70's. The Civil Rights Act is in full effect. Why are you still bitching about voting rights?
"Because the workers approached their jobs with very little interest and almost no energy, their productivity was, not surprisingly, very low."
More Union rambling. Americans have some of the best (maybe even the best) working conditions in the world. Workers take WAY too much for granted, so stop bitching.

And here's the clincher--question 90 on a 90-question test:
"Western civilization, often by questionable means, attempted to bring their version of progress to nonindustrial societies."
Because we all know that Western civilization is evil. Besides code of law, philosophy, chemistry, physics, modern medicine, sanitation, electricity, computers, and space travel, what has Western civilization contributed to the world? Yet another anti-Western anti-corporate hippie in charge of editing this test. Living conditions became a lot better AFTER industrialization and westernization than conditions before. This one really gets me worked up.

So far you've seen isolated examples from public schools, isolated examples from state-run exams, and examples from US History textbooks. Now you've seen this. If you're still not convinced there's indoctrination, then you my friend are completely brainwashed.

Combating Indoctrination

2005-07-30T21:08:00.000-07:00

I bet those were the two words many of you have waited to hear since I've started blogging. I'm taking a break from all the b*tching and moaning about the public school system to tell you how to actually factually refute half of what you hear. I know that I was helpless for a while, but the kind members of Protest Warrior (you should know them very well by now) have created a huge database and stored them on a forum called PWIC: Protest Warrior Imperial Committee.

Right when you enter the site , a sub-forum called "Ammunition" beckons to you. The administrators have even indexed a collection of their own posts within the forum, including a special thread dedicated to the small trivial factoids that don't deserve a thread of their own. Though the forum is small, inactive, and relatively new, it is filled with facts that will make a liberal cringe. I stronly suggest you check it out. If you can, register and pop in your own two cents. The forum is like a huge intellectual "Take a penny-leave a penny box." Like Wikipedia, anyone can contribute to it.

If PWIC isn't enough, the Protest Warrior Database should fill in the gaps that PWIC may or may not leave. Either way, both sites are extremely good resources when in a debate, typing a position paper, talking in a symposium, or even just in casual conversation. Cheers, and I hope you find them helpful.

Guilty as Charged

2005-07-28T14:58:00.000-07:00

I thought our liberal friends, the DC Liberals, were only after us. Apparently not. Based on what they did, I can assume that many conservative sites, or owners of sites, have fallen victim to the crusade of the DC Liberals. To state a recent example, a few days ago, they hijacked a site similar to ours, http://www.republicanvoices.com. The resulting site was this.

Still not convinced of liberal indoctrination? That site is all you need. Even if the superintendent and teacher signatures were bogus, the creation of the site itself tells us that the DC Liberals have come clean. They are indeed indoctrinating the kids. They never stated it would be liberal political indoctrination, but they said that everything they're teaching goes against conservative values. Essentially, not only are they imposing liberal political opinions, but they're imposing liberal morals and the liberal way of life as well. Essentially, the DC Liberals have committed what the American Bar Association calls admittance against interest. Thank you for fessing up.

OMFG

2005-07-21T20:03:00.000-07:00

As if political correctness hasn't done enough already. This is overkill:

The word "fail" should be banned from use in British classrooms and replaced with "deferred success" to avoid demoralizing pupils, says a group of teachers.

Members of the Professional Association of Teachers (PAT) argue that telling pupils they have failed can put them off learning for life.

A spokesman for the group said it wanted to avoid labeling children.
"We recognize that children do not necessarily achieve success first time," he said.

"But I recognize that we can't just strike a word from the dictionary," he said.

The PAT said it would debate the proposal at a conference next week.

How's it goin' fellow rednecks? I was in Europe for about a month, which explains the lack of updates. I'll be running a few articles based on the European experience soon, but here's some indoctrination for you. These questions come right out of my Spanish workbook (I won't reveal its name, lest I be sued by the school for defamation):

Translate into Spanish:
Does our president have world fame?
The supreme authority in this country is the President
Some treat their enemies severely and cruelly
The pen is more powerful than the sword
In our modern civilization, such a war should not occur
For political reasons the President lowered the taxes
The wounded soldier died instantly
The French lady spoke with dignity

Conservative or liberal, it's become a pet-peeve to see apolitical things become politicized. It just so happens that the liberals are doing the large majority of the politicizing. This polarizes America even more. Democrats are pushing for unity. Why don't they actually take measures to achieve it, and not destroy it? That's right. I'm talking to you Clinton. I have my eyes on you.

Public School Satire

2005-06-25T08:59:00.000-07:00

I was surfing the net when I came upon this (thanks Protest Warrior):
http://www.thepeoplescube.com/red/viewtopic.php?t=109
It's a satirical column with fake comments by various prominent national figures. Courtesy of the People's Cube: Correct Opinions for Progressive Liberals, brought to you by the Karl Marx Treatment Center. This article is what I've been wanting to write ever since I've become a conservative. It attacks the traits of the public schools I always attack, only it compiles everything to a short-medium-length column and adds a sick twist of humor to it. I think even liberals would know what this one is hinting at. If they're too clueless and lazy, sucks for them, since they obviously haven't realized that they're going too far.

Anyway, for linkophobes, here's the article

Schoolmates describe Joe as an impressionable 15-year-old New York kid with a heightened sense of social justice. So nobody was surprised at his yesterday's attempt to take his own life. "We live in the worst country of the world, ever!" says Joe's best friend Michael. "We kill, steal, enslave, and torture everybody! The ozone hole is growing and the rainforest is dwindling. If we don't suffocate and die of skin cancer by the age of thirty, global warming will finish us up anyway. The Western civilization did it, man. There's no point in anything anymore. When I come home from school I often want to kill myself too. I once tried to eat some deadly pills in my mom's medicine cabinet like I saw in a movie, but I couldn't read the labels."

Indeed, the rate of suicide among students is dropping, experts say, because schools are failing to teach children basic skills they may need later in life. Thus, student A. of the Bronx chewed on five jumbo lead pencils hoping it would give him deadly lead poisoning, but miserably failed to cause even cramps. Student B. of Staten Island gave up his suicidal plans after spending two hours figuring out how to spell "suicide" in a one-paragraph "sewieside" note. And yesterday, Joe failed to tie a noose on his rope.

Untreated depression and academic stress admittedly remain to be the leading causes in high school suicides. "I don't understand where the stress is coming from," says Schools Chancellor Joel I. Klein . "Our students are no longer required to do any homework; we've already stripped the curriculum of any frills. There's nothing left except social awareness programs. The students are being taught at an early age how to protect themselves from sexual molestation, pregnancy, AIDS, how to sue their abusive parents, and not be afraid to experiment with their same-sex friends. Everyone is prepared for puberty years in advance. So it's hardly school that causes stress and depression in our kids. I think we should take a closer look at their social environment, and where our country is headed under the Bush administration."

"Joe has a heart of gold," the boy's mother told our correspondent. "He once cried all night after the teacher told him that human activities have caused the extinction of tens of thousands of species. He refuses to celebrate Columbus Day because the man stole land from the poor Indians. He feels guilty just about everything - that he's white, male, heterosexual, and has an Anglo-Saxon name. He wanted to change his name to Wafa Idris, the first Palestinian female suicide bomber , but couldn't find Palestine on the map and gave up in frustration. If I supported his decision, maybe he'd have a little more confidence in life now. He's so inept."

"This kid is a dumbass!" complains Joe's father. "I'm busting my ass at the union picketing rallies all days, so I was hoping at least school would teach him something useful. But he can't even tie a noose! What kind of teachers are they anyway? Don't they have a union or something?"

"Blame the lack of funding," says teachers-union president Randi Weingarten. "The only source of stress in education that I can see is the lack of funding. We're not going to teach the kids anything unless there's enough funding.

"Only a heartless person would disagree that we need a safety net for future young adults like Joe, who can't do even basic tasks," a prominent New York Democratic Senator Chuck Shumer summed up Joe's suicide story. "We can't afford to eliminate any of the welfare programs. In fact, we need more! But how can we sustain a growing population of people like Joe, if Bush keeps cutting taxes? It's a humanitarian disaster of cosmic proportions waiting to happen."

But the future for Joe may not be so bleak, after all. "We admit students to Brooklyn College School of Education based on their sense of social justice rather than skills and intellect," says Professor Deborah Shanley. "Even if his grades aren't great, a conscientious student like Joe will easily beat selfish overachievers who care mostly about their own grades. It's a lesson of social justice for everyone involved. We believe that an education centered on social justice prepares the highest quality of teachers. Joe is perfect material for our program and we hope he will make an excellent teacher who will actively shape our social, cultural, and political future.

That's it for now. You're missing out on a lot if you don't go to the actual site. The comments and pictures are as hilarious as the article itself (well, save for one disturbing picture).

"Equality"

2005-06-23T07:05:00.000-07:00

I'm sure you've heard enough liberals B&M about the "lack of equality." They've already gone too far in the economic and social domains. Now their campaign for so-called equality infesting others areas, namely the educational domain. Many of you probably remember James Chang, the former staff member whose house got vandalized. Well, he's not coming back to RV, but his friend called me with a little anecdote of an occurrence at a neighboring school. He had plenty to rant about.

He was taking a test on physical science a week ago. In the section comparing physical and chemical changes, one question read, "A gas pumper accidentally spills some gas onto the ground and makes a puddle. You come back to the gas station the next day and notice that the gas puddle was gone without a trace. Is the disappearance a physical or chemical change?" Anyone who knows basic chemistry would immediately spot that this question is vague and open to interpretation. Well, James' friend answered chemical change. He was "wrong." The teacher said it was a physical change because the gas had evaporated completely. Technically, it could be chemical as well because the gas could have combusted (burned up). When he pointed this fact out to the teacher, the teacher replied, "well, we didn't learn that yet" and sent him back to his seat, giving him no points for that extra knowledge that "misled" him.

Un-freaking-believable. This is the first time I've seen somebody Punished for knowing more than the curriculum teaches. Not only is that a blatant chipping away at one's individual responsibility, but it's implicitly preaching that we should be 100% obedient to the government (teacher) and only know what it tells us we should know, or we'll face serious consequences. James' friend knew why the teacher didn't give him the point. He has had a history of knowing more than his peers on the subject of physical science. The teacher hates students like him--the type who strives to get good grades. She wants students to learn for the sake of learning, and not just to get good grades. While this is good intentioned, she fails to acknowledge that she teaches at a high school. Grades are the most important there if one expects to go to college. Somewhere along the road, she got corrupted into thinking that the root of the problem was the burgeoning prodigy population, and began to dislike them passionately. The reason for this intense prejudice is unknown.

The friend also knows that the teacher is a hardcore liberal committed to academic equality, and has been known for setting unreasonably low standards and massively inflating grades. On the midterm exam, the worst student in the class scored less than 50%, but the teacher gave her a D-, stating "I didn't let you fail." Couple this with taking away points from James' friend. That's what I call "redistributing wealth." That's right. Academia now has its own form of socialism. Since the smart and hard-working kids don't "need" the extra points, the higher they score, the more points they lose, and all those points taken away by force are redistributed evenly among the low scorers. Obviously the teacher doesn't know that this practice doesn't do anything good at all. If anything, it DISCOURAGES the more motivated kids from doing outside research and ENCOURAGES laziness among the low scorers, since they all know they have a cushion to fall back on should they f*ck up badly on a test. Does this promote learning for the sake of learning? Not at all. I seriously hope this does not become the universal practice in public schools. If it does, I seriously hope that the local, state, and federal governments reconsider their funding to the public education system.

School's out

2005-06-16T19:08:00.000-07:00

At least for me, thank god. It ended rather shittily though (pardon the cussing; it's part of un-PC). Took a US History exam, which was my last exam of the year. It wasn't that bad, though the essay question had a slight liberal partisan. "You're President Bush's advisor. He needs your advice on 'strong leadership in times of change.' Use past examples (e.g. Lincoln and FDR) to tell him what he needs to do." Still, I respect the teacher for actually giving us a question that requires critical and lateral thinking instead of fact-spewing.

In other news, a few anti-war students (the more prominent ones) were distributing an alarmingly racist cartoon. I myself read a copy that was posted as a flyer. It featured Bush as a chimp, though he actually spoke perfect English ;). That's nothing out of the ordinary. However, the portrayal of Condi was a blatant attempt at ruining Black Republicans' images. She was a stereotyped Jim Crow, only with a hairstyle and her teeth were buck teeth. As if that wasn't enough, she spoke in pidgin and every frame portrayed the White House as a plantation and her as a house slave. Even though I'm anti-PC, I won't stand for that shit. It was a blatantly racist attempt at defaming Blacks (especially conservatives). What did the administration do about it? Absolutely nothing. I guess it's "freedom of speech" only when liberals post these things up, right? Out of respect for school rules, "academic freedom," and my agenda of exposing liberal hate, I left the comic up to see how many people it would piss off. More on this tomorrow.

Coming out of the closet

2005-06-10T13:30:00.000-07:00

No, I'm not gay, though I would love to say I am just to piss a liberal off. Minority conservatives are liberals' worst enemies, since they're the ones who are quickest to see through liberal propaganda, and consider America to be great compared to the bulk of the world's countries. For the curious ones, the ones who are nitpicky about one's background, and to further piss off a liberal, I've made subtle hints before about my ethnicity, but in case you've missed out, I am not white. This shouldn't come as a surprise to you, as the number of minority--especially black, woman, and some hispanic--conservatives grows daily.

The race that is often left out of any and all liberal bitchings about affirmative action, which races associate with what groups, and whatnot, is the yellow race. This is because there are so few Asian concervatives. I know that Asiatics don't necessarily represent all of Asia, as southern, northern, and some southeastern Asians almost comprise separate races on their own. However, collectively, Asian conservatives make up very little of the US population. This puts me among the few and the proud (sorry Marines), as I haven't succumbed by my country's constant bashing of Western civilization.

After all of that, you're probably wondering which part of Asia I am from. The answer to that question is China. I am 100% Chinese, born in China back in its pre-capitalist stages. I am the son of a CCP and CP-USA member, and the grandson of a Red Dragon (CCP army) veteran. I've lived a humble life, and to this day, am still very lazy. I lived in the perfect liberal-breeding environment.

What makes me conservative? My mom's constant bushwhacking and praise of Mao Ze Dong. Even with full knowledge that Mao took the Chinese economy to sh*t, murdered her own family members, she still sees him as an almost sun god. Top that off with the fact that she thinks the Chinese peasentry knew what was best for the country. Granted there was much greed and much assh*lism on the Nationalist side, but at least they were educated. If I were thinking about a good present, I'd go with the peasentry, but a wise man once told me that Communists are either stuck in the future, or stuck in the present. Thinking realistically and planning ahead, I'd rather have Mr. Warlord (Chiang Kai-Shek [Chang Jie Shi]) run my country than Mr. Fake Bleeding Heart (Mao Ze Dong).

Reinforcing my conservative base is my hate for China. Though I'd be better off there socially, if I were to criticize the fake democracy (even constructively), mention the world "religion," much less practice one, especially Buddhism and Christianity, or praise Taiwan, I'd be round up, tortured, castrated, bled to death, truncated, publically hanged, and then cut into tiny little pieces and thrown in the directions of the wind. The last statement is exaggerationg, but you get the point. I love this country, because if I were to suddenly turn liberal again and spit on our soldiers and conservatives, I will have the full knowledge that such soldiers and such conservatives are constantly battling for my right to spit on them. The opposite can be said about most other countries in the world. Fortunately, another socialist changeover is not likely to happen.

Among the conservative readers, I hope this post doesn't change the way you look at me. Among the liberals, I hope I've at least clarified that anti-Americanism will win over few liberals, and that "the plan" keeping all minorities liberal is failing miserably. My core message to you is essentially "STFU," but if you really love this country, I'll give you a chance at professing that love. Please get out of your little propaganda bubbles and have a shot at my kind of tolerance.

Bigots from Kansas

2005-06-06T21:03:00.000-07:00

There's quite a bit to vent on the whole David Parker issue, especially about the way my town's been dealing with it. I've been reading all our letters to the editor on the issue, and further ones in response the rally. All of them boil down to "stop the homophobic agenda" and "anyone against gay marriage, or agrees with David Parker, is a bigot." Many of you will hate me when say this, but I am a champion of various gay rights, including adoption and, that's right, marriage.

I however, am in full agreement with Mr. Parker when he says he wishes to be notified if his SIX YEAROLD SON is to learn about homosexual and transgender families. Teaching homosexuality to the kids at such a young age would invariably prove that homosexuality is indeed a choice. And to borrow from our gracious webmaster, "if [you're a dude and] you choose an *ssh*l* over a vagina, you are f*cked in the head." From a liberal point of view, I can only see more hate for homosexuals result. From a conservative point of view, we'll step out our doors. The simple fact is that kids are too young to learn about love for the opposite sex, much less love for the same sex. I'm sure all of you (well, save for people beyond a certain generation) remember your cooties shots in first grade.

Then there's transgender. I didn't know what a penis was until fifth grade. Before then, it was always "peepee," "weewee," or "pointy thing." Call me close-minded, but if you don't start learning about your own reproductive organs until fifth grade, what gives the Gay Gestapo the right to teach you about someone else's reproductive organs (plurality emphasized) in FIRST grade? I can't think of an answer for that, and I can't even imagine WHAT is being said in that classroom, and WHAT the students walk away with.

Apparently this has penetrated deep into the school system. Gerard and I got into a conversation with a lady after the rally. While I perceived her as more an optimistic conspiracy theorist than anything else, she also was pretty knowledgable about public schools. She introduced us to a book called "The Dumbing Down of America," by an author whose name I can't recall. As Public School Battleline Correspondant, I will try my hardest to get a good copy of that book and read it. Otherwise, I definitely buy just about everything people say about the current state of the public school system.

Getting back to the Parker case, the administration was extremely irresponsible in the handling of this case. Not only did it take a long time to respond, but they got the Parkers' kid's age and grade wrong. If you also read the exchange of letters, you'll see that the administration frequently dodges the points and questions the Parkers make. This demonstrates one thing, and that is that the administration didn't even bother reading the Parkers' emails. And who gets shafted? David Parker.

I'm very sympathetic, and if I found myself in Mr. Parker's standoff with the administration and realized how much they're screwing me over, I'd have illegally obtained a firearm and gunned them all down. Fortunately, Mr. Parker only went as far as refusing to leave until a reasonable deal is reached. Since the public school system doesn't like conservatives, they decided to arrest, and later prosecute him for trespassing, and now he's banned from all Lexington schools. He's a relative newcomer to this state too. Welcome to Massachusetts Mr. Parker, because Massachusetts sure as hell doesn't welcome you (someone should tear down those signs at our state borders, since they're pure bullsh*t).

Just today, the issue permeated MY school system, since the rally was held in my town (keep googlin' me DC liberals. I hope you guys die doing it. My hacker friends still can't find any info on me). My first period English teacher, who I thought was very conservative, initiated a disicussion on Pre-Socratic philosophy. I loved that subject. But gradually we went on tangent after tangent, until we got onto a topic about faith and free speech. That's when she seized the opporutnity and asked us "do you think bigots from Kansas should be allowed to use our churches and public spaces to preach their views?" It was obvious what she was hinting at, and I became furious. I left the room to go to the bathroom, and when I came back, I'm glad that that discussion was closed ([un]fortunately, our whacked out foreign policy liberals still hated gay marriage, and that put her in her place).

Jesus Chr*st. It's one thing to tell your students what you think It's another to use such strong language to criticize a political wing. Granted, based on what Gerard told me, that rally used rather caustic language as well, but that event was political; the classroom is not. While David Parker and some of his "bigots from Kansas" did--in a moment of testosterone--disrupt some diversity rallies, like I said, even though I'm committed to balance, I'd have done much worse.

So the Gay Gestapo members can shove it. Go ahead and keep the GSA's, but keep your Little Black Books out of the hands of students, and keep your issues out of the elementary schools. minds are young, inquisitive, creative, and impressionable. We should be teaching them how to speak publically, how to debate, and how to think critically, not how to tolerate every single person and thing on this earth (except conservatives, of course).

P.S. For people in my local area, look for my letter to the editor on this issue in the near future. If it's not there, try the Opinion section. If not in either, it only shows how liberals deliberately censor the media to indoctrinate adults.

Something I had never noticed

2005-05-29T15:05:00.000-07:00

I just remembered something I saw last Friday. In our main building, there's a bulletin board with a world map. It had almost every language of the world tacked to its respective countries. Guess which one was missing? When I asked the administration why UK, Australia, US, and all those countries didn't have a language tacked to them, they simply replied that "...it would be disrespectful to other cultures in this country... ."

Simply acknowledging English as the official language of a few countries and the primary language of others, is not offensive to other cultures -- that is, unless the political correctness virus fused with the multiculturalism pathogen. What makes it different from the rest? Nothing. In fact, it's growing as a GLOBAL language, not just the language of Australia, UK, Canada, and US. Pardon me multiculturalists for the countries I forgot. My racist biggoted homophobic redneck mind is too stupid to remember every single English-speaking country in the world and their secondary languages. I made a plea to the Dean of Students, who is very close with me, and more than proud of being a native English-speaker. I looked at the board again the following Friday. I saw English branch out to many countries, but one country STILL didn't have a language tack. What country might that be?

I went to the administration again to complain. Again, they gave me the multiculturalist PC liberal reply that "the US has no language." Hmm. That explains why most of the internet (a US brainchild) is in ENGLISH, most people use ENGLISH to communicate, and why most GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS (education in general) are being taught in ENGLISH. This country's far more "melting pot" than it is "bowl of salad." Liberals, especially in the school administration, can't seem to accept that the large majority of people CHOOSE to assimilate (or at least part way) because there are "American" institutions that are simply more attractive, easier, and/or more suitable to a fast-paced life (e.g. fast food, status by merit, internet). At the same time, it unifies the country. What many multiculturalists don't realize is that their ideology can potentially lead to massive conflicts of cultural factions within the country. It saddens me that the nation's public schools are still teaching that multiculturalism is a good thing, endorsing it in every way possible, and forcing the students' young impressionable minds to accept it. Just to balance the anti-American, anti-Western, multiculturalist fervor, I really think Dinesh D'Souza's book What's So Great About America should be required reading.

One might argue that there are many districts have signs made in foreign languages (e.g. Chinatown, little Italy, etc), but go into the big cities and point out to me the signs in foreign languages. The only exceptions are the Spanish translations of ENGLISH signs, and even then, they're still supplements. However, my rant about elevating the Hispanics above everyone else is another rant.

Jin's birthday is 9/11/89, not 9/11/86. For those of you who were confused, I apologize. Another one goes to Jin for getting his birthday wrong.

Incidence at School

2005-05-24T18:17:00.000-07:00

I have a Chinese friend, named Jin to keep his identity confidential. A few years ago, he was a hardcore anarchist (or as my school terms, a "liberal"). In fact, he was so rowdy and his beliefs were so controversial, that the town didn't want him. They couldn't do anything about his beliefs, and his rowdiness wasn't bad enough to earn him an expulsion. Regardless, his family moved to upstate New York. Financially it wasn't too big of an adjustment for him, since his dad worked close to the New York-Massachusetts Border. That was the last I saw of him for some time.

I don't know what happened, but he came back to my school this year, and he was a new man. Upon hearing of his return, I had originally intended to bash his anarchist views. How little I knew. The first day I saw him back, he was wearing a Bush Country '04 shirt. That surprised me greatly, since he did plenty of Clinton bashing and even more Bush Sr. bashing when I las knew him. By the expression on my face, he knew I was curious about his conversion.

His story is also one of an instantaneous conversion. His birthday is 09/11/89. He loved the thought of bombing everything, but never had the heart or the hate to actually enact it. On his 15th birthday, he received a "special delivery" from Osama bin Laden. Two of America's and the world's most important fell to the ground after a few radicals did a kamikaze. The Pentagon was also in flames, and another plane was downed who knows where.

Jin HATED his birthday present. In fact, he hated it so much, it awakened his inner demon. He renounced all anarchist views and from that day became a patriot. Essentially, ever since the Day of Rememberance, he supported every action of little Quincy.

The following conversation between him and a moonbat transpired a few weeks ago. It took a long time for me to actually make sure I got everything down correctly. If you're not a fan of swears, this might not be for you, since this piece runs the profanity counter pretty high. I will do my best to self-censor, but completely excluding the swears takes the passion and emotion out of their argument. Red is my editing and comments.

[Jin walks into cafeteria wearing a "9/11 Mural found in Iraq" t-shirt]
Lib: You f*ckin' racist, get out of my country! [I have no idea how he made the connection between a 9/11 mural in Iraq and racism]
Jin: Racist?
Lib: You guys are just like the Jews, spreading your f*ckin' capitalist greed with all your faked success.
Jin: Oh so now the TEH INFIDEL JOOOOOS are in on this game. And I bet you think they're killing the blacks and Hispanics to achieve success?
Lib: Damn right, them and their racist policies.
Jin: Dude, catch up on your research. Jews and Asians were just as "historically oppressed" as the blacks and gays. [DAMN RIGHT. Gook and Kike are always excluded from the "equality talks" by liberals]
Lib: They seem to oppress all the minorities now.
Jin: Oppress the minorities? The Jews and Asians ARE minorities. Oh wait! I forgot that Jews and Asians are really Whites.
Lib: You're not a minority! You look white and you don't speak with an accent. [Gotta love the stereotyping]
[Jin grows firey angry]
Jin: Oh so all minorities have to be purebread speak with accents? What kind of f*ckin' stereotypes are you living by? Looks like you're not spreading too much tolerance. Who's the real racist here, me or you?
Lib: You,... and I want racists out of my country.
Jin: Your country? Last I checked this was public property, I'm a permanent resident of this here land, which I love --
Lib [interrupting]: You're foreigner. You have no rights and you have to love this country.
Jin [right after lib says "foreigner"]: and you're just an oridinary citizen. If the DHS tells me to leave, then I might consider it. Otherwise, I don't have to listen to a single [deleted] word you say.
Lib: Yea you --
Jin [interrupts]: And actually foreigners do have rights. Any rights delegated to by international law apply to us, and since I'm a permanent resident, I have the rights to free speech and to be safe from unreasonable searches and seizures. Should I be violated by corrupt authority, I have the right to call a lawyer. As long as I don't [mess] up big time with the government, I'm pretty safe from deportation. [Can't be sure if foreigners have free speech or security in self and possessions]
Lib [while Jin is tirading]: YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT A CITIZEN. THAT'S HOW [MESSED] UP OUR GOVERNMENT IS AND YOU'RE A TRAITOR TO YOUR RACE IF YOU STILL LIKE OUR GOVERNMENT'S POLICIES.
Jin: Oh, so now all minorities have to be liberals? Who's the racist now? I love your thinking. You know what? You have more rights than I do, and I suggest that you excercise your Miranda-given right to remain silent, and shut the fuck up.
[Jin walks to a table and sits with his friends]
[Lib initially pursues Jin, but sees Jin's friends and gives up]

Moving to Blogger

2005-05-22T23:11:00.000-07:00

We have moved the blog to Blogger hosting. This is why you see the new look and lack of old posts. You will now be able to post comments. Tomorrow, the old posts will be linked to here as the blog archive. Enjoy!

Co-Blogging

2005-05-22T22:19:00.000-07:00

Republican Voices readers should finally be seeing a change in the lack of blog posts on 'Indoctrination Center Ahead' as I have invited Mike DuBois, our Public School Battleline Correspondent, to co-blog with me. Here you will read more and more about how liberal indoctrination is dominating the public education system, stories of converting liberals, and more. We hope you enjoy.

Hello from a New Redneck

2005-05-22T17:50:00.000-07:00

Hello my fellow rednecks, bigots, fascists, nazis, homophobes, and wingnuts. This is Mike "A.Z.N" DuBois, Republican Voices' resident Public School Battleline Correspondant. Our gracious Editor-in-Chief has invited me to join his movement of the conservative counterculture of public school children. I will work as hard as I can to get more updates to the indoctrination center.

For those who were here from the beginning and for those of you who were here for the express purpose of using this site to cite examples of indoctrination, you will not be disappointed. Like Emil, I am a firsthand victim of the public education. Since embracing conservatism, I have noticed more and more indoctrination every day, and have seen the oppression of the conservative minority. It saddens me greatly to see the anti-Americanism and the oppressiveness of our nation's government schools. I see the students as victims of liberal bias in education, and I feel sorry for them. Adults have taken advantage of their impressionable minds to push their own personal agenda.

Help Emil and I in our journies to expose the unprofessionalism in our public schools, and join me in my quest to convert and heal the victims of the left. Over the next few months, I will be pumping out real life examples of liberal oppression with unflinching commentary, introducing new converts to the right, and updating you on the toils of old converts. The RV staff and I are proud to be part of the vast rightwing conspiracy, and I hope you as the reader will stand beside us as we continue our attacks against the radical left.
