The modern democratic party has adopted the positions of 2005 republicans. They might as well adopt the personnel of 2005 republicans too.

They are advocating for defunding public education and setting up private religious charter schools?

[–] Krono -4 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Well this is a bit outside of our scope, since most of the education defunding was done pre-2005 under Reagan and Clinton.

But yea, democrats have failed to re-fund public education. Our schools look like prisons and our teachers are paid like slaves, and you can see it in our failing test scores.

Do you have a specific example? Just one?

[–] TheFonz@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

So... No examples. Got it.

Specifics, man. Do you understand what that means?
