The Director of the CDC says K-12 schools should open this fall.— 🇺🇸AnthemRespect🇺🇸 (@AnthemRespect) July 31, 2020
It’s in the public health best interest to open schools.
It’s not “public health vs. the economy”,
it’s “public health vs. public health”.
Case closed, open the schools.

People are so gripped by fear that they cant understand the long term ramifications of keeping schools closed will far outweigh and damage our kids forever beyond the risk of covid19. https://t.co/9H46TKm05x— 17IdeaOfInfo17 (@dittoditto1111) August 4, 2020

Listen to this teacher's long laundry list of demands. And I want to point out if ALL OF THESE TEACHERS can gather en masse like this, then they can go back to schools and teach children.— Global Awareness 101 (@Mononoke__Hime) August 4, 2020
Public school system should be dismantled. Let parents choose what schools kids will attend
Any teacher that doesn’t want re-open schools should immediately be fired and replaced with teachers who want to work.— Art TakingBack 🇺🇸 (@ArtValley818_) August 5, 2020
Ruptly published August 3, 2020: USA: Protesters march against reopening of schools in NYC. A crowd of protesters took to the streets of New York's Manhattan district on Monday, against proposed plans to reopen schools in autumn.
Demonstrators, including students, parents and teachers, marched with banners and mock coffins and body bags, from United Federation of Teachers Headquarters to the Department of Education offices.
Disgusting. → Powerful liberal teachers unions are holding kids hostage to the far-left's lunatic agenda.— Steve Scalise (@SteveScalise) August 4, 2020
Their re-opening demands?
- Defund the police
- Abolish charter schools
- Cancel rents and mortgages
This isn’t about safety for them. It’s political extortion.
The greatest service the teachers' unions have done this year is showing millions of American parents how deeply partisan, hysterical, lazy, and thuggish they are. https://t.co/sATl8aiYUA— Buck Sexton (@BuckSexton) August 5, 2020

They get an A+ for creativity.
Teachers brought along visual aids, including handmade coffins and a guillotine, while protesting Mayor Bill de Blasio’s schools reopening plan in Lower Manhattan on Monday afternoon.
About 200 protesters — many of them educators, parents and students — marched from the United Federation of Teachers headquarters to the NYC Department of Education offices near Foley Square.
“We demand safe schools,” they chanted.
The crafty group lugged a DIY yellow guillotine, with “DOE” painted on the blade and “US” written where the head would go.
They also carried at least two boxes designed to look like coffins, with black cloth draped over them, and three handmade body bags.
“Children cannot focus on schoolwork if their family members or teachers are in the hospital or dying,” said Frankie Cook, a kindergarten teacher at PS 261 in Brooklyn.
“Children cannot learn if they’re dead.”
The protesters were up in arms about the mayor’s plan for a partial reopening of the country’s biggest school system amid the coronavirus pandemic, asserting that the current model does not go far enough in terms of safety or logistical specificity.
“Hey hey, ho ho, Bill de Blasio has got to go!,” the group roared.
Under Hizzoner’s plan, “Schools will be like prisons,” said Cook, adding, “Teachers’ main focus will be on enforcing health and safety because one slip could cause someone their lives.”
Anthony Bautista-Ramil, a Brooklyn educator whose colleague Kimarlee Nguyen died of COVID-19 in May, added, “The plan does not prioritize safety.”
The mayor has vowed to reopen schools in September as long as city coronavirus infection rates remain below 3 percent, and City Hall has rolled out broad safety protocols for the upcoming year.
City Hall’s model will encourage, but not require, teachers to get tested just before the September start of the school year and will provide expedited testing and results for them at 34 centers.
But the United Federation of Teachers has pushed back and called for more stringent safety measures, including mandatory random testing throughout the year to guard against exposures.
The mayor defended the plan on Monday, claiming, “It’s all about health and safety first.”
👇 VERY INTERESTING THREAD 👇

This is a screenshot of people saying 2+2=5. You read that right...2+2=5.
Among them are teachers, educators, and professors who plan on teaching this stuff to your children. So let's talk about what's going on here, why they're doing this, and how we can stop it.
A thread: pic.twitter.com/3CY2IcsahY
2/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
To start, lets look at EXACTLY what they say as how they argue here is VERY important.
They don't say 2+2=4 is FALSE. They don't say 2+2 always equals 5. What they say is:
A. 2+2 can sometimes equal 5, And
B. That 2+2 doesn't always equal 4.
Please read that again carefully
3/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
Please notice the woke are NOT arguing that 2+2 always equals 5, nor do they argue that 2+2 never equals 4.
The woke think there is no universally correct answer to 2+2 that is objectively true in all situations.
They aren't FALSIFYING 2+2=4, they are DECONSTRUCTING it.
4/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
How does deconstruction work?
Deconstruction works by attacking at the level of MEANING. This means that words, ideas, concepts, discourses, art, texts, symbols; whatever is used to MEAN something or communicate gets deconstructed.
Thus deconstruction "destabilizes meaning."
5/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
Wokies destabilize meaning because when a things meaning is not stable, clear, and defined the meaning of the thing can be redefined and distorted. Then people can come to any conclusion they want about it. Here are examples from art, architecture and international relations: pic.twitter.com/GAS01tNETU

Woke people think racism, sexism, and bigotry are baked into the language and concepts we use. Since we think and communicate with language, if the language we use is inherently racist and sexist then our communication, and the ideas we communicate will be racist and sexist...

This is Dr. Rochelle Gutierrez.
She thinks math teachers need political knowledge (She thinks math is political), not just knowledge of teaching Math.
And she created a type of math where Humans are no longer-centered.
What she teaches her students is as follows... pic.twitter.com/GCMpz9htez
9/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
Her paper (which has as its keywords diversity and equity) begins with her quoting Dr. Kimmerer, who states that science and traditional knowledge can come together by listening to plants.
I feel the need to state that this is, in fact, a real published academic paper. pic.twitter.com/mjLwa3oVOA
10/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
Dr. Gutierrez also says the idea math can solve anything is a fallacy. She asks why math:
1. values logic over intuition and asks student to use logic instead of intuition, and
2. teaches people to critique reasoning rather then just appreciate it various reasoning attempts. pic.twitter.com/Jg2CX3LEkD
11/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
The answer to 1 and 2 above appears to simply be "because it is math.
She then suggests that rather then learning "dominant math" students might instead go outside the learn to appreciate the patterns in bird songs.
Again. I must stress that this is in fact a real paper. pic.twitter.com/5JrPD1vR29
12/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
Dr. Gutierrez also thinks it is important to ask the students to consider how various forms of problem solving bring joy. Before finally bringing us to her big point... pic.twitter.com/hCZpllHluZ
13/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
Dr. Gutierrez states directly that she is not trying to get closer to truth.
This is a stunning admission. This woman is a tenured professor of education at The University of Illinois and she comes right out at says that she is not trying to find truth. pic.twitter.com/G2iXPXZeh6
14/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
This "I don't care about truth" view is common in social justice circles. For example, Kevin Bird @itsbirdemic (who mocked @conceptualjames and his followers for pushing back at people saying 2+2=5) admits here that he doesn't care about what the truth is when he does science pic.twitter.com/ewsBltKElf
15/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
Let's tie it all together now:
1. The woke attack the meaning of ideas via deconstruction to dissolve them
2. They think racism/ white supremacy is built into every area of western civilization
3. They are not concerned with truth.
So it should be no surprise that:
16/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
Dr. Gutierrez thinks that math has been controlled by global white supremacy. So every area of mathematics might come to the conclusions it does because of white supremacy. So even 2+2=4 might be racist or the result of western imperialism. Some even say that directly. pic.twitter.com/gthX3c0WFF
17/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
So this is where we are.
So what to do?
1. Push back with clarity. Know your stuff, don't get flustered.
2. Go to school board meetings and just say "no." SJW's show up, you have to as well
3. Learn and educate people.
And finally, you have to speak up.
18/— Wokal Distance (@wokal_distance) August 4, 2020
The time of fear is over, the time has come to boldly call this out in the clear understanding that we are looking for truth. We will not be cowed by accusations of racism, nor will we be brought to heel by social shaming. Call it out, truth is on your side.

Republican Governor Kristi Noem chose not to lockdown South Dakota state.— Global Awareness 101 (@Mononoke__Hime) August 3, 2020
South Dakota has 135 Covid19 deaths since outbreak began.
Governor Noem also allowed hydroxychloroquine to treat patients infected with Covid19. Reason for low death count.
