Exactly what is in the curriculum you find objectionable? I often hear its 'woke' so its bad. Woke is a word people hide behind when being ugly to others. American history has been told through the white mans perspective for 250 years. Why is another perspective so objectionable? Women, blacks, browns, jews, gays & trans all have their stories to tell and place in America. Dont be a snowflake. History cant hurt you, unless you refuse to learn from it.

Commented on Post Truth. What is it and what is it impact?What you fail to realize is that the school is full of gay kids. What, you think they magically appear out of nowhere? Even Dick Cheney has a gay kid.

They are trying to force this propaganda down from the top. The far left state Board of Education put out a radical Social Studies curriculum that was strenuously objected to at the time. The bureaucrats at NCDPI then found this radical SAVVAS curriculum that matched and are pushing it down to counties.
At the county level, school superintendants whose career path is to move to larger systems and feel they need to have good relationships with the education esbablishment, then fall all over themselves to push this propaganda at the county level. They use those staff at the local central office who are also looking to climb the ladder to assist in pushing it. The education establihment from the state BOE down to the local central office staff is all stacked for "woke" and aagainst parents. For some it is ideological and for others career-based of kissing the right ass but it is still anti-parent and anti-stueent when the rubber meets the road. The only group who is in a position to stand up for parents and students and stop this political indoctrination in our schhols is the elected school boards. The unfortunate thing is that too many of them incorrectly see the superintendant as their boss, when in reality he is their employees. Any school board member who stands with the ideologues in the education establsihment and against parents and students in child indoctrination needs to be turned out of office at the next opportunity. The voters have the ultimate say.

Just in case anyone can not get to the info written in this very factual article from the Beaufort Observer Team, I will repost this link.
blog.savvas.com It seems at least when I hit the link in the article it goes to a blank page. Someone probably not wanting this important information shared.

The problem is that the globalists have a War on Meat going on, and are pushing draconian regulations in places like Denmark and Germany and already have in Sri Lanka to reduce meat production, and they want us to eat bugs as a replacement. That is nonsense and we need to throw off the globalist yoke of tyranny.

SAVVAS was rejected in Florida's education department for being too woke. Even SAVVAS' math books had CRT / DEI injected into them. North Carolina's State Board of Education is dominated by leftwing appointees of Roy Cooper. The conservative minority on the state BOE, led by black conservative Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson, fought this garbage but were outvoted. So anything pushed by NCDPI is going to be "woke".
Our school board should defend the children of Beaufort County from this leftwing political indoctrination by doing what Florida did and reject SAVVAS and their left wing poison.

No one is going to make you eat bugs J. It works like this, you eat what you can afford to pay for, hunt or catch. If it gets so hot the food you normally eat is no longer available, you will eat whatever you can get. Including a bug. The only good thing about climate change is that the rich elites are gonna burn too.

The asylum system is broken and needs to be severely tighened up both in Europe and in America. It is being severely abused by economic migrants who try to pass themselves off as refugees and claim asylum. This is the immigration reform that is most needed. Border walls and good border security is also essential. Anyone crossing illegal should be subject to being shot on sight.

These Biden document stories are getting more far fetched.
Finding documents in Walmart tells me these are being planted. Conservatives are going to have much to atone for soon. These accusations are just bull crap. The Bidens are not stupid and know security cameras are in all public stores.

Commented on Post Truth. What is it and what is it impact?People of all beliefs should love one another but that does not give a person the right to push their beliefs on others in our schools or anywhere else.
Our children should worry about being children not adult madness. Live and and let live for it is God who is in control in; our faith in our higher self, in our personal relationship with the higher power, I believe. "Love is the answer and you know that for sure." QUOTE John Lennon

We are also a representative republic elected by the democratic process, which is prescribed by the US Constitution, and ultimately we are Constitutional Republic.
Mamacat, I thank-you for bringing this to everyone's knowledge. I, too, cringe when I hear others describe our Republic as a Democracy, which we are only by the election our "representatives".

Corporate medicine always sides with the left. Their Obamacare MEdicaid expansion would draw the majority of its participants from people who already have employer-provided medicial insurance and forcibly move them to the government dole. ECU Health is the employer of State Rep. Tim Reeder (RINO-Pitt) so this gives him a massive conflict of interest in participating in this vote. Will he have the integrity to recuse himself???

I hesitate to poke fun at the lemmings who foloow the establishment's narrative right over the cliff without even considering it might be wrong. Calling those who have concerns about experimental vaccines based on a brand new technology never used before and not thoroughly tested are a great deal different than the anti-vaxxers who refuse to take any vaccines for any illness. Indeed it was mentioned on the radio today about a town in California that was the opposite, the most heavily vassed in the state by percentage on Covid, yet with a long history of anti-vax positions against other illnesses.
The questions swirling around the Covid vax centers on those using mRNA technology. These are the ones with the severe side effects, although for women of a certain age, the traditional vax Johnson and Johnson can have some milder side efferts. The inventer of the mRNA technology even warned about putting that in use so quickly without adequate testing. It is interesting that Taiwan, which counts only deaths FROM Covid in its stats, not deaths WITH Covid, had slightly more people who died from the vaccine than died from Covid. As for myself, I get the flu shot every years and am up to date on traditional vaccines, and I drove an hour each way to get the Johnson and Johnson Covid vax, but I would not ever take one of the mRNA Covid vaxxs. You lemmings can feel free to march off the cliff with that one.

I hesitate to poke the sanity of the anti vax crowd but you are simply wrong. The notion that vaccines are bad for you is ridiculous. Are they perfect? No. Are there side effects? Yes. Can you die from getting vaccinated? In rare cases probably? However when you compare the effects of the vaccine to the disease, there is no comparison. The first year of the pandemic scared everybody. But we responded and life goes on.

This is as close as we can get right now.
It may be possible to dig deeper in the future as time passes and the flow of the internet matriculates. We have the IP address, and we can discover a powerful reverse IP finder, we might get closer to an address. Case in point, if someone wanted to find me, because of my presence on the internet, they could find me in a matter of minutes.
