Do everything you can to get rid of Common Core.

The idea of having a common universal curriculum makes sense, but some of the sh¡t they put into it is mind blowingly stupid. It's like they're TRYING to teach meaningless things. Whoever got put in charge of it must have slept their way there.

That if you complain enough, call learning liberal, and blame the president, you can basically never learn anything or do a lick of work..
Most people don't even grasp for instance that the third example is how to guess on standardized tests. Take ten minutes and checkout the many math questions on this site which deal with multiple choice and you'll see children who have never learned to even rule out absurdly wrong answers.

Like all new teaching methods, it is an experiment with the kids and more than likely they will find that they were wrong. It has nothing to do with communism. That is just idiotic.

The title alone makes it sound like the precepts to a cult.

They also teach and install fear, the left are always using scare tactics so when the children become adults they expect the government to take care of them.
Children can't deal or learn to deal with bullies, here comes the teacher. But when you get robbed there is no cop insight and your gun has been removed.
So to answer your question yes confusion and misinformation is the basis of any left wing agenda.
