re: #137 WhatEVs

I am stunned by those Twitter exchanges. Have we really become that fucking stupid as a nation? Don’t they teach science any longer. I mean, sure, I am 55 and all, but they taught us this shit when I was a kid.

I’m at a loss.

Home schooling? Creationism in classrooms? Pushing religion into science texts (affecting curricula for not just local yokels, but nationally as publishers will take some books and use them nationally). Etc.

The creationists and right wing are going to send us kicking and screaming back generations.
