re: #95 Brother Holy Cruise Missile of Mild Acceptance
That’s a feature of the right wing. IIRC there was even a push on the right to eliminate education curricula that stressed critical thinking. They live in a world of “America, Fuck Yeah!” and that’s it.
It’s official: Texas GOP bans critical thinking
“Knowledge-Based Education - We oppose the teaching of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) (values clarification), critical thinking skills and similar programs that are simply a relabeling of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) (mastery learning) which focus on behavior modification and have the purpose of challenging the student’s fixed beliefs and undermining parental authority.”
