No, I don’t know that…
HARRIS: This is the thing. We know we are actually fighting for our democracy. And unlike Donald Trump I don’t believe people who disagree with me are the enemy.
Trump: “These are horrible people. Oops, we should get along with everybody. They’re horrible people. Some people you just can’t get along with.”
If I’m going to choose candidates based on their own words, then Trump can go fuck himself and Harris seems pretty presidential.
Probably shouldn’t vote for him, then…
Trump will fucking destroy Gaza and Palestinians. Quit being fucking stupid (or a troll) and vote for Harris or you end up with Trump.
you can’t provide a link
Again, you’re being obtuse. I chose not to provide a link. I’m not going to do all of the work for you. The information is readily available; you just have to remove your head from your ass and look at it.
i am speaking from experience working in a large, k-12 [public] environment
Can you be more specific? Do you have a degree in education? What kind of work were you performing? What grade(s)? How long ago? Are you still there?
i am speaking from experience working in a large, k-12 [public] environment and watching brand new teachers discuss their degrees, and their pay.
Brand new teachers start at the bottom of the salary ladder and typically have a Bachelor’s in Education. They then have to do continuing education and frequently end up with their Master’s.
Why are you referring to ‘teachers’ as if to speak about all of them if what you really meant was those who just graduated? Even then, why are you generalizing and dinging all teachers when there also some very brilliant first year teachers and many who are adequate/good, too?
you barely need a degree to be a teacher in the united states
In most cases of actual teachers in the government run, public school setting, who were trained as teachers, they end up having to get a Masters degree and additional continuing education for as long as they remain a teacher. However, they are desperately under-paid and under-supported.
Once you get into private schools, especially those that are run by churches, all bets are off. This is just one of the many reasons that not even a single dollar of taxpayer money should be going to charter/private schools.
You also have stupid places that let anyone with some random skill teach with the belief they have the capacity to be a teacher and that’s just not true. Teaching is actually a very specialized skill that most people simply don’t have. You can be a brilliant mathematician and a horrible teacher. You may be the world’s best welder (with all of the requisite knowledge of metallurgy, engineering, safety, etc.) and be a horrible teacher.
If you’re going to bad-mouth teachers, then please be more specific than just a lazy trope. Another urban legend that needs to go away is the idea that teachers only work 9 months out of the year.
No, I’m just not willing to play your stupid fucking game where you make me do all of the work while you sit around and chuckle to yourself that you’re such an edgelord. There is nothing I quoted there that isn’t readily available with 1 minute of your effort on Google. The only thing you have proven is that you don’t care about the truth.
How about nothing? Why do we need to indoctrinate children with any kind of this bullshit?
Can’t help you if you are dead set against learning… good luck in life.
You need to step out of your echo chamber once in a while… whether you want to blame the pandemic or Trump, Biden received a steaming pile of shit and the general consensus from all objective analysts, regardless of party, is that the Biden administration has done an admirable job under very difficult circumstances.
Please, support whoever deserves your support, but do not base it on the rumor mill. Please look at real, actual facts and then make an educated decision instead of an emotional decision.
10-OCT
The annual inflation rate was 0.1 percentage point lower than August and is the lowest since February 2021.
This means that inflation is now lower under Biden than under Trump.
The Hill (notoriously conservative) - 17-SEP-2024
It’s official: America’s real wages are up under Biden-Harris
Separately:
In August 2024, inflation amounted to 2.5 percent, while wages grew by 4.6 percent. The inflation rate has not exceeded the rate of wage growth since January 2023.
The issue this year, without a doubt, is the economy again
The economy is actually in much better condition, now.
You can tell the article was written by a man because it pretends abortion rights aren’t the elephant in the room.
I’m not going to give serious time to non-serious questions. You’re going to have to at least show you tried to think of how this could be manipulative. If you’re going to consider yourself a rational thinker, then you’re also going to have to agree that more context should be there regardless of whether it changes the message. Any time there is a hint of manipulation (such as trimming down to sound-bites), you should push back.
I would also ask what HRC has to do with anything? She’s not running for office. I get posting Harris and Walz together, but to throw in HRC is simply intellectually dishonest.
Can you please post the full clips of those clips with their full context? It’s hard to make any kind of informed judgement from a manipulated soundbite.
You’re so close to getting it… who do you suppose will be pursued for the money? If you have more of the ‘who’, that will encourage faster/greater enshitification as a natural part of the pursuit.
Why do we want to? They’ll just lower the overall quality and bring on the enshitification.
Sounds like she has useful skills. I’ll vote for her.
