Racism or Communism?

 One of the lessons to illustrate communism in school went something like this:  So, you work really hard and get an A.  That other person slacks off and gets an F.  So I’m going to give everyone a C.  Usually the student response is ‘that’s not fair’, especially from the students who work hard to get A’s so they can get into better schools, etc.

Well, schools in Boston are going to suspend advanced classes because the students in them are primarily white or asian.  So the stated reason is racisim.  Of course the problem is much deeper than that because they’ve done what they can to take race out as a factor.

What they are doing is denying classes to students with advanced abilities.  So communism because everyone must be equal.  The excuse they are using is racism.

Idiocracy was not meant to be an instructional video.

  2. If the school can't get black students into these classes and black students are equal to whites and asians, then the only logical conclusion is that the teachers and the school administrators are racist. Across the board firings is the only common sense solution.
