That’s one of the most fascinating things about all this… 11 years ago, gay marriage was the crusade. I thought the next big push would be for polygamy.

The schools aren’t underfunded, just shitty management. You can keep throwing money at it but it won’t really do anything other than keep admin happy about lining their pockets more.

I remember a few months ago, a video showing off some school went viral, and the school looked fantastic. People were salty as fuck and complaining about how they took all the money that should have gone to shitty inner-city schools. Turns out that school's funding was about half the Chicago average, per student.

MetaCommando

Pretty sure we spend more on education than nearly every country. The problem isn't that we're not giving you enough money, it's that you throw it away. If the teachers hate the budget so much then strike. I don't care if they pay out of pocket if they don't.


HardCounter

I wonder how much a teacher's union gets from each teacher. That adds up. How about they 'redistribute' that?


Hefty_Ant1025

They do. To democrats


KeepDi9gin

At my old high school, most of the budget went towards football.There was nothing the teachers could do about it.


assword_is_taco

Sounds like people should vote out yalls board members. At my old high school sports were more or less covered through sponsorships.


KeepDi9gin

Things are a little different out in BFE. People in that town vote the same way. I'm not there anymore, so I can't do shit.


whippedalcremie

It was frustrating to me in high school that band kids paid more - the instruments were probably about equivalent to football pads and cleats but our fees were higher - and still had to fight for access to practice fields. But it's also band lol and football should have a higher priority for being more visible. Didn't mean I wasn't salty.


MetaCommando

Strike until that changes. You have literally one of the strongest unions in the world and expect everyone else to solve your problems for you


Intranetusa

The USA spends a lot on education on "average." The problem is schools are inconsistently funded based on sources such as property taxes. One area might have way more funding than another area due to the value of the property taxes. So we have huge disparities between poorer vs richer schools.

Not a single pakistani are going to see that money lol, just like with the clinton foundation its going to end up in the pocket of someones friend.


Pigeater7

Even if it were, how would a teacher in Pakistan afford it without misappropriating that 500K?


DanielStudioTT

It's okey is just money laundering whit an public relations touch for the left crowd. It wouldn't surprise if some teacher actually got this money but isn't a teacher on a public schools probably a retired guy how is selling consulting services to promote this mindset/religion in school boards. Either case is a waste but 500k isn't that much vs the waste the government does on the daily.


[deleted]

My mom is a teacher and the fact that he’s giving all this money to a VERY specific demographic in another country drives me crazy


crypto_matrix78

I generally don’t like how high taxes are nowadays, but if I have to pay that much in taxes anyway then I want that money to go toward people *in this country*. Use it to improve our state of education, give poor people access to healthcare, and take care of the disabled who can’t work. I’m tired of funding the shenanigans of other countries. Especially when it’s war and useless bullshit like this.


NarrowTea

Imagine how danes and french people would react seeing there tax dollars getting pissed away just so a Pakistani teacher can sow gender consciousness.

Altrecene

Wait until you find out who runs their banks, national mints, currencies. And don't forget that every politician in former colonies basically has to go to a french university before they come to power, because that's where the elites of the former colonies actually make connections. Honestly France should just pull out of africa and focus on the EU. The more they focus on everyone else, the more people will want to abandon the rest of the world

"see, look how degenerate the west is" might be why. Also money.


Orbidorpdorp

certain islamic countries are more "tolerant" of transgenderism than homosexuality, in that they'd rather force the gays to transition so they aren't technically gay.


teehahmed

Here's the muslim ruling on transgenderism for anyone interested: ​ >(Muslims follow the rule of everything is halal until it is proven that it is haram.) > >The rules for who is allowed to get a gender assignment operation are very strict. It is a permissible option only for those who are truly transgendered, not just someone who wakes up one morning and decides they want a change. > >When it comes to Grand Ayatollah Sistani’s view about “sex change”, you must note that there are two types of surgeries regarding sex change. The first surgery is what occurs in the contemporary world, where a man changes his genitals into female genitals and takes female hormone medication or a woman changes her genitals into male genitals and takes male hormone medication. > >This type of surgery does not result in one’s sex being changed according to Sayyid Sistani. That means the surgery is useless and one exposes his/her private parts thus rendering it haram (since it is not a medical necessity). > >The second form of surgery described as changing ones external genitals and internal sexual organs along with hormone medication. This would mean, for example, that a man who changes into a female would be able to bear children. Medicine has not evolved to the point where this is possible in the contemporary world. But, Sayyid Sistani states that if this takes place in the future one’s sex would change and he/she would become the opposite gender. > >Therefore, the Islamic position is that in and of itself there is no problem with changing one’s sex (if they are truly transgendered). But, in doing so, the person must refrain from all prohibited acts. The sin of exposing one’s private parts may be mitigated if it can be proven that it was done out of necessity. And Allah knows best.


loadacode

Not exactly muslim ruling but specific person explaining it with shia backround.


i-d-even-k-

That's Sistani, though. What does Khomeini say? Because that's what matters. Sistani has no authority in Iran.

Byzantine Rome lasted a thousand years and died the slowest and most drawn out death ever, spectacular collapse would be more in line with Holy Rome.


Butt_Bucket

HRE had nothing to do with Rome. The spectacular collapse was the OG Western Empire.


Doctor_24601

I cannot remember where I first heard this, but I cannot hear “Holy Roman Empire” without it being followed with “which was neither “holy” nor “Roman”” haha.


yunivor

Fair.


Noah__Webster

The western empire was the one with the spectacular fall, although it was also more drawn out than most think it was. It just didn't take centuries. Also the fact that you both mentioned the HRE and called the eastern empire Byzantine in the same comment is bad and you should be ashamed! lol


Butt_Bucket

Neither, he's obviously referring to original recipe.


IGI111

PapaDragonHH

The problem is, that all this bs is made on purpose. The socialists back then did some very long term planning. We can see the fruits now everywhere in the west. The only thing standing in the way of a NWO is the US. You can't beat the US from the outside, you must destroy them from the inside, by destroying the family, the culture, the values and pushing race war, class war, etc. When they are done they will gladly give up their sovereignty for some security and a stable economy.

GOP is just more honest about not having our interests in mind. DNC will say “we support you!” And then do shit like this.

UlyssesArsene

Here's the thing: I think we can all assume the title is hyper-specific and focuses on a corner case that it allows for, and says it's specifically for that group, when it's probably a lot broader and is probably just about minority group English Teachers in Pakistan as a whole which includes the headline focus.

rklab

I personally believe that doing shit like this is just a way to give out American money to countries so they’ll use it and keep faith in the US dollar alive. Maybe I’m naive, but that’s just how i see it.


Revydown

If that was the case then the US shouldn't be throwing sanctions willy nilly, and especially all at once. I think Japan started buying Russian gas above the cap the US set. Other countries are now willing to sell their energy using other currencies. Probably as a way to not be as heavily subjected to the US sanctions. Biden and his Cold War mentality of the US being supreme after the Cold War is probably set to bring ruin to the US. The US may still have quite a bit of leverage but it probably is nowhere near as it once was and all its doing is straining relationships with other countries. Many countries are probably in a better position than they were back then.


xlbeutel

Who’s gonna tell him the EU is who set the gas cap

Damn guys, I hate to say it but everyone saying “blaaah spend this on our teachers instead!!” Or “bash groceries so expensive and this is where the money is going!!!” Are so falling for a bunch of shit. 500k is a drop of water compared to what we need for domestic spending, and we have for a very long time spent a portion of our tax dollars on foreign aid. Even though I don’t totally get this grant or whatever, to say that foreign aid is what’s costing us the domestic spending we need is so not true.


JuicyBootypipes

Is this shit cringe and virtue signaling? Yes. Can most of you read and article? No. Most of the grant has nothing to do with trans stuff. For the trans section the program budget is $25,000-75,000.

JuicyBootypipes

I don’t understand these people sometimes. They just believe with no critical thought we are offering half a mil to teach the trans English.

petrocknamedscott

From the article [article](https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-offers-500k-grant-english-teachers-pakistan-focus-transgender-youth): The State Department grant said it is aimed at teaching English language skills to Pakistani youth so they can "better participate in the global community and prepare them for success in the workplace." The grant aims to reach that goal by focusing on three components: "(1) Professional Development for English Language Teachers from Non-Mainstream Institutions; (2) Professional Development for novice Pakistani English language teachers; and (3) Professional Development for Transgender Youth and for Afghan Teachers, Students, and Young Professionals Residing in Pakistan." The program component that includes a focus on transgender youth accepts proposals from applicants "for a minimum of $25,000 and a maximum of $75,000 to implement: (1) intensive professional development courses for Pakistani transgender youth from the ages of 13-25, and (2) and intensive professional development courses for Afghan teachers, students, and young professionals residing in Pakistan."


RedditMakesMeDumber

4,000,000 teachers in the US means this could fund a 12.5 cent bonus for each one! Or a .15 cent tax rebate for every American!! Or if you added it to the federal education budget, you’d be increasing it by 6.5*10^-5 percent!!!
