Replying to @brhodes
I saw a sociopath who is a pathological liar try to bully a man who was trying desperately to provide correct information— accurately but too much of it. I wonder if this response is more common among women who have experienced it personally, or if I'm just bad at optics.

It’s a lovely but delusional argument. Because poor children will never have the choices of wealthy people. The vouchers won’t pay for the schools the wealthy children attend and those schools won’t accept the poor students anyway. We should stop pretending vouchers exist due to concern for the poor. The entire reason public schools came into existence was to ensure quality education for students regardless of income. If people were really concerned about this they’d adequately fund and resource public schools to ensure access to quality education for the schools 90 percent of American students attend.
Why not give poor children to the opportunity to make this same choice, currently only available to the (relatively) wealthy?

To highlight another article from the April issue, we would like to take notice of Dr. Trevion Henderson's work regarding engineering epistemology and how these epistemological beliefs have consequences when students work individually and in teams. [1/2]

🚨Today’s decision by the UNC Board of Trustees to defund all DEI and reallocate the funds to campus policing is a despicable and outrageously racist act. News media - Please be clear in your reporting: this is an attack Black/ Brown talent, representation, & opportunity. 🧵
