And that makes a difference... how? I remember there's one/was one news segment with four members, with one of them a democrat, and the entire show was the other three people bashing his ideas for the entire time while he gave the weakest possible arguments. Its a strawman.

Anyone involved in childhood psychology can tell you that the ability to understand abstract concepts like FOIL comes after distinguishing concepts based on physical representation. There's a reason why the abacus is still used after all this time.
All right, please lock this thread. Its just a bunch of idiots bashing fox news without even watching it again. The stupidity of the posters in this thread is amazing. Even if you agree with the distribution of wealth, how the hell could you dispute that the worksheet was pushing it? Come on people, I know you're all smarter then this!!
People are reading the article.
it is still ridiculous to claim such things btw.
Its a perfectly fine exercise, but people have this mania of persecution and have to make big deals out of things that arent a big deal.
To you it might seem as "shaping childs beliefs" to me its a normal math exercise that in no way will change how kids will see the world...
Humans can be manipulated, but they arent THAT gullible....
It just reeks of paranoia and nothing better to do
Just a point of note, calling people who call Fox News out for its track record of falsified information, fabricated information, habitual use of out-of-context comments, defending nearly everything the Religious Right does no matter how morally reprehensible, and wild-eyed fearmongering idiots does little to win people over to your point of view and even less to encourage thoughtful discussion.
Be seeing you guys on Bloodsail Buccaneers NA!
So would no one have an issue with the same worksheet instead of "Distribute the wealth with the lovely rich girl with a big ole bag of money, handing some money out."
It said "Distribute the wealth with Jesus Christ with a big ole bag of love, handing some love out."?
Or "Distribute the tax breaks with the lovely government official with a big ole bag of legislation, handing some tax breaks out."?
I am not lumping all the liberals together. I was pointing to liberals who believe they are immune to propaganda and believe a liberal propaganda without any doubts.
I see a large group of liberals that will believe anything that pushes liberal agenda such as this post and I also see a large group of conservatives that will believe anything that pushes conservative agenda based on some silly propaganda. Either way, this is why people would fail democracy.. It's quite sad.
their moving their table over their
they're moving they're table over they're
there moving there table over there
A great man once said: Sometimes in life... a cigar is just a cigar.
Which do you think this one is? A graphic illustration to help children learn basic mathematical concepts... or a secret conspiracy designed by a secret society of devil-worshiping liberals to indoctrinate a society of children into socialists - children who's current aspirations are probably to simply get home to nab that elusive Wasabichu Pokemon they've been after for a while.
... no, not something "so subtle" that they wouldnt even understand. That is an adult mind at work, one that might be called paranoid.
should we remove the word "share" from the vocabulary because it might instill uncontrollable urges to be left-winged?
Ok, that is a bit of a strawman, but i use it to illustrate that the notion is a tad silly tbh
'Twas a cutlass swipe or an ounce of lead
Or a yawing hole in a battered head
And the scuppers clogged with rotting red
And there they lay I damn me eyes
All lookouts clapped on Paradise
All souls bound just contrarywise, yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
When reading those problems I don't think about any subtle involved. Kids aren't really concerned about that. They really are not, unless people are insinuating children are genius's. I can't even perceive how bad this is. My goodness, do people look for bad things to happen because they are so jaded and dark the only way to sate themselves is look for stuff like this?

Yeah people tend to forget that human development isnt just physical but also mental, and even in the physical part the brain isnt nearly as developed in a child, so they view the world through their own bias (we all do) but do the mistake of applying it to a child.
Quite a lot of "think of the children" policies are aberrations stemming from this thought processes, kids dont think like we do, and dont have the life experienced that shaped the persons views.
Oh, I don't disagree. I agree it's stupid. My issue is with people attacking this guy's position against math when he didn't even take that position. There are so many more worthy things to take issue with in that video, like how that one guy on the right called Nobel Winning economist Paul Krugman's work childish.
I hope Murdoch feels proud of the empire he has built and the quality for which it stands.
