Cold War Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 When I was in school there wasn’t a big political bias, like there is today. People voted every couple years and that was about it . Win or lose you went on with your life. Had a couple of women teachers that were together. I don’t think even other teachers knew they were a couple until years after they retired. A lot of things just weren’t talked about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At my high school, the only social studies teacher I liked was the one was not tied in tightly to the union president. My econ teacher was the same way. Taught very pro-union and the only acceptable sources for papers were alternet.net and some other sight similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My whole time in school, all the way thru grade 12 I never had a teacher who inferred any political bias whatsoever. East coast is like a liberal shit hole country. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only remember one time where an election or politics was brought into the classroom and they had 2 kids (one republican and one democrat) debate in class. But I cannot ever remember a teacher speaking about it or being biased about it. However I really didnt give a fuck about politics back then. All I thought about was getting laid and getting loaded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My econ teacher berated a classmate in front of the whole class because her parents were vocal against the referendum that was voted down that year. Not just a sentence or two, like 5 minutes worth and she just had to sit there and take it. Edited November 20, 2018 by racinfarmer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold War Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Best class i ever had was current Events . First thing in morning. Me and buddy waked and baked on our way to class. Brought in our coffees. Even the young teacher who taught it was buzzed. We spent the first half of class reading paper. Second half debating the stories. Never picked up a pencil. Solid A . Even if I was going to skip, I would pop in for my CE class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teacher read the paper , then a debate. Contribute to the debate it was an a. Just sit there and don't disrupt it , it was a b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know if a teacher lectured me about some shit my parents did my dad would be throwing that back like a mofo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
