President Donald Trump signed several sweeping executive orders on Wednesday to overhaul the American education system, primarily by removing so-called progressive ideologies from school hallways and classrooms.

The executive orders come as Trump has railed against the U.S. education system, accusing it of indoctrinating children in radical anti-American, racist and gender ideologies.

However, critics swiftly condemned the executive orders as being an attack on LGBTQ students and on the accurate teaching of U.S. history, specifically concerning slavery and racial injustice.

All they want the peons to learn the 3 R's.

The order calls for schools to provide students with an education that instills "a patriotic admiration" for the United States, while claiming the education system currently indoctrinates them in "radical, anti-American ideologies while deliberately blocking parental oversight." 

A "patriotic admiration" translated from Republican speak: means not teaching about slavery, not teaching about the civil rights movement, not teaching about the Pilgrims and indentured servants.

His second directive aims to stop schools from using federal funds for curriculum, teacher certification and other purposes related to "gender ideology or discriminatory equity ideology."

"In recent years, however, parents have witnessed schools indoctrinate their children in radical, anti-American ideologies while deliberately blocking parental oversight," it reads.

Trump and his allies throughout the campaign have accused public schools of teaching white children to be ashamed of themselves and their ancestors due to the country's history of slavery and discrimination against people of color.

The second order, without evidence, claims that teachers have been "demanding acquiescence" to concepts of "white privilege" or "unconscious bias" and thereby promoting racism and undermining national unity.

The executive order will have a “chilling effect” on subjects related to race and ethnicity in schools, said Basil Smikle Jr., a political strategist.

This all falls under the heading of a "White Christian Nation!" They want to insert their "ism" before  

You've got to be taught to hate and fear

You've got to be taught from year to year

It's got to be drummed in your dear little ear

You've got to be carefully taught

You've got to be taught to be afraid

Of people whose eyes are oddly made

And people whose skin is a diff'rent shade

You've got to be carefully taught

You've got to be taught before it's too late

Before you are six or seven or eight

To hate all the people your relatives hate

You've got to be carefully taught

You’ve Got to Be Carefully Taught Lyrics By Oscar Hammerstein II, music By Richard Rodgers 

With Trump his father was arrested at a KKK rally in New York, with Musk he give a Nazi salute and flees South Africa just before the end of Apartheid... kind of makes you wonder, doesn't it.
