I remember the common core math problem I tried to solve on the web

I gave up...as I saw utterly no logic in it at all.

Communist Core..doesn’t belong in America

Instead of saying “what is 2 + 3?” They say something like “what is an addition fact about 2 and 3?”

I work with a lot of engineers who are math wizzes, and I aced differential equations. None of us could figure any of this Common Core math. We’ve concluded that the purpose of this pretzel logic common core math is to befuddle and frustrate the students, leading them to give up, think they are too stupid, and accept being dumbed down to the lowest common denominator.

Common Core intentionally destroys Reason and Logic in children to make them know they are dumb and so they will never desire Excellence (true education). Don’t you notice how the vast majority of children over the last 50 years hate to Read—unless it is comic books or porn (50 shades of Grey).

This lack of Classical Education-—when 5 years or less created minds like Mark Twain, Howard Hughes and Lincoln-—self educated men—all geniuses are self-educated and Readers and thought “outside the box”. Now they punish and humiliate EVERYONE who dares “think” like a Lincoln or a Christian. Vice has to be habituated and learned.

New Math and other New Age curricula didn’t destroy Reason enough in the sheeple——too many Ben Carson-types got through the public system.

Like Fichte stated-—children have to be made to believe “snow is black”-—to be so irrational they believe all the Lies from the Marxist state so they remain “happy (drugged) slaves”.

Goebbels quote: “It would not be impossible to prove with sufficient repetition and a psychological understanding of the people concerned that a square is in fact a circle. They are mere words, and words can be molded until they clothe ideas and disguise.”
