Colorado teachers union passes resolution declaring capitalism 'inherently exploits children, public schools'
Fox News ^ | 05/04/2023 | Joshua Q. Nelson

The Colorado Education Association [CEA] reportedly passed a resolution that declares that "capitalism inherently exploits children, public schools, land, labor, and resources."

A final version of the resolution that was passed states that "CEA believes that capitalism requires exploitation of children, public schools, land, labor, and/or resources. Capitalism is in opposition to fully addressing systemic racism (the school to prison pipeline), climate change, patriarchy, (gender and LGBTQ disparities), education inequality, and income inequality.

However, a screenshot captures an earlier draft of the resolution that included a call to replace capitalism with a "new equitable economic system."

I would put all of them in the fields harvesting food and when they can no longer do that bury them. They want to be communists then we need to treat them like communists.

Teachers are indoctrinated. Remove the union and you still have idiot communists as teachers.

I wonder if these dopes realize that during the Cultural Revolution, the first people targeted by Mao’s zealots were the teachers.

Public schools have become Commie indoctrination centers. Notice how upset they get whenever you propose giving vouchers to parents so they can send their kid to a school of their own choice.

Well since they are paid from the fruits of capitalism, remove their pay lest they become part of the conspiracy.

Given they love communism so much, perhaps they might wish to check it out a bit. Even a cursory glance at wiki reveals the teachers’ fate under the communism they so admire:

“…Peoples’ Proletarian Cultural Revolution…….. tens of millions of people were persecuted: senior officials, most notably Chinese president Liu Shaoqi, along with Deng Xiaoping, Peng Dehuai, and He Long, were purged or exiled; millions were accused of being members of the Five Black Categories, suffering public humiliation, imprisonment, torture, hard labor, seizure of property, and sometimes execution or harassment into suicide; intellectuals were considered the “Stinking Old Ninth” and were widely persecuted—notable scholars and scientists such as Lao She, Fu Lei, Yao Tongbin, and Zhao Jiuzhang were killed or committed suicide. Schools and universities were closed with the college entrance exams cancelled. Over 10 million urban intellectual youths were sent to the countryside in the Down to the Countryside Movement”.. (forced labor).

As opposed to communism, which beats everyone down equally.

I recommend the CEA watch Chernobyl, to see what they are seeking. And that miniseries portrays the nearly spent regime of the ‘80’s, not the fun murderous times of communism at its prime.

Prior to teachers unions the USA was #1 in K12 education now with teachers unions we are in the bottom third among 1st world countries. All because JFK abolished the law that made it illegal for public sector employees to unionize. Restore
that law and end teachers unions.

IMHO, pushing for an end to capitalism in the US should be classified as an act of treason, punishable as such. Attacking capitalism and pushing to replace it with an “equitable economic system” is essentially pushing for an end to traditional America and its Constitutionally guaranteed right to self-determinism. It’s treasonous.

These morons went to college, got degrees in “education” and were indoctrinated by their Marxist professors. Now they are indoctrinating a whole bunch of mind numbed robots aka “students”.

Capitalism “exploits” children, but pedo trannies waving their twig and berries in front of them and groping them is perfectly okay.

No surprise. Teachers unions are champions of Marxist ideology.

Capitalism gives parents a chance to make a good living and provide for their children.

Teachers' Unions and schools teach children to hate, to feel like victims, to believe that math and science are racist, to develop an interest in sex with their friends (particularly those of the same sex), to believe that the genders they were born with are erroneous and that they should consider gender reassignment surgery that is permanent and life destroying.

Question: Which of the above is exploiting children?

This article sounds like another case of people on the Left projecting their own crimes on their political opponents.

Government run schools need to be shut down. The biggest mistake that we Americans ever made was turning the education of our children over to the government.
