    Y’all, is it communist to … <checks notes> … take notes about the definition of communism for school?

    I don’t understand what the issue is meant to be. The quotes that OOP gave are like… literally the definition of communism. There is no opinion on whether communism is good or bad. Is OOP complaining that learning about communism is bad?

      OOP is grasping at straws blaming anyone but himself for all his children going no contact

      Notice the handwritten pages at the bottom. OOP’s daughter was probably in a history or politics class and was taking notes on Marx.

      You know, how class notes work?

        It’s not like she wrote “communism is the way to live! Abortions for everyone once we seize the means of production!”.

    …I am very estranged from all of them because of it…

    Yes, I’m sure “communism” is why you’re estranged from your children, and It has nothing to do with the fact that you’re a narrow minded right wing nut job.

      No, it was definitely the dryly neutral notes on communism from a macroeconomics survey course.

    This is what happens when we let Fox News and the Facebook algorithm guide our elders through age-related cognitive decline: they turn into hate-zombies.

    And you wonder why they’re so against education. Even learning about other societal structures is clearly bad! /s

      Learning about different cultures is part of that cultures agenda!!!one!

      Not like that “Christian university” won’t have an agenda of their own

    I’d like to believe if I opened up my kid’s notebook, I would think about how much I love them, how smart they are, what productive people they’ve turned into. This guy just pushes them away even though they aren’t there, and apparently don’t want to be near him. It’s pathetic and sad.

      That person is trying to find any reason, other than himself, that their kids don’t like them and don’t want to be around them.
