      Republicans suck. Texas is fine. It’s just land. Texas was fine 30 years ago before all the repuglicunts moved in.

        Republicans are an existential threat. I say this all the time. We’ve moved beyond “oh well it’s a difference of opinion.” The republican party is wrong on every issue of note. Many of their members tried to overthrow the US government, and the rest didn’t leave the party.

        We should be hanging republicans for treason.

          Yup, Texas was democratic until around 2000. Which makes it even funnier when people here acted like it’s been some Republican strong hold since the Alamo.

            LOL, that’s just because before then, conservative Democrats (i.e. Dixiecrats) were a thing.

    And that’s why you let educators decide which textbooks they deem fit for their subjects, not partisan regulators with an agenda.

    Maybe Texas should, you know, transition to selling wind energy so their economy doesn’t crash when fossil fuels are finished.

    I read Texas’s biggest imports and exports are oil. So the only thing bigger than their oil economy is their resistance to change.

      But don’t you see? They’ve discovered the most dirty and destructive ways possible to extract the lowest quality fossil fuel remnants in the world for just long enough that all the top executives will probably be dead or retired by the time it runs out! In other words, no problem!

        So if the textbook was say 10 chapters, and 7 of them were about ionic bonding, that wouldn’t be a problem?

            Based on this headline it could be the situation I’m describing: that literally they have a problem with too much focus being put on a single topic, in a class that’s supposed to cover many topics.

            So no, you don’t know that yet. Unless you can present more evidence that it is.

              If you truly believe that, I have a mountain chalet in Florida to sell you.

      You’d think so, but with the amount of angry shouting and paranoid delusions of these ignoramuses, I’m not convinced…
