"Woke" is all of five minutes old. How do you explain DECADES of declining test scores in America.
How do you explain the fact that scores are WORSE in Conservative States that have NEVER taught "woke"?
But sure, libs are bad, and that's why America's education sucks for the bottom 50% earners.
YA or OS: want to wager on how much Musk spends per student if he actually does this?

I'm sh*tting on the POSTER, not Musk, and the stupid "woke" spin.
I hope he does this! This is a GREAT use of his curious mind and money.

"What is Musk doing with his lawsuit against Media Matters?
Musk on Monday made good on his threat to file a lawsuit against the progressive media watchdog after lashing out over a report the group published last week showing that X had placed advertisements directly adjacent to neo-Nazi content. But Musk has effectively confirmed that the Media Matters report was accurate and that X did run ads against hateful content, which seems to take the teeth out of his complaint. "This lawsuit is riddled with legal flaws, and it is highly ironic that a platform that touts itself as a beacon of free speech would file a bogus case like this that flatly contradicts basic First Amendment principles and targets free speech by a critic," First Amendment attorney Ted Boutrous told me. "And in some ways itβs a dream come true for the people at Media Matters because it could allow them to use the litigation discovery process to force X to divulge all sorts of embarrassing, damaging private information that it would much rather keep secret." Angelo Carusone, the president of Media Matters, responded in a statement, "This is a frivolous lawsuit meant to bully Xβs critics into silence. Media Matters stands behind its reporting and looks forward to winning in court."
The free speech palaver from this guy is complete bullsh*t.
No worries; you read what you want to read. I am not calling you lazy or anything like that. And I agree: the piece is plainly anti-Musk. But I do think the lawsuit against Media Matters is a tool by a rich content platform to squelch reporting by a media actor. And it'll fail.tech37 wrote: βWed Jan 10, 2024 8:26 amSorry Seacoaster, couldn't past the first paragraph.

Days after the billionaire conspiracy theorist endorsed an antisemitic post on his hate-drenched platform, X, there is mounting pressure for others to take additional action against the unhinged businessman.
Go ahead, blame me for being lazy, or not understanding. Truth is, I don't have time for this sort of rubbish.
Beyond the point of the hypocrisy of trying to shut down a critic's free (and apparently truthful) speech, the paragraph above refers to the jiu jitsu of opening Musk and X up to discovery.Seacoaster(1) wrote: βWed Jan 10, 2024 8:48 amNo worries; you read what you want to read.

I know this is way off topic and meaningless in the vast configuration of things but I hope Musk is somehow embarrassed and/or humiliated in the end and in a fit of pique sells Twitter so we can have the Twitter name and little blue bird back. A friend of mine told me that he named one of his children a name that includes the letter X and that perhaps has something to do with why he changed the name. In any event, I'm rooting against him.Seacoaster(1) wrote: βWed Jan 10, 2024 8:13 am A little commentary on Musk's suit against a critic:

I don't think anyone, at least on here, hasn't acknowledged that "Musk is an eccentric genius". I'm not so sure what you mean by he's a "national treasure", and certainly don't understand by what you mean by "He's our eccentric genius". Do you simply mean he's an American citizen?tech37 wrote: βFri Jan 12, 2024 8:37 amMusk is an eccentric genius, eccentric enough to get involved politically whether he wants to or not.
