Black people are disproportionately in poorer areas with more police with underfunded areas surrounded by crime but "get over it life is unfair it doesn't matter cause that's how life works so we should not do anything at all to help those who are underprivileged cause that how life works. thats the logic im seeing from thomas sowell right now.

what if one just avoided the mess to begin with by thinking about the consequences of personal choice
If your born into a crime ridden area where crime is the main thing you know you are more likely to become a criminal. Environment is a huge factor of whether you will become a criminal or not i'm not saying everyone in crime ridden areas are destined to become a criminal i'm saying they are more likely.

what if one were born in crime ridden neighborhood with a bad school and barely any money? do they just deal with it?
just save their money?
What if one got addicted to drugs? do they just stop doing it?
What if one went to jail for doing drugs and now most jobs wont accept him? Does he just deal with it? save his money?
What if one is born into a family that lives in their car?

@Wylted
are you being serious; I can't tell lol or is it a joke
If your being serious the onion is literally a satirical news source (though pretty funny) and they made that video to make fun of people who think like that.
If your joking that's pretty funny lol.

Tell me otherwise and im blocking you (joking) loki was a banger the only marvel movie or series i didn't like much was age of ultron. DC is a literal trash can though almost every movie they make is 100x worse than an mcu movie besides a few good ones like snyder's justice league and batman.

That's completely different from telling kids that this ideology is bad you should be this one. indoctrination definition- the process of teaching a person or group to accept a set of beliefs uncritically. though i dont fully agree with communist principles i dont think it should be taught thats its evil and terrible. What would you do if instead the bill was about teaching the evils of capitalism?

I would say market socialism provides more freedom especially to the workers.
Its like democracy in a workplace instead of all the decisions being made by the higher ups.
What aspects or methods in particular?
Higher social safety net such as healthcare for all when you get out of jail you can still vote i believe and when you get out of jail you can still progress without having the fear of not getting a job because of something you did when you were 18. these are only a few aspects.

Currently i would say "That we ought increase regulation on the capitalist system that already exists?" i think we should first stray for a social democracy and then slowly progress towards market socialism.
Market socialism definition--- Market socialism is a type of economic system involving the public, cooperative, or social ownership of the means of production in the framework of a market economy

House Bill 5: Civic Education Curriculum: which must include a comparative
discussion of political ideologies, such as communism and
totalitarianism, that conflict with the principles of freedom
and democracy essential to the founding principles of the United
States
Section 1 lines 26 through 30

@fauxlaw
quote from desantis himself "the bill also expands our previous efforts in civics to add a requirement for the high school government class that students receive instructions on the evils of communism and totalitarian ideologies". Fox News even reported on it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-R2No986300 he states that at 3:10.

Should they be taught whether Hitler is good or bad?Just so I understand your gist.
Duh he murdered 17 million people. hitler was a person. communism is a political ideology.
We don't see many North Korean immigrants either, but of course that's because North Korea is a wonderful place, leader with the highest amount of support, than any other nation, I hear.
Are you suggesting vietnamese people are fed propaganda? If so please provide evidence. that was pretty funny regardless.

We live in a Capitalist society, it is reasonable that American students are taught of what type of society they live in.
I agree that they should only be taught what it is. just like i agree they should be taught what communism is not whether its good or bad.
"Unlike most of the foreign-born from Asia, those from Vietnam came to the United States mainly as refugees and asylum seekers from the mid-1970s onward. Today, the U.S. is home to about 1.1 million Vietnamese immigrants, making them the fifth-largest immigrant group."
That doesn't mean right now there is a ton of vietnamese immigrating. Also there are lots immigrants probably because of vietnam war where the us did war crime after war crime. https://historynewsnetwork.org/article/1802 but i could be wrong

https://wusfnews.wusf.usf.edu/education/2021-06-23/desantis-signs-education-bills-says-students-will-be-taught-communism-is-evil essentially children will be taught capitalist propoganda (not all) republicans support this bill but laugh at the idea of teaching that gay people exist (not all). He says common anti communist talking points like cuba and vietnam yet fails to mention how cuba has suffered under US sanctions for almost 60 years. The UN has denounced by the sanctions as illegal and inhumane and every member state with the exception of the us and israel votes against the oppressive measures that have cost the economy billions of dollars. Despite all this Cuba has a better life expectancy than the US and had a better covid response.
Desantis makes it sound like theres some big immigration from vietnam to the US that's not the case at all. The vietnamese show overwhelming support for their government out of 45 polled nations vietnam showed the highest rates of satisfaction with their governments response to covid.

I'm assuming your referring to christian values? the bible doesn't mention homosexuality a single time. https://www.hrc.org/resources/what-does-the-bible-say-about-homosexuality

Youd be suprised. Ben Shapiro (one of the biggest conservative talk show hosts in america) thinks its indoctrination.
Created:
I know people will say that "its indoctrantation and will turn people gay" when there is 0 correlation. Its not teaching all of the biological factors of being transgender or gay its just explaining that they exist and are humans like anyone else.
