America Is Sliding Toward Illiteracy
Declining standards and low expectations are destroying American education.www.theatlantic.com
There’s no mention of “black culture”, liking sports, or hip-hop in this article, which many posters like to use as a scapegoat when they disparage black children’s academic performance.
You have posters on here who pretend that every child except black childrenare ready for Harvard which we know is far from the truth.
The issue is low standards, an over reliance on smartphones, and moving away from reading in general.
I’m sorry but LOL

I think america is headed for war. A lot of posters want to disagree but we need to be grownups about this. America CANNOT allow a competitor to exist which it cannot control. The entire 20th century and cold war was about this central idea. We didn't have to drop nuclear bombs on japan. Since ww2, files have been declassified showing the government was aware that japan(a country that was an ally less than 30 years ago) was trying to figure out how to surrender with dignity. So why drop the bombs on an already defeated enemy? To send a message to a hated enemy and reluctant ally(USSR).
If psychological warfare and economic warfare are not enough to make a competitor submit to American dominance, then it will be straight up war either by using a proxy or getting directly involved. Trump can do shyt like attack other countries in Latin america because they dont have nuclear weapons and the capacity to fight back. IMAGINE the reaction if any country did to america what america did to Iran over the summer and Venezuela recently.
So what's going to happen is america will eventually go to war with China either conventionally or through proxies. A lot of people don't know that something extremely important is about to happen in the next few days. China is about to announce its next 5 year plan. If that plan includes a focused blank check approach to building allies in Europe, Africa and throughout Asia, they will be ready when the fight eventually comes and I think there is a good chance they will win because the American public and leadership is becoming increasingly stupid, erratic, impulsive, and reactive. The way to avoid this entirely is to engage in sensible diplomacy and HEAVY investment in public services including education but as long as america clings desperately to corporate socialism and white supremacy, america's death as a respected superpower s as the French would say: "fait accompli"

If your kids can’t read from an early age they either have a disability or you are a bad parent.
It ain’t the schools fault.

Like clockwork the c00n ran in to put it on Black people even though the issue is with America as a whole.
Some of you losers raising Black kids and those kids are doomed due to being raised by self hating lames.

Kids are learning cursive in GA this school year for the first time in probably over a decade. Can’t remember when it stopped, but it was a while back.

I don't think the US will go to war with China, because we'd probably have to go to war with the world. As bearish as I was on China, I didn't think the US was going self-decapitate. We're becoming a pariah on the level of Russia, and if our economy crashes which it looks like it will...
we won't even the have ability to carry out a conventional war without turning all the resources of the economy into the war machine or without dropping nukes on everyone like Russia and I don't know if we'll go that far, because the administration has demonstrated that they want unchecked money and power.I'm just literally dumbfounded this country willingly chose this... but then again, to get back in topic... we're fukking illiterate so why am I surprised.
I like to think I've been fairly accurate assessing where the country is going and it's not pretty. We're literally about to enter a Cyberpunk Game of Thrones.

i don't believe this
you act like america slipping to "number 2" to china is something that people will tangibly feel, when it isn't at all. america and china exchanging rankings in a few categories doesn't mean shyt. hell, maybe china has already overtaken us
we're not going to war with china unless there's like an explicit resource we have to fight over, that's a matter of survival

America is about to lose another war.
When is the last time they won against somebody not weaker?
Black folks ain't going out there fighting for this country like in the past.

You said it yourself "I didn't think the us was going to self-decapitate" you understand that white america is acting irrationally. So then I ask: is it hard to imagine an irrational country would do something as irrational as declaring a trade war with its biggest trading partners and then eventually a military war with its ideological and racial opposite?I don't think the US will go to war with China, because we'd probably have to go to war with the world. As bearish as I was on China, I didn't think the US was going self-decapitate. We're becoming a pariah on the level of Russia, and if our economy crashes which it looks like it will...

The rise of china isnt just a threat to American economic dominance. It is the undeniable proof that the foundational ideologies of this country(white supremacy and unrestrained capitalism) are in fact complete and utter bullshyt. China did something no other country since recorded history has ever done: go from being a superpower to being one of the poorest countries on earth, back to a superpower. Since the 1980s theyve done the equivalent of lifting all of america up one class level nearly THREE TIMES over(800 million people). Imagine if you and everyone you know in the span of 40 years going from living with roommates to owning their own house and those with their own house buying a second one.
What does that say about the core beliefs of white america? If you are a black man who has been online for years and has interacted with white people you know that white people are some of the most insecure and psychologically fragile people on the planet. They are children riding a bike that has training wheels on it(systemic white supremacy which privileges them at every level of power) and have convinced themselves that they are extremely fast cyclists. How do they react when beaten on an even playing field when going up against non whites in fields like sports, video games or academics?
What you are witnessing right now with the rise of fascism in america and Europe is white anxiety around being dominated by people who dont look like them and are succeeding IN SPITE of the racism. As a black man you are the equivalent of a boxer stepping into the ring to fight an opponent who can freely use his arms but you have one tied behind your back and barbed wire inside the boxing glove of your free hand. What is your opponent going to do if he loses that match? We are watching a GLOBAL crash out of white people and when blaming immigrants isnt enough to explain why they aren't succeeding, they will blame their competition (china).
I judge white people based off their history. This country NEVER allows any non white nation to come close to it in terms of strength. America straight up killed African, Arab, and Latin american leaders who wanted to take the wealth of their countries away from American and european companies and give it back to their own people. This is known everywhere except america because our media is run by the same people who hoarded those stolen resources and grow richer and fatter off investments in those companies. Look at how there is STILL an embargo on Cuba because it forced america to take an L.
White people are known for crashing out when they start losing. If china pulls ahead, they know that a viable alternative now exists to america and all the foreign investment that was going to america when it still seemed like a country run by adults will just go straight to china and the countries that are finally recovering from the carnage that was the last 3 centuries of white imperialism. They are a global minority that has an epigenetic memory of humiliation when they were colonized by the moors, the romans, and the ottomans. The rise of non whites triggers an ancestral PTSD in them that makes them lose their fukking minds.
The chinese know this, everyone knows this. We dont know this over here because we are constantly fed propaganda in place of actual knowledge acquired from people in the places we are told are backwards and inferior.
