#TrumpLies are too many for me to live #FactCheck. I’ll try to deal w/that shitshow later, tho I’ll highlight a few.

E.G.
Trump just claimed he’s stopped “government censorship” & “brought back free speech in America.” In reality, Trump has signed #ExecutiveOrders that’s required the govt to scrub certain words & phrases from the public domain, dictating “patriotic education,” & just today announced that #schools would lose federal funding if they allowed students to engage in certain protests.

#SurveillanceCapitalism Spreading In #Schools, Sidelining Role Of #Teachers.

My Take: putting children under 24/7 monitoring, is harmful to natural development + #autonomy.

Ex: intense security (like recent proposal to add armed taser drones + force children to train with them) may do little more than put kids in more fear.

How Surveillance Capitalism Is Spreading to Schools

Ed-tech companies are mining and exploiting students’ data while sidelining the role of teachers.
