Mangled Thoughts

With exceptions, Howard’s reflection on the inadequate rigour with which history is taught in schools brought out the usual demented reactions of leftoid teachers and other assorted feral animals.

History debate rages over narrative

AUSTRALIA’S national day of celebration was marked by a renewed outbreak of the culture wars as education experts debated the way Australia’s story is taught in schools.

The latest hostilities were provoked by John Howard’s comments at the National Press Club on Wednesday, where he claimed the teaching of history had degenerated into a “fragmented stew” of post-modernist ideas with no clear narrative thread….

next to the usual rants such as:

Australian Education Union secretary Andrew Gohl told The Australian:…”
Does it mean we can’t talk about the invasion of Australia, or the appalling treatment of indigenous Australians?”

Entirley lost on the pillock is, the `appaling treatment’ dished out to aborgines has been committed by the socilaito policies, at great burden to real taxpayers to keep as many aboriginies as possible ground into the dirt of primitive tribalism. As for invasion… what? Like Hitler’s spring-time? Gohl has to stop sucking on acid drops.

This, however,gives away how thoroughly debased the subject of history is, once a sound scholarly discipline with schools ensuring pupils walked out with at least a comprehension of the building bolcks of the subject and thus able to read sound works for their pleasure and interest,, it is now an exercise in brainwahsing young things into woo woo - pol potian beliefs. History rendered ugly, something to throw away on the instant of leaving school :

the NSW curriculum for younger students shows that, as in the other states, history is being taught as part of “human society and its environment” rather than as a free-standing subject.

The NSW curriculum also stipulates seven “perspectives” that should be applied to the subject matter: Aboriginal, civics and citizenship, environmental, gender, global, multicultural and work.

Mr Donnelly argues the relativist approach, in which no single perspective dominates, is inherently contradictory. On the one hand curriculum documents point to the subjectivity of historical understanding, while on the other mandating approaches such as feminism and environmentalism as templates for students’ understanding.

The oxymoron involved in, ‘history is being taught as part of “human society’, is wrose than a vulagrism of vulgarisms, which shows what is problematic with, States’ Govts. and their Bureaucrats dictating education and the short cut to teaching , the crapola of `bachelor of education’. Schooling is no longer , in govt. schools certainly, dominated and ordered by graduates holding real university degrees’. Of course, that is, these days begging the querstion when history in the university is dominated not by Professors of History but mythologisers inculcating the voodoo beliefs of socialistos.

Dah environment: `environmental science is bunk’. The only reason why it ha sbeen proliferated is becuase the bloody pollies have embraced woo beleifs to the hilt and thus fund charltanism to the hilt. Just consider, fir further illumination, that load of bullshit called sociologists and the derivatives, `relgious studies’ and `social work’ and such crapola real taxpayers are plundered to fund on a grand scale. Basically, those charlatans, the politicians and the bureaucrats are turning out of schools and unis ignoramuses who are useless, can’t make their own way, and reliant on bloody `govt.’ non-jobs to do what… feel good, that is all.

`Environmental science’ is the same, an expensive load of crap etnailing the corruption of science and the turning out of so many are nothing but mouths for quacks. Reading through universities’ `course’ descriptions for it alone makes plain how shoddy, what garbage `enviro-science’ is. it is nothiong more than a lie and a propaganda effort, as well as a brainwashing exercise, to justify what is another rotten cult, environmentalism and the source, Pol Pot’s bum wipes, the Greens. Jolly, how many millions, it is certainly more than a hundred per annum thrown down that sewer. The upshot: those schools, such as they are, tyurn out little totalitarian, infantile shits who, backed by the police state `environmental laws ‘ of each tier of `govt.’, turn out to be only nasty little KGB-Gestapo fingerwagging little shits.

So, in the name of history, the commie bastards of N.S.W., applies also to, say, Victoria, and Federal `Education’. called politicians and bureaucrats have corrupted botrh science and history and converted history into nothing less than nothing less than ,mystical commie shite. Now, that is a crime,for, in schools certainly, poinko arseholes such as Grohl are engaged in nothing less than corruptioon of youth as well as brainwashing pupils into tjhe garbage they plaming of as the scholarly discipline, history. If a company were to do that, they wouuld be charged of a number of offences. Why do fucking pollies, bureaucrats and `teachers’ and “teachers’ universities” get away with it and on a grand scale free!
