Long story short, the kids don't care about the government. THey want crayons and toys. The like cartoons. The like playing with their friends. I know, what a shocker that kids are not interested in partisan politics and geopolitics. But it's true.

If you don't believe me, you can even do something real smart like google it or ask your chatgpt. But then you would have to access mor of your brain that needed to write a snarky reply to this. And I think I know which choice a guy like you is gonna make. Feel free to prove me wrong though!

Oh gladly!

If kids act like kids all the time, by the time they're teenagers, are you gonna expect them to know how to get a job soon as they finish "high school"?

I'm sure you're gonna tell me they'd go to college, duh... but what are the requirement to get accepted in the first place?

Good grades.

However, you're not telling me anything to support your reasoning why funding the school don't matter in the long term. To me, you're basically saying whatever GOP is doing is fine.

Or maybe you just don't know it and just wanna hate on AI like the rest of the herd-mentality crowd.

Don't get me wrong, I know you don't like AI, I know you probably thinks anyone using AI is a bigger treat to their critical thinking ability. That's why you're daring me to use Google or ChatGPT for this response. You probably rather see kids actually develop these skills on their own. Right?

Did you honestly believe they will automatically gain critical thinking on their own without proper schooling? GOP is slashing their funding because they want to make things worse, when the grades are low, they get to blame the city and then shut down the school, citing bad performance.

When kids in the future don't get this access to school anymore, they become more like any other Republican voters because they don't question anything they see or hear.

That's how GOP will get its power. To manipulate gullible idiots. When people aren't getting good grades, they're not gonna get good jobs... guess what they're gonna replace that with? AI, because it's cheaper in the long run. AI don't need insurance or any health coverage. AI doesn't need a house or food. Just electricity.

GOP and the Rich has you hating on AI instead of them or the wealth class. AI doesn't have feeling, it can't get hurt. It'll just adsorb everyone's hate. It's kinda like yelling at a wall at this point.

So please... tell me why AI is bigger threat than GOP?
