none of the vcs bitching about lowell give a shit about investing in education as a crucial function that affects all of society instead of a launching vehicle for their kids to make a lot of money a few years down the line

mike you’re not even close to having high school age kids why are you so deeply invested in keeping a status quo policy now instead of making sure the whole system is healthier
i am literally looking at houses in sf right now wondering "where the f am i going to send my kids to school if i buy here" what are you talking about

there’s at least a decade and a half in front of you to try to make the system better if you cared like. maybe that’s not enough time but honestly tell me if everyone just keeps focusing all their energy on the one existing target how the fuck does anything get better

agree there is time, but the more i look into this stuff the more i see how insanely entrenched the insanity is. the entire local machine is not only crazy but completely in power. just feels hopeless sometimes, which is likely where the present energy is coming from. despair.

you are a very smart person with a kind of extremely pronounced bullshit detector that i genuinely admire, i simply refuse to believe you are looking at this situation thinking "yes, schools will be better now"

i’m not saying this change instantly makes schools better but like i said in my other post how do you get people to care otherwise. are the vcs with school age kids now, whose urgency i do understand — what are they investing in the system to make it better
