Why would you let 'teachers' who loathe your values, and who despise your civilization, 'educate' your kids?

I realize this was meant as a rhetorical question, but the answer is that there's not enough liquidity in schools. Most parents only have a few options.
My solution to this problem (after choosing the best school I can find) is to tell my kids explicitly that a lot of the stuff they're going to learn in school is bullshit, and explain the different reasons why.

Arguably they're net ahead if they get inoculated against bullshit in this way. Even when they're being taught bogus things, they're still learning, just not the lesson the teachers think they're teaching.
-
Parents often request teachers who have a track record of success and don’t push bogus things.

Someone recently commented to me that once their child is school-age, they’ll have to teach them what NOT to say in school in order to avoid being ostracized and targeted for punishment / re-education. I suspect this is a tough concept for younger kids to absorb, though.

I have this radical idea that parents shouldn't have to spend hours every week debunking the nonsense imposed by propagandists who are paid by our own tax dollars.
