Education today is more about political indoctrination, and being PC than learning those things that can help us in life. Diversity, Multi Culturalism, Anti Capitalism, White Privilege, etc are the new three R's.

I bet they don't know that his niece is a Republican who voted for Trump and according to her MLK was a Republican, his brother was a Republican and their father was a republican. The certainly aren't taught the meaning behind I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. That's the primary thing liberals/democrats judge on anymore.
How funny that RWNJs would come to the defense of a scientist. Or did Newton also believe that Jesus rode dinosaurs? Anyhow, scientists always get jobbed in the recognition game. Norman Borlaug saved millions of people but no one has ever heard of him.

Hilarious. But the joke here is that, unbeknownst to you, Newton lived before there was any understanding of the age of the Earth and was in fact a highly devout Christian.
If Newton was black, trust me, we would never hear the end of it and everyone will be made to know about his achievements.
Sounds racist.

They probably think Newton stole F=MG from advanced African civilizations that he colonized. Only possible explanation.
You have provided exactly zero back up for any of of your false allegations.

And I'm not buying the implication that liberals are solely responsible until that's also supported by facts.
It's like there aren't any Republicans who sit on school boards, teach, or write textbooks.
