    When he gets to the point where he needs life support, I hope some child who needed that wi-fi hotspot and couldn’t get it, because that loser got his way, is able to block his life support. Nothing of value would be lost.

    Why do these fuckers spend so much time and effort trying to make things worse? Like there’s scapegoating immigrants because it’ll rile up your voter base and get you re-elected and then there’s shit like taking away lunch from kids. Like who does that even benefit?

    I’m genuinely asking if they just get giddy with excitement at the thought of making things worse for other people.

      It’s simple really. People vote on culture war issues, and respect posture more than reason, we are a weak species that is easily manipulated, moreso when you gut education.

    Hotspot lending could “censor kids’

    definition of censorship is not your access to alternatives to the “state propaganda curriculum”. Access to alternatives is in fact the opposite of censorship.

    “The government shouldn’t be complicit in harming students or impeding parents’ ability to decide what their kids see by subsidizing unsupervised access to inappropriate content,”
