They sure love to take secular stuff and turn it Christian, by making it shittier.

Classic Learning Test, christ, can’t they come up with a better name. Trying to play up the classic as though all old ways are better than now. Is is better to drive a horse drawn carriage or a car? Classic is not always better, but I guess it’s their way of pretending they’re actually conservatives and not the far right reactionary extremists they are.

Also, CLT? Really? Did they not show this to a teenager to see if they’d giggle? Fuck these people are stupid, and their test proves it.

Really. Will they read Bertrand Russell, too, perhaps Robert Green Ingersoll. In Ron DeSantis' Florida, that'll happen about the same time pigs fly without benefit of Airbus, Boeing, or Cessna. The CLT would be laughable if it weren't so blatantly obvious in its purpose. It's good to see that those with some actual expertise in the business of student testing have called out the CLT for its problems. Sadly, it is far more than likely that DeSantis will push it through regardless, likely wasting taxpayer dollars on court challenges in the process.

This is a brand of stupidity the Sunshine State could do without, yet it will in all probability do WITH it.
