Common Core Is Rewriting History Like a Tin Pot Dictatorship

February 7, 2014
By Sara Noble
‘Power is tearing human minds apart and putting them back together in new shapes of your own choosing.’ ~ O’Brien, 1984, George Orwell

Abraham Lincoln’s religion was Liberal, George Bush stole the election, social justice is the only justice, and the Electoral College is a mistake. That is what students are being taught in their math classes thanks to the federal government and a number of large corporations.

The Core is merely a set of standards according to the proponents. That is incorrect. The government and the large corporations own the copyright to the Standards and the lessons are approved and encouraged by the government. The publishing company Pearson is intimately tied into the government and the Common Core and is one of the worst offenders, spewing misinformation and politically-biased lessons.

Watch this clip:

The Daily Caller took a screen shot before it was removed covertly on Wednesday:



This is what it looks like now with the reference 5.5 stating that Lincoln, a Christian, ‘was not a professed church member’:

Politix reported that Common Core trashed Reagan and is teaching social justice.

This is from the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics on Reagan:

‘Over strenuous congressional opposition, Reagan pushed through his ‘supply side’ economic program to stimulate production and control inflation through tax cuts and sharp reductions in government spending. However, in 1982, as the economy declined into the worst recession in 40 years, the president’s popularity slipped and support for supply-side economics faded’.

None of that is true. The Reagan years were among our most prosperous. From 1983 to 1989, the US experienced an economic boon.

An NCTM (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics) conference scheduled for April will teach Algebra and Social Justice. There are over 700 sessions that deal with common core standards, number and operations, social justice, et al.

People should be very concerned about Social Justice as it is being taught. What it means in our liberal society is the government manipulation of all wealth until complete economic equality of all members of society is reached. It is full-scale government redistribution, collectivism, and it is, in other words, communism.

The idea comes from Karl Marx who believed that the money people make and the property they own do not rightfully belong to the people who make the money and own the property. You didn’t build that! Read more at Discover the Networks.

You might be wondering why false information on current events and history are being taught in math class. Math and Language Arts are the first of the standards to be implemented and the Core-istas didn’t want to waste time getting the propaganda out to the schools. The Core will ‘teach’ their rewrites of history in every subject as they are implemented.

It can only be construed as indoctrination. Students will get this far-left and often incorrect information throughout the day and in every subject.

Other societies once did the same. The rewriting of history is very dangerous. You only need to research Hitler’s Germany and Stalin’s Russia to know that is true.

Bill Ayers, communist and domestic terrorist, explains that change must come from the schools – remember he is a communist:
