On Monday, the Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to use racial profiling in its militarized immigration raids across Los Angeles, halting an injunction that had barred officers from targeting Latinos based on ethnicity. The court did not explain the reason for its shadow docket order, which appeared to split 6–3 along ideological lines. In dissent, Justice Sonia Sotomayor warned that the decision was “unconscionably irreconcilable with our nation’s constitutional guarantees,” opening the door to violent persecution of Latinos—including American citizens—by “masked agents with guns.” The majority did not respond to this extraordinary charge, perhaps because it is so obviously true.
Completely agree. There was a reason conservatives threw a shit fit two decades ago when high schoolers were going to be taught critical thinking skills. They fought tooth and nail to prevent it from happening.
Critical thinking skills and the skills of forming your own opinion and defending it with facts and logic should be taught in grade school. Instead most students are not introduced this until college.
Now you know why the right hates colleges so much and are so desperate to have their ideology taught as factual. They can’t have anyone using critical thinking skills otherwise their house of cards will fall down.
Completely agree.
