Apparently, Barack Obama is ideologically a right wing authoritarian.
Hillary Clinton and George W Bush are entirely indistinguishable politically.
Donald Trump is of course virtually the same as Hitler.
@tedcruz is apparently more radically authoritarian than Fidel Castro AND Joseph Stalin…???
@Linda_McMahon — can we expedite some major changes to American public education?

Do they? I thought AP was a separate entity from the school system
It is, but Texas purchases the largest number of textbooks in the country, so if they refuse to purchase them, it means the printing companies lose out on lots of money. (especially since if Texas refuses all the Southern states will also likely refuse as well)
Damn, TIL.
Yeah, like most censorship in the US, it isn’t some nefarious government official putting books on the official state ban list, it’s private companies working together to maximise their profiteering off of keeping the public as ignorant as possible.
