unfortunately a contributor here is also their State Superintendent of Public Instruction. for the unaware, that’s an elected position in Oklahoma and was won last year by an avowed Christian nationalist who wants to destroy the education system. without exaggeration, the guy thinks teachers are indoctrinating children with communism and that teacher’s unions should basically not be legal. he’s such an extremist even other Republicans in-state are a bit mortified by some of the fights he’s picked.
