BREAKING: Zohran Mamdani is expected to require ALL New York Elementary school students to learn Arabic numerals.
As a Jewish American I still support this 100%

That’s ridiculous! Learning other languages should be a choice, not a demand."
and so on, and so on, as far as you can scroll...
I wonder what will happen when someone tells them that dihydrogen monoxide is used in every school too! Chemical that is found in acid rain, that corrodes metals and if inhaled in even small quantities, can kill you....
If you feel bad about yourself, if you think that you are not doing great, that you are falling behind, go to X and you will see that you are doing just good.
