Prediction: as families across this nation realize how much NONE of this is going to work -- being in school, trying to learn remotely in broke districts with no training or resources, trying to work + home school -- the rage over our failed response will grow exponentially. https://twitter.com/WSJ/status/1293389264907010051
Here in Oakland we start early -- this week. Some other districts do, too. The rage is here, and everywhere school is starting. As first days of school roll across this country we are going to internalize how truly big B bad this really is.
Honestly wonder if America should go on a general strike like they do in Europe, demanding a six-week hard lockdown, testing and tracing, like FIX IT. This whole thing is limping along on the backs of all of us doing our damnedest to get work done. It's not sustainable.
Also I know there's a sense of futility because it seems like we don't even agree there's a, uh, actual virus. But I think the schools thing will do it in the end, because at some point the truth comes home to your own house and you just can't avoid it anymore.
