The Grotesque Adventures of Leo and Layla

Have you ever wondered what happens when you mix raw sewage with the skulls of thousands of public school students? Well, John Knefel of Media Matters has done God’s work and uncovered the answer – it’s PragerU’s educational material! Brace yourself, as watching any of it may give you a traumatic brain injury. Yes, you heard that right. These videos are so mind-numbingly terrible that they can cause physical harm.

But fear not, for the adventures of Leo and Layla are here to save the day! PragerU Kids, in their infinite wisdom, have come up with a solution to the uncomfortable feelings white children have when confronted with the realities of racism, colonialism, and oppression. And what is that solution, you ask? It’s a rigorous disavowal of any connection between the past and the present, where historical injustices committed by white people are explained away as well-intentioned acts. Because who needs to learn from the past when you can pretend it never happened in the first place?

Now, let’s shift the focus to the sunny state of Florida, known for its beautiful beaches, alligator-filled swamps, and educational catastrophes. First, we have Ron DeSantis, the floundering presidential candidate, wreaking havoc on New College. It’s like watching a slow-motion train wreck, but instead of a train, it’s an entire college. But wait, there’s more! Young Ben Sasse, formerly a preachy nuisance in the Senate, is now the president of the University of Florida, and he’s brought along some friends – the consultants from McKinsey. They are experts in destroying the world through the power of jargon.

Now, if you were expecting clear explanations from Young Ben, don’t hold your breath. His words resemble a techno-futurist patois that will leave you scratching your head in confusion. Unbundling cohorting, community, and synchronicity from co-localities? What does that even mean? And don’t get him started on the future of pedagogy. He’ll throw out terms like “syllabus designer,” “sage-on-the-stage lecturer,” and “instructional technologist” as if they were part of a secret code. It’s like listening to someone speak in tongues, but instead of channeling a divine power, they’re just spewing buzzwords.

But here’s the kicker: Young Ben’s love for consultants might not be a coincidence. Before entering the Senate, he dabbled in the world of consultancy, and guess who he crossed paths with? That’s right, McKinsey! It’s almost as if there’s some special connection between them. And now, with DeSantis’ reform agenda in full swing, Young Ben is bringing that sweet, sweet consultancy flavor to the University of Florida. Because nothing says “moderation” like maintaining political excesses while pretending to condemn them.

So there you have it, folks. The grotesque adventures of Leo and Layla and the puzzling world of Young Ben Sasse. Brace yourself for mind-numbing boredom, intellectual acrobatics, and the destruction of universities — all under the guise of education. It’s like watching a circus, but instead of clowns, you have consultants. And instead of laughter, you’ll be left questioning your own sanity.
