"What's behind the increase in homeschooling," tweeted Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, linking to an Axios article showing how homeschooling has become the fastest-growing form of education in America since 2020, while public schools have hemorrhaged enrollment. The tweet extended the public-school champion's perfect streak of lack of self-awareness, and the Internet did not take long to hold her accountable, prompting her to condemn her "reply-guys." Her retort did not disappoint in its cluelessness, either:
"Look at the data: if we dealt w/ gun violence, had robust anti-bullying programs & provided more services for special needs students, many of these parents wouldn't feel compelled to homeschool."
