Who Picks the “Experts”?

Who Picks the “Experts”?:
"...The only silver lining of the COVID-19 black cloud was the exposure of what teachers were teaching to the students’ parents, all because of ‘distance learning’. 
Ho boy. 
More experts, telling our children everything from race theory, to the ‘America Last’ view of History, to gender resolution. 
  • Note that not a single teacher has true expertise in ANY of those subjects, but they simply assume expert status, since up until now, no one was looking. 
  • Note to expand the curriculum to include these esoteric subjects, the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic have to take a back seat in importance—and the test scores reveal that ‘success’.
  • The subject of History alone is a wonderful microcosm of academic self-back-patting: History professors claim to know what historical figures were thinking and doing, hundreds of years ago, without a single new document or letter to substantiate such claims. 
Folks, if there is no new data to contradict decades or centuries of historical thought, that is NOT new history, it is simply the opinion of the History professor in question—oddly enough, there isn’t enough data to challenge that new opinion, either (of course).
There are now more race, gender, and cultural experts than any time in history..."
