I couldn't find a video of it so will stick with the Wiki description:

The Bellamy salute was first demonstrated on October 12, 1892, according to Bellamy's published instructions for the "National School Celebration of Columbus Day":

At a signal from the Principal the pupils, in ordered ranks, hands to the side, face the Flag. Another signal is given; every pupil gives the flag the military salute – right hand lifted, palm downward, to align with the forehead and close to it. Standing thus, all repeat together, slowly, “I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands; one Nation indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all.” At the words, “to my Flag,” the right hand is extended gracefully, palm upward, toward the Flag, and remains in this gesture till the end of the affirmation; whereupon all hands immediately drop to the side.

— From The Youth’s Companion, 65 (1892): 446.​

The NON-STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) departments of the majority of American colleges and universities, teach shit-loads of it every day, Nordberg.




For example the teach various types of Critical Theory classes. Critical Theory is neo - Marxist school of thought that, as the name suggests, had its origins in orthodox Marxism, which began with Karl Marx's political, sociological, economic, sociological theories of Communism. Technically speaking Communism is not identical to Socialism, but the fundamental tenets of both are pretty much the same. Right ? They are closely-related collectivist, egalitarian world-views wherein the people own and control the means of production and there is an equitable distribution of resources/sercices (like health-care among all of the different groups in society; where there is equal justice for all and so on.





So when I say neo-Marxist that's basically the same as neo- Socialist. But I'll use the term neo-Marxist because that's they term that is currently used.





Now there's one more thing I need to tell you. The Socialism that is taught in colleges and universities in America is actually neo-Marxist - Postmodernim. Postmodernism is a Marxist-based philosophy that got came into the mainstream of academic culture around the 1980's. By the 1990's it got blended with with neo-Marxism and that is why I put the hyphen between the two to describe what the theoretical basis of teaching and learning is TODAY in the non-STEM departments of the vast majorty of university/college departs is: NEO-MARXIST-POSTMODERNISM.





So we are going to say that the modern day "SOCIALISM" you referred to is now called "NEO-MARXIST-POSTMODERNISM."





Here are some of the many classes that are taught in American colleges and Universties that are vehicles for indoctrination in "SOCIALISM" today...





* WOMEN'S STUDIES

*CULTURAL STUDIES

* BLACK STUDIES

* NEO-COLONIAL STUDIES

* WESTERN IMPERIALIM

* FEMINIST STUDIES

* QUEER THEORY

* BLACK ANALITY

* SEX STUDIES

* HARRY POTTER STUDIES

* THE PHYSICS OF "STAR TREK"

* "SOUTH PARK" and CONTEMPORAY AMERICAN SOCIETY.

* INTRODUCTION TO FEMINIST LITERATURE

* LGBTQI+ STUDIES

* DISABILITY STUDIES

* INTRODUCTION TO THE "1619 PROJECT"

* SLAVERY STUDIES

* INTRODUCTION TO POST-STRUCTURALISM

* STUPIDY: A SOCIOLOGICAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL AND PHILOSOPHICAL ANALYSIS...(seriously)

I remember in first grade hearing some screams of kids getting paddled with some Medieval device, but in the subsequent years it seems like corporeal punishment became illegal in public schools

An 8-year-old student was kicked out of a Christian elementary school, after she told another female student she had a crush on her, the mother says.

The incident occurred last week, when Chloe Shelton, a second grader at Rejoice Christian School in Owasso, Oklahoma, told another female student she had a crush on her, mother Delanie Shelton told CNN.
Chloe was immediately removed from the playground and spent the next few hours in the principal's office, missing class time as a result, Shelton said.
"Before I was even called, the vice principal told Chloe that the Bible says that women can only have children with a man," Shelton told CNN. "(The vice principal) asked me how I feel about girls liking girls and I told her that I see no issue with it."

'Sexual immorality' is grounds for dismissal, handbook states
The school's handbook states that "any form of sexual immorality" goes against its beliefs, including "professing to be homosexual/bisexual."
Students who do not "conform to the standards and ideals of work and life" at the school forfeit the "privilege" of attendance, the handbook states.

A 8-year-old girl? My goodness. Where's the innocence?

The puses of religions are erupting everywhere, even at kindergarten schools. The stench is spreading and it ain't good.

I pray that Cloe gets the help that she needs, and that her parents stop exploiting her.
 
Politics is not like a religion for most people. Trumpism is a religion. When you say something negative about Trump, you get angry and emotional responses. They accept no criticism. of the dumbest most corrupt person to sit in the office by accident. I hoped we escaped that tyrant.

I witnessed a teacher break a paddle on a boys backside. Corporal punishment was a norm. “Grab your ankles” is what he yelled. Brutal

In middle school we had one teacher that would grab guys by the side burns & lead them outside to the back of the building.... I don't know if he ever realized the entire Spanish class across from him could see him lifting them up the wall??:laugh:

he wouldn't last a min in today's school.........

Good times. Corporal punishment works with kids that are too stubborn to think for themselves.

My mom got one of the paddles like the one below. She didn't use it much, but did once or twice when my dad completed two one-year tours in Vietnam. She probably got it at Stuckey's on one of our many trips across the country.
