If you’re trying to claim neutrality while complaining that a news article is being uncharitable to prageru, you’re either extremely uninformed or extremely disingenuous.
My issue was with the article, not the position. It wasn’t informing. It was pandering. After watching the video I am better informed about the counterpoint to my own beliefs.
And don’t listen to me, a random Lemmy user, but my take was that it was a terrible argument and I was offended by it. I worry that this is what is being promoted as material suitable for educational purposes.
I’m not sure why you’re being so heavily downvoted, you’re absolutely right. Neither the Yahoo article nor the Guardian article it’s based on did the legwork to back up the premise. To drown out the misinformation, journalists need to bring the facts, else they leave the narrative open to bad faith criticism. I don’t see where you’ve advocated for the morons in the least, just asked that journalist’s do their jobs.

Sorry, I’m clearly doing a terrible job making my point.
So instead, I just did a quick search. If the person writing the article included this information I would never had said anything.
Here’s the animation produced by PragerU and enforced for the Florida school’s curriculum:

And here’s a more thorough article with facts and details, that does beyond calling a Reddit user and expert for a clickbait headline:
