    I was on board until I heard it was the far right, those guys and uniforms have a bad history.

      Allow us to tackle inequality by forcing poor families to buy expensive uniforms from our selected supplier.

      Please ignore all our financial links with said supplier.

        Uniforms do equalise kids. As a former teacher, I’m pro uniform.

            I mean… that’s not a right. Are you very young perhaps? It can seem difficult as a kid to deal with but as an adult it’s easier to see the benefits. There’s a lot of studies on the improvements made by lessening the differences between the kids.

              I’m several years out of the education system and fuck that noise. I’d be interested to see your studies, as a kid I faced mild bullying and always wore cheap clothes but there was never a causal link.

              To me this uniform craze is 20 % well-intentioned-but-mostly-useless and 80 % old reactionaries trying to gain a sense of control over the youth (and society in general) which is just another symptom of the societal illness that is bringing back fascism (not that uniforms are inherently fascist… but fascists LOVE uniforms).

                  Both studies focus on the perception of the issue, not on hard numbers on bullying. What I was looking for are, if cases of bullying drop when school uniforms are introduced.

                    I mean, can you get hard numbers on bullying? It’s not a black and white situation. If someone feels that they’re being bullied then they are. The American study shows that pupils feel that there’s less bullying. If you want to design your own study then you can, but I’m not sure how.

                There are definitely school uniforms in Germany.

                    So it’s against your constitution but also done in many places? That makes no sense at all. It doesn’t appear to be against the constitution at all. Can you point out where it bans school uniforms? Or indeed uniforms in general which are pretty common.
