Re the VoteVets cartoon: I'm in favor of "trying to ban the teaching of systemic racism". However, teaching about systemic racism should not be banned.

Prepositions matter.

I'm reasonably sure this is satire but it's gotten awfully hard to tell the difference over the last several years.

Yeah, I didn't like the wording either but I got the gist so I posted it anyway.

Off Topic
I guess I never thought about it..
The main difference between of and about is that the preposition of implies a possessive quality while the preposition about implies concerning or on the subject of something. The two prepositions of and about are among the top misused terms in English.

Sorry, I didn't take it as criticism but grammatical errors in memes are a bit of a pet peeve of mine. The ones that start with something like "Republicans be like..." make me a little crazy(er). I don't know that I've ever posted one of those because of it.
