Hope hexbear doesn’t overcorrect in the other direction on this one. Public (ie most publicly available) Education has been hamstrung for decades in service of private profit, and as a result, students have having a more difficult time learning and behaving in an academic setting.

There's a lot of power and money behind private and charter schools (Bill Gates comes to mind), and weakening public schools is key to that. Privatization heads drool over public schools.
And the reddit posters are probably making accurate observations but formulating poor explanations.
