If a principal actually followed through with that conservatives would absolutely poo poo a brick and Rush Limbaugh would be running fundraisers to sue the school for banning Christian student organizations.

The same people sharing that would call him a satanist and run him out of town

They read that, and in their mind they see a big shiny asterisk that explains: "Don't worry, YOUR stuff is still on the Good List. It's just the other beliefs that don't count."

Yeah to them Christian school clubs are just normal, all this disagreement only came about when these other religions started getting in so they must be the problem.

Gods, anytime I see that word in a fantasy novel I cringe. There are literally thousands upon thousands of other words you could use, why hone in on that one?

First, this school will no longer honor race or ethnicity. I could not care less if your racial makeup is black, brown, red, yellow or white. I could not care less if your origins are African, Latin American, Asian or European, or if your ancestors arrived here on the Mayflower or on slave ships. The only identity I care about, the only one this school will recognize, is your individual identity -- your character, your scholarship, your humanity. And the only national identity this school will care about is American.

Gah, I hate this insidious mindset so much. I know rhetorically it's supposed to be some reassurance that Americans are all Rugged Individualists who are inherently equal, but these people have such loaded ideas about what a True American is.

It lets people feign having the moral high ground while still disparaging everyone who doesn't act exactly like they want them to. It's like racists who hide behind MLK. "I'm not judging them by the color of their skin, I'm judging the content of their character! And the content of their character is bad because, um, baggy jeans and swears in their music!"

These are the people who will call YOU a racist for not supporting Diamond and Silk. Because either by intention or not, they don't understand what it means to judge someone by the content of their character.

A vote for a third party candidate is a vote for Trump.

A vote for Biden puts more time on the clock for the US farewell tour before were all crushed under the regime of Dear Leader Tom Cotton.

They think that the original model was a well-compensated and beloved black lady who was only too happy to let white people profit off her likeness for perpetuity, and that we're the real racists for pointing out the inaccuracies in that statement.

That, and ending modern-style sex-ed is one of those things that nobody would actually want when you spell out the realities.

Grandpa Dennis posted:

"No more time will be devoted to scaring you about smoking and caffeine, or terrifying you about sexual harassment or global warming."
and
"No more semesters will be devoted to condom wearing and teaching you to regard sexual relations as only or primarily a health issue..."

So we abandon a generation of good-touch bad-touch or safe-touch unsafe-touch training for kids? Leave them with no social context for sexuality and sexualized behaviors outside of their family and media bubbles? Leave them with no health knowledge about their own bodies beyond some vague or useless abstinence videos which could've aired on Leave it to Beaver?


You'd have a whole crop of kids whose future could easily look the way Qanon people think today is. It sounds like a creepy uncle's paradise, since the kids would probably be too ashamed or afraid or ignorant to know any better.

So hi I'm Devon Weirdlyrich, just drove out from my compound for this PTA meeting and I have some ideas I think will bring a little air of tradition back to our schools


BELL AT 6:30AM
REVEILLE & FLAG RAISING
ENHANCED PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE AND PRAYER TO JESUS CHRIST
GENUFLECTIONS TO TRUMP AND HIS ANOINTED
LAPS
MANDATORY CORPORAL PUNISHMENT
GENDER ASSERTION CLASSES
GUNS (gun safety classes?) NO, JUST GUNS
BALLROOM DANCE

Also I was wondering if we could keep certain students like, separate from others? Not giving them any unequal attention or resources or anything, if that's possible, just I think they're affecting my child's education by being so- so- y'know, loud. So again, equal, but separate. And also again, guns.
