    She’s naive, but let’s not make a mountain out of a molehill. Who cares about a small flag in the classroom?

    I care about the "And if a student has a problem with it then they can find a different teacher" line.
    I missed that line. I just heard her bullshit about the flag being a symbol that the gay students are safe and that she didn’t want to make it a big deal.

    I guess going on social media to get “atta girls” made it a somewhat big deal. I still stand by my opinion that most of this is click baity, Twitter debates, and adults using this as a political weapon. It barely exists in real life.
    So you have kids in school right now?
    I’ve commented on this before. I do and he wouldn’t even know what the fuck we were talking about. If he did, he wouldn’t care. Luckily he doesn’t go to a super woke school where this stuff seems to be happening.

    He’s never mentioned anything like this to me and has done well in school since he started. I have no complaints.

    Consider yourself lucky. The woke shit in our district is very much in kids faces.

    There are tons of teachers like this. Some have social justice standards. TUSDumb changed the curriculum. Basically it was too white... They have middle school kids reading that fraud Ibram X. Candy. It's not isolated.

    Thank goodness Netflix wised up and decided not to continue development of his “Anti-racist Baby.” I wish that phone call would make its way to the public square.

    I know. And same back to you. I’m just not up in arms about this yet. It shouldn’t be happening at all, but whacky shit has always happened on this country. If and when I see it happening frequently, I will have a problem with it.

    Edit: fucked up the quote so I tagged you. It was about being too cool to stand up to evil.

    @RaceBannon, you pick and choose what is a big deal and what isn’t pretty often. Headlines and hot topics are often misleading.

    January 6th wasn’t a huge tragedy and our democracy wasn’t almost stolen. Blacks don’t get hunted down for sport by police. Headlines and political folks won’t shut the fuck up about trans-rights even tho that is less than 1% of the population. White supremacy, blah, blah. I don’t need to have a strong stance on everything, because a lot of it is pumped up, media created bullshit.

    I’m on your side with this. I agree with a lot of your views on here. The dumb fuck left has made it very hard to support them and I can’t any longer.

    It has obviously happened in some schools. Is it some rampant problem that is ruining the kids? I have my doubts and haven’t seen it myself. Controversy and debate is what gets the clicks and the viewers.

    I’m of the age where a lot of friends of mine have school aged kids, along with myself. And this shit doesn’t come up, probably because it doesn’t happen very often in real life. I don’t have anyone I would consider woke in my circle.

    Pretty rampant here in "republican" orange county bc all the teachers are democrats and not the tuff logging camp kind.

    I've watched my nephews go through it in even redder inland empire.

    The older one leaked a bunch of his "secret woke education" he wasn't supposed to share or make public. Pretty proud of him.

    When parents demanded to see the curriculum the district tried to force them to sign an NDA to be able to review it.

    Tell me what curriculum at a public school shouldn't be public knowledge?

    Agreed that you are a reasonable guy @RoadDawg55 but just because you are lucky enough to be in a district without this garbage doesn't mean that it isn't happening.

    I have A LOT of friends i grew up with who are teachers. Some of them ARE these liberal wackos in all honesty. It's the effects of the echo chamber. They think it's normal.

    The problem is that they are in a position of influence and authority with a captive audience. "Punching down" as @TheKobeStopper would like to say.

    The effect of that is that one teacher can have an outsized influence on literally thousands of kids, create a consensus, and have institutional power backing them while being able to silence any opposition.

    Doubly so in states where being a part of the LGBTQIA2+ mafia makes you a protected class. What's that? The biology teacher said there's only 2 genders in mammals? Slap them with a harassment complaint and watch the investigations roll for 2 years. God help the student that doesn't call you by zhe/zhem who doesn't have a union to protect them.

    Tldr this shit is happening in parts of the country even if it isn't your experience that it is.
