@Biff@Cousin_Isobel@GrumpyOldNurse@HebrideanHecate@LaylaAlexandrovna As long as this isn't their own children and they aren't personally impacted, then they are indeed willing to sacrifice everyone else's girls. Lest they be seen as a bad word or ousted from their comfy position. Although I wouldn't put it past them to not be paying attention to what happens to their own children nor to believe them if they do speak up.
@sim@GrumpyOldNurse@HebrideanHecate@LaylaAlexandrovna Right. I’d misread @Biff ‘s post. I thought she was asking what Dems would sacrifice for their girls. They will sacrifice their girls. They really aren’t trying to protect them, and seem to think all this is fine.
@GrumpyOldNurse@HebrideanHecate@LaylaAlexandrovna I think you’re right about the local Democrats, @Cousin_Isobel. They are so smug and self-righteous about being on the “right” side that they have suspended critical thinking. If it’s Blue, it has to be Good. But what happens when their girls are assaulted in mixed gender facilities? How much are they willing to sacrifice their girls for the tribe?
@HebrideanHecate@LaylaAlexandrovna Where others see pedos, I tend to see – at least in the U.S. – a very, very top-down Democratic Party agenda that probably has a direct connection to the agenda of the Liberal party of Canada and other parties worldwide, going all the way up to the United Nations. I don’t fully understand it and I usually assume it is about money, but there could be a more personal (pedo-driven) agenda, as well. It would just have to come from way, way up. The Democrats on the school boards in my area are often women who are probably not pedophiles. In the exact district where I live, I see the Democrat candidates basically running on issues handed down to them from at least a state level, and they get in because most people just always vote Democrat here. These women, and some men, are forcing mixed-sex restrooms and locker rooms on our girls, and I can’t think of any possible reason for it except party politics. I think it’s the same with books. The Democratic Party line is that we have to have porn in schools or else we will be guilty of “book bans,” and nearly everyone, all the way down the line parrots it.
@LaylaAlexandrovna Remember when conversations about teens and obscene content were mostly about what kids were allowed to watch at home? Parents would discuss what is appropriate. Everything has changed in such weird ways. We didn’t think we had to worry about schools. I know there was controversy about teaching about birth control, but not disgusting, graphic content.
@Cousin_Isobel@Biff@GrumpyOldNurse@HebrideanHecate@LaylaAlexandrovna We have seen this time and time again in politics. People come second to the ideology, to the party line. If their party has been captured as indeed they have and so much of the mainstream has... they will follow the funding and lobbying. Right now that leads to social justice, to dividing on identity politics lines. By people deluded into thinking that they are doing the right thing by forcing change onto the rest of us, that they are the saviours that must make us change.
