Imagine imprisoning the people who are responsible for bringing new, functional adults to our society for the inane crime of teaching.
The scary part about it is, they probably don’t believe that is what they’re doing at all. I’d wager almost all of the people getting behind this are people who believe that the responsibility of bringing new, functional adults to society is the sole purview of the church.
Who better to arrest? The Republicans want to infect the minds of the kids and purging/silencing the teachers who don’t comply makes sense.
They are trying to “bring God back into schools”. Ted Cruz’s dad is involved with a PAC that’s trying to via school boards.
Well, when education is kind of a problem for your plans of building a third world country…
I wouldn’t necessarily say third world, as that would imply the rich would be losing money as well, but I understand what you mean.
Although that being said, the richest people on the planet tend to be complete fucking imbeciles themselves (Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Tim Cook, etc.)
Third world countries can have rich people, too. Usually the government officials.
Third world countries have some ridiculously rich people.
Who is ready for FL to just kinda… break away from the continent and sink already? I am.
We should demand a refund of $15 million from Spain and give them Florida back in return. Honestly, it would be worth $15 billion.
Lots of tourists from here in the UK would be very upset at Disneyland sinking :(
Oh no not my fucking consumerism!!!
Fuck off
It was a tongue in cheek comment, jesus
So turn that cheeck
-jesus

I’ve lived in Florida my entire life and my job is to clean the vacation rentals here. I love my UK visitors!! More than happy to accommodate yall!

Good news then. Disney Land is in California.
Disneyland Paris is way closer to the UK
But then you have to interact with the French 😭
From every experience I ha e had with the French, it has always been very pleasant. Rudest people I have met are the Chinese, British and American tourists.

I really don’t like the “haha France 🤢” memeage.
It just seems like holdover from the Iraq invasion when they were, you know, right.
It’s definitely older than that. I remember French jokes going back decades before. They’ve always been a punching bag in America’s eyes. “The French are smelly.” “The French are snobby.” “The French are cowards.” If I had to guess, it probably goes back to WWII and their occupation by the Nazis.
Yeah, they don’t like to talk about the part where France financed the American Revolution.
If Disney world sank it would just be Bioshock.
I’m just loving the AI’s attempts at written language. It’s getting better but it’s still not close.

And it’s so lazy. You could get .pngs of all of that stuff and just stack them up in PS and throw on a sepia filter and it would look better after 5 minutes of work. AIs like this have just made people lazy. I’ve seen people talk about using Chat GPT to do Algebra 1 math. Literally any basic search engine will be just as effective and you might actually learn something but people are so determined to make AI something they can rely on. /rant
I completely agree. My employer has been encouraging the use of chat GPT as a starting point for client deliverables. Since it literally makes things up, you still have to spend time verifying everything, which takes as long or longer than just doing everything yourself, plus you’ll have familiarity for that topic in the future.
Oh no…
Was not expecting that 2nd paragraph.
Here’s the article from the first paragraph: https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/book-bans-florida-public-schools/
Here’s more information on the bottom paragraph: https://firstamendment.mtsu.edu/article/scopes-monkey-trial/
Paragraph: (noun) a distinct section of a piece of writing, usually dealing with a single theme and indicated by a new line, indentation, or numbering.
could you imagine having so much time on your hands that you debase the entire intellectual potential of your tribe, town, city, what have you, just by being a self righteous prick about pieces of paper with words printed on them?
i was just in another thread. and for some reason. people take HUGE offense to being knowledgeable. like if you try to climb out of the ignorant bucket but you almost can’t because the other crabs pull us back down.
you could rape a mans wife, flay his children before his eyes and he wouldn’t lift a finger to object, but say you have a book? and this book teaches you stuff? oh, that’s greater than any sin imaginable (the best part is i didn’t mention what book, but id love to hear everyone’s ‘self righteous’ projections about which one)
I heard this guy talking about the right’s reaction to the pandemic say “This whole new idea of what’s liberty, and liberty for whom can kill. Especially when it replaces the idea of liberty as that which has to be shared in some kind of common good.”
It’s obvious though that it’s not actually a new idea, but I think this cuts to the heart of it. It’s an inherently selfish mindset that is so prevalent on the right. They use the idea of “liberty” as a bludgeon to get what they want by redefining it. Freedom has stopped meaning a group concept and become purely a personal one. Their own wants are the most important thing in all cases. And I want to emphasize want. These aren’t beliefs. They are projecting their desires of the way they would prefer the world and calling them beliefs.
It’s fairly universal, I think, but exemplified in American culture. I could go one about some of the “founding” ideas of the country that have had effects that last to today but I’m talking about freedom today. It was always a selfish idea here (bunch of business men didn’t want to pay taxes) and the end result is before us.
People see a book that makes them uncomfortable - for whatever reason - and just want it removed, regardless of any wider ramifications. They get scared about their own impending doom when a pandemic hits so they seek to remove the fear by the most direct path. Actually solving it is hard, but removing the fear is quick, so they demand that everyone just stop being afraid and stop reminding them of the things they fear. It seems to be a pretty standard through-line for their ethos.
Drrrrrraaamaaaaaaa.
Ok, so we’ve just never followed where the first amendment says there will be no national religion
No, we’re too busy furiously masturbating to the second amendment. After all, that’s the only one that counts!
No you see it wasn’t religious because it didn’t require teaching anything else, just not teaching evolution. Also since some church folk support evolution and other church folk don’t it can’t be religious for that either.
Seriously though, for anyone unfamiliar with Christian dogma, according to them humans were divinely made in God’s image. The state supreme court wasn’t even trying to be impartial.
I guess someone needs to open up a Readeasy…
Thats called piracy
I like this idea.
Some dumb motherfuckers read Fahrenheit 451 and thought “Hey, that sounds like a good idea. Why aren’t we doing that?”
Never change, Florida.

I expect school fire drills are gonna be a bit different now…
Scheduled for 4:51 pm?
The more things change.
Teachers were giving kids actual pornography. Sorry, as a parent, I have a right to demand my children not be taught how to give gay blowjobs with graphic illustrations. You went too far, and now you have to stop. Cry all you want. Most people are not okay with your degeneracy.
Edit: one of the “children’s” books is called “Gender Queer,” and includes graphic illustrations of sex.
Yeah, I’d like to see a source on that one. I find it hard to believe that all teachers were giving children child pornography and that’s what instigated this law.
Doesn’t even pass the sniff test if you think about it for a few minutes.
republicans have the right to be furious about things that aren’t happening, it’s in the Constitution
about things that aren’t happening,
They have their own facts. I get your joke, but boy It’s so depressing how crazy Republicans have become.
But but the litter boxes in schools all across the country?! We have to be furious! Right guys? These things are real and not just a complete fabrication, right?! Oh…
Teachers were giving kids actual child pornography.
You mean the bible?
Not for nothing but gay blow jobs are practically the same as straight ones and I don’t need a book to teach me that. Also heavy doubt that that is the case
No, no. Straight blowjobs don’t exist. It’s eyes closed missionary position, or else straight to hell.
Unless you’re Boebert
I avoid hell by doing it in the ear.
Between a Man and Wife who are only suffering the degeneracy to procreate.
Prove your claim. What book? Where? Or are you just making this up or maybe repeating some bullshit some other moron said?
Yup, you got us! We definitely spend all day trying to get your kid to give gay blowjobs.
I can’t even get these kids to wear deodorant without a parent complaining. You think we’re wasting our time teaching kids how to give a blowjob? Lmfao “You went too far.” Doing what? Did this even happen? Are you super duper sure? Did you check with the people you let think for you?
Cry all you want, most people are not okay with your degeneracy.
What an idiot gay blowjobs are the same as hetero blowjobs… also no source what so ever. I feel sorry for your children growing up with a removed of a parent.
Former child of a removed here. Estrangement is in their future.
Prove it.
if we’re randomly accusing people of being pedophiles without proof, I’d start with the guy bringing up CSAM unprovoked ya know
None of the books being banned are pornographic. Don’t fucking lie to advance your cause of genocide
Bible shows incest, death, and slavery but that’s ok to have in schools. 🙃
Does every banned book teach kids how to give “gay blowjobs?” Lie all you want. Most people are not okay with your bullshit.
Source?
I’d imagine gay blowjobs are the same process as hetero blowjobs.
Hey! No imagination allowed! Cut that out.
Maybe next time try thinking a little more than not at all. What’s the name of the book? Oh you can’t tell me cuz there isnt one. You gobble up this political rhetoric without a second thought cuz thinking is hard.
Please provide a source.
If there is a source, and I’d be shocked if there was, it’s a one off thing that should be dealt with as such. There was absolutely not plural “teachers” defiling our youth with porn in school. This whole thing is fear mongering to create an out group for conservatives to rally against
Yeah, I understand that. It’s the same with the whole kidnapping bs that’s being spouted across social media right now.
Lol, someone came through and down voted instead of actually providing a source.
What is this kidnapping story?
It’s not a story but a bunch of women who claim that someone tried to kidnap them in broad daylight in a busy parking lot. Or tried to grab their kids. It’s always “someone” and never an actual description of a person. All the details are extremely vague. “Oh there was a van following me to my car!” “This guy was following me and he was wearing glasses so I couldn’t see his face!” It’s always these middle class white women too, which human traffickers don’t go after. They’ll take pictures of random vehicles and come up with fake ass stories about how the vehicle was following them, acting weird, blah blah. Oh and they never call the police. They just write long ass posts on social media about what almost happened to them.
Here’s an article on the topic. Idk who the author is, but the article is pretty accurate about what’s going on.
I respect that you’ve provided something to back your claim up, but have you actually seen the uncensored version yet?
It’s not what you’re claiming - it’s about how someone born female has been fantasising what it would be like to have male genitals. The ‘gay blowjob’ is the character finally trying on a strap on - which is pretty obvious in both the text and uncensored image, and then deciding pretty immediately that the fantasy was much better than the reality.
There is a reason that websites are censoring it when they show it, and it isn’t because they’re protecting you. It’s because a half truth is much more powerful than a all-out lie, and by censoring parts out, it allows the readers to fill in the blanks with something much worse. They’re deliberately trying to deceive you, to rile you up, and keep you coming back to them.
Sure if they did I’d agree, but this never ever happened so why do you claim it did?
Oh, so straight blow jobs would be ok?
Who did this? Bullshit.
You are lying
That seems your source sound entirely made up to get a certain delight riled up. I’d you are a victim of this misinformation please do some deeper research. If you’re just a pusher of disinformation I’m really disappointed.
