'Drag Queens in elementary schools' An issue that makes you look just as stupid as the repubs and their extremes, which was the original point on both sides......Great avoidance of common sense, though....With no salad served....

Tell me I'm a bigot for using common sense and challenging your lack of it.....

Wanna put drag queens reading in elementary schools to nationwide vote?

How's about dems put it on their platform and campaign on the subject...

How about a stand alone bill

Go on CNN and MSNBC, Advocate!!

Better yet hows about they sneak it through in some buried legislation....

Wanna just take a poll.....

Even among teachers

Even among dums

Somehow I think I be on the side of consensus,,, Overwhelming consensus

So, Why not run down and protest at your local elementary schools!

This a gotta see.....

Now tell me I'm a bigot for using common sense and challenging your lack of it.

Dems like repubs, dont care about the kids, they care about political agenda with the kids caught in the middle.....Dumbasses one and Dumbasses all....

Very lengthy review of the book. I posted just the last few paragraphs from the review.

‘Stolen Youth’: The Anti-Woke Book That’s Afraid of Everything

IT’S CALLING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE!

Who needs facts, accurate sourcing or a basic understanding of the modern world when you’re trying to scare the shit out of parents?


https://www.thedailybeast.com/stolen-youth-the-anti-woke-book-thats-afraid-of-everything?ref=home




Mandel lamented that Disney “spends the majority of its time not on content, but on [Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion].” Does she honestly believe that a multi-billion dollar company is spending “the majority of its time” on something that doesn’t directly make it money?

And this IS the description of the hysteria laden fact challenged posts on this subject that we read from some who post here.

If this all reads as obsessively nitpicky, it is. But to read Stolen Youth is to experience death by 1,000 spatters of bullshit, every anecdote recounted with key facts removed, most conclusions an exercise in missing the point, much of the supporting documentation unreliable or hacky. It is a greatest hits of Fox News lower-third chyrons but lacking the punch, offering no particularly original insight. Instead, we get sloppy half-truths, reckless hyperbole, and an open contempt for educators, child-care providers, librarians, pediatricians, and, at the end of the book, the ability of their own children to think for themselves upon encountering complicated moral ideas.

For the intended audience of Stolen Youth, “woke” is the perfect uber-villain for a confederacy of aggrieved would-be bullies. It is the Babadook beneath the stairs. It is the murderer who writes, “Aren’t you glad you didn’t turn on the lights?” in blood on the wall of a pitch black dorm room. It is a campfire story for puritanical adult dweebs who are scared of everything and are willing to blame everything but themselves on their own growing irrelevance.
