Okay, so maybe Rob's not a he? I'll assume Rob's not a he from now on then. Good point.

 

I'll assume you're not a he either since you seem adamant on that. Can't be caught doing that.

I identify as light.

Yes, and the right never try and ban things that they find offensive.....:classic_rolleyes:

My question is, why on earth are there more than 800 books dealing with gender identity and sexual orientation in the curriculum?

Thats a grift.

 Yes for sexually explicit material, it says right in the first sentence.

 

....and books that depict racism....because that might upset white kids:

Included on the list: Me and Earl and the Dying Girl, Ghost Boys, When Wilma Rudolph Played Basketball, White Bird, Ground Zero.....and Michelle Obama: Political Icon. (you get one guess why a parent wanted this one banned)

 

Look them up.

At the end of the day, it's just people with extreme ideas, but can't provide any logic or much of anything to back up those ideas.

 

Of course, they're too bull-headed to see where they've gone wrong. Instead, they probably think we're all "leftist idiots" or something along those lines.

I'm with you, but 'we' are all pretty bull-headed too.  🙂 

 

Maybe I should just speak for myself and not lump anybody else in, but I am Taurus.

Oh the book thing again....mice of men, Huckleberry Finn, Dr Seuss

 

Remember the other day when I posted a few pages out of one of the books the GOP were able to get off the shelves and out of the hands of 12 and 13 year olds?  I was flagged and penalized because I posted pornographic material lol.  Whoops

 

I posted a link for your boy Rob. Check it out.

Weird child sexualization agenda that I can't quite figure out.  What is with the grooming?  Why do drag queens need to be half naked and twerking to help teach borderline toddlers about their sexuality? 

 

Oh, and why am I a bigot for questioning this?

I do notice a bit of "bull-headed". It's why I tend to try a softer approach and ask questions and try to actually understand the other side (it's why I felt Antifa didn't matter, assume "bad" for the time being, try to understand their side)...

 

... that is if the other side is even willing to provide their logic. 🤔

Ok,  I'll need some proof before I believe that one.   They are half naked and twerking?

Also, so you're for drag queens teaching toddlers about their sexuality provided they're not half naked and twerking?

Lol man, you don't really have much of a clue of what's been going on eh.  Not trying to sound rude by saying that either.

 

Why don't you just go to YouTube and type it in? Grab some popcorn and enjoy the weird liberal child grooming show

 

I don't want to risk being penalized for posting any pornographic material  even though it's just normal stuff from the left

 Thats how insane this argument has become. What will get you flagged on social media as porn is being peddled in the schools. 

What about that planned parenthood card fiasco in Sask. Funny how the people that like these books don't bring that up. 

I saw the cards on twitter, this dishonest news outlet just showed you the B bi card, A stood for auto-felacio and showed a cartoon character doing just that.

Extremely perverse minded people that would come up with that crap. Every type of degeneracy is in there, this report is misleading, once again. Planned parenthood is NOT Canadian. Its from the states.

I admit have I've never really been pro drag queen.  Certainly not as a lifestyle but neither as an art form or entertainment or whatever the hell it is.

 

When the whole drag queen reading session thing came up I wondered what they were out to achieve.   Maybe they just want people to know they are humans too, and that the world is full of all kinds of people, and that assumptions should not be made about certain types of people until you get to know them.

 

As far as that post went,  I just thought that no matter how you feel about drag queens reading to kids, to describe them all as half naked and twerking was a bit of a stretch.

Haha sorry, that wasn't really intended to be at you. The way Wigguns worded it it sounds like he was still pro-drag queen in schools even though I'm sure his whole point was to be against that. I was trying to jump in on the questioning really.

 

I have to admit. I never thought this would be the conversation I'd have on Christmas Eve.

Opinions again.   In my opinion, that post was a bunch of nonsense.   (Not trying to sound rude...)

Truce, don't want to be banned. That was Dr. Steve Brule, you look a bit like him.

 

You know who owns that adult swim who hosts that show? The same person who owns CNN whom you criticized earlier.

 

Amazing how things come full circle, huh?

You'd be correct as JJJJS owns neither.

 

(edited because I need to look up Ted Turner more who founded CNN)
