Do you have kids in school? I do, and there is no indoctrination except the pledge of allegiance. If you object to what the school teaches, the remedy open to you is homeschooling, not trying to strong-arm the school down to the lowest common denominator.
And if you’ve ever had to do child sexual abuse/trafficking awareness training you would have learned that the risk to kids comes from people the adults trust. The preacher, the camp counselor, uncle. Not drag queens reading library books to families. That harms nobody. If you don’t want to attend, don’t.
Libraries, the ones my tax dollars support, should be free from religious control. Separation of church and state is constitutionally mandated. Again, if you object to this you have churches, church schools, and homeschooling, all of which are allowed. You are allowed your beliefs and biases, but not to push your restrictions on everyone else.
You whined that the school didn’t allow your “we support cops for murdering black people” flags. Maybe they respected the US flag more than those who keep desecrating it into the fascist thin blue line flag.
EDIT: Also, the BLM protests happened when schools were closed due to Trump’s shitty mishandling of the pandemic. And most of the protests happened during summer. Do you think schools go all out for decorating and events during remedial summer classes? You were just making shit up because you wanted to pretend that you’re persecuted.
Not you. I responded to TheMage. After some digging around in the modlog, it looks like he’s been banned instancewide for being a bigoted conspiracy turd. Don’t know how it got to your inbox.
That would be my guess as well. Apologies for the hostility. It was misdirected, either by an error on my part or by some sort of weird lemmy comment bug.

It’s nice to know that in addition to hating LGBTQ people, you also love it when cops murder unarmed black people for you.

Me? You respond to wrong comment?

I didn’t get a notification, but when I opened it, it looked like a reply to me. Probably more to do with things looking odd after the ban.

Agreed. Politicians should 100% stay the fuck away from the school curriculum. Just let teachers do their job.
