    Until the pendulum swings, like it always does, and the right wing grabs hold of all of these tools that the left has created. And then you’ll be told that you have no choice regarding the changes they will make. It’s best to leave that authority with parents.

      What in the country fried fuck are you talking about? Do you honestly believe that conservative teachers aren’t already doing this? There is no pendulum. Conservatives attempt every trick they can come up with to sneak their ideology into classrooms.

      Oh no, God forbid the right gets a hold of checks notes gender fluidity.

      Everything is a tool to authoritarians, it doesn’t mean we should stop making tools.

            No, let’s move ahead carefully to not fall over and slide further back down the hill.
