Title: First Grader Guilty of "Misgendering"
Post by: Ben on August 26, 2017, 10:34:44 AM
Seriously??? Firstly, a first grader is supposed to be able to process "misgendering"? Secondly, a first grader is supposed to be able to sexually identify themselves?

This runs right past WTF all the way to "sick".

Oh ... THAT school.

Quote
The incident occurred at Rocklin Academy, a school roiled by controversy after a kindergarten teacher led an in-class discussion on transgenderism that included a “gender reveal” for a little boy who was transitioning to a little girl.

The only surprise is that the school still has any students.

What’s happening at Rocklin Academy is an example of how schools have become indoctrination grounds for the LGBT agenda.

And the only way to stop the indoctrination is for moms and dads to take a stand.

Obviously, all grammar students must now use only the gender-neutral pronoun, "it," in referring to schoolmates, and should avoid addressing any schoolmate by name. "Hey you" is gender-neutral.

Now we know why Clint Eastwood was "the man with no name" in all those spaghetti westerns -- he had a gender identity crisis.

Heinlein's "Crazy Years" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Future_History_(Heinlein)), are right about now.  If we survive (I'm not at all sure about that) we'll look back at this era as insane.

It.  That.   A marriage ceremony between "Thing 1" and "Thing 2".

I was thinking that just the other day when I made the mistake of listening to the news on the way home from work.

I don't think we need to "look back" to see this era as insane.

I'm starting to think that we need an actual, for reals existential threat so this country has to focus on that and has no time or inclination for this other nonsense.

Don't worry. Focusing on insanity like this will ensure we do.

You didn't know that sickos, perverts, and crazy people have kids they send to school?

This country already faces an existential threat.  For decades it has been losing a war to an inexorable enemy, the Free Stuff Army.  While fighting this war the FSA has created another existential threat to the nation: an unsustainable debt that can never be repaid.  The Republic is doomed.

I have to agree. The polly-tishuns won't even address it, and they cover it up. Periodically there's talk about "deficit reduction," but I can't recall any talk of "debt reduction." The problem with "deficit reduction" is that any deficit in one year's budget still increases the debt. So all "deficit reduction" means is that we're not going to increase the debt by as much this year as we did last year. This is why there needs to be (but never will be) a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution, and a line item in the federal budget for paying down the interest on the national debt.
