It’s not so bad if you can condition the kiddos to think it’s normal when they’re young!
It worked for Priests, Spartans, and now the Alphabet mob, too.
Really, though, no kids are spending time reading books in the libraries - they’re just scrolling endlessly on TikTok like their dipshit parents are.
Why we’re even talking about it is beyond me.
I’d like to see our school systems nationwide bring up their scores on reading, math & english before they start addressing intensly devisive and extremely subjective topics like anal rape.
All of the classic readers already include built in morality plays which can and should be explored.
The banned books argument is a strawman at best because that simply means they will be removed from the school systems library. It doesn’t say anything about the millions of books in existence that arent, and never will be included in any school libraries. It’s just useless noisy pants shitting that distracts from what should be a nationwide source of real shame- the abysmal state of so many schools.
Schools that would like to insist thatkids need exposed to much more adult oriented and intense subjects sound like every asshole that can’t strike an arc that says “Doesn’t matter. I’m gonna do underwater anyways” like they’ll be so much better under even more stress and with an infinitely greater number of factors to manage.
Agreed. And aside from basic proficiency I would like to see effort and energy put in to workforce readiness as an option alongside college preparedness vs exploring the concept of anal rape. I still have years ahead of me, but I have yet to encounter a situation professionally or even generally where a well thought out opinion of anal rape was important.
This is a type of “progressive” thinking I can get behind. And it’s actually useful:
Neither do individuals.
Agreed. Engenders so much emotional handwringing, which I will cynically say is the main point -distraction and obfuscation of meaningful issues.
Like this:
Hey look, a puppy!
Teaching kids to be employees is very progressive.
Do you believe school and ultimately govt authority supersede parental?
I fundamentally believe humans are good and try to do good, but that their logic or reasoning can be flawed.
I believe that government is neither good nor tries to do good.
It’s also useful.
I’m not opposed to introducing entrepreneurial categories either. Conceptualizing, research & planning, fund pitching, loan structuring, execution and so on. Much more useful than anal rape.
Do I believe that is a fact? Yes, because it is. The government can take your kids away.
It should even supercede parental authority over themselves. No matter the question, the answer is more government.

Thank you, Watson.
Let me rephrase.
Do you believe govt should be a higher authority in a child’s life, and specifically for education and curriculum content decisions, than a parent?
I believe the government is fucking stupid and should stop taxing my income.
That describes the Mongols and the sack of Baghdad.
The same government made up of humans and elected by humans.
Welcome to the real world, kiddo. It will be fun to watch your stances change over time.
Given the path you are trying to blaze for yourself, you better start voting differently lol.
This is you doing your usual bullshit to fill another boring Monday night.
You have no position.
It’s the highest authority in all of our lives.
What does this mean? Parents should get together and create the curriculum?
I take it you are no longer voting blue?
Glad to see you turning the corner.
*I fuckin hate republicans too, btw. I’m just more aligned with them than I am with the lefties.
This is what you say when I expose the holes in your arguments.
