Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

What the hell are you even talking about? Do you think school boards will replace math, reading and science with gender equality lessons?

No. I think they're replaced with instruction on transitioning, cross dressing, gender questioning and queer ideological pushes. If you want to teach kids to cross dress, you gotta cut into some other instruction, do you disagree?

If that were the case you obviously got a shitty education, because you don’t seem to have even a basic understanding of tolerance or compassion

Because I don't care that people are straight, or gay or cross dress or a different race, I don't have tolerance? Because I treat every individual, regardless of differences, the same, I don't have compassion?

Yes, let’s teach kids not to bully anyone…

Sweet, now we can teach kids how to read because inner city kids have the reading levels of neanderthals.

Yes, I feel bad for being an ignorant kid.

So you're forcing your think on everyone elses kids because you can't come to grips that you were an asshole.

There’s no “agenda”.

Never said there was.

Kids aren’t being “indoctrinated” or “groomed”.

If I took your kid into a room, at threat of calling CPS on you, and taught them that they should cross dress, is that indoctrinating or grooming?

Sorry you have trouble with it. Maybe if you had had someone to teach you these basic concepts you wouldn’t find it so icky

I don't find it 'icky', believe it or not, I don't like all the same things you do. I've been to some drag brunches and queer bars and what not, not my thing, most of it I think is weird. But do I have a bias against it or find it 'icky'? Nah. That's the problem with you and all your far left friends here, if someone doesn't agree 100% with the shit y'all do, you think we're bigots and hate the people that do it. I don't, it's just not my vibe. I also don't think catholic church is my vibe, but I'm fine with the folk.
