There is only one extreme. You're showing that extreme with this important news story. The extreme end of this is 3 parents causing the removal of a school principle because of their EXTREME opinions about a sculpture. The principle, teachers, school, library books, classes, etc. are not extreme or at fault in any way whatsoever. And this christo-fascist minority fucking up the lives of others is becoming a global problem. Those fascists are the only extreme. Sorry - I feel really strongly about this, and it's why I appreciate you sharing this news. We should highlight these abuses more often.

You don't think teaching kindergartners there is 30 genders is extreme? I'm confused

kindergartners

30 genders

These are the assumptions of extremists. I hear this kind of argument from an older, close family friend who only watches Fox. She defines abortion as: giving birth to a healthy baby and then immediately killing it. She defines teachers as groomers. She defines anything left of fascism as extremist.

This extremist attack against the school by 3 parents is unrelated to kindergartners or the notion of teaching 30 genders, or indeed the dangers of reading a book about Rosa Parks (continuously banned in Florida and elsewhere).

6th graders (11 - 12 year-olds) were shown a sculpture of Michelangelo's David. The other 2000+ parents of the students were not bothered in the least, perhaps because they know their kids aren't think about sex when they see a naked person. To assume this is itself a form of pedophilia: the assumption that children have adult sexual interests. Kids are curious about nudity, but they - before the age of 15 or 16 - are NOT turned on by it, at least not in the way adults are. Jean Piaget explained this rather well in the mid-20th century. Pedophiles do however assume that children have sexual desires. That's extreme, as is this attack by 3 pedophile-minded parents.

Yes, I am in total agreement about the fascism of the right about anything sex related, no argument from me.

However, I do think that teaching non-scientific gender ideology to young grade schoolers is ideological indoctrination (not grooming, grooming is when you indoctrinate someone and try to fuck them yourself) in the same way as if the Christians wanted to teach Intelligent Design instead of evolution. Both are based on an ideology rather than any sort of objective science. This is extreme ideology based rhetoric and has no place in schools in my mind.

Now a further problem I see, is that doubling down on this nonsense has riled up the Christians and made them more obsessively bigoted against homsexuals and gay marraige than they were before. The reaction to this extreme woke ideology is a reactionary turn towards puritanism, because the magatards now think gay marriage and naked people are a slippery slope to trans ideology, many users here have made this argument to me. In my mind this is definiitly contributing to more radicalism of the type we do not like to double down on this woke bullshit
