So here is something to just consider or think about with all of the stuff you are hearing about or reading about in the news. This all has to do with the "groomers", Disney, "dont say gay bill", etc.
Now just think about this. Some of the elected officials who are outcrying about all of this and say KIDS or CHILDREN or even YOUNG TEENS have a right to know about their sexuality or "transition", take puberty blockers, etc. These same people who are advocating for this in young kids, adults, etc. Are also screaming that an 18 year old isn't responsible enough to sign up for a loan for college. (CANCEL STUDENT DEBT CROWD)
Honestly.... think about it. They are saying kids are responsible enough to make life altering decisions about their bodies or sexuality. Yet are not responsible enough to take out a loan for education.
Honestly discuss this or is the merits are good or bad.
Ken if you do read this. I would like to hear your opinion about the whole FL bill about not teaching anything sexual or sexuality in grades k-3. I would love the opinion from a former educator.
Side note or side discussion.
I was watching a program where a comedian Samantha Bee. Anyways she was going off on how "The right" is banning books that talk about race and what not. WHO BANNED BOOKS ABOUT DR. SUESS? Who tried to ban HUCK FINN and what not because of "words" used. I think even when we discussed the book bans on here I was saying it is a slippery slope. Because once you ban one... opens the door for people to ban any books. Remember the people who wanted to ban these books said they were "racially insensitive" or "racial stereotypes". What do you think some CRT books talk about or push. Same type of things. Some of the books want people to feel guilty about their race, push stereotypes, etc.
Just another thing to think about is all.
This kind of goes along with Elon Musk buying a controlling portion of twitter stock. Some people are freaking out about this. Many workers at twitter are freaking out. WHY? If what twitter was doing is on the up and up with its censorship, shadow banning, banning, etc. Nothing to worry about... correct? BTW... Elon Musk is far from being a "right wing" nut. Also on this topic many are saying or tweeting for Musk to "re-instate" Trump to twitter. I say... no... first figure out if they were doing things shady about the banning and what not. Fix algorithms, fix policy, etc. Then possibly re-instate Trump. Re-instating Trump should be down on his list of things to "look at" with twitter/social media. That is just my opinion. Look to see if they were crushing freedom of speech and what not.
Like always discuss or reply.
