Everything you need to know about the ‘one million march for children’ to stop the ‘indoctrination of children in public schools’
Who is behind them? Um… Conservatives. All of them.
Conservatism is hate. Nearly every act of domestic terrorism in North American history has been committed by conservatives. Nearly every act of racism, bigotry, misogyny, transphobia, homophobia, xenophobia and anti-semitism ever committed in our planet’s history has been committed by conservatives.
Teach your children why it is inappropriate to make friends with, keep relationships with or do business with conservatives. Marginalize hate by marginalizing the hate group.
Left leaving people believe that every human is worth the same - right leaning people draw lines and exclude people from that equal group.
The more often they draw the line against a part of the population most people aren’t part of the more likely is it that they manage to convince one of those that it’s actually worth it for them to agree with those divisions
Marginalize hate by becoming hate.
Teaching children to hate, especially dogmatic hate, is disgusting even when one’s stance is morally correct. If a stance is just, then by teaching children ethics and critical thinking they will come to the correct conclusion on their own. When one uses the exact same playbook as the worst parts of the group they hate, they become the worst part of the group they represent.
Since some people don’t seem to realize what a bigot actually is:
bigot - bĭg′ət - noun - One who is strongly partial to one’s own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.
Edit: Phrasing, mostly replacing the word “you” with generic pronouns.
You are mistaken. I am not espousing “intolerance of those who differ”. I am espousing intolerance of a group of deadly dangerous bigots who demonize anyone who is not in their group. Do not equivocate the haters and their victims who reject them. That is a tactic of the conservatives.
When you name yourself @Burn_The_Right, you make it clear whether you are targeting a specific group or everyone in a certain political direction.
When you make statements like:
Biden is a neo-liberal. Neo-liberals are conservatives. They are better dressed and more intelligent, but they are conservatives by all international measures.
Or dismiss 40-year democrats as conservatives:
Who are you calling “we”? A quick check of your comment history shows you are a conservative.
You make it clear whether you mean a single group or everyone who doesn’t share your brand of liberalism.
Combined with:
Conservatism is the biggest threat to humanity on planet earth. All means to extinguish an infestation are justified.
or this gem: Edit: fixed broken link.
Not everyone is willing to do what’s necessary to cure the disease. I am willing. If that makes me a monster, then I am the monster they themselves created.
Conservatism is a plague of oppression and death.
You can pretend that you are not an intolerant bigot advocating for mass-murder, but your own words betray you.
Reading through the constant fountain of hate that you spew in your comments makes it clear just how big of a problem Lemmy has right now. The vast majority of you comments are pushing for at least two-thirds of society to be “extinguished”.
I have seen whole instances defederated for having a user say less violent and bigoted things than your comments do.
Is this the centrist part, where some violence is ok?
I learned at a young age that hating someone is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.
I feel the same disdain towards someone who would suggest we eradicate people because of their skin color or ethnic background as I do towards someone that would suggest that we eradicate people because of their political views.
The difference being, I have never encountered anyone in real life or on Lemmy who would openly admit to being a nazi, whereas I have never spent an hour on Lemmy without seeing someone who thinks its okay to unironically say, “kill conservatives” or “eat rich people” receive overwhelming positive votes.
Teaching children to hate? Where did that come from?
This is about teaching children how to recognize hate and avoid making hate part of their lives. It’s education and boundaries. Discretion isn’t hate.
You don’t teach children to recognize hate by pointing at everyone right of middle and saying, those are bad people. That is how you teach hate itself.
It’s time people started learning about the groups that create such events. This is all funded by the Tanton network, and they ship in professional protestors to participate, same as in antichoice marches, where they fly them in from the US.

I doubt they will have much of an impact at all. That said, I hope that most Canadians are repulsed by this kind of behavior and vote against it.
(Because there are some iffy sources on lemmy, I tend to look up their reputability online. Here’s this one:
If you think these people don’t have any impact, you’ve not been paying attention to your neighbours to the south (or to us over the pond, or to anywhere where trans and other queer people are being targeted, really)
I meant these marchers, which seem disorganized and relatively few people. The overall trend, rightwing extremism, is a worldwide problem whose flames were fanned by Russia and China. The American brand of right wing BS is particularly destructive and infectious though. I know it, I moved from a place getting infected by it to a place where people like me (bi) are safer.
UK seems to be on a similar path, unfortunately. Though it’s a slightly different take on it.
I feel like I need to defend us a little: US is pretty well split between two extremes right now, and you mostly read about this in the 1/3 of states that are highly conservative.
Even in Florida, with all its faults, all its hatred, it’s corrupt government, it’s attacks on education …… a buddy in mine living in a community with a high percentage of lgbt folk, says it really doesn’t affect them directly. I’d worry more about raising kids there
US is pretty well split between two extremes right now
I’m curious what you think the extreme is on the other end of the spectrum from right-wing bigotry, because usually folks who say this label the “trans and gay people exist, are people, are not all pedophiles, and deserve the same human rights and basic decency as anyone” contingent as the other extreme, somehow.
Lmfao, do as much mental gymnastics as you like, that doesn’t change reality, nor make the US defensible in any way shape or form.
says it really doesn’t affect them directly
and that right there is the problem - that you (and your friend) only see an issue once it does.
Maybe try taking your head out of that rotten “standing up for my country” sand and actually try listening more to those already impacted, because I guarantee there are many, they wholeheartedly disagree with you, and it isn’t stopping with them.
“For the children” “to restore parental rights” ahh, right so you mean AGAINST the children. Easy mistake to make.
