Both Sides: Why we don't fuck with the GOP
- Thread starter donwuan
- Start date
A remarkable thing just happened in a deep red Florida county: For hours on end, teachers, parents, and kids pushed back ferociously against right wing attacks on "woke indoctrination" in their schools.
Ordinary parents everywhere are saying: Enough. 1/

Here in Hernando County, a teacher was punished for showing a Disney movie with a gay character. DeSantis won it by 40 points.
Yet at a school board meeting this week, parents and kids powerfully defended LGBT and teachers under attack from the right. 2/

One teacher told the board that the climate of rage created by the right is driving him out of the profession.
Another teacher said: “I have never seen such fear from my colleagues as I have in the last two months."
Numerous teachers are resigning. 3/

A climate of maximal rage, fear, suspicion and tension among parents and educators is exactly what the reactionary culture warriors want.
At this meeting, the right wingers spewing the usual anti-woke nonsense were loving every second of it. 4/

Parents, teachers and kids are saying to the right: *You* are the real indoctrinators. Stuff like this is happening all over the country, as @onesarahjones reports.
Illinois @GovPritzker is about to sign a law restricting local book banning. 5/

@mentionsHere's some news:
Nine Dem governors have sent a letter to textbook companies, urging them not to cave to pressure from right wing censors, a clear shot at DeSantis.
Dem governors should "reclaim the mantle of core American values," tells us. 6/
@mentionsRelated and important point from : Youngkin's win quickly congealed the conventional wisdom that anti-woke politics is very formidable. A lot of credulous people got snowed by this. The 2022 midterms largely sent the opposite message. 7/
Been like this for a long time....

That motherfucker is doing to CNN what Elon is doing to Twitter. That Trump bullshit was a huge backfiring event. CNN never recover from that bullshit.
File this under “Ya cant make this shit up” section. Smh
Text from the first tweet:
BREAKING: Trump insider drops bombshell, reveals that Ivanka Trump is desperately trying to “rebrand” herself as a Kushner because everyone “loathes” her father Donald — which has already caused her to lose countless “brand deals and friends.”
But it gets even worse for Trump… The insider continues, revealing that Ivanka is “attempting to socially reposition” herself as a Kushner because Kushner “has a more stable brand than Trump” — which has forced Ivanka to “pívot away from her father to save her own struggling brand.
The insider finished, “She’s now a Kushner, and she's not 100% with both feet in the Trump orbit. Jared has his own world and his own orbit — and we all know about his father's own issues, but it's a lot more stable brand, a lot less visible brand. They've got a lot going on over in the Kushner clan.”
We can’t let Ivanka get away with this shameless “rebrand” after she spent four years helping her dad grift a fortune from the Oval Office.
Bingo. A lot of these peoples are 10 times worse then what they think of black hood culture. This is why I always say that the shit they want to pass that hurt black and brown people is going to fuck with them even more.
