  Everything “for the kids” has been bad.

      Turns out it was all a ruse to implement mass surveillance, authoritarianism, and fascism.

      Well that’s because Wu-Tang isn’t “for the kids” they’re “for the children.”

  Under the current regime it will be used to suppress discussion of all things LGBTQ+, particularly transgender identity and healthcare, women’s rights and healthcare, Black history, indigenous history, Israel’s genocide of Palestinians, immigration, police abuses, and so on.

  This is absolutely the worst time for such a bill, so of course it has a better chance of succeeding than ever before.

    I feel before the late 60s would also be a time this bill would pass pretty easily. Ppl really need to recognize this brand of fascism is nothing new in west. Historically it’s pretty damn normal

  Simply abandon the US and move the forum to civilization.

    Yep, being under US jurisdiction is like being under any other autocracy’s jurisdiction now.

  They are trying to push through KOSA again? They didn’t even change the name.

  • Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world ⁨10⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Why bother spending time and effort changing the name when there are women and minorities to oppress??? Think it through man!

      Just look at them, sitting there, not getting punched by cops. Is that the world you want to live in, son?
