A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

How does anyone put up with reading crap like this? Literally every sentence is as shrill and manipulative as they can manage. The author is terrified you might form an opinion of your own.

I probably put more thought into this than I should, but I feel it should be mentioned that this was almost certainly written by a non-american who speaks English as a second language.

Some of the word choices are very telling: "Falangist" and "Mosleyite" are references that, if they were made by an American, would only be made by an American acaademic from one of those "woke" universities, and they certainly wouldn't use these terms incorrectly as this cognitively challenged author does. "Gavage" is an unusual word for most American English speakers. It is originally a French word for force-feeding ducks or geese to make their livers grow enormous and delicious. I believe an American would more likely have said " force feed" or " indoctrinate". Taken together with " tommyrot" -again, not a common americanism- leads me to believe this is someone who learned English in the United Kingdom or from a British teacher/ source materials.

When woke parents, teachers, and judges join forces to gavage "woke" tommyrot into the minds of young kids, it's time to consider the options you have regarding your kids' education.

Now is a good time to remind you that Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.) just signed a law stating that schools need not contact parents if their child decides he wants to cut off his p*nis because he thinks he's a girl that day.

Lmao. Is somebody getting paid to write this stuff? They must be getting paid in rubles.

That kind of anti-trans bigotry has to be against Lemm.ee instance rules.

Here is my problem with cases like this. The family will win the case in court but the people who violated her rights will have no punishment.

The people who keep violating rights should be punished

"B.B.'s mom had no idea the punishment had taken place until another parent told her roughly a year after the woke nonsense took place."

The government should not be keeping secrets from parents.

A child shouldn’t be punished without parental knowledge. Shit I grew up the 80’s and they couldn’t punish you without your parents knowing.

This hidden agenda crap needs to stop
