I would bring a kid to disabled story time. Kids should learn about various types of people...if it's age appropriate 🙂

1. Well i think there's more to it than that. 2. Ok 3. Well in certain instances yes you have to protect children from very harmful parenting. Where that line is, it's debatable and tough sometimes, like all grey area. 4. But there's also videos of drag story time where the hosts feature nutty or even outright sexual content, so it happens. You should be adult about any protests you do about anything, especially around children. I also don't want to live in a society where drag queens reading to kids is totally unchallenged. The same sensationalist media has also made it look like everyone who disagees with these things are 4x4-driving hooligan nutbars. And wait, drag story time is in schools??? 5. Ok. For me, I have no issues with consenting adults doing anything. I enjoy all sorts of profane content LOL. For kids things are different, e.g. age appropriateness, and I do respect other people's differing limits on that...to a degree LOL. 6. Fair game. That's politics. 7. I've never heard of this story, so can't comment.

So then why are these men wanting to read for the kids in drag? What's the point? Do you believe in parents rights? We could just as well say that you're trying to manipulate people into thinking there's nothing to be outraged about. Based on what people wear at Pride parades, I think it's also not age- appropriate to bring kids there. You said when you went there were naked gay men dancing. Parents have a right to expose their kids to certain things and I have a right to have an opinion on it.

Children need to be more inclusive to drag queens. It's a major problem in our society. Why don't they accept the kink? Shape up, children.

It's very much unknown how democracy in Iran would have went if the 1953 coup never happened. Mosaddegh was only in power for 2 years, it was a very corrupt country with rigged elections especially before 1951, and the Shah/monarchy still had power in that government. The ME isn't exactly a beacon for stable democracies. Iran probably wouldn't have gone so hardcore religious like after the 1979 revolution, and the coup was unethical and probably illegal, but the idea that Iran would have been a thriving democracy without the coup is speculative and unknown. Iranians likely would have been better off without the coup though.

There's lots of things women can do in the military besides fighting on the front lines.

People with low intelligence believe whatever confirms their biases regardless of evidence. People with high intelligence believe the evidence regardless of their biases.

The guy is very likely full of it:

If the draft is imposed in the future. If you post a bunch of threads daily on a similar topic (Trump) it's not unreasonable to listen to the opinions of others.

Yes.

Based on what?

That's clearly a "no".

Yes society should revolve around your narcissism. I answered your question. You're in no position to make demands of me. Ironic that you actually dodged my question above, and constantly dodge questions and arguments with jokes and insults.

And who determines what is good or bad? Since there'd be school policies against students and teachers being racist, not to mention laws, as well as our media (especially those geared towards younger people) now constantly giving anti-racism messaging, i'm sure they can figure it out.

1. Some schools put up Pride flags during the month and give outright support like teachers/admin speeches in celebrating "Pride month". This is different than teaching the existence of Pride month as a fact within a classroom. Inclusion doesn't mean a school has to celebrate everyone's celebration. Schools have an obligation to be tolerant, and following anti-discrimination laws we now have. They don't have an obligation to celebrate everyone's beliefs, choices, feelings etc in order to make everyone feel validated. Students should be allowed to be gay or dress like the opposite sex. 4. I don't know what's the opposite of "Pride", or the conservative version of Pride. I've done my best. Feel free to think of better examples. Pride is the celebration of LGBT people and is quite obviously giving a thumbs-up to those lifestyles that are essential to all LGBT people. ie. You can be tolerant of trans people without actively celebrating their lifestyle choices. There's obviously political implications here, and opinions on issues. 5. As for Halloween, yes its a good example. I don't know the answer to your question, it's a tough one. As for "funding", i'm not talking about that. I'm talking about the very act of "celebrating". 6. Disagree. We're talking about it right now, therefore there's some controversy around it. If Alberta public schools started preaching anti-trans stuff it would also be controversial, though most in AB would probably agree with it. 7. I've already said how: putting up Pride flags at city buildings, or at public schools.

So you would be ok with conservative provincial governments like in Alberta teaching in public schools that abortion is wrong? Or that youth medical gender transitions are unethical? If some parents like yourself don't like it they can send their kids to separate schools as you say, right? Pride and LGBT issues can be in the curriculum, since they're realities that exist in our world. Teaching being for or against Pride or LGBT issues is inappropriate. Public schools are in the business of teaching children facts/knowledge and how to think critically, not telling them what opinions/beliefs to have.

1. Right, schools can teach about pre-marital sex, masturbation, abortion etc since these are facts that exist, just like they can teach about LGBT issues or the existence of Pride celebrations. However, it's totally inappropriate for public schools to take positions of support or non-support over these issues. Should conservative provincial governments be able to push curriculum that celebrates pro-life or "sex before marriage is bad" positions, even raising a pro-life flag or celebrating "pro-life month"? This shouldn't be a thing, and you'd probably have an issue with it as a parent as would others. 2. Gov funding is different than celebrating the event itself, like putting up Pride flags on city buildings, city hall etc. Would you be ok with pro-life flags at Queen's Park, or a flag representing being against youth medical gender transitions, or teaching those values in public schools? 3. I never said anything about funding. I'm talking about the state itself taking part in/celebrating such events.

Well you have people of all religious backgrounds and views who send their children to public schools, and they have a right to not have schools push certain views like this on their children per Pride. It's essentially state propaganda. I think politicians and parties can back Pride, but the government themselves backing it presents similar problems. Like Pride flags on city flagpolls. Note that I don't personally have any issues with Pride or LGBT people/lifestyles in general.

No, I mean celebrating Pride. Schools can teach about LGBT. I'm not anti-LGBT, chill.

Every individual is free to celebrate Pride. Governments and public schools probably shouldn't be pushing it. If students want to celebrate it they have the right.

That teacher is in trouble. And if you're in a public school they shouldn't be celebrating beliefs, lifestyles, religions etc. You can teach facts about it, that's it.

All of it

Doing a quick google search, the parts I underlined above are true. The parts in bold are false claims on your part, which you probably just took from twitter. I have no idea if it's an astroturf group or not. It's a professional association of socially conservative pediatricians. It has 700 active members, which isn't a ton. The American Academy of Pediatrics has 67k members. It's current President is a pediatric endocrinologist, which is a medical doctor specializing in endocrine glands, which are the glands that produce our hormones.

Maher is sort of the George Carlin of today, but not as charming.

Liberals?
