You mean like Russia reneged on the Budapest Memorandum promises? Who promised IN WRITING "to keep the former Soviet Republics out of NATO." BTW, at the time I thought it was a mistake to provoke Russia that way. But I have come around to the view that it made sense to prevent the reassembling of the USSR BY FORCE. Of course there is a STRONG REASON why those countries CHOSE to join NATO. Quote

The reason was money and free market capitalism. I get it. I like it better here than Russia, but I don’t like the direction of Western countries culturally now. I think we’re unmoored. Russia in its messaging sounds more down to Earth and more sane. I know it’s rhetoric, but we’re busy taking our kids to drag story time and attention ant-racism training. It’s just weird. Quote

You FEELING 'it's weird" is NOT a legitimate reason to deny people THEIR RIGHTS. IF parents want to take their kids to "drag story time," it's really NONE of your business. Just ignore it; it won't destroy anything. What exactly is wrong with "anti-racism training"? People SHOULD LEARN about the FALLACIES of racism. 1 Quote
impartialobserver Posted June 16, 2023 Report Posted June 16, 2023 here is why politicos (those who care passionately about politics on a day to day basis) can't be taken seriously. 10 hours ago, Zeitgeist said: but we’re busy taking our kids to drag story time and attention ant-racism training This is pure hyperbole and exaggeration. What percentage of the US population takes their kids to a drag story time? Well, there is no central database for this so all we have is estimation. However, we all know that this is fairly uncommon if you look at the entire US population. I live in a fairly liberal area and they happen 3 or 4 times per year and one has to be connected to a certain nonprofit to even know about them. 1 Quote

The reality is that your judgement about what is happening has NO LEGITIMACY for ANYONE ELSE. AKA it's just YOUR SPECULATION. Drag story time is not "grooming" anything which harms children.

Only TOLERANCE (which you apparently lack completely). Drag story time is all about normalizing the idea of men acting like women. The jokes are bawdy and age inappropriate. It’s so clearly a twisted form of education. The icing on the cake is when parents bring their young kids to watch guys in Pride parades bend over and flaunt their genitalia, as though this is also healthy. Sick. You’ll never see it because you’re fully indoctrinated. This is the direction of our culture now, and it’s destructive, obviously. Edited June 17, 2023 by Zeitgeist Quote
