“Elementary-aged children are now asking questions about sex, gender identity and pronouns and gender presentation,” said Aaron Driver, whose child attends the school, in comments shared by the Libs of TikTok account. “That creates an educational issue, and therefore a parental rights issue”
Aaron driver is a shitty parent
Shitty person, actually.
Both in fact
"parental rights" is usually just code for instilling bigotry or other abuse
There is no such thing as parental rights.
There are only parental responsibilities.
Those who think they have rights over other human beings(including children) are akin to slave owners.
They view children as property. So teaching their "property" things like "rights" and "tolerance" is just like... installing Linux on their PCs. It makes it completely unusable to them, especially because they don't like learning.
100% agree.
Conservatives are such a heady mix of stupid and dishonest.
And don't forget the secret ingredient: malice.
Considering how these folks tend to end up: has anyone checked Aaron's PC for any "hidden" folders full of pictures?
What a confusing headline. I don't think most reasonable people would know or assume that 'Libs of Tiktok' is a conservative hate group.
Less of a group and more just a cunt named Chaya Raichik.
Yeah I don't understand why the media doesn't name her.
Oh wait maybe I do...
Yep. It's rich given that the article says she "strongly objected" when WaPo publicly identified her as the founder behind the Libs of TikTok account in 2022. Just like all bullies, she can't bear even a fraction of what she dishes out on the regular.
It’s one of those iykyk things. I detest TikTok and refuse to use it (and short form brainrot video bullshit in general), but I’ve been aware of it as a hard-right channel/user/whatever for a while now.
When's the last time you ever heard a liberal refer to themselves as a "lib"?
I don't know any leftists that refer to themselves as liberal at all, so anyone who does accept the label I wouldn't know what they call themselves.
I'm a liberal and that's what I call myself.
Gross
There’s nothing gross about being a liberal.
Strong disagree.
Cool.
Don’t forget to vote in the primaries and mid terms this year I know I will be.
Sorry your candidates keep getting their asses kicked. Don't worry you still have John Fetterman though I guess. So enjoy that...
Remind me was John Fetterman the one that leftists were excited about then he turned or was he the one with nazi tattoos and a history of sexual assault?
Apart from enabling facsism, there is nothing gross about it.
Tell SaltySalamander!
Precisely the point. It's a literal false flag.
That bitch is a terrorist
Can confirm. I know someone who lost their career over this bitch.
I guess stochastic terrorism just isn't a crime? She's been doing this targeted harassment for years. Our country is failing partly because the law just isn't enforced on anyone like this. The fuck is going on?
I guess stochastic terrorism just isn’t a crime?
It's only terrorism when it comes from the terrorist region of Afghanistan.
When a Zionist does it, it's Sparkling Free Speech.
Sparkling ~~Free Speech~~ Genocide
Because the law recognises a difference between direct and indirect causes.
If it recognised indirect causes then Lemmy would fucking implode due to the amount of people wishing death to various individuals.
Oh my god, she is still around? I haven't heard about her in a while. Looks like they are trying to drum up more trans hate again. She is just a propaganda pusher.
Elections coming up huh?
Indeed, the MAGA fucknuts are making their push.
She's so stupid. Watch that interview by Taylor Lorenz if you don't believe she's dumb as bricks
She's a far right propagandist against queer and liberal people despite being an American Jewish woman. I don't know how much dumber I can be convinced she is unless she regularly forgets how to breathe
I'm so glad TikTok isn't owned by those nefarious censorship loving foreigners anymore.
That shit was hilarious. Popular platform owned by China who didn't censor anything but presumably anti-China topics, but the US couldn't censor or suppress any of what they wanted, because they didn't control it, and they were big mad about it. It was fun while it lasted.
How the fuck hasn't this bitch not been shot and/or lynched yet. Like unironically if some murderer wanted to get a free kill shed be it since nobody would give a damn.
I need to stop listening to missing enigma and lore lodge while I play games it's causing me to think about murder more than usual.
About time someone stands up to elementary teachers. You can't bully me anymore Ms Sikes!
