The judge cited the Supreme Court’s recent decision establishing parents’ right to opt kids out of LGBTQ+ inclusive lessons.

A Boston judge has ruled in favor of a Massachusetts dad who sued his local school district to ensure his five-year-old son is never exposed to books featuring LGBTQ+ characters.

As the Boston Herald reported, the father, identified in court documents as Alan L., is described as a “devout Christian” who objects to the inclusion of certain children’s books featuring LGBTQ+ characters in the kindergarten curriculum of Joseph Estabrook Elementary School, where his son, identified as J.L., is enrolled.

        The other choice is to wait. If the system exists against the laws of world and has not enough energy to sustain itself - it will collapse/dissappear. Thus, there is no need to kill such people until they are a direct threat to you. They will either adapt to a new world or dissappear by themselves.

              Wow. You’re an absolute fucking psycho if you genuinely think that.

              Edit: holy shit, your comment history is wild. And further cements my opinion that you’re an absolute fucking psycho.

              It’s not a fucking movement. This isn’t a belief or thought process or anything. It’s who people are. You’re too wrapped up in propaganda and ignorance to see it.

                  lmao. tell me you’re ignorant without telling me you’re ignorant. Being gay or not has NOTHING to do with morals. Are animals in the wild that are gay immoral? or does that only apply to humans? homosexuality in wild animals is a well documented fact. It’s VERY common. But that doesn’t count, right?

                  The same user has made similar comments in other threads, either they’re actually a complete braindead conservaturd or a troll. Either way, not worth anybody’s time.

              I’m gay and I wasn’t groomed into it. In fact, my early childhood is marked by a lot of confusion trying to grapple with parts of my identity while adults like you said horrendous things about gay people around me. I tried everything I could to not be gay, to please my very religious parents, and that caused more harm than any of the beatings my “Christian” father gave me over the years. I’m sure you’re too interested in hanging onto your ignorant and hateful views to try to expand your understanding of anything though.

                  I’m telling you that didn’t happen. I didn’t know a single gay person growing up. That’s part of why I was so confused when puberty came around and things were different for me. Also, I had a bunch of adults around me making it clear that being gay was the worst thing you could be. Those are the adults that damaged me the most. My family is like yours. They thought there were no gay people, they’re all homophobic. That didn’t stop me from existing, it just made it harder for me as a child. You’ve never met or known an actual gay person, have you?

          Read MLK’s letters from a Birmingham jail. Pay close attention to the bit about the white moderate, you may find it personally relevant.

        Education. And just because they’re trying to pervert the education system doesn’t mean there aren’t other routes to education, but protecting and rebuilding public education needs to be a top priority.

          How are you like this? Do you not live in the same reality that I do?

      If you wish death to someone, expect the same to be wished to you. Some people don’t like other people and that is OK. There is no reason to show violence towards them until they are a threat to you.

        I’ll clarify: Many of these people wish to “eradicate transgenderism”. They want to eliminate a group of people. How does one go about that exactly? Make us flee? Throw trans women in men’s prisons? Camps?

        Way back when, I tried to show that we are humans, like them. No more. If they’d leave us alone, I would have no problem with them. They are free to think and believe what they want. But they won’t stop. They’ll never stop. And they have all of the power. If they throw the full force of the state at us, we would have zero chance of being able to fight back. I don’t think any of my neighbors would get in the way of a pig with a gun for me.

        So yeah, I wish death upon them now. Fuck ‘em. They want to erase us from society? Then I wish the same for them.

          Well, I don’t support the violence from both sides here, so I wish you only good luck then. Especially, because of rising chances of a revolution and/or a civil war in the USA.
