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.

    I’m not saying no one rally believes this shit. I’m saying believers are not the real problem. How would you fight believers? Ban religion? The problem are the corrupt institutions and weak laws. The solution is to pass laws that actually protect people. Roe v. Wade wasn’t abolished because people started believing harder. Support for abortion is actually fairly stable and grew in recent decade. What changed is that Republicans took over the Supreme Court and cooked a state level lawsuit that let them abolish it. All those cases are like that. Getting mad at “true believers” will lead you to nowhere. You should be mad at Democrats for failing to pass laws on federal level when they had the chance.
