School board cancels an anti-bullying talk with gay presenter, because he is gay. I'm sure this taught the kids an important lesson about bullying. www.nytimes.com/2024/04/17/u...
Maulik Pancholy was scheduled to give a talk on anti-bullying at a Pennsylvania school next month. School board members scrapped it, citing concerns about his activism and “lifestyle.”
“Again, it’s not discriminating against his lifestyle, that’s his choice, but it’s him speaking about it,” Ms. Potteiger said. “He did say that that’s not the topic, but that’s what his books are about.” Unreal.
How sad this is…
It can be institutional for a start.
Not to mention the drag!
The "lifestyle" of cis-het bigots who think they're normies.
We've come to the point in the sad history of this nation where just living your life and "being proud" of your "lifestyle," and trying to insure that people like you are not considered subhuman scum, is considered the kind of "activism" that children cannot be exposed to.
Do they bullied the person coming to speak to kids about being bullied? 🤔😡
I think i sprained my eyeballs rolling them
Nero had them figured from the start.
I think it's past the time we return the bullying Niceness, being the "bigger person" and "the moral high ground" aren't taking us anywhere and since they're so quick to accuse us of it, well, might as well do it to protect ourselves
