Well, this is my flag
 

But I understand the meaning of that flag that flag represents freedom. Freedom to do what you want including wave other flags.

You're absolutely right.

 

It also allows myself and others the freedom to call attention to the absolute undeniable reality that the pride flag, particularly the newest version and the TQ+ part, has come to also represent certain groups and individuals who wish to sexualize children.

True but not to push those beliefs on others that don't believe the same . My wife has a day care & some of the curriculum plus the rules the state has & try to push they try to give the youngest of children is to change the way of thinking basically indoctrinating them as young as 2 to change the mind set that's just wrong .

 

Didn't Hitler & some others do that ?? I think there have been many that tried that in history to create a new race of people.

 

 If the same kind of push was put behind the American flag & the beliefs upon its inception the country & it's people would be in a lot better place .

Cant be nearly as wrong as pushing drag shows onto kids but you'll defend that until you die.

In August 2020, Jerry Falwell Jr, one of Donald Trump’s staunchest supporters, resigned as president of Liberty University – a private, evangelical Christian institution in Lynchburg, Virginia. The university, founded by Falwell’s father – a prominent televangelist – is famed for its strict “moral code”, which includes the prohibition of alcohol, premarital sex and cohabitation. That moral code, as the university sees it, was not adhered to by its president, whose resignation came after he found himself embroiled in a sex scandal involving a pool boy from Miami, Florida.

Probably.  But at any point. Rape bad. Pedophilia bad   overdosing and covering it up is bad. 

 

You provided the strawman. Provide the facts that some rapes/pedophilia is better than others?

Republicans, right-wing judges and MAGA activists have set out to trample on free speech and individual rights in the name of battling “wokeism.” If they don’t like what teachers say about history, gag them. If they don’t like certain books, ban them. If they don’t like a corporation defending LGBTQ rights, retaliate against it. Their crusade has become an expression of not only white Christian nationalism but of contempt for the Constitution and the First Amendment.

But last week, U.S. District Judge Thomas L. Parker, appointed by President Donald Trump, stood up to the thought police and the MAGA bullies in striking down the so-called drag queen ban (the Adult Entertainment Act) in Tennessee.

Parker began with an ode to the First Amendment: “Freedom of speech is not just about speech. It is also about the right to debate with fellow citizens on self-government, to discover the truth in the marketplace of ideas, to express one’s identity, and to realize self-fulfillment in a free society.” He continued, “That freedom is of first importance to many Americans such that the United States Supreme Court has relaxed procedural requirements for citizens to vindicate their right to freedom of speech, while making it harder for the government to regulate it.” And the Tennessee statute impermissibly tried to regulate free speech, he found.

And Parker also found the law “targets the viewpoint of gender identity — particularly those who wish to impersonate a gender that is different from the one with which they are born.” This is prohibited “content-based, viewpoint-based regulation on speech.” Republicans insist there is no such thing as gender identity other than gender determined at birth. That’s not a fact, as the MAGA censors insist; that’s a viewpoint. And it is impermissible to ban other viewpoints. That, Parker underscores, is what a free society is all about.

So the big bad bullies are once again walking all over the innocent victims of the social justice religion?  Boo, hoo.  More like fighting fire with fire.  That appears to frustrate you.

 

In contrast woke ideology preaches tolerance, inclusion, and diversity where "all are welcome".  I can assure everyone that if you entered their "safe space" and expressed views or opinions contrary to the group's belief system you would not be welcome.  You'd be attacked verbally and physically, doxed, and mercilessly attacked on social media being called every name in the playbook along with being associated with all kinds of sordid and nefarious individuals until you apologized and paid your respects while showing your obedience to their faith.  Now rational and reasonable people are pushing back and saying no more and that scares you.

Actually, the first amendment is being abused. But no big deal to you, everything is permissible for The Party

The first amendment shouldn't  be used to allow teachers to discuss any dang thing they want, right? They are our employees. We hire them to teach our children. We determine what they teach our children. A lot of this is starting in the classroom and that is not the proper place for it.

Creeping fascism?  You guys should know it when you see it.  Take a count of how many companies are instituting liberal government and leftist NGO sponsored DEI initiatives and compare that to how many companies are instituting some far right ideological training.  Hint, one count is zero.  Which one is that? The melding of the state and corporations.  Now tell me again about fascism.  But keep believing your the victim.

You guys are the ones passing laws that violate the First Amendment. That's fascist
