These whackjobs are sick in the head.

Hopefully the backlash will be swift and these ghouls voted off these school boards across the country.

Speaking of "whack jobs" have you ever taken a look at "Libs of Tik Tok" on Twitter ?
Speaking here of republicans cancelling history, cancelling education and cancelling Anne Frank.

I know....just pointing out that the extreme reactions by those whack jobs on the right is simply a response to the whack jobs on the left

Do you have kids in high school over here?  It's complete and utter madness what's going on.

(Edit...And of course, now that I've spent all of 5 minutes checking out if this is actually true......all is not what it seems)

"Aside from the books mentioned in above video, the list of 41 previously challenged items included a graphic novel edition of Frank's diary that was first published in 2018, titled, "Anne Frank's Diary: The Graphic Adaptation." The Bible also made the list. According to the Keller ISD website, each of the two books had apparently been challenged by a lone parent. The graphic novel version of Frank's work purportedly contains "references to female genitalia, same-sex attraction, and other sexual matters," according to the reporting from The Times of Israel.

At the same time, the more than 50 copies of the standard edition of Frank's "The Diary of a Young Girl" that were available in the school district's libraries were never challenged or removed from shelves, according to a statement from the superintendent, Rick Westfall. This was one fact that wasn't mentioned in many of the popular Facebook posts about this rumor."

Who said that?

Democrat madness in the schools has led to Republican madness on the School Boards. One is as bad as the other

So when you read past the headline it was one parent who complained and they didn't even show up at the meeting to discuss it. People on the left losing the run of themselves jumping on this one.

Not only that but (a) 50 copies of the regular edition of the Diary of Anne Frank we're still available in the library (b) the Bible was also "banned"

Why delete it, it's fact.
Just because they /tex school district) profess to have changed their mind on the banning of Anne Frank after protests, does not alter history.

Believe whatever you want

The Republicans taking over these school committees is a direct response to the madness going n in a lot of school districts

Did you have a chance to check out libs of TikTok yet?

Conservatives: People need to take personal responsibility for their own actions and stop blaming others for all their problems.
Also conservatives: Yes I'm a hateful bigot who would have been right at home as a white person in Apartheid South Africa or the slave-owning south, but them awful Democrats made me do it!

Both sides have wackos

One group of wackos provokes the others group of wackos into reacting/over reacting

It's really not that hard to understand
