Newest "anti-woke" tantrum: Right-wingers don't think kids of different races can be friends
Newest "anti-woke" tantrum: Right-wingers don't think kids of different races can be friends
A bizarre racist outburst at a Texas school board isn't an isolated event — it's part of a national pattern
Do we need to send in the national guard to integrate our playgrounds now? How do people see the concept of friendship as a threat to their way of life? That's your fellow American and a human being, not your enemy.
... you, uh, new here? They never thought interracial friendships should be tolerated. And yes. They've thrown tantrums about it. (see.... the whole civil rights movement era..)
Never in history have conservatives been the good guys. Why would they start now?
There is a bit of truth in that title
Right-wingers don't think
So what you’re saying is right wingers are hateful racists? Huh
This is not a winning strategy.
It is for Republican primaries, and 222 House general elections.
Wow. That is an insane level of racism if true.
But they will still quote MLK Jr.
While claiming the Democrats are the party of slavery while holding the Confederate flag and holding propaganda associated with being party of slavery.
They had a dream, a dream where all children are created sperate, but equal.
My kids best friend in kindergarten was a black kid. Unfortunately they didnt end up on the same school.
Ive seen no black kids around my sons age at his current school
(We live in Denmark. Black population is only 2% or something)
So who are my mixed race kids supposed to be friends with?
Themselves?
They would hate me.
Pre Antebellum Republicans strike again
From the person complaining:
When asked for an example of what was concerning parents, Dungan replied: “A poster that shows ‘All Belong Here’ with racially colored hands. This was an example that was first brought to me early this year.”
She continued: “I think the intention of the poster was good and the parent thought that the intention of the poster was good. However, the unintended consequences of that poster made the first grader feel like ‘why wouldn’t I be accepted here?’ It had a reverse effect on the first grader because it was in the classroom.”
Not a good argument at all- but she clearly didn't say kids of different races couldn't be friends.
well that's just not smart.
Hey uh, you guys don't actually trust an article from Salon do you?
From what I remember, those are the lefties that say if you're black you're forever oppressed and you're incapable of following your dreams cause of your race and that's why you should be babysitted and put above others, cause you're supposedly incapable cause you were born a different race.
This article really sucks lol. Can we not generalize people based on a woman who said she doesn't like progressive posters?
The whole scope of behavior by the American right tells us that the majority of them are racists, not "just one lady who doesn't like progressive posters." Also, it's pretty clear you didn't read the article, just the headline.
The majority of people who identify with "the right" are racist? I hope you have a source because it's not in the article.
Just getting tired of blanket statements from militant teens, telling all other impressionable teens how to think.
Stupidity like racial intolerance needs to be combated with systematic changes like education. Not by circlejerking with like minded people who don't offer any criticism to the parties they think they hate so much.
To quote another comment
"The lady is part of a large, well funded, national movement of white christian nationalist women orchestrating school board take overs. "
Sure, just as long as we don't institute policies that make some single woman's opinion about a decoration in a classroom into a thing that has to be examined in detail by teachers and administrators.
But whoops, that's what Florida has already done...created a bloated, forced Karen-based bureaucracy in education.
Lol funny how the media needs to pretend that some random nobody represents the entire right.
You'll probably get down voted, but you're right and it's both sides. It's news marketing and it should be illegal. They just find controversial Twitter posts and act like it's a rule of law.
Kinda like Elon musk and Zuckerbergs fight... That shits just modern gorilla marketing and people are falling for it. Marketing/popculture sucks.
Both of you didn't ready the article. The lady is part of a large, well funded, national movement of white christian nationalist women orchestrating school board take overs.
Did we need another post about this? there's already one that was posted with the same link
