I forgot to bite my tongue again 😬

Florida schools recently removed most information on sex in their sex education curriculum. My initial shock was over the removal of the teaching of sexual consent from the program. Apparently, it’s okay to rape Floridian children. Anyway, I shared the video and got a comment making fun of LGBTQ+, as teaching about that was removed as well. I forgot to bite my tongue and let loose in my response. I’ve posted it below. I’ve covered the stats before, so I’m not posting sources.

Did you know that more cis (straight) boys get gender-affirming surgery than those who identify as transgender? Breast reductions are considered gender-affirming. I remember going to school with a guy who had to wear a bra because his breasts were so big that they caused him problems in gym class. The other kids made fun of him for it. He was straight, or what is now termed cis. Besides, less than 3% of Americans identify as transgender and less than 7% identify as LGBTQ+. Right-wingers (and some so-called Communists/Left-wingers) blow the LGBTQ+ issue out of proportion. I identify as queer. I just don’t flaunt it, but I will stand up for my fellow LGBTQ+. Criticize the U.S. government for how it weaponizes LGBTQ+ rights, human rights, or women’s rights, as an excuse for overthrowing other governments, instead. Capitalism and American Imperialism are the real problems.

How JD Vance went from thinking he was gay and changing his name twice to being an anti-LGBTQ+ extremist

Ohio Republican U.S. Sen. JD Vance’s journey from a troubled childhood in Appalachia to the halls of the U.S. Senate to being former President Donald Trump’s running mate has been the subject of much ink, yet his contradictory stance on LGBTQ+ rights is coming under scrutiny. Vance’s memoir, Hillbilly Elegy, contains a revealing anecdote about his childhood belief that he was gay. Influenced by a preacher’s condemnation of homosexuality, young Vance feared he was destined for hell simply because he disliked girls and cherished his friendship with another boy.

    Dear Moms, Think of Your Own Children!

    The following is an unhinged rant with a hint of sarcasm (forgive me as I’m not a talented writer):

    Just listened to the stupidest press conference with Moms Against Liberty (Moms For Liberty, rebranded as Moms Against TikTok), Libs of TikTok, Heritage Foundation, and select members of Congress. Feigning concern about liberty, and children’s rights, they’re calling for a ban on TikTok!

    Rep. Troy Nehls called for the creation of an app, called “AmeriTok”, that advocates for gun ownership, limited government, responsible cigar smoking, freedom, individual rights, and liberty (the irony of advocating for freedom and liberty while calling for censorship)! He seems quite jealous that China puts time limits on children being on social media! Why not advocate for a similar law, considering kids could spend just as much time on Facebook or Instagram (or maybe leave parenting to the parents)?!

    The astroturfed Moms Against Liberty campaign has been calling for book bans the last few years! Tell me how you can claim to advocate for freedom and liberty, when you are calling for censorship?! Besides, what will Libs of TikTok do if TikTok is officially banned, besides inciting others to violence?! Banning TikTok sets a dangerous precedent! I doubt that these people are true to their beliefs on children’s rights, though, or else they’d be advocating for a ban on Facebook and Instagram, as well! Of course, this has nothing to do with TikTok, except that Facebook can’t compete!

    These radical conservatives are just as bad as those on the ‘radical left’ that they rail against! Their hypocrisy about social media privacy is astounding (trying to figure out how cigar smoking is safer for kids than TikTok)!
