Everything you need to know about the ‘one million march for children’ to stop the ‘indoctrination of children in public schools’
Who is behind them? Um… Conservatives. All of them.
Conservatism is hate. Nearly every act of domestic terrorism in North American history has been committed by conservatives. Nearly every act of racism, bigotry, misogyny, transphobia, homophobia, xenophobia and anti-semitism ever committed in our planet’s history has been committed by conservatives.
Teach your children why it is inappropriate to make friends with, keep relationships with or do business with conservatives. Marginalize hate by marginalizing the hate group.
Wilhoit’s law -
Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
Left leaving people believe that every human is worth the same - right leaning people draw lines and exclude people from that equal group.
The more often they draw the line against a part of the population most people aren’t part of the more likely is it that they manage to convince one of those that it’s actually worth it for them to agree with those divisions
Left leaving people believe that every human is worth the same
I think we all wish that were the case.
Marginalize hate by becoming hate.
Teaching children to hate, especially dogmatic hate, is disgusting even when one’s stance is morally correct. If a stance is just, then by teaching children ethics and critical thinking they will come to the correct conclusion on their own. When one uses the exact same playbook as the worst parts of the group they hate, they become the worst part of the group they represent.
Since some people don’t seem to realize what a bigot actually is:
bigot - bĭg′ət - noun - One who is strongly partial to one’s own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.
Edit: Phrasing, mostly replacing the word “you” with generic pronouns.
You are mistaken. I am not espousing “intolerance of those who differ”. I am espousing intolerance of a group of deadly dangerous bigots who demonize anyone who is not in their group. Do not equivocate the haters and their victims who reject them. That is a tactic of the conservatives.
When you name yourself @Burn_The_Right, you make it clear whether you are targeting a specific group or everyone in a certain political direction.
When you make statements like:
Biden is a neo-liberal. Neo-liberals are conservatives. They are better dressed and more intelligent, but they are conservatives by all international measures.
Or dismiss 40-year democrats as conservatives:
Who are you calling “we”? A quick check of your comment history shows you are a conservative.
You make it clear whether you mean a single group or everyone who doesn’t share your brand of liberalism.
Combined with:
Conservatism is the biggest threat to humanity on planet earth. All means to extinguish an infestation are justified.
or this gem: Edit: fixed broken link.
Not everyone is willing to do what’s necessary to cure the disease. I am willing. If that makes me a monster, then I am the monster they themselves created.
Conservatism is a plague of oppression and death.
You can pretend that you are not an intolerant bigot advocating for mass-murder, but your own words betray you.
Reading through the constant fountain of hate that you spew in your comments makes it clear just how big of a problem Lemmy has right now. The vast majority of you comments are pushing for at least two-thirds of society to be “extinguished”.
I have seen whole instances defederated for having a user say less violent and bigoted things than your comments do.
Is this the centrist part, where some violence is ok?
Are you conservative or just think being nice will fix the world…?
Nice false dichotomy.
I am someone that believes that for a democracy or republic to function that sometimes we have to sit down with people that we rather punch than talk to and find the few things we both agree on.
It is bad enough to marginalize small groups, but any political view that is advocating marginalizing half of society is the real enemy and should be fought against by all free people.
Idgaf what you think. You’re of the opinion that people who can’t even agree that certain members of our society are human and deserve basic rights should be sat down with and talked to?
I have no time for their nonsense and no time for yours.
Look up the tolerance paradox and think hard about that.
I have no time for their nonsense and no time for yours.
One person’s nonsense is another person’s importance.
None of these people on either side are going to just magically disappear because the other side doesn’t like them.
If you want them to respect you enough to hear what you’re saying (I’m assuming when you comment you actually want people to read it and consider what you’re saying) you should do the same in reverse, even if you disagree with what they’re saying.
Ignorance and Hate only leads to War and Death.
to and find the few things we both agree on.
And when their stance is ‘trans people shouldn’t have rights’ what’s the middle ground there exactly?

Realize you’re getting a lot more downvotes than upvotes, but I just wanted to let you know you’re not alone, in this way of thinking.

They’ve told you one thing: they’re hiding behind children.
“For the children” “to restore parental rights” ahh, right so you mean AGAINST the children. Easy mistake to make.
It’s time people started learning about the groups that create such events. This is all funded by the Tanton network, and they ship in professional protestors to participate, same as in antichoice marches, where they fly them in from the US.

Haha, I thought it was just the lefties being paid by Soros to protest
Million Man March? More like “Double Digit Dumbasses”
The way the poster reads it looks like this is the 1 millionth march of 4 children. Which is kind of hilarious.
It’s all distraction. Keep attention to the things out of the corner of your eye.
Have to keep the people divided otherwise they will be too powerful
I thought Canada had hate speech laws?
Parliament just gave a standing ovation to a literal nazi. I don’t think the government gives a shit about hate speech.
for children the children
There it is boys.
Pretty sure most of the people will be related to each other.
Same folks that want to give up our sovereignty to The States under Drumph.
How the f do these people get off saying straight people are oppressed. Besides being the vast majority, without straight people our species would die… like, who is that dumb to believe this horseshit?
So instead of looking into a more common ground in these issues, we see libral in social media labelling any conservative as “hater” “idiots” and then wonder why conservative get elected.
I have never seen a normal conversation that address any of the conserns that parents and people who have conservative values would have.
Instead, if they are religious we see comments saying they will do anything for their imaginary friend, and if they are conservative, they don’t know how to raise their kids, and the best is when talking about blocker thereby, comment will dismiss everything as being non harmful which doesn’t make sense.
I am also amazed that people with concern or question cannot say much because of the hate speech laws that are vaguely defined. So you end up with people “force” to be quite and only able to have conversations with like minded or extremist people. This also force academics/lawyers/medically trained individual to not say anything.
I always wonder if this is a work of trolls who aimd at dividing the country similar to what happens in the US and UK.
Edit: cool to see some of the replies actually prove a point.
Yeah, it’s conservatives who are the real victims, good thing they have clowns like you to focus on the important issues and advocate for them!
I have never seen a normal conversation that address any of the conserns that parents and people who have conservative values would have.
Because their concerns are delusional.
You can’t have a “normal conversation” about kitty litter boxes being placed in schools for students who are furries. It never happened, but someone told them it did and now they’re angry about it. Try to tell them it’s not happening and they fell for a hoax and then they accuse you of being blind to the truth and hurting children.
Constructive discourse is impossible. All you can hope to do is limit their influence by appealing to people who have not already fallen for their fear mongering. Engaging directly is a trap.
Never argue with a pig, you’ll both end up dirty but they enjoy it.
And never play chess with a pigeon. They’ll shit all over the board and then strut around like they won.
common ground
Where is the common ground between ‘trans people are people’ and ‘trans people are abominations that should be relegated to the backwash of society until we find a socially acceptable reason to kill them.’?
Whichever side of the fence we’re on I think one thing we can agree are on is that you need to work on your spelling
I have never seen a normal conversation that address any of the conserns that parents and people who have conservative values would have.
When conservatives learn to present their arguments in a non-hyperbolic fashion that doesn’t ignore science and reality, and to have an adult conversation about the merits of those arguments, and to be honest about what is motivating those arguments, then this complaint will hold some water.
if they are religious we see comments saying they will do anything for their imaginary friend
I mean, yeah, usually the religious people demonstrating have things saying “you will burn in hell” or similar. Thats not an argument at all, other than they doing it for their imaginary friend.
Dearest doorknob, where did you receive your education? Serious question.
Indeed, discussion between the left and right no longer seems possible. Both sides focus on the extremes. The far-right arguments and the far-left arguments instead of the centrist povs.
I think that any controversial point that people have different takes works like this… Vast majority of people, free of influence from their others, are centrist. A bell-curve of dividing opinions. Most people would either not care, or not find a big issue about it. Few will take it to the extremes. But over time in political discourse, we move from a bell curve of opinions to two very divisive sides.
Since the main topic is apparently too hot of a take, I’ll take pineapple on a pizza for example (Perhaps I’m getting into even hotter waters). Free of external influence (i.e. memes), I think most people will eat it without much thought. Some might like it, some might not, and I doubt it’s all that controversial–likely less than anchovies. If you don’t like it, you just don’t have to eat it.
But if one extreme said we must ban pineapples from all pizzas, and the other end of the extreme said we must put pineapple on all pizzas, we have a very different scenario. I myself enjoy Hawaiian pizza and find pineapples to be a fine topping. But I certainly don’t want to eat only pineapple pizzas all the time. So, I’d look at both extremes and side with no pineapples ever. That seems better of the two options. I can no longer be a centrist because the idea of having only pineapple pizza seems horrible. But I don’t really eat whole pizzas by myself, I eat it with others. And if others are such great lovers of pineapple pizza, I’d be influenced to side with the other extreme of always having pineapple due to peers.
I want to highlight that both of these extremes are authoritarian. One forces you to eat pineapple. The other forces you to not eat pineapple. Neither are true libertarian choices. They are forced viewpoints one forces on the other. That’s what forces people to have such strong negative emotion towards it. No one wants to be forced into things. This is important and I’ll come back to this later.
Just look at every other reply to the comment I’m replying to. They highlight how the extreme right is horrible. Yeah. They are. It seems there’s no arguing with them. They seem to have extreme authoritarian views. How do you deal with them as a left leaning person? You can’t. The ones that can deal with them, are not you, but the centrists or the non-extreme rights. You can only bring them to your side by shunning your own extreme left. Vice versa the other way around too for rights bringing in the left. You need to recognize extremism and learn to shun them. But we don’t do that. We get into team mentality and think your side is right and the other is wrong. The more people think like that, the more divisive people get because they associate the extreme with the rest. Just because I want to eat pineapple pizza doesn’t mean I want to force everyone to eat pineapple pizza.
Look at this article. It constantly highlights how some members of the organization are extreme leaning. Yes, I’m sure there are. It’s a team game after all. But then we’re intentionally ignoring the vast quantity of people who aren’t.
The right is seeing authoritarian regime from the left as their children are now forced to learn about things they don’t approve of. Whether or not you think learning of LGBT+ in school is right or wrong is what you will be fixated on, but it is entirely irrelevant. Whether or not I want pineapple on pizza is irrelevant. Problem is forced. Problem is whether or not I’m forced to eat pineapple pizza. This is why you get such push away, why the centrists find themselves having to side with one or the other. They’re siding with the one they feel less repulsed to. Though people love to (mis)quote the paradox of tolerance and how they must intolerate the intolerant, they don’t realize this is said on both sides of the spectrum. Both sides feel forced by the other to suppress them, and then we continue to speculate on what is the other side through the extreme responses. This is why both sides keep saying they’re victims. This is why they both claim the other is a fascist. You might not be the extreme authoritarian so you probably think the argument is idiotic, bigotry, etc. because you brought a sensible argument. But some of the people on your team are. You probably don’t realize they’re behind you. But they’re the face the other side sees.
Though I did bring the solution, I doubt it’s a plausible one. I don’t think any significant number of people in the moderate political climate is interested in doing so. As seen by number of downvotes. Frankly, I think we’re fucked.
I think you shouldn’t speak until you work on your spelling, my God it’s atrocious.
