[quote=Anonymous]OP here, this is convincing to me, thank you. Definitely changes my view.

[quote=Anonymous]Below are Brenda Diaz's own words from her substack:

[quote]Currently, leftist ideologies are deeply embedded within our school system, limiting freedom of thought and expression. BLM and LGBTQ+ flags adorn classrooms and hallways. Critical race theory is at the center of Social Studies education, from elementary to high school. These ideas are presented as the only course of righteous action for the rising political activists our schools aim to create. We risk entrenching our children in unnecessary future turmoil when we frame the trends of our time as the only just causes. When “all the things” that are good can only come from the Left, what happens to anyone who believes differently? Where do those children and their families fit in our schools and our communities?[/quote]

I don't agree with the above and won't be voting for her. She sounds extremely partisan and is essentially defending the "right" to hate others without repurcussions.

Here is some reporting on her opposition to vaccine mandates. You can disagree with the mandates (I don't think they were a good idea) and also disagree with her equating them with Jim Crow, which I find deeply disrespectful.

[quote]Diaz said in the testimony that a resolution to create vaccine requirements to enter establishments such as bars and recreation centers would “impose the unlawful and immoral segregation” between vaccinated and unvaccinated residents.

“It is, indeed, the modern-day Jim Crow. As such, the harm that this measure will cause to our county if you choose as a body to act beyond your bounds is immeasurable,” Diaz’s testimony said. “You will divide families and communities by pitting the vaccinated and the unvaccinated against each other.”  [/quote]
