[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would be nice if Fairfax Dems were as passionate about academics as they are about these books.

I guess they need to prioritize.  [/quote]

Part of being passionate about academics is showing respect for the hard work of our teachers and librarians, respecting their training, professionalism, and dedication.  Cherry-picking quotes and mischarateyizing their context in order to demonize our educators is not good for academics, not good for children, not good for communities.  Our teachers have been under siege this year from attacks from rabid parents taking out their COVID rage on them.  Now we have political agitators attacking school librarians.  So yeah, I’m going to stand my ground against that.

You know what?  There is also a book that they’re forcing FRESHMEN to read and it involves kids of middle school age having sex, running away from home, and overdosing on drugs!  And it glorifies defying parents and dying by suicide!!!!!!  OMG!  Call the GOP!

(Oh, wait.  It’s not a gay relationship so apparently all that is okay.)[/quote]

Exactly.

Maybe if they were better educators they wouldn’t need to rely on such “edgy” material to appear relevant.

Unfortunately for them there is such a thing as a tipping point.

Happy to see more parents finally holding this declining school system and its craven, immoral leadership accountable.
