[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m against all book banning on the right and the left. I am in the minority. The current D school board only supports their narrative as gospel and ignores their own censorship - as evidenced by the FCDC kicking out anyone with alternative views. [/quote]

The left is not book banning. And it's not censorship by the left when a private organization denies you membership. [/quote]

And I think the only criteria for being able to be a member of a democratic political organization is self identifying as a democrat. [/quote]

What you think and what’s been established are not the same things.  There’s no question but that the Fairfax Democrats are vetting and rejecting membership applications from people they believe have been critical of the all-Democratic FCPS School Board - regardless of whether the applicants otherwise self-identify as Democrats or even have a history of donating to other Democrats.  It’s akin to a loyalty oath, and they have a fairly low bar for when deciding people have ulterior motives for seeking to join the FCDC and should be turned away.

As a private organization that technically may be their prerogative but it creates a problem for everyone when the result is to sharply limit those who have a voice in endorsing candidates for public elections in a county that is now heavily Democratic. [/quote]
