[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This culture is alive in schools, it's just hidden from everyone and wrapped in the social justice culture in our public schools. Although the intent seems correct, many people get caught up and hurt by it. For more information, please visit: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/31/style/cancel-culture.html. In my child's situation, it wasn't related to rape or anything as severe as nude, but [b]more in the lines of having a Christian value set and experiencing blowback about that, resulting in rumors being started about them being racist and bigoted.[/b][/quote]

Well, there are a lot of "Christian value set" people who are, in fact, racist and bigoted. I don't support children being "canceled" because their parents (you) taught them to be bigots, but this should be a wakeup call for your child that the beliefs they learned at home are not socially acceptable.[/quote]

There are a lot of leftist progressives who are, in fact, racist and bigoted as well. [/quote]

Not really. Not being tolerant of religious or other views that exclude, discriminate, or are bigoted is not being bigoted. People like to pull that card all the time "If you're not tolerant of my bigoted religious views then you're a bigot." Um, no. [/quote]

Yeah. I'm not gonna sit back and let an adult bigot have his time to share. I don't have to be tolerant of that nonsense.  I do, however, think there is some benefit in giving kids a chance to learn a little about life before writing them off. Getting canceled isn't likely to steer this kid in a non-bigoted direction. It's more than likely going to cause her to dig in her heels and cling to her "Christian values set" - whatever that means. I hope the OP's kid finds some kids she likes and who like her, and I hope she is kind and treats others (ALL OTHERS) the way she wants to be treated. Which is the only "Christian value" that matters IMHO.[/quote]
