The author, inspired by a recent Supreme Court ruling on parental rights regarding LGBTQ+ material in schools, argues that this decision allows them to shield their children from any lessons about Donald Trump. They believe that teaching children about Trump’s presidency could implicitly normalize behaviors they deem immoral, such as lying and bullying, which conflicts with their religious beliefs. The author draws parallels to the Supreme Court’s reasoning, citing the potential for classroom materials to undermine parental values. They conclude that any mention of Trump in the classroom could be seen as an endorsement of his actions and therefore an infringement upon their right to raise their children according to their faith.

The resurgence of Donald Trump and his administration necessitates a renewed emphasis on the societal importance of shame. Trump’s success stems from normalizing public displays of ignorance and unfounded claims by himself and his allies, exemplified by instances like his mischaracterizations of the New Orleans attack and Kennedy’s nomination to a critical health position. Tolerating such behavior, rather than publicly shaming it, has emboldened the spread of misinformation and harmful policies. Therefore, actively confronting and mocking demonstrably stupid statements from public figures is crucial to counteracting the influence of Trumpism.

A prankster, possibly Belarusian, managed to convince Russian teachers to wear tinfoil hats to protect themselves from NATO satellites. The teachers, despite the absurdity of the situation, were apparently eager to comply. They were likely influenced by a perceived authority figure, demonstrating a blind obedience that’s troublingly prevalent in Russia.
The Education Ministry’s response is equally perplexing. They praised the teachers for their “patriotic spirit” and “creative approach” despite recognizing the prank’s inappropriate nature. This response further highlights the lack of critical thinking and willingness to blindly follow orders within Russian society. The incident resembles the Milgram experiment, where individuals readily obeyed authority figures, even when it involved causing harm.… Continue reading
It’s mind-boggling to think that there are individuals out there who genuinely believe the outrageous claims being made by Alex Jones. The idea that Kamala Harris is controlling hurricanes using so-called ‘weather weapons’ is not only preposterous but also dangerous in its implications. One has to wonder where Jones comes up with these wild theories and why anyone would continue to support his platform despite his track record of spreading lies.
The fact that people are actually buying into this madness is truly concerning. The audacity to accuse Vice President Harris of such absurd actions, especially when the evidence points to the contrary, speaks volumes about the level of delusion present in some circles.… Continue reading
As a parent, reading the headline “US government report says fluoride at twice the recommended limit is linked to lower IQ in kids” immediately piqued my interest. The idea that something as commonly found in our water supply as fluoride could potentially have negative effects on children’s cognitive development is alarming, to say the least. However, diving deeper into the details of the report, it becomes evident that the devil truly is in the details.
The report highlights that the link between fluoride exposure and lower IQ was established in countries where the fluoride levels exceeded the recommended limits by a significant margin, sometimes even hundreds of times higher.… Continue reading
