SCOOP: The Evanston/Skokie School District has adopted a radical gender curriculum that encourages PK-3 students to celebrate the transgender flag, break the "gender binary" established by white "colonizers," and experiment with neo-pronouns such as "ze," "zir," and "tree."

🧵
In pre-kindergarten, the children are taught an "introduction" to the rainbow and transgender flags. Teachers then provide the basic concepts of gender identity, explaining that "we call people with more than one gender or no gender, non-binary or queer."
In kindergarten, the teachers explain: "When we show whether we feel like a boy or a girl or some of each, we are expressing our gender identity ... There are also children who feel like a girl and a boy; or like neither a boy or a girl. We can call these children transgender."
The kindergartners read books that affirm transgender conversions, look at photographs of boys in dresses, and perform a rainbow dance. At the end of the lesson, the students are encouraged to share their own gender identities with the class. "Your identity is for you to decide!"
In first grade, the teacher encourages students to experiment with gender pronouns such as "she, tree, they, he, her, him, them, ze, zir, [and] hir." The students read gender scripts and the teacher reminds them: "Whatever pronouns you pick today, you can always change."
In third grade, students are told that white European "colonizers" imposed their "Western and Christian ideological framework" on racial minorities and "forced two-spirit people to conform to the gender binary." The teacher encourages them to "break the binary."
The lessons conclude with an encouragement to reject the system of "whiteness" and write a letter about becoming political activists. "Society right now is very unfair,” reads a sample letter. "I see a lot of marches on the T.V. and I even went to a march last summer."
The curriculum in the Evanston/Skokie School District is the perfect illustration of college-level Queer Theory translated into early-elementary pedagogy. Parents have a right to be concerned and legislators have a duty to ensure that public schools reflect public values.

WaPo wants to destroy @LibsofTikTok because she is totally independent and has more influence as an anon than 95%+ of regime journalists. They use dupes like @TaylorLorenz, who is entirely dependent on her employer's prestige and willing to degrade herself to maintain it.
Last year, WaPo tried to destroy me as my campaign against critical race theory was gaining traction. But I fought back and forced the paper to retract or add six full paragraphs and admit that its key accusation against me was completely false.

WaPo's doxxing against @libsoftiktok is even more egregious. But, as in my case, I expect it will backfire. I'd encourage Libs to immediately set up a Patreon and use this moment to build an independent source of income. I'd gladly sign up to support her—as would many of you.

.@AbigailDisney called Walt Disney a "racist," but trades on his name for status. She said she gave away her inheritance, but kept $120 million. She presents herself as a "human rights activist," but won't condemn Disney's complicity in Uighur genocide.
Her claim—that the Parental Rights in Education Act seeks to "erase every reference to gayness and gay people from the planet"—is so transparently wrong, one must conclude that, among the unemployed rich, the desire for status-signaling overwhelms basic factual understanding.
Abigail Disney is the human equivalent of AOC's "tax the rich" dress. She pretends to transgress elite interests, but is perfectly absorbed into elite culture. If she were truly a "class traitor," she would condemn Disney's complicity in the Uighur genocide.

In 2014, CNN did a six-month investigation on Disney's child predators and recommended more sting operations to catch "so many more sexual predators."

In 2022, CNN now says that mentioning *this exact problem* is a conspiracy theory from the "QAnon factor." ImageImage
Yesterday, the Left was having a meltdown about my tweets highlighting these stories. But my position is the same as Anderson Cooper's in 2014: Disney, which claims to be a moral voice for children, has a child predator problem that should concern parents across the country.
It wasn't "QAnon" to point this out in 2014 and it's not "QAnon" to point this out now. The story is relevant again because Disney is claiming to be a moral authority on child sexuality, which makes their record on child sexuality within the company fair game.

LMAO: The Disney heiress, who inherited $100+ million and cosplays as a "class traitor," is coming after me now. The most privileged people on the planet pretend to be avatars of the oppressed and they are absolutely pathetic.
I met a lot of these people when I was an undergraduate at Georgetown. They are the most entitled, narcissistic, status-obsessed people imaginable. They adopt identities and moral causes to project their problems onto the world and "solve" them with their inherited wealth.
But deep down, Abigail knows that she doesn't deserve it, couldn't survive without, and isn't morally strong enough to give it away. And so she builds an image as a "class traitor," wants to "outlaw private jets," and tries to evade that gnawing sense that she's a fraud.

The NYT believes it's a "free speech problem" that government employees can't promote collective guilt and early sexualization to kindergartners. It's not only wrong—public school teachers do not have unlimited First Amendment rights in the classroom—it's dangerous.
The people, through their democratically-elected legislators, get to decide which values their public institutions transmit to the next generation. Policymakers have the authority and the obligation to shape public institutions toward the public good.
Public school teachers cannot do whatever they want. They must follow the standards enacted by the state legislature, submit to the authority of democratically-elected school boards, and serve the parents and families who are their primary stakeholders.

Ketanji Brown Jackson is a lifelong admirer of the father of critical race theory, Derrick Bell, who wrote that the Constitution was like "roach powder," that whites might commit "racial genocide," and that his motto was "I live to harass white folks." Image
This isn't a speech from thirty years ago. It's from January 20, 2020. She endorses a book that was foundational to critical race theory and made the case that, given the choice, whites would trade African-Americans away to space aliens and banish them from the universe.
This isn't just metaphorical. Bell told NPR's Fresh Air he believed whites would make the trade in real life. He argued in the book that the history of slavery was not only "an example of what white America has done," but "a constant reminder of what white American might do."
