They are indoctrinating kids AS YOUNG as 12 or younger to think their gay biology or transgender biology is... OK. Now.. before you get mad at me... I'm not advocating for hate against YOU. I'M SAYING there are cartoons... TODAY... Telling KIDS binary is ok. Being transgender is ok. Being gay is ok. That kid grows up kissing men in dresses.
Its one thing to be born with tendency towards being a woman, and acting like a feminine person. The other is the government desantizing kids into something else.. entirely.
Okay. This is where you cross a line into it becoming personal.
They are not "indoctrination" kids. They are recognizing that people who are gay exist, that people who are trans exist and teaching people that they exist and have rights like everyone else. What would be WORSE and lean towards indoctrination kids is to teach them only one thing, and I've seen the push for people to "ignore racist things from our past" in schools and teach "Patriotism" (Nationalism) then that is indoctrination. Since you mentioned "PEOPLE ARE BEING TAUGHT TO BE MARXIST" do you know when I first learned about Marxism, like the actual ideology? High school, grade 11 and that was when I took a sociology class where the goal is to literally learn to look at society from a variety of perspectives and argue from different points of view. Then more in Grade 12 when I took Political Science (once again, part of the discipline) and then later in University where I learned theories from Plato to John Locke, Marx to Adam Smith, to Trump and even Islam. I was taught TO think. I was shown that other disciplines and thoughts exist.
NOW, back to the part where you make it personal.
You know what the first time I learned about LGBTQ+ people in school? Grade 9 in High school Health class. It was taught by the school guidance councilor and she dealt personally with LGBTQ+ kids uncomfortable with coming out or being bullied for being who they are. You know what she told us? She told us they exist. That there are gay people or people who are bisexual. That there are trans people in the school and that they transitioned and feel comfortable being who they are. The fact that kids are learning about it sooner actually is a GOOD thing. It creates the conversation early, and they are aware they EXIST. Then funny enough, as young as 12, 13, that's when a kid goes through puberty, their body is changing, and on their own they may end up having these feelings. A failure to understand them leads to things like depression, and worse.
To put numbers in it, a study by Rasaki Aranmolate, Danielle R. Bogan, Tiffany Hoard, and Anthony R. Mawson titled "Suicide Risk Factors among LGBTQ Youth: Review" which I will attach here, states that LGBTQ+ youth are four to six times more likely to commit suicide compared to straight people due to rejection from their family/community, bullying from others, etc. That is alarming. Let's add the fact that if a straight couple holds hands in public it is normal, meanwhile if a same sex couple does the same then there is a chance that they will be harassed, assaulted, or worse. Now this is where I get a touch personal.
For years, as far back as me being a kid, I've never felt comfortable being who I was. I was cheerful, smart, but under the surface something wasn't quite fitting. I looked in the mirror and hated myself. Then finally in high school, I started to explore a touch, honestly subconsciously. I simply started to pick the female character in games. I liked it. Then eventually, people because of that, started naturally referring to me as "she/her" and at first I was like "W-What do I do?" and usually would say "Oh no, I'm a guy." But yet, when I did get referred to as a girl, something felt nice. I ignored it for years, but still played as whatever character in a game I wanted (usually female) and even had a female e-fed character or two. Then in University undergrad I just had nights where I'd feel uncomfortable, a tip of my tongue feeling. Then one night I was in a discord conversation years ago with a friend and it just clicked and I spat it out "I wished I was a girl!" and a weight was off my chest. That was years ago. I'm not out in person. It took a long time to even feel comfortable having some ONLINE circles of friends refer to me as she/her. Now, it is most places and I have told 3 people I know IRL of my feelings. I have a dress in my literal closet right now that I occasionally wear when I'm home alone an feel upset and need something to make me feel better. Why haven't I come out fully?
Because of assholes like you, that's why. Now this is where I may fall into ad hominem, so my apologies. But here you are deflecting things like "Oh, you do you," or "Hey, you can be feminine if you want," but also act DISGUSTED at the fact that schools are even teaching kids that LGBTQ+ people exist and are victims of harassment. You say "
That kid will grow up kissing men in dresses" being hateful of the fact they exist. There has been a growing awareness of this stuff not because of people being W O K E, it is because society's values have changed.
They have changed over time as we gained more awareness of this stuff, and it is always changing. That is why we are seeing more representation in media, because they're trying to tell more stories and show people that hey, it exists. At one point people would be disgusted at the very thought of a white kid and a black kid sharing the same classroom and go into a similar rant as you did there saying "Oh, black people aren't bad, but I don't want them in MY SCHOOLS!" Then the day you decided to post two giant-ass pictures of a women's ass with vagina in full view in the general chat, and I joked afterwards, "Hey, I may be a lesbian, but there is a time and place for that stuff," you responded (generally):
"I don't need you to bring your 'sex' into things,"
So the literal mention of it made you uncomfortable as a grown-ass man?
Let me tell you this before I ask some questions:
On this site, on WWEF when it was around, and across the fucking planet there are people in the LGBTQ+ community. Alone, there is
@Killer Orange Cat who mentioned he had a boyfriend,
@Nostradamus is bisexual and he's open about it. Then I know there are at least 4-5, maybe more who are trans on this site, myself included.
Now: Are you sickened by the fact that Jacob has a boyfriend he probably kisses and feels happy with?
Does the fact that Jonny is attracted to both male and females make you feel uncomfortable?
Does the fact that I, someone who was born male, wore a dress before with some lipstick and felt confidence and happiness I have never felt in my entire life make you sick?
Does me telling my story about my genuine feelings that I have struggled with for a large portion of my life makes you feel uncomfortable?
If I wear a dress irl in front of you, would you call me something like a f*ggot or make fun of me?
If any of those answers are "Yes," then congratulations, you're maybe a bit homophobic and/or transphobic! Why? Maybe it could a lack of education, awareness or exposure? Maybe it is a political hivemind like you talked about, being the "way it's been," and you're scared of change? Or it can be a place of hate?
If it is the former two, then there may be hope that you change, but if it comes from hate, then I am 100% done with you as a person. We have a right to exist. We have a right to be happy for being who we are as long as it doesn't harm anyone else, and it doesn't. We don't deserve to be treated like dogshit and if you can't coexist with people like us, then you don't belong on this site.
