If teachers could brainwash kids to the point of changing their sexual orientation, wouldn’t all schoolchildren become well-read, polite and clean well before they turn trans or gay?

No. Turning gay is very easy. All it takes is seeing two dudes kissing and you’re done. Maintaining your straightness requires constant vigilance.

Of COURSE gay is a choice. I CHOOSE to be heterosexual. It’s not an easy choice, but it’s a choice I make every single morning. I don’t understand how the rest of the world doesn’t understand this. They’re just waking up every day allowing teh ghey to overtake their spirit? How can ANYONE choose to live like that?

Stay strong brother! Just remember: if you fail, you will be butt raped by beefcake demons for all eternity. Nobody could possibly want that, right?

I chose to be straight so I’m going to heaven. Unlike my husband whose gay and is going straight to hell.

Very true. I learned I could become a girl and suddenly I was trans if I ever stopped re insisting I was a boy.

also by that logic there should be no gay or trans schoolchildren as homophobia and transphobia were in the curriculum way before queer people began to be accepted-ish in the society

Fucking seriously. The goons most likely to respond to this kind of propaganda are also usually the parents of the kids who aren’t listening to a damn thing the teachers say anyways.

We’re gonna have an entire generation where all the republicans are barely educated morons and all the democrats are normal people. Oh wait…

Invader zim was a good show for an alternative view on that future.

They want to indoctrinate kids (religion) so they assume everyone else wants to too. It’s always projection.

Um, I’m no expert, but I don’t think they allow transgender surgery in schools. 🤷‍♂️

You don’t have to have surgery to be trans

True, and I totally get that as well.

I’m sure you get my drastically oversimplified point though. School is supposed to be for learning reading, writing and arithmetic, and of course more advanced subjects later on.

I’m sure that no teacher worth their weight in salt is trying to convert anyone’s gender identity.

Even more Insidious than surgery… ideas! But I have no ideas to combat all of their evidence, psychologists, and medical experts… Damn, guess I better ban their ideas. All in a days work.

10 years from now

“Can I have a job here that has an infinite amount more knowledge required than I gained in homeschool?”

Lol no

Edit: I feel bad for the kids because this will be their experience in the job market if Republicans get their way. I’m not directing this at the kids.

Why I had to go to community college. Spent over a year just getting to the level I should have been at. Even then I really struggled. Wasn’t easy having that religious education holding me back.
