In a way you’re right, this should be being policed by their employer, the school, but it’s not

Conversations about not feeling like you are a man or woman or what you are attracted to are not appropriate for little kids. It’s just not. It can be borderline sick, like I said, imagine the scenario where a middle aged man wants to talk to a classroom of first grade girls about how he is attracted to women. Gay people should not get a pass for borderline pedo behavior

If the schools won’t police it, then government has to

Republicans think supporting a Democratic nominee to the Supreme Court is borderline pedo behavior, you shitheads are the boy who cried wolf.

So Ukrainians violating human rights of illegal separatists post an invasion by Russia means Russia can police Ukraine by an expanded invasion?

Color me skeptical, although I do agree that Ukraine should adhere to the principles of the Geneva convention.

It only helps the Russian position when we make common cause with monsters. 🇺🇲

I think this is to a large extent a red herring for DeSantis and others to run to the right of anyone in a primary. I don’t think it happens all that often and I maintain it’s a terrible precedent that will be used by leftist democrats at some point in the future

Oh I agree it is probably much more rare than the GOP thinks

And like I said before, this should be handled by our higher education system and by the employers. A large part of higher education is communication, and part of that is what is effective and appropriate communication for your workplace

It’s the same idea as employers discouraging communication about politics or religion in most workplaces. Why is this done? Because these topics can be provocative and cause a lot of turmoil. Are they illegal? No, but a good employer should fire someone who continues to try to get in political or religious arguments with their co-workers

A teacher’s job is to educate, not socialize. It’s the kids job to socialize each other (not that they realize this, but it is), the teachers responsibility there is to do their best to make sure that socialization isn’t destructive to the child, such as extreme bullying. That’s it

That’s why the bill should be seen as anti-grooming more than anti-gay. Talking about your sexuality or sex life to little kids, whether it’s straight or gay can be seen as grooming. And talking about yourself to excess is a sign of a bad teacher with a narcissistic personality. Especially since these are classrooms of little kids without the interest or ability to comprehend most of the plethora of spewed information about the person’s sexuality

Oh the one who wants to give pedophiles, one of the disorders with the lowest possible rehabilitation rates in existence a pass because the laws were pre-internet or something? Yeah, you’re right, keep them in society around kids as much as possible, what’s the worst that can happen

[unsunghero]

I remember my ma related one time when I was really little like 5 she saw me punching myself in the dick and when she asked what I was doing I said something like “aaa! Why is my penis standing up?” And she was like “uhhh you’re gonna have to talk to your dad about that”

If a kid said that to their teacher that is the appropriate response. Not something like “Sometimes Billy our penises stand up because they fill with blood. Did you know your teacher Mr. Waters feels like his penis doesn’t belong to him? Have you ever felt that way? I just want you to know it’s ok if so”

It’s just fuckin weird to be discussing with little kids

Ukraine is a corrupt kleptocracy. In the face of blatant Russian imperialism + the worst human rights and refugee situation in Europe since World War II, I think it’s clear we have to side with Ukraine. And we’re not even fighting. I don’t understand the opposition or what you suggest we do. Let Ukraine get conquered by force and her citizens be liquidated to modern gulags? I think we have to do everything to support Ukraine and stop Russia short of NATO intervention militarily

I know you like hearing some Matt Walsh takes, one I heard recently is he played a video of a gay teacher who claimed to be “deathly afraid” that he could get sued for saying that he went paddle boarding with his husband if one of his first grade students asked how his weekend went

Matt’s comment was to ask what 6yr old ever EVER asks what you did over the weekend. First graders are completely self-absorbed people, clearly this teacher is also self-absorbed and wanted to talk to his class about his weekend and had to pretend that they would be interested

And it’s true, I’ve talked to probably hundreds of 6-7yr olds in my job over the years and never once has one been like “hey man, how’d your weekend go? You do anything fun?”. It’s just not the level that someone that age is functioning at

As far as six year olds are concerned the teachers live at school. I mean, in my case I was right about this as I went to Hogwarts, but generally it is the children that are wrong.
