I always thought it wasn't so much that they assumed that you were a retard, but rather that if they frame it as though you are retarded, then other leftists can jump in and make fun of you for being retarded, and since none of them ever engages with good faith, all those jumping in without knowing the facts, can all feel good about dunking on the ignorant, retarded, Nazi, and chalk it up as a victory for progressiveism, regardless of what the original dispute was about.
Homeschooling is the only sane option anymore. Academia doesn’t actually exist, it’s a rotten corpse bloated by bureaucratic maggots and feminist hot air.
The case covers a parent’s constitutional right to opt their child out of certain classroom materials on the First Amendment grounds that they conflict with his religious beliefs.
The Boston federal judge, F. Dennis Saylor IV, last year granted a preliminary injunction for the “devout Christian” father, Alan L., whose 5-year-old son J.L. attends kindergarten in Lexington.
So this Christian Massachusetts father of a 5 y/o boy initially was granted an injunction based on 1A & religious beliefs to shield his son from alphabet mafia BS at his public school.
...
The judge ordered that the school district and Joseph Estabrook Elementary School “make reasonable efforts to ensure that J.L. is not taught or otherwise exposed to all Other LGBTQ+ Educational Materials identified by plaintiff, whether in the classroom or any other school setting.”
As part of that ruling, the father needed to list all of the books that he wanted his son kept away from.
The school district in response argued that two books should not be listed under LGBTQ educational materials, and the judge this week ruled in support of the district.
So the judge first made the father do the heavy lifting of creating a list of ALL the subsversive books he wanted his boy to be excluded from.
The father does the work, making a list of dozens of such books. The public school board then wastes taxpayer dollars objecting that 2 books on the list shouldn't count, because the gender confusion agitprop is only subtle. They appeal that 2 of their preferred books should be taken off the list and taught to the 5 y/o boy under duress.
The judge agrees, stating that the two books can be taught without consent despite protest. That religious freedom & the 1A can be applied as narrowly as they wish, that the public teachers can curate the gay race communism exclusion list and that parental protest can be overridden by word games.
“Accordingly… defendants are not required to provide an opportunity for plaintiff to opt his child out of classroom instruction using the books Pink Is For Boys by Robb Pearlman and Except When They Don’t by Laura Gehl,” the judge wrote.
Pink Is For Boys features a series of pages that state a given color — “pink,” “blue,” “yellow,” “green,” “red,” “purple,” “brown,” “black,” and “white” — “is for girls. And boys.” The pages have images of a girl and boy taking part in the same activity — playing baseball, running in a forest, and setting up a popsicle stand.
Except When They Don’t features illustrations of young boys and girls taking part in stereotypically gender-appropriate activities, such as “Boys play monster trucks with glee. Girls bake cakes and serve hot tea. Girls like pom-poms, pink, and jewels. Boys like fighting pirate duels.” Then, after listing several similar activities, there’s a page that reads, “Except when they don’t,” with an illustration of a boy or girl doing what’s stereotypically considered the opposite gender’s preferred activity.
...
The attorneys representing Lexington Public Schools said this ruling shows that parents “do not have carte blanche when seeking opt-outs for religious reasons.”
...
“The LGBTQ+ acronym is inherently vague and, as a result, subject to overly broad interpretation by objectors like the parent in this case.
“The judge’s decision underscores the fact that opt-out requests need only be granted when the identified materials directly conflict with parents’ stated beliefs,” the lawyers added.
...
The Massachusetts Liberty Legal Center has been representing the father.
“This lawsuit has forced LPS to opt our client’s child out of over a dozen books that clearly violate his religious beliefs on sexuality and gender identity,” said Sam Whiting, counsel at Massachusetts Liberty Legal Center.
The courts are totally zogged; the kids will be out of high school before you even get a ruling.
On the other hand, fuck the laws. They're obviously no longer created or enforced in good faith, so just don't obey. Don't respond to court orders, don't pay fines, don't adhere to restrictions.
What are they going to do? Call the cops, who'll show up hours later, while you walk right in to the lesson and tell the whole class that sex is something you're born with, that you can't change, and should never be treated like a carnival ride? Not like a bunch of AWFLs and soycuck betas could physically stop you.
Stop playing their games. The law can't force them to do their jobs because they don't respect the rule of law, and they don't respect the rule of law because it's become a joke in the West. Live righteously and let the law eat your dust.
Sounds good on paper. Unfortunately: right wingers can be detained indefinitely (Tina Peters, J6), have our bank accounts frozen, our homes foreclosed on, and be assassinated in the media as "nazis" to the point our own won't stand with us. There are few exceptions like Shiloh Hendrix but if the tide is turning it's too slow and too small a scale to make a difference.
Leftists meanwhile can riot, create their own mini-states within states, blatantly disregard laws, attack LEOs and their pet niggers can even murder Whites in broad daylight and get a slap on the wrist. That one nigger just got his sentenced halved by a sheboon judge cuz da system be raciss n sheeit.
Cool, and when the kids get home, tell them the truth that a pedophilic cult has taken control of the education system and uses the control to spread their lies to children, because they are the most vulnerable. Then, explain the truth about the material, itself. Bonus points if you create an after school program that is open to other families, and corrects their lies. Maybe just two days a week would be enough.
Your kids need to know before their first day of Kindergarden, that anyone saying they can "chose their gender" is not just wrong, but bad.
Honestly, I used to be of the mind that I, as a parent, should refrain from indoctrinating my kids and let them decide for themselves. Seeing how this liberalism is exploited by bad actors, I now see how this is actually a retarded take.
Good parents indoctrinate their kids with their own ideology, the one that led them to be successful in the first place, before bad actora have the chance to fill their heada with nonsense. It's much easier to paint on a clean canvas than it is on one covered in horse shit.
The legal system has gotten so far into Feminine technicalities and rules and away from Masculine justice, cases now might as well be settled by wizards in robes reading from their arcane legal tomes casting spells at each other, and settled by a judge deciding who's spells were more powerful.
No, there are no rules or technicalities; it's pure high school drama.
Yes, there are lots of rules but they only apply if they want them to. If they don't care, the rules go away.
If there were rules, even terrible ones, we could use a technically consistent system to fight back.
But that's not the case. They will ban you from entering the school in the face of clear legislation guaranteeing your right to observe, and then cite "privacy concerns" to avoid discussing specific issues. No kidding, a group of parents at my school were completely shut down because we wanted to talk to people about their experience around bullying in the school.
They essentially are. Dry-cunt spinster cat lady judges (without law degrees or sometimes secondary education at all) are already letting niggers walk and throwing the book at Whites because they feeeeel like their feeeeeeeelings say it's right (read: peer pressure from other lefty harpies).
I just learned that my 12yo was doing a presentation on illegal, recreational drugs. I sent the teacher a short e-mail and he exempted her from the whole thing, even though it's a group project.
The short story long is that I've spent the last five years making noise at the school and calling out their shit (and volunteering) so they all know me and how annoying I'll make their lives if they piss me off.
I can't fix anything because they are masters of weaponised inefficiency, but I can break the stuff I don't like.

Until they trespass you, arrest you & ban you from school grounds permanently like they did to the Loudoun County dads.
I know the laws; in Ontario every parent and school board memeber has the explicit right to be on school property. They can call the cops and sink themselves into a legal quagmire of cthulean proportions, and I'm not the kind of guy to not make a big stink to the media.
The problem with the Loudon County guy was that he was still under the impression that the system was function and just run by bad actors. This is false, the system is completely against you. Know their rules, but don't play by them.
I love your vigour. But Oh, you sweet summer child
As a Leaf, you have zero rights.
Conservative Premier Doug Ford a few years back allowed one of his supposed commie NDP enemies to write his government's entire alpha mafia school border legislation. In which they were about to give power to school boards to levy fines against parents who complained or didn't bend the knee (the bill didn't go through because it didn't get royal assent before one of his re-elections).
The very OPP cruisers that will scream into the parking lot to arrest you will be adorned with the gay race communism flags.
We're getting dangerously close to might-makes-right being the only "rule of law." Maybe we're already there and I'm just too dumb to see it. I want the 2000s back.
I did homeschool for 4 years and I loved it. I got to customise my kids' education to their interests and, more importantly, I had an opportunity to personally teach them all those life skills (cooking, cleaning, finance) that schools historically fail at. And it worked; at my school only about a quarter of the kids even pass the standardised test for math and about half for reading and writing while my kids both got 80%+.
There are two reasons they went back.
One, they wanted to. It's where their friends are, where they make plans, and where they create their own cultural context. It would have been great if their friends' parents were willing to homeschool as well, but I was never able to convince them.
Two, it's not just about my kids. My kids are going to grow up into a world where everyone else is retarded and they at least need to learn how to deal with retards. I do my best to make sure they understand the system they're in but I can't protect them forever; one day they're going to have to deal with this mess. School is a decent place to cut their teeth because there's zero consequences. They can do anything they want because the admins know me and don't even bother to call if they just don't show up at school for half a week. My oldest led his class in ridiculing the queer sex ed lessons they were getting and I sent a letter explaining everything stupid about what they were doing; they didn't even reply.
What I've learned is: getting the school to do things right is almost impossible for the same reason I, and my kids, can basically get away with anything. They are checked out as fuck. Nobody in the school system give a single crap about anything but their next paycheck. They've created systems that let them appear to be doing their jobs while they do sweet fuck all. I don't jump through a single hoop and they've completely given up even asking me to.
My solution is to do everything I can, including via my kids, to raise burnout rates.
Not true - as was seen in the UK a few years ago, Muslims protesting against their children being fed trans propaganda is one of the few things that will make the left turn against them.
I've seen reports that absenteeism is very high in Muslim areas on days that schools celebrate one of the various alphabet mafia fealty humiliation rituals.
Leftists play word games and assume you are too much of a retard to figure what they are doing.
It happens constantly up here with NPCs bleating that Leafland doesn't have "Freedom of Speech", but instead "Freedom of Expression".
Oh, thanks for clarifying that irrelevant nuance, commie faggot!
Technically, we only have freedom of gender expression.
Otherwise it's a privilege that the government can revoke at any time for any reason.
I always thought it wasn't so much that they assumed that you were a retard, but rather that if they frame it as though you are retarded, then other leftists can jump in and make fun of you for being retarded, and since none of them ever engages with good faith, all those jumping in without knowing the facts, can all feel good about dunking on the ignorant, retarded, Nazi, and chalk it up as a victory for progressiveism, regardless of what the original dispute was about.

If leftists get their way, the next headline would read:
"Massachusetts father cannot opt his kindergartner out of public school due to education, anti-homeschooling laws."
Or maybe:
We're hitting Sodom and Gomorrah levels of satanic inversion.

We used a different word with the same meaning and intent but that doesn't violate your rights. TeeHee

I'm sure you already know to have a lawyer on speed dial. Keep a second in case the first opts not to take your case.
Wouldn't it be easier to just... Homeschool?
If you know the teachers are subversive cunts why bother with all the hoops?
Excellent question.

It depends on the size of the community. His work potentially benefits dozens of other families.
Wouldn't be an issue if the father was Muslim and wanted his kid protected from this leftist propaganda.
Not true - as was seen in the UK a few years ago, Muslims protesting against their children being fed trans propaganda is one of the few things that will make the left turn against them.
Sure, the left frown on it.
But the law won't come down on them and ruin their lives.

We Canada now
