Some People Never Learn

In 2021 Virginia Democrat gubernatorial nominee and
past governor Terry McAuliffe declared in a debate with 
his Republican opponent Glenn Youngkin that "I don't
think parents should be telling schools what they should
teach" their children. He didn't know it at the time but 
with those very words McAuliffe blew his campaign to
return to the governorship of Virginia, and his party's 
chances of retaining control of the Virginia House of 
Delegates. McAuliffe went on to learn a hard and 
bitter lesson about Virginia voters; that they know 
that they have parental rights as to having a say in their 
children's education, and that they won't take any guff 
from some elitist politician who thinks that the parents 
should shut up, pay their taxes for the school system's
upkeep and vote as they're told (that is, for elitist pigs 
like McAuliffe). 

Over the course of the last two years in Virginia, Democrats
have done their most dastardly best to undermine and 
weaken parental rights. In the Virginia Senate, they 
blocked an amendment to SB 1515, a bill that will require
pornography websites to verify a user's age, ascertaining that 
said user is at least 18 before allowing access. The bill passed
and was signed into law, but the state Senate Democrats --- 
every last one of them --- rejected an amendment backed by
Gov. Jim Youngkin (R) which would have required children to 
get parental consent to set up social media accounts and use
other websites which collect user data. Among them are, 
of course, most if not all porn sites.

These happenstances are happening not just in Virginia; 
they are taking place in many other states and certainly 
in Washington D.C. Democrats are attacking parents 
along with their rights, trying to silence their voices, 
attempting to make them into obedient, non-questioning
"sheeple" all over the country. In Nevada, Assembly-
woman and chairwoman of the Nevada Democrat Party,
was discussing the importance of "parent input" in 
public education and was quoted as saying, "I wish I 
could legislate what parents do." Oh, really? Time to 
draft and deliver your walking papers, lady!  
We heard from our president regarding same as well.
When at a bash in honor of the teachers of the year,
which Biden himself hosted at the White House, 
Biden proclaimed that "there's no such thing as someone
else's child" and "our nation's children are all our children."
In sum, Biden and his fellow Dems think that the 
government knows better re: what's good for your children;
you peasant parents are just too stupid to make that
determination for yourselves. 

Now, that notion has proved a loser in Virginia, and will 
likely be so again with next year's elections looming 
larger and the Virginia Dems just two seats from losing 
their razor-thin majority in the only legislative chamber
where they hold sway, having lost their majority in the 
state House of Delegates last year. And you know that
Virginia's Republicans will campaign on preserving
parental determination. Their slogan on this matter 
could be stated simply: Parents should parent
their kids, not Big Brother. 

And this is a wonderfully effective weapon to use against 
the Democrats' bulwark of woke, their "bull-woke", if you 
will.
