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.
