The ‘Save the Children Convoy’ is struggling as organizers accuse one another of being ‘undercover cops’ or planning ‘violence’ and ‘terrorism’
To be entirely fair there’s a significant chance some of them are undercover cops. But that’s neither here nor there.
Not surprised. Half of the traffic I see from exploding heads is framed as ‘won’t someone please think of the children?’
They scream “think of the children”, but always act in ways that harm children. All because their ideology doesn’t give a rat’s ass about protecting children, just controlling them.
Yeah, preaching to the choir there. Those are the last folks I want around my kids, because they just want to use them, and I grew up surrounded by people like that.
The convoy thing is weird. The participants have decided they’re angry, and they don’t like something, so they’re gonna drive somewhere. But they don’t have a common concern that they’re angry about, nor do they have a solution
“Save the children is basically a generic statement obviously,” lead convoy organizer Gordon Berry told PressProgress. “There’s a multitude of things you could be saving them from.”
Berry says the convoy wants to save children from the “human trafficking industry,” but also from “mandating the shots to kids and kids getting sick and frigging education and all the stuff they’re teaching them in schools and the trans agenda and the math agenda, gender dysphoria – all of these things.”
It’s like the yellow vest convoy and the antivax convoy. And Occupy Wall Street.
The “Math Agenda”?
“If our kids learn more about statistics and logical inference, they’ll stop listening to us!!!”
“They way they teach math now, it’s different from how I learned it in school. That must be because of the trans Chinese Communist Party!!”
I’m admittedly working from a small sample size, but I know of at least one religious school that refused to teach any math that involved graphing on an x/y/z axis because satan. I think they were actually mad about Rene Descartes, but a huge part of geometry/algebra took the hit. Or rather, the kids’ education did.
“We begged them to teach us this because we all knew it was on the SAT exams, but they refused.”
It was a shame. I spent a pleasant evening going over some of the basics with a guy who graduated from that school - including the basics of calculus - and he seemed to pick it up pretty quickly. We weren’t solving problems, obviously, and it was 15 years too late for the SAT but we covered “here’s what it is and here is how it can be used in problems.”
Even sadder - I have a nephew who wanted to become a scientist when he grew up. It wasn’t some little kid thing either. He had an enduring interest in the topic and he was a clever kid. That was never going to happen because at some point he would have needed to go to a school that taught math and science. His school did not, and secular colleges were not going to be much of an option for him since he would need to leave the safety of their insular world.
He’s a baby Nazi now, and seems to be dabbling in incelism.
Squintyt McProudBoy’s “base” are doing what now? #pierrepoilievre
