the thing with reactionaries is that they never, ever stop there is no such thing as a permanent win - not on abortion, not on LGBTQ rights, not even on fucking creationism somehow you can never let your guard down

As religious alternatives will need to be taught, how many different creation stories will be included on the syllabus now? Chronos devouring his children? Anansi tricking Nyame out of the stories which told the world what it was? Maui pulling the islands up from the seabed with his fish hook?

I agree. They'll drag anything into the trenches of their culture wars, whether it be M&Ms, gas stoves, bud light. Anything is a target for their misery... well anything but the ruling class.

Thinking about Bill Hicks yesterday for some reason and I remember him talking about how the little demons just never stop coming for us, or words to that effect.

Americas war against science and intelligence never lets up. Let's hope Darwin hands out many awards to these botem feeding troglodytes

This will last for approximately as long as it takes for the Satanists to sue to have THEIR version of a creation story taught in schools.

It's so fucking exhausting, and I haven't even actually had to take any action yet. Haven't stepped into the political world officially and I already want nothing to do with it. Just feels like an endless uphill battle where nothing good ever gets done, and I'm already sick of hearing it.

I mean, we’ve got Putin rambling on about the Kievan Rus and Ben-Gvir ranting about Judea and Samaria. The Scopes trial might as well have been yesterday compared to some of the ancient causes that animate these maniacs.

I can't with this insanity. Which is if course what they want—for people to give up in the face of the onslaught. Fascism is similarly an insatiable juggernaut.

As a Christian who was traumatized by baptist discrimination and turned away for a long time due to it religion should NOT be taught in schools

Something snapped in the GOP & Right wing media after the two major parties switched ideologies in the Civil Rights Era.
From Goldwater on, trying to turn back time with perpetual, performative outrage.
#RickPerlstein's books capture it perfectly.

The most fundamental failing of the left (and I mean across the entire left) in my lifetime is that so many of us truly believed that progress could only be hindered, never reversed.

think this was also a wakeup call on actually making gay marriage official law rather than a court ruling.

This is what happens when you're opposed to learning--you never learn. Doesn't matter how many times they're beaten, they learn nothing from it and come back with the same shit over and over

The age old issue when fighting extremism is they have all the passion to fight for what they believe The middle ground majority will always just sleep walk into what ever disaster is about to hit us next. The Human Rights Act was a good start but again never defended with the passion it is attacked
