‘No Such Thing As Other People’s Children’: Progressive Group Slammed For Creepy Attack On Florida’s Parental Rights Bill

The progressive group “Together Rising” is being slammed for its creepy attack on Florida’s “Parental Rights in Education” bill and for its point-blank admission that they view other people’s kids as something society should control. While it may seem like a new development, observers have been warning for several years the Left’s assault on the traditional family unit is explicitly linked to indoctrinating children with their progressive political agenda.

On Tuesday, the group shared a social media graphic, fear-mongering that the bill — incorrectly branded the “Don’t Say Gay Bill” by the Left — would harm children.  As The Daily Wire has previously reported, what the bill would actually do is ban teachers from instructing students in kindergarten through third grade on topics relating to sexual orientation and gender, among other things designed to protect children and increase parental rights and transparency.

Nonetheless, Together Rising pledged to provide financial support to LGBTQIA2s+ groups in Florida because “there’s no such thing as other people’s children.”

In a statement on its website titled “We Say Gay,” the group in part alleged that across the country children’s rights are being assaulted (emphasis added):

We know that the rights and safety of these precious children are being attacked not just in Florida and Texas but all across the country.

We stand with them and the LGBTQ+ community, and we will keep investing in these kids and their families.

Because there’s no such thing as other people’s children.

As a result, they are donating $150,000 to a number of groups, including, Compass Community Center, which is “a queer-led, deeply-respected community center in Palm Beach County that serves LGBTQ+ youth, starting at age 3.”

Zelensky Thirst Is Making Liberals Look Like Absolute Clowns

Every few years, during times of great political and sociocultural turmoil, liberals seek respite by sexually objectifying the first halfway decent-looking man they see. It happened with Michael Avenatti in 2016, then Robert Mueller the following year, and Gov. Andrew Cuomo during the 2020 pandemic. Sometimes, this sentiment results in uncomfortable public displays of horniness, as exemplified by Mueller erotic fan fiction and the infamous Beto O’Rourke sex tweet. But more often than not, it’s just embarrassing for everyone involved, particularly when these political figures reveal themselves to be more fragile than all-powerful Daddies and disappoint us, as they invariably do.

It seems, however, that liberals have failed to learn their lesson, as history is repeating itself with the latest horniness cycle over Volodymyr Zelensky, the president of Ukraine. Following Putin’s invasion of his country, Zelensky has made headlines for his staunch bravery in the face of brutal military aggression, posting photos on social media of himself drinking with his soldiers rather than hiding out, and reportedly telling the Biden administration when it offered to airlift him out of Ukraine that he needed “more ammunition, not a ride.” The fact that Zelensky is not an establishment politician, but a former comedian who once went viral for playing “Hava Nagila” with his penis, has only added to the public’s admiration of his integrity and sterling courage.

This admiration for Zelensky, however, is manifesting itself in an unsettling way: with women making thirsty posts about him on TikTok and Twitter, many consisting of slideshows of the president over Mariah Carey’s “Hero.”

The Left’s Support of the Persecution of Ottawa Protesters Ensures That It Will Be Used Against Them Next

A Western democracy is currently being toppled from within and turned into a fascist police state in which members of the political opposition to the ruling elite are being hunted down by the state. The Canadian government has viciously persecuted citizens, not just for protesting the vaccine mandates, but anyone who provided monetary support to them. This level of tyranny in the West should be raising alarm bells and red flags — especially among supposed advocates of civil liberties — but it’s not. Instead, many folks are supporting it.

The left has not only chosen to look the other way in regard to the treatment of the protesters and their supporters, but they have embraced the state’s tyrannical response. Even Anonymous has gone full fascist shill, and is applauding the abuse and subsequent response by the Trudeau regime.

The Neoliberal War on Dissent in the West

When it comes to distant and adversarial countries, we are taught to recognize tyranny through the use of telltale tactics of repression. Dissent from orthodoxies is censored. Protests against the state are outlawed. Dissenters are harshly punished with no due process. Long prison terms are doled out for political transgressions rather than crimes of violence. Journalists are treated as criminals and spies. Opposition to the policies of political leaders are recast as crimes against the state.

When a government that is adverse to the West engages in such conduct, it is not just easy but obligatory to malign it as despotic. Thus can one find, on a virtually daily basis, articles in the Western press citing the government’s use of those tactics in Russia, China, Iran, Venezuela and whatever other countries the West has an interest in disparaging (articles about identical tactics from regimes supported by the West — from Riyadh to Cairo — are much rarer). That the use of these repressive tactics render these countries and their populations subject to autocratic regimes is considered undebatable.

But when these weapons are wielded by Western governments, the precise opposite framework is imposed: describing them as despotic is no longer obligatory but virtually prohibited. That tyranny exists only in Western adversaries but never in the West itself is treated as a permanent axiom of international affairs, as if Western democracies are divinely shielded from the temptations of genuine repression. Indeed, to suggest that a Western democracy has descended to the same level of authoritarian repression as the West’s official enemies is to assert a proposition deemed intrinsically absurd or even vaguely treasonous.

The implicit guarantor of this comforting framework is democracy. Western countries, according to this mythology, can never be as repressive as their enemies because Western governments are at least elected democratically. This assurance, superficially appealing though it may be, completely collapses with the slightest critical scrutiny. The premise of the U.S. Constitution and others like it is that majoritarian despotism is dangerous in the extreme; the Bill of Rights consists of little more than limitations imposed on the tyrannical measures majorities might seek to democratically enact (the expression of ideas cannot be criminalized even if majorities want them to be; religious freedom cannot be abolished even if large majorities demand it; life and liberty cannot be deprived without due process even if nine of out ten citizens favor doing so, etc.). More inconveniently still, many of the foreign leaders we are instructed to view as despots are popular or even every bit as democratically elected as our own beloved freedom-safeguarding officials.
