Not smashed, replaced with all powerful centralized federal agency and government controls, and started mandating things upon the work force….  Like a more ‘progressive’ Office of Labor-Management Standards 


don’t know about your easy astonishment or faddists but ‘socialists’ are history’s precursor to fascists. Understand that? 


Ah yes, famously socialist Weimar Republic 😂😂

 

Give up man, you’re grasping at straws and you know it.

no matter how many times affront the narrative of your party you fail.
 

Democrats’ history in America is that of the majority of racists and socialists who we know pave the way to fascism. It’s just fact. 
 

 


I think it’s time for you to log off for a while.

im going to burn this "the alchemist" book everyone said was life changing.  when its not even close.  Kidding,  I wont burn it. just put it on the shelf at work for used books that anyone can use/have.

 

I cannot even grasp people that burn or destroy crap they purchased with hard earned money, cause social wedge topic of the day.

Their confusion may stem from their misunderstanding of the definitions of words more so than their ignorance of history. They think “socialism” means “heavy centralized government intervention in macroeconomic affairs,” or something to that effect. Properly educated people know that the signature characteristic of socialism is the “workers owning the means of production.”

 

Right out of Marx.  And by workers you mean tax dollars with our out of touch government in control of private enterprise.  thats the state controlling the means of production. 

 

you got anything in stocks, investments, 401K?

 

I think the communism thing is because so many are pushing for a centralized government that provides rights/things.  and that sounds like communism to many

 

At the end of the day its just many words for Centralized authoritarian government that overrides states or local laws.  And picks and chooses winners with insane federal spending.  that all comes with strings attached.  thats openly purchased by 503C PACS and duel sided "charities"

 

And by burning books you mean keeping porn out of public school libraries?

 

 

What sector is unregulated?  cause that would be a sector with No government control of production.  the sticker shops all over?

 

De-Hop is way past his prime. would love the rest of the draft to fall that way though.

Not sure if this is just the one library but this is insane.

Thats insane. 

 

 "Harry Potter, The Hunger Games and Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry."  for real?

 

I understand a lot of schools are going to electronic versions of books and that is phasing out hard books. but to not have either option for age-appropriate literature like that is ignorant. 

 

And these are the progressives that did this?  in the name of equality and inclusion?  while screaming about people removing actual porn here?

 

Cant make it up.

I don't even get the part about "removing and checking every book prior to 2008."

 

What happened in 2008 that makes everything since, kosher.

 

When one acts on Ideology, they often lose track of logic.   this seems to be a great example of that.  

 

betting they all feel they are SJW and doing this for the children and less fortunate.

 

while the kids are actually suffering from their incompetence.

they removed it from classrooms thus banned in the schools.

sounds like the group going through the books is confused or trying to make a point. 

 

The list contains books found in teachers’ classroom collections, not in school libraries. Many likely were not part of required instruction but were available to students for independent reading. The district said it could not yet provide a full count of how many books have been removed from school libraries this year.

The books pulled from classrooms represent “over censorship” by media specialists operating under “great fear” because of the new state laws that hold them responsible for every item on a shelf, said Karen Castor Dentel, an Orange County School Board member as the board discussed the list at its Dec. 12 meeting.

“It’s creating this culture of fear within our media specialists and even teachers who just want to have a library in their classrooms, so kids have access,” said Castor Dentel, a former OCPS elementary school teacher.

 

The interesting part about all this is most school libraries have transitioned to electronic. IE IPADS and E books.  And this seems to be more about what the teachers want in the classroom's vs the library thats ran by a librarian.

Don’t worry you are still able to buy all the soft trans porn books you want, even in Florida, just don’t donate it to the local preschool when the pages are too stuck together to read it. 

Or at all

I never thought I'd see the day when people were pissed off about not having and advocating for porn in children's libraries.  What country and dimension are we living in?

Right. Now imagine negotiating in good faith with these people on mundane policy like tax law or the like.

 

You can't.

 

The woke commie mind virus infects everything.

Book burning is mundane to u?  Serious question 

Looks like the Saturday Fox lineup really gets them fired up. Maybe they put some caffeine in the Kool-Aid.

Quick reminder

 

No one is "burning books"

 

But carry on with your hysterics.
