Haven't heard about little boxes in this area , but they are certainly trying to convince kids that they are the wrong gender.
Except that's not really happening it's just that if a kid says he's transgender then they let him be transgender. They're not trying to talk kids into being transgender

I've been saying what? Vaccines don't cause autism? They don't
And you have absolutely no proof, no double blind studies, no genuine scientific research that proves there is no correlation between the vaccines and autism. That is because you are the one who is anti science. If you were pro science you would support genuine, independent scientific research on this question.

MAGA people are the middle of the country. I was in FL for vacation when Biden was still in office. I was there with my parents and husband. It was when the 13 soldiers were killed in Afghanistan. We were hoping to forget politics during our stay but it was all over the tv. We were feeling so defeated for the country, worried he and his crew would get in again.

As my husband and I were walking around the gardens of an historic home we came up on my parents speaking to a man their age. They were in deep discussion, he greeted us and said he believed Trump would win the election. He walked on and my mother told me that he had encouraged them not to be discouraged. He told them "there are a lot more of us than there are of them". He was a part of some Christian group and said that they were in prayer and there was support for Trump all over the country. We felt uplifted that day. So please be careful how you speak about people. Many of us took these elections very seriously. We prayed and sought God. We didn't just blindly vote.
There was roughly 75 million votes versus 78 million votes out of 400 million people. Minus those under 18 there's alot more people in the middle and those who just dont care either way. There has got to be some playbook somewhere that says "how to run for office" step one walk outside and if you are in the city call yourself a Democrat say you hate guns and love abortion if you are in the country call yourself a republican say you love guns hate abortion and call yourself a Christian. When you win dont forget those who paid you money to get elected. These people in DC dont give 2 terds about you the only reason they say they are for or against certain things is because they know you care. Then when you vote for them it's business as usual. And people swallow it hook line and sinker

Except it is. There's a report this morning of a teacher doing just that. She admitted that she was not complying with the law and her contract has not been renewed. It's happening all over the country so I don't know what cave you live in that you're missing it. I'm living in typical small town USA here and there have been two incidents in my town. One teacher was pushed into retirement because he refused to agree that he would not inform parents if their child wanted to be a different gender or wanted trans surgery. The other person I know personally. His daughter was told by her teacher all year that she was miss-gendered. Her parents were not told this. By years end she came to her father, told him that she wanted to be a boy and what had happened. I'm not sure if he has decided to sue, but I sure hope he does. The parent is the authority in the life of their child, not the gov't, not the school.

One weird guy walking around town doesn't equate to schools putting litter boxes in the bathroom.
Same ideology supports both. I've also seen the kids that are a little too old for dress up and make up as animals out in public with their very progressive looking adults. And their actions didn't come across as play acting.

Coming out of the closet is an ideology. People that argued against slippery slopes, though a fallacy, inherently knew or at least highly suspected that the closets were a lot deeper than some thought and once mental illness was celebrated and supported, we were in for a ride.

You may see litter boxes as fallacies but once the restrooms are open and common to all, to think that "all" doesn't keep accumulating to accommodate all is simply naive. That was the discussion we were having during the marriage debates. Some of us said where we expected this to go. It went there and faster than we expected.

Greater the pity. That's how people like AOC get elected. Dumber than a box of hair.

No, the divide is much further than that. That used to be the mark of Dem v Republicans. Right now the head of the Dems are AOC and Bernie, both socialists. There has been a radical shift in the Dem party where even die hards like Bill Maher are saying it's ridiculous. It used to be you'd vote for whoever you thought was best for your pocketbook. The parties weren't that far apart. Slick Willy Clinton got elected a second time by coming to the center. DOGE is showing how Dems have been defrauding the tax payer for years. I believe there is a difference in the parties. And I do believe that one side cares, and real middle of the road Dems that care have left the party.

Up next, and you can mark my words, is pedophilia. When the lefties start changing terms you know it's going to be their next pet cause. Now they are "minor attracted persons". Because when you say love is love it opens the door to anything a demented mind can conceive. Watch and see if that's not the next thing they will push everyone to accept.

Years ago I watched some videos from back in the 70s I think it was when the US senate was considering honoring the views of pedophiles ... and of course since then I've tried to find those videos again but I can find no record of it...

That is 100% not going to happen.
