Yeah, ok. So not even pretending to hide it anymore. I fucking hate this country.
Why would they hide it? The more they flaunt, the more their base is emboldened. Turns out people fucking love evil.
You know how people say the fact that we never excised confederates/slavery from amongst us has led to modern issues? Well, the same holds true of Mormons. Most Americans have no idea the level of money, clout, and insane shit based in Utah. For example, I bet you didn’t know the Mormon church owns approximately 1 in every ~550 acres of privately-held land in the United States. Warning: the Mormon bullshit rabbit hole is deeper than you can imagine and may cause you to start writing a years-long book project, in my experience. You’ve been warned!
Mormonism is America’s future. It’s the prosperity gospel attached to a powerful lobbying contingent that exists to perpetuate MLM schemes.
If you think things are bad now, wait until Mormons are fully in control of California.
That’s a strange veer towards a completely unrelated topic… But anyway, considering that roughly 1 in 100 people are Mormon in the US, it’s not that surprising that 1 in 550 of the land also is. It’s surprising they’re trailing so far behind the average actually.
EDIT: oh wait, you mean the church owns it. Yeah, ok, that is very weird. But Mormonism is a very weird thing by definition…
Yeah, that’s church-owned. But does raise the interesting point of prominent Mormon billionaires/CEOs. And investment firms. And investments. And their history with the federal government/Republicans. And…
Even my “It was about states’ rights” History teacher didn’t have a Confederate flag. So, get bent Utah.
It’s Utah, WTF do expect.
Racism, bigotry, and polygamy.
Not alot of Jazz music though…as the NBA team would suggest
I suggest they change to the Utah Mormoms or Utah Polygamists.
“There are instances where in classrooms, you have curriculum that is needed to use flags such as World War II, Civil War,” he said. “You may have a Nazi flag. You may have a Confederate flag, and so you are allowed to display those flags… as part of the curriculum, and that is okay.”
There are no such instances. Students are fully capable of learning about the Confederacy and the Nazis without those actual flags being present in the classroom. They know this, so there must be some other reason they’re pushing this bill.
They’re also admitting that they don’t teach anything about LGBTQ+ at all in any realm. Not health class, civics, history, art, nothing.
I had friends raised in Utah. This is true. You might get a week-long unit at the high school, but otherwise, unless you have a GSA club, LGBTQ+ history is muffled.
But oohhhh, they’ll talk about Pioneer History every year in History class.
And by Pioneer History, they mean Mormon-church approved Mormon history.
We should do something about the Mormons.
Honest question: is there any other state/region in the world where a cult has unbridled power?
Utah boggles my mind.
To be fair, the LaserActive was a pretty cool system.
The only reason to have a nazi flag in a school curriculum, is to learn how to tear it down and rip it in two.
Y’all, it’s not 2014 anymore.
You want to change the symbolic stuff, your focus as to be on workers, jobs, and the economy first. The voters at large do not give a fuck about political correctness, SJW ideology, or fascism. They do give a fuck about being able to eat and provide for their families, though, and that’s how you’ll win them back.
