Because her in Texas it’s about Christian parent’s rights to not allow anyone to experience the diversity of reality because it might sway their children away from their religious worldview.

VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE! VOTE THEM OUT!

There is no logic to the justification the Christian Taliban uses to discriminate those that do not believe in their specific interpretation of a 2000 year old book.

GOP is all about stripping parents of choice. They want to brainwash kids with state-sponsored propaganda. Right now they’re teaching “opposing views” of things like the Holocaust and evolution, but later they’ll remove all dissenting viewpoints so all you learn is propaganda. Most schools in Texas don’t even properly teach the Civil War. It’s states’ rights and northern aggression. Many parents have no idea when they move here, then later come to regret it.

“The other side is hypocrites” is the weakest argument. Conservatives want parental rights on books in schools and no parental rights on trans medical procedures…sure, that could be hypocritical, but only if you’re saying “books in schools” and “trans medical procedures” should be in the same category.

No one is saying literally everything needs to be allowed as a parental choice, so it’s just a straw man to complain about hypocrisy when any given thing is banned instead of a parental choice.

Ostensibly, too, you the author think the conservatives are wrong on…both counts, right? Parents shouldn’t be able to ban books and they should be able to help their trans kids if they think it’s appropriate. So…aren’t you calling yourself a hypocrite too?

Just argue the position as the position.
