One asymmetry is that the people who choose what goes in the library are all insane leftist ideologues, while the sensible parents who object are people with real jobs. So when the librarians or other decision makers choose to stock pornography, while declining to stock, say, Thomas Sowell or other conservative authors, they are just exercising discretion. When parents object to the curation decisions already made, they are engaged in “book banning.” Because parents are only involved in the library curation process on the back end, and because no one likes “book banning,” they’re set up to fail. They have no other recourse.

The other asymmetry is that ideologues write books specifically geared towards indoctrinating children. Cultural conservatives, as far as I know, do a lot less of this.

So… more sensible people need to become librarians and write children books, I suppose. Maybe it’s time for me to become a YA graphic novelist…

I thought you had to do substantial and original research to get a PhD. Thanks for introducing me to Dr. Corey Jackson, ugh. With a cast of characters like him in the legislature and Newsom in the governor’s office, it’s no wonder we get a steaming pile of awful new laws every year.

These are the kinds of people we used to keep far away from any decisions regarding children. Far away like in jail. They are way too interested in sexualizing children, & it’s ALWAYS to the deviant side. Is anyone asking these sickos why the intense interest in kids? Reading recently that an 11 year old was confused about her sexuality!? I find it crazy that at 11 it even crosses her mind. She’s 11!! The idea was obviously planted, definite grooming going on at school while it’s kept a secret from the parents. Parents - wake the hell up, it’s past pitchfork time.

Gist, fervent effort to keep American black individuals dependent to slavery/victim mentality so that they can be tools for the manipulative and immoral ruling class. Utter immoral abuse of people and community, disrespectful of the dignity of good portion of Americans. Shame on the patronizing perverts and dehumanizers.

Pretending that dumb is the same as smart leads to having to pretend that perverse is the same as healthy and more generally that lies are the same as truth.

“Corey Jackson on track to be California's first Black openly

LGBTQ state lawmaker”

A movement or organization can be “LGBTQ,” but how can a PERSON be “LGBTQ?” How can a person simultaneously be:

Lesbian

Gay

Bisexual

Transgender

Queer

It's clowns all the way down, isn't it. Dr. Corey, meet Dr. Jill - have you read her dissertation, by the way? It's floating around on the web, middle-school level writing. She used roughly the same sample size to support her findings too.

My dad has a Ph.D. in microbiology. He's worked in research all his career and developed things that actually saved people's lives, but most folks who meet him have no idea. He's never insisted on being called doctor, never introduces himself as such, and rarely talks about his work except with family and co-workers. He paid his way through graduate school doing roofing and siding, by the way - back when every nail had to be put in by hand. With a hammer. I'm proud to be descended from such stock.

Living in TX, I am so jealous that you in CA have such an extremely dedicated professional, with highly professional credentials, from a top tier academic institution, that is highly credentialed, as well. I don't know, but CA seems to have large numbers of these obviously much smarter and much better, people than we do in TX. I don't know how we have been able to survive without them. We do have Sheila Jackson Lee, but I don't think she has the credentials that are needed from a highly credentialed institution like you have in CA.

I don't have time to add anything more to this missive, as me and my White supremacist, Christian, Nazi, homophobic, Islamophobic, illegal alien phobic friends are going out to find more books to burn and people of color to oppress.

From an academic perspective, DR. Corey Jackson is superior to Claudine Gay. As half-assed & comical as his survey & 56 pg dissertation were, he actually did them, while Gay merely ripped off the very real & authentic Dr. Carol Swain.

I think CA Republicans need to establish the “NAMBLA Pedophiliac of the Year Award” and award the initial certificate and prize of a tube of KY to DR. Corey Jackson.

Reading those excerpts, I was thinking, "this reads like GPT gobbledygook, but with worse grammar." But realized this was anachronistic. GPT reads like this nonsense because it was trained on this kind of nonsense. Garbage in, garbage out.

Maybe I should go get a fake degree. All I'd have to do is pay some money, bullshit my way through a few writing assignments.... No, who am I kidding. I'd study and try to make a meaningful contribution, like a sucker.

I watched the first video with the sound off and I thought Governor Hairgel looked like he was performing a magic trick with a deck of cards.

It is hilarious, even if hideous. And taken seriously by those is power.

I mean that shit's funny!

All of us laughing and pointing will be noticed.

When the CA legislature has completed its great work to provide unfettered access to "Timmy's First BJ", I wonder what the availability of an unedited copy of, say, "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" will be? Asking for my Grand Wizard neighbor.

The only people I ever refer to with the word ‘doctor’ are those with a stethoscope around their necks - and then only when they’re about to perform a procedure on me that could be especially unpleasant …

I'm so. Tired.
