At the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Maureen Downey considers recent Georgia laws hamstringing the teaching of actual factual United States history in Georgia’s schools. A snippet; follow the link for the rest.

It’s not a coincidence that the misinformation campaign that Georgia schools taught critical race theory followed the election of Georgia’s first Black and Jewish American senators, and as Confederate monuments fell across the country.

Mangy comments at the Youtube page:

The other day, Democratic National Committee Chair Jaime Harrison described the present-day Republican party as ” …a party built on fraud, fear and fascism.” Seems pretty accurate. Mangy Fetlocks thought such a catchy, alliterative description should be a campaign slogan for midterm elections, so he wrote a snappy little campaign song with it.

Manure To Manipulate Minions

The Majority Report crew discusses Republicans’ ludicrous claims that Disney, librarians, and liberals are somehow conspiring to “groom” children with nefarious intent.

At Psychology Today Blogs, David J. Ley takes on this issue and finds these claims of “grooming” are–er, shall we say?–less than credible. A snippet (emphasis added); follow the link for a nuanced discussion of what “grooming” is–and isn’t.

The current claims that sex education, Disney movies, or library books with sexual content are grooming fail to meet the clinical and scientific framing of this concept. First, these claims allege a vast conspiracy of collaborating sexual offenders, collectively manipulating social interactions at a macro and micro level to facilitate sexual abuse. While offenders do sometimes act collectively, such a conspiracy is, frankly, ludicrous . . . .

Aside:

Never underestimate Republicans’ tolerance of the ridiculous. After all, they believe that Donald Trump is a competent businessman.
