This one needs a little background. Apparently, the school board in Lakeville, Minnesota got sucked into a battle between various parents and school employees about the appropriateness of pushing Black Lives Matter propaganda on students. So back in September they put out a memo banning all political indoctrination.
There is an important discussion happening in the city of Lakeville right now. It began after teachers and staff of the Lakeville School district received a memo saying Black Lives Matter posters are not allowed in their classrooms.
<Snip>
In the memo, the school district highlighted Policy 535, saying that the goal for the district is to "maintain neutrality as to all political campaigns and issues."
More specifically, "employees, while acting in the capacity of a school district employee, shall refrain from any conduct that is intended to be or that reasonably could be perceived as endorsing or opposing specific political issues or political candidates."
<Snip>
The memo also read that the district bans other slogans, like 'All Lives Matter,' 'Blue Lives Matter' or 'Keep America Great.'

Seems reasonable to not be pushing any political agenda on children in school, but unfortunately the problem didn't go away. As a result, the school board had to reiterate their position a few weeks ago, but inexplicably they then put up a bunch of BLM posters in the schools. Which led to this little girl going off on their hypocrisy:

She's a kid. I will refrain from negativity. But she is well on her way to becoming a GOP darling
Fox News probably offered a scholarship and job after graduation.

Of course, the DUmmies act like adults towards a nine year old.

3. I couldn't listen to her BS.
Ignore the message if it doesn't fit my worldview.

5. BLM isn't political.
Nor is it offensive. For ****s sake it is patriotic to recognize that there is a systemic issue and to correct it for… get this… the betterment of the country as a whole!
I am tired of watching nazi youth.
Must be a Nazi, for calling out the adults on their lies.

6. She's an annoying, obnoxious little racist in training.
I blame her parents, but in 10 years she will be an adult and if she doesn't change her views then she will just be one of them and there will be no excuse for her.
I have to say that I have rarely seen such arrogance in someone of that age. She could use a little humility.
And, of course, racist too.

7. The 9-year-old should begin getting her facts straight before speaking
in public. She's headed for embarrassing smackdowns in future junior debates.
The fact is the adults set a policy and then violated it. Oasis should find out what the word facts and debate mean, before opining on the subject.

11. If I was the principal, I would expel her.
And, of course, punish her for having an opinion thats not lockstep with the liberals.

And not be outdone by the DUmmies:
A woman, who said she works at Eastview Elementary, spoke immediately after the girl, praised the work of the board and the teachers before saying "Black Lives Matter" six times in a row. She then quarreled with the nine-year-old girl before repeating "Black Lives Matter" five more times.

The little girl came off as obnoxious and was obviously coached by her parents, but maybe that's what it takes to counter school employees chanting "Black Lives Matter" and picking fights with 9 year old children.

BLM isn't political, but it is meant to draw attention to a systemic issue, and it is patriotic to use it?
It's as if the people on the left don't think about the implications of what they're saying.

A 9YO understanding that labeling people as racists and oppressors or oppressed victim based on their skin color is destructive? She's vastly smarter and wiser than the average Prog! Next thing you know she'll be talking about judging people by the content of their character, as individuals, instead of their skin color. She, and others who think that way, are DANGEROUS!

BLM= Be Livin in Mansions.

No, they don't, at least the moonbats and low information libs don't. The high level proggies occasionally realize the ripple effects, but as long as those effects maintain or don't hurt their level of influence, they don't care.
The left compartmentalizes everything so much they can't fathom one idea or statement causing reactions in other areas of reality.

Yet you worship the ground that Greta Thunberg and David "Camera" Hogg walk on as if they're the reincarnation of Jesus.
