Santa Claus is banned. The Pledge of Allegiance is no longer recited. “Harvest festival” has replaced Thanksgiving, and “winter celebrations” substitute for Christmas parties.
New principal Eujin Jaela Kim has given PS 169 in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, a politically correct scrub-down, to the dismay of teachers and parents.“We definitely can’t say Christmas, nothing with Christmas on it, nothing with Santa,” PTA president Mimi Ferrer said administrators told her. “No angels. We can’t even have a star because it can represent a religious system, like the Star of David.”
"In a recent directive to all schools, the city Department of Education said it permits holiday symbols including Christmas trees, kinaras (candleholders for Kwanzaa), dreidels, Hanukkah menorahs and the Islamic star-and-crescent. Displays that “depict images of deities, religious figures or religious texts” are prohibited.In a memo to staff this month, PS 169 business manager Johanna Bjorken added: “In case you are wondering about grey areas: Santa Claus is considered an ‘other religious figure.’ ”
There, just copied and pasted an article. I really don't want to sit here and debate the madness...like it doesn't exist. We all know exactly the junk I'm talking about.
Here's whats going on at Princeton right now:
""The relatively new policy in effect at the Ivy League institution spells out the directive in a four-page memo that aims to make the department more gender inclusive. Instead of using “man,” employees are told to use words such as human beings, individuals or people.""
That crap just makes me laugh....if it wasn't poured over us with that condescending, authoritative, parental tone.
Both sides.....you just take the sh** too far. Over and over..you push and push. You don't care whether people want what your selling or not. You just want what you want. And then sit there mouth agape, STUNNED when it turns out other people don't think exactly like you!
And then point the finger at the other side. Your both the same irritating rash on this country.
