joat mon posted:"Teen life principles" are unrelated value I went to a school named after a saint, located right next to a church where many of the faculty and kids attended, and they still managed to keep all of that to the half hour religious studies class and not let it gently caress about with chemistry or history or math. I guess that's the difference between 'school which happens to be Christian' and 'Christian Education'. Ugh.

I went to a literal private Christian school as a kid, chorus and chapel every day, and even they didn't do this. I only went there through 4th grade, but I was not taught to blindly trust authority figures. We had the same material that secular schools had only we went through it, on average, a year earlier. This ACE stuff is an abomination.

Maybe keep this stuff in the appropriate thread. While horrifying, I don't see what this particular hobby horse has to do with LGBT issues beyond just being more ultra-right wing garbage.

Fair enough, I'll keep my material out of this thread going forewards. Edit: I offer my heartfelt apologies for any undue interruption of this thread I may have caused. I am not attempting to be sarcastic or troll here, I am being up front and honest. It is apparent that my participation in this instance here has brought an unwelcome derailment of this thread and for that I do genuinely apologize and will take pains to avoid repeating this particular error in the future.

Don't sweat it, PJ. I don't really understand your compaction theory stuff, but I think your perspective is really interesting, it should just go on in more relevant threads.Glazier posted:This is what I'm afraid of here with a President Pence, no country with an official religion will ever be safe for us. Not saying we're amazing or anything, but Denmark has a state church and we rank as one of the best places in the world to be gay, and I'd say it's true - at least in major cities( though I guess it's like that everywhere).

It's not a perfect fit, but if you wanted to have a more extended/serious discussion about ACE again I'm sure most people in TGRS would be OK with a thread there as long as it was clear how it tied into suppressing minority identities and such. And we all know you didn't mean any harm

7th Circuit court panel unanimously rules to uphold injunction against Wisconsin school's Anti-Trans bathroom policy. They actually went further and stated that bathroom bills likely violate not only Title IX, but the 14th Amendment as well.

Pittsburgh's head of the Fraternal Order of Police is frightened that 30 squad cars with small logos in support of PRIDE will lead to law enforcement officers being targeted and attacked by radicalized groups. http://www.wtae.com/article/controversy-brewing-within-pittsburgh-police-department-over-pride-decals-for-c/9970451 Pittsburgh police have had incidents of patrol officers being pictured proudly displaying their white nationalist tattoos in the past, as well as their union becoming very pissed off that their chief of police finally publicly acknowledged their institutional racism in a very weak way. Their chief of police's terrible crime toward the police union? quote:He explained that during the parade, he stopped at a coffee shop, where he encountered a group of activists and spoke with them “about how implicit, or unconscious bias results in misunderstanding on all sides, and how the need is for dialogue to clear up misunderstanding,” the report says. The current chief also isn't happy with the union's current bigotry either, though. quote:"It's very disheartening to hear the FOP went to the media about their displeasure in supporting Pride and other events that help build stronger partnerships with the community we are entrusted to serve and protect. It's extremely disappointing that the FOP would attempt to strain relations with the community when the PBP is doing everything in our power to improve those relationships. The FOP is sending a message that has the potential to do reprehensible harm to progress we've made to ensure there is inclusion with all members of the community." This is not a PRIDE specific program. There are small squad car logos for breast cancer, the special olympics, and many other causes and upcoming events in the city. The police union only took issue with PRIDE, because they are filled to the brim with bigots.

BigRed0427 posted:SO is a gun company sponsoring DC PRide or something? Pride parades are becoming increasingly more corporate in order to fund them. A lot of companies are doing pride floats to show they support LGBTQ workers because it's no longer financially viable to be bigoted against them, so they show token support instead. Yay capitalism.

Like I said over in fabgoons, megacorps love pretending that they love The Gays™ so long as it makes them one fraction of a red cent more than making GBS threads on us. The moment it doesn't, then we're expendable to them. gently caress corporation floats in pride parades, gently caress allowing cops to attend in uniform, gently caress allowing politicians to campaign there unless their record on gay rights is SPOTLESS, and gently caress any straight tourist that isn't respectful.

While I agree with your other points, I'm not aware that cops can work security out of uniform. I've never heard of it at least, but I'm willing to admit I'm wrong.

Yes, because hating and excluding LGBTQ people that choose the profession today is cool for the crimes commited by their (probably cis het) predecessors. Am I reading that right? Don't personally care to much about the topic at hand but it always reads funny to me whenever it comes up.

Cirvot posted:Yes, because hating and excluding LGBTQ people that choose the profession today is cool for the crimes commited by their (probably cis het) predecessors. Taking up the uniform is entirely a choice and parading in uniform is itself a political decision that forces pride to tacitly endorse the institutions they represent. Even if they might be good people individually the institution they represent is still on the whole bad.

That's not it at all, of course the people are allowed, it's the symbol of their job that isn't due to the prior and continued negative events. A.k.a the police the organization should gently caress off the people who work as police can show as much support as they want (without the loaded symbols)
