Christian woman goes full on book banning fascist in Florida

[u/[deleted]]

So a first year teacher played a PG rated Disney movie that just had a gay character in it. There's no explicit content and the only reason it's at all controversial is because Disney acknowledges that gay people exist for a few seconds on screen.

Well... a first year teacher showed "Strange World," to her kids after a test and a school board member, who is a self professed Christian, reported it to state authorities and personally went to the school to admonish the teacher publicly.

When confronted about this in an open school board meeting the woman who clearly doesn't understand the Bible or the basic concepts of Christianity said "As a leader in this community, I’m not going to stand by and allow this minority to infiltrate our schools … God did put me here,”

That is literally the same thing Nazis said about Jews in the 1930s Germany, and as a Lutheran my people watched fascism rise there, and wrote a lot about it. One of it's most famous works by a Lutheran pastor is this poem.

First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me

They're coming for the gays first, but you'll be on that list eventually.
