You go talk to kindergartners or 1st-grade kids,
you find a class full of science enthusiasts. They
ask deep questions. They ask, "What is a dream, why do we have toes, why is the moon round, what is the birthday of the world, why is grass green?" These are profound, important questions. They just bubble right out of them.
You go talk to 12th graders & there's none of
that. They've become incurious. Something terrible has happened between kindergarten and 12th grade.
And to drive home that point, the Founders included the Establishment Clause in the First Amendment -- to ensure that no religion could be legally mandated, federally or in any state.
@SamuelBepis @freemo @Darkayne FWIW, I've been on QOTO a month now and haven't seen any race science or bigotry. The few moderation decisions I've seen have been thoughtful and nuanced.
@freemo isn't always the best at clearly communicating his intentions, but from everything I've seen so far, his heart appears to be in the right place.
As a member of the LGBTQ community, I never felt anything less than welcomed on QOTO. And, if I had to describe the tone of my Local feed here, it's mostly STEM-related material, but of the few political-or-politics-adjacent posts I see, the vast majority seem to be left-leaning.
I don't know where this dramatic characterization of QOTO being a hive of right-wing disinfo and bigotry comes from, but it really doesn't seem to have any basis in reality.
@therobburgessshow It’s so different here and by that I mean more interesting, more diverse content, and more kindness.
West Virginia state Senator Randy Smith (R) is proposing legislation to offer sterilization for reduced drug-crime sentencing
So republicans have shown us they’re:
• Anti U.S. constitution
• Anti freedom to marry
• Anti voting
• Pro prison-slavery-industrial-complex
• Pro Russia
• Pro eugenics
But it’s somehow on rational people to “come together” with *this?!*
What happens if #Elmo starts to do #TwitterLeaks of people’s DMs?
What happens when he realizes he can #blackmail almost every western elite in the world? No need for hacking. Or anything illegal. He bought the data and AFAIK, he can do anything he wants with it. 😬
@museum Some 232,000 children up to the age of 18 (216,000 Jews, 11,000 Roma, at least 3,000 Poles, over 1,000 Belarusians & some Russians, Ukrainians & others) were deported to the camp.
Listen about their fate. https://anchor.fm/auschwitz-memorial/episodes/On-Auschwitz-8-Children-at-Auschwitz-e16t4gh

Those eager to attack Biden for making a tough decision & securing Brittney Griner's release are negligent in their hot takes. They're playing into Putin's hand & feeding the Russian propaganda machine against Americans, which ultimately also works against Paul Whelan's release.

Over 8,000 shoes that belonged to the youngest victims of Auschwitz need conservation.
Every person can support the preservation of those moving objects that testify about the tragic history of the camp. Help us save them for the future.

Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
