The Dark Place

 "What I'm saying is that Queer Theory promotes pedophilia--Queer Theory itself." -- Derrick Jensen

The last two presidents of the American Library Association, Emily Drabinski and current President Cindy Hohl, epitomize the problems in our libraries today. Drabinski, self-described as Queer and Marxist, has written and spoken numerous times about the need to "queer" the library catalog, about socialist organizing in libraries, and about the ALA's opposition to restricting access to books/materials based on age (meaning minors.)

Watch author Derrick Jensen (who is by no means conservative) discuss the link between Queer Theory and pedophilia in the video below. The discussion begins at the 1:50:00 mark and continues for about 15 minutes. Ironically, his talk was held at the Eugene Public Library.

Here are some books described as Queer in the Christian County Library:

1. Queer ducks (and other animals) : the natural world of animal sexuality
2. Queen's English (Young Readers' adaptation)
3. Ash's Cabin
4. Icarus
5. Other Ever Afters: New Queer Fairy Tales
6. Love that story : observations from a gorgeously queer life
7. Gender Queer
8. Real queer America : LGBT stories from red states
9. Queer : the ultimate LGBT guide for teens
10. The New Queer Conscience
11. The Queer Bible: Essays
12. Queer and fearless

MORE ON THE ALA CONNECTION

Current Ala President Cindy Hohl, who is a member of the Santee Sioux Nation, is also like-minded when it comes to providing "all access" to every individual: "There has never been a better time to serve our communities within the roles of librarianship and we stand united in our mission to ensure equal access to information for all,” said Hohl.

Hohl is also committed to providing a "...comprehensive library guide [to] focus on diversity, equity, inclusion, social justice, and antiracism practices in libraries highlighting welcoming spaces, belonging for all and sustainability for future generations of library staff and users."

Under Hohl's leadership (she worked in marketing before becoming a librarian), the ALA is currently embarking on a public relations campaign to boost its image and gain support. The campaign is focusing on the following:

"Contributions will help advance key ALA initiatives including:

• Library funding: The ALA advocates for funding in the halls of Congress and state and local governments.
• Library grants: The ALA provides grant opportunities to small and rural libraries.
• Right to read: The ALA champions everyone’s right to read, without censorship.
• Internet for all: The ALA advocates for broadband funding."

 Note the emphasis on "everyone's right to read, without censorship."

This is a fake issue. There is not a problem with First Amendment rights in libraries.

The problem with the ALA is that it purposely conflates free speech rights of adult citizens with access restrictions on minor children and the rights of parents to curate the materials their children are exposed to. There are NO ADULTS who are denied access to whatever books/materials they want to have access to in the library.

The extremists at the ALA and their cohorts in libraries all across the nation are scamming citizens in order to provide children with age-inappropriate materials. To be specific, they are the pushers of transgender ideology, along with their comrades in the publishing industry.

These books seek to normalize the idea that one can change one's sex, and many are specifically geared toward young children. The deeper one looks into the motives behind this dark movement, the more frightening it gets. Here are some of the motives that have made gender ideology so prominent:

1) To promote "Queerness," which is a tactic used to overturn anything that has traditionally been understood as normal, i.e., heterosexuality, nuclear family, etc. It's the QT+ in the LGBTQ+ acronym.

2) To benefit the medical-industrial complex with on-going, lifetime procedures, medicines, and mental health care. 

3) To move humanity toward transhumanism by destroying biological truth/reality and then normalizing technological "enhancements" that ultimately intends to move society to a new form of humanity.

And,

4)  To satisfy the sexual depravity of mentally ill individuals.

That last point...

"Transgenderism is directly connected to pedophilia, and the use of "puberty blockers" on children - drugs designed to chemically castrate sex offenders - is such an obvious example that it should be the only one needed." -- Genevieve Gluck

Journalist Genevieve Gluck has written extensively on the links between pornography, transgender ideology and pedophilia. She has plumbed the depths of how pornography, hand-in-hand with transgender ideology has pushed the limits of sexual behavior to the point that irrevocably affecting the puberty of children through puberty-blockers and cross-sex hormones, is considered a sexually desirable outcome.

The physical effects of puberty-blockers and cross-sex hormones prevents the normal adult development of genitalia, in effect permanently keeping sexual organs in a pre- or pubescent stage. Gluck illustrates the trans/pedophile link HERE (warning: graphic and disturbing).

To listen to a podcast on this subject go HERE. Gluck writes more about the connection HERE. The website Reduxx reports what the mainstream media will not.

I've spent the past five years of my life peeping down a rabbit hole of horrors related to porn, sadomasochism, and transgenderism, and observing the links.

I've written hundreds of articles based on court documents depicting the actions of pedophiles and sex offenders.

I've…

Is it too much to ask our taxpayer-funded libraries and schools to restrict access to minors of the books and materials and websites that push this darkness? If you follow the links above, you will find yourself in a very Dark Place, where adults admit to finding porn at the age of 10 or 11, and who could not tear themselves away. The darkness engulfs them until they end up like the fellow pictured above (or worse).

And then ask yourself what kind of organizations and people would advocate for a child's "right to read"  books pushing transgender ideology? The ALA and its chapter in Missouri (the MLA) do advocate for having all materials accessible to children.

The next meeting of the Christian County Library Board of Trustees is Feb. 25, 2025 at 6 p.m. at the Nixa library branch. Let's join together to make our library a place of light for children, and not of darkness.
