It's not about the freedom to read--it's about forced indoctrination

BREAKING: The Rutherford County Library in Tennessee voted 8-3 in favor of FIRING library director Luanne James after she refused to move over 100 books, including LGBTQ and DEI books, from the children's section to the adult section.

 It's worthwhile watching the video with the sound off at first. The reactions of those who are advocating for sexually explicit and age-inappropriate books are angry, loud and well-organized in their purple shirts.

This is not about the First Amendment or the so-called "freedom to read" or the fake "Library Bill of Rights," or censorship or banning books.

It's about indoctrinating children. Note that the books are still available in the adult section for those parents who are desirous of exposing their children to certain books. The opposition does not care that the books are still available in the library. They WANT ALL CHILDREN TO BE EXPOSED TO THOSE BOOKS. They want to force your children and grandchildren to be exposed to them, regardless of content, age appropriateness, and social indoctrination.

If this was not a very important battle, the Marxists and social justice warriors would not fight so hard.

The Democrat Party, both nationally and regionally, is going to have to exorcise its communist wing. As David Rice notes in his article "Democrat Inevitability or Democrat Failure to Thrive," the party was soundly defeated in 2024.

Americans rejected the messaging and behavior of the Left. It is no longer acceptable to indoctrinate children with transgender ideology or let males compete in females sports and invade their spaces. It is no longer acceptable to promote anti-white policies under the guise of anti-racist theories. Americans have soundly rejected endless wars and ever-increasing taxation.

Rice was able to obtain information from a Missouri Democrat strategy session. The Democrats in Missouri plan to work from the bottom up, with rural municipalities a focus of their incursion. Part of their strategy is municipal-level investment, strategic county targeting, candidate recruitment, and a data-driven approach.

From the article: "The 'Plan to Take Over Rural Missouri' document and the implementation observed in Osage County, Greene County, and elsewhere suggests Democrats are pursuing the second option—establishing progressive infrastructure in rural areas despite, rather than because of, their policy positions' appeal to residents."

There is a recording, lots of screenshots and so on. Incidentally, Facebook rejected the article as "spam." Censorship is still a big thing over there. Ask us how we know. :-)

It's always good to know what the opposition is planning. Forewarned is forearmed. You can read the whole thing HERE. Some local individuals are briefly referenced.
