About once every two weeks, like clockwork, Hinderaker takes off on a screed, decrying what he sees as the public schools telling parents how to raise their children — and what to teach them. This he feels is the greatest threat we face, as a nation, to our future. [Not climate collapse, of course.]
He waxes almost poetic (almost!) about how the Founders would never have stood for such a public education system. [One that taught most of what whyte Americans have… they actually… stole. Either directly — or through ancestors, here.]
And so… he screams that PARENTS should (alone!) decide what to teach their children — even as to matters of unassailable biological science. Preserve the liberty rights of parents, at every turn, he intones. Their children belong to them (as any chattel would, he thinks), to raise as they alone see fit.
So — if it were not such a serious matter, and a glaringly HATEFUL and dishonest anti-trans position he increasingly feels compelled to voice — I might laugh at his latest, of tonight. I might.
But I cannot, as he says openly he wants retribution, retribution against (wait for it!) parents… who, with their children and their health care providers (and their psychologists, presumably)… decided to allow a child under age 18 to move (in most cases, non-surgically) toward the gender with which they feel most closely aligned (regardless of at-birth morphology). [Usually in a completely-reversible fashion, if the child is not yet 18 or older.]
W H A T ? !
So — in any decision a parent and child together, privately, makes (health related) with which he disagrees… the parents should be… punished by force of law. [Let us be clear: as with any surgical procedure, the parents do think deeply before acceding to an underage person’s wishes. They always do. We all know it — as parents, even considering just… a tonsillectomy.]
But if (in John’s insane alternate history US) a parent wants to teach his children that only whyte X-tians are fully human, and all others (yellow, brown, red and black are inferior “mud” animals)… and encourage them to act out on these miscreant beliefs, at a public school or in a church, or at the mall… well, that’s just “muh freedumb“… he would say.
[No punishments at law, even if they end up burning crosses on a neighbors’ lawn — that’s political expression in his deeply-warped world view.]
Hinderaker — as we’ve shown repeatedly — is unable to put together even three consistent sentences on just about any topic that requires 21st Century thinking. But he will write 25 page tomes… on 19th Century ways of raising kids, and mis-treating people he regards as inferior to him, and even on long-discredited economics theories… as though he alone is the smartest guy in every room he enters.
What. A. Loser. And his cry for “accountability”? It is just a wish — his wish — for a lynch mob to assemble, anew.
Out.
