The Wake County school board in North Carolina hired a male teacher who says he’s a transgender nonbinary and demands to be called ‘Ms’ by students and shows up in dresses and skirts. Some speakers appeared at the school board meeting to demand the Wake County school board provide alternatives to elementary school parents who don’t want their children educated by a transgender teacher.
The board responded by telling the parents if they don’t like the school hiring transgender teachers than then they could pull their kids out and homeschool them.
“Here’s what our detractors are telling us by the way. You don’t support school hiring a trans teacher? Maybe public school isn’t for you or your family. Maybe homeschool. Maybe private school. That’s right. Maybe pay taxes into the school system and then pay again to escape from it.”
A cheaper option would be for parents to ban together and elect themselves a new school board. Failing that, tar, feathers, and rope my be an option.

I do not know enough four-letter words to adequately describe this, or other things going on in North Carolina.

This dynamic is playing out all over. In my AO, school vouchers passed. So enrollment is WAAAY down in public schools, necessitating closing some facilities, shifting teachers, etc. OF COURSE the bints in the bluehive bitch and wail and moan how republicans are STEALING their money by using the vouchers to send their kids to private schools. Test scores have fallen dramatically as well. All the smart-kids are getting out of public schools.
The people here see it for what it is, know the gnashing of democrat’s teeth is performative, their arguments hold no water. I think this is the better route, as it accomplishes the desired goal of my child’s education, at the same time as revealing the failures of the democrat’s model. Demonstrating and proving that failure is an important component to ridding us of the whole notion. Don’t just beat them, crush them.
