Fox News tells us that the new law has, quote:
won praise from LGBTQ+ advocacy groups who say the ban will help protect transgender and gender-nonconforming students who live in unwelcoming households.
Totalitarians have always understood that family affections and loyalties are their enemy. Fourteen-year-old peasant boy Pavlik Morozov was a heroic martyr of the early USSR for having supposedly been murdered by angry relatives after he’d denounced his father to the secret police. In Mao Tse-tung’s China children were told they should love Chairman Mao more than they loved their parents.
I assume that children in present-day North Korea are given similar instructions — a bit paradoxically, since their country has been ruled by three successive generations of the Kim family.
The viewpoint of our own American totalitarians was expressed very clearly by MSNBC hostess Melissa Harris Perry back in 2016:
[Clip: We’ve always had kind of a private notion of children. Your kid is yours, and totally your responsibility. We haven’t had a very collective notion of: “These are our children.”So part of it is, we have to break through our kind of private idea that kids belong to their parents or kids belong to their families and recognize that kids belong to whole communities.
Once it’s everybody’s responsibility and not just the household’s, then we start making better investments.]
