1..Just because you say drag requires skill, it doesn’t. We can have better queer role models though because trans people are not costumed performers, so it’s even a little bit insulting to trans identity to say “we want kids to learn about trans people, so here’s someone in a costume”.

I like drag queens, I just don’t appreciate drag story hour because of the quote you shared. If I have a choice for what type of person a kid should get reading from, I’d choose a different person. Or someone who has an another profession and is also a drag queen, that’s fine tbh bc I don’t hate drag queens!! But yeah your psychic ability can see through my heart and what I am saying is a lie obviously. Why? For all the love I am getting for saying this? What a narcissistic pov

Moreover! Why am I so fixated on skills? Hint not bc a tech bro, but instead worried that progressive kids end up being fodder for assholes. I’ve seen that too much, and it’s the reason why you have assholes who can deny college kids a job because of wrong think.

Progressives need to think about strong futures, and all of that comes from hard skills in the current state of the world. Reading hour is a small part of any kids life, and it’s not going to be end all, be all.

But the kind of thinking that justifies reading hour by drag queens is the problem. That’s an innate problem of leftist circles, and why progressive polices end up being ridiculed and voted out. Do things that make you stronger than your ideological enemies.

2.. Reading hour teaches a lot of things, including being goal oriented or aspiring to things

3..No lol

Edit I remember now why I hate social media, gonna do myself a favor and peace out
