The Libs are coming for your parental rights.

This viral clip, care of our friends at Libs of Tiktok.

Let's talk about parental rights for a second because it's become evident that it's being

used currently in the fight against queer people, and especially queer kids who need more

protections than ever before.

Like in Saskatchewan and in the US, parental rights are being used to thwart any rights of

autonomy that the kid might have, and I'm sorry, but kids do have autonomy.

We've already established this.

For example, if a kid needs a blood transfusion and the parents don't want to, it's not the

parents' rights to refuse that blood transfusion for that kid because it is life-saving.

In the same respect, if a kid only needs to use a different name and pronoun in school,

they might be a reason and a good reason they're not coming out at home, and they need

a safe place to be themselves.

And so to hell with this idea of parental rights, when it comes to kids who have their own

consent in their own bodily autonomy and their own autonomy to their personhood that need

to be protected.

To hell with this idea of parental rights, Libs 2024, to hell with parental rights.

Now you might say, who cares?

This is just some random weirdo, and that's true, but we see the same belief articulated

by more prominent, less random weirdos.

Here is AOC's take on the GOP's Parents Bill of Rights proposal.

They are asking the Republican Party to keep culture wars out of classrooms.
