Fire the school administrators. Every fucking one of them.
A drag queen straddled a girl during a racy performance at a North
Carolina community college — prompting the school to potentially “revise”
its rules surrounding underage shows, according to officials.

A viral video shows the drag queen busting a lap dance-like move on the
apparent teenager at Forsyth Technical Community College’s Pride Fest,
which students as young as 14 were invited to attend, according to FOX
News.

The busty dancer then briefly wraps her legs around the student as the
girl sits in a chair at an on-campus restaurant, where the drag show was
held, according to footage posted by the conservative social media account
@libsoftiktok.

After doing a stripper-style dance, the drag queen then gives the student
a hug as onlookers cheer, according to the footage, which sparked outrage
among some right-wing circles online.

“Parents of children under 18 were not notified of this event in advance,”
Paula Dibley, the school’s chief officer of student success, told FOX.

The student’s name and age were not immediately clear.

Dibley said the school, in Winston-Salem, is now considering “revise[ing]
campus policies” regarding events that are open to underage students.

“We have been in close contact with our early college school leadership
and are talking with both leaders and parents about how we can revise
campus policies and procedures regarding early and middle college
students’ attendance at campus events,” she said.

“All events on campus are entirely voluntary,” Dibley said.

All students were invited to the “drag performance,” hosted by the
student-led Pride Club, for “free food, drinks, music & activities,”
according to fliers for the event.

Students as young as 14 and older than 65 years old attend the public
community college.

Drag performance has been thrust into the political spotlight in recent
months as right-wing activists and politicians complain about the alleged
“sexualization” and “gay grooming” of teens — while much LGBTQ community
contends it’s artistic expression and a harmless celebration of diversity.

At the pride event, the Forsyth Public Health Department set up a free HIV
and sexually transmitted disease testing station — but the director of the
agency later disavowed the risqué nature of the drag performance.

“Our staff is committed to meeting the people we serve where they are. We
believe we assign an appropriate amount of attention on the
[LGBTQ]community around education and prevention of sexually transmitted
infections,” Forsyth Public Health Director Joshua Swift told FOX News.

“Our staff was aware that there would be drag performances but was not
involved with planning the event and had no information regarding the age
of the attendees,” he said. “We do not condone the actions that allegedly
took place during the event.”

Biden is a piece of shit.
If you undertake a burden voluntarily, you have an obligation as a moral
person to fulfill it.

The highest court in our country heard oral arguments last week on
President Joe Biden’s multibillion-dollar initiative that would erase
student loans, and many are surprised what side of the argument I, a 22-
year-old recent college graduate, fall on: I hope the Supreme Court rules
against the administration’s student debt relief plan.

I rejected the plan from the beginning. Four years ago, I made the same
choice millions of young Americans do upon leaving high school — I
enrolled at a university to invest in my passions, my future, and myself.
Along with that investment came student loans I’m required to pay. Many of
my peers were elated by the original announcement that Biden will forgive
up to $20,000 of their student loan debt. But I will gladly pay back my
student loans independently.

The proposed initiative brings me confusion rather than elation. How much
will this cost, and who should be responsible for footing the bill? The
National Taxpayer Union projects that this initiative will cost more than
$330 billion over the next 10 years. If you break it down, that’s $2,500
per taxpayer — $2,500 that someone can no longer invest into their own
dream because they now must cover the cost of someone else’s.

Defying Our Values
Beyond the economic and financial implications, the true consequences of
Biden’s plan are fundamentally moral in nature. This plan goes against the
beliefs of our founders and the great thinkers before them who helped
create this republic. Our nation was constructed on the premises of
liberty and responsibility — in particular, duty.

Duty is a critical aspect of society; without it, society doesn’t exist.
Natural law philosopher Hugo Grotius, a major influence on John Locke,
said our rights as human beings are established upon our understanding of
our duties toward each other. He highlighted several duties in his
examples, one of them being to respect your debts; if you have debts, you
simply pay them. Society was formed on this sense of obligation among its
members — to respect the property, integrity, and character of each other,
and to behave accordingly.

This is not some abstract, esoteric theory. You don’t have to be a
philosopher to understand that if you undertake a burden willingly and
voluntarily, you have an obligation as a moral person to fulfill it. When
I took on student loan debt, I did so with complete knowledge of my
responsibility to repay that burden. If I completely and utterly omit my
duty and presume that someone else will carry it out for me, that would
show an utter lack of character.

Destroying Society
Yet Biden has advocated the biggest, most flagrant abandonment of duty.
Millions of students have now been told that the sacred bond you have with
your fellow citizen doesn’t matter. They are led to believe a major
building block of a moral society is not that important.

Such is the true cost of the Biden loan forgiveness plan: the loss of duty
to oneself and to fellow citizens. When a civilization forgets its
foundations of morality, it heads down a destructive path. The money lost
as a result of these misguided policies can be recovered; the societal
expense of violating sacred American principles cannot.

That’s why regardless of the Supreme Court’s ultimate decision in this
case, I intend to respect my obligation as a loan holder and, in the
spirit of America’s constitutional ethos, recognize my duty for what it
is, rather than burden someone else because it’s convenient for me. In the
words of President Theodore Roosevelt, “The things that will destroy
America are prosperity at any price … safety first instead of duty first,
and love of soft living and the get-rich-quick theory of life.”

I hope many more members of my generation will eventually agree with
President Roosevelt rather than President Biden and join those of us
rejecting this immoral loan cancellation plan.

Sure. That's the crap the rich feed you to make yourself a victim.
Meanwhile the rich are happy to do bankrupt to cancel obligations.
Henry Ford, Tiny Don, many other rich.
