According to the bill, parents may take legal action against their child’s school district and be awarded damages if they believe any of its policies infringe on their “fundamental right to make decisions regarding the upbringing and control of their children.”
I had to listen to anti-sjw pimples whine about free speech on the internet for years, only for this shit to happen? Is there any joke that God can tell that isn't at our expense?

You see, this is not limiting free speech. This is simply reasonable policy shutting down sjw propaganda. Now I have nothing against lgbt rights, but what they are trying to do is lgbt supremacy and its alright with what they do, as long as they dont do it in front of children. Didnt you know that childrens minds are still forming and they will be influenced . :debate-me-debate-me:

In reality, it's the left's responsibly to be pro free speech, because it's leftist speech that's actually threatened by the state. We have to retake that ground.
"Pro-Free Speech" was always a liberal wedge issue intended to silence critics and demonize foreigners.
The speech that gets defended is inevitably the most reactionary horseshit (re: ACLU defending the KKK). Media consolidation and private-sector censorship never seem to clock as free speech issues, outside of the right-wing "Why won't the grandkids like my Facebook posts?" hysteria. The assailants on free speech are always Woke Leftists at home and Evil Communists abroad.
Leftists are better off simply embracing the ideas of media piracy and guerrilla production/distribution as means of achieving "free speech". Trying to argue some legalist framing just traps you in an inherently bourgeoisie judicial system.
You don't need to a legalist, constitutionalist approach. That's a right wing framing. We can frame free speech as left wing and talk about exactly those issues.
This just isn't true at all. It was a foundation of the American left in the middle of the century.
You're completely and uncritically accepting the hypocritical "free speech advocacy" of right wing extremists. We don't need to do that. I mean, the post we're commenting on is a great example of why we need to take this ground back.
Anti-war advocacy was a foundation of the American left in the middle of the century. But any free speech arguments were incidental byproduct of blacklisting/censorship leftists faced when opposing US propaganda.
To quote Gore Vidal: "For the average American freedom of speech is simply the freedom to repeat what everyone else is saying and no more."
