WTF: DON'T SAY HARVEY MILK?
In a shocking turn of events, the Temecula school district is currently being investigated by the California Department of Education. Why, you may ask? Well, it seems that the school board made the grave mistake of blocking a curriculum that mentioned the iconic gay rights leader, Harvey Milk.
Now, I know what you're thinking. "Why would they do such a thing?" And honestly, I wish I had an answer for you. Maybe they were afraid that talking about Milk would turn all the students gay? Or perhaps they were just really big fans of censorship? Whatever the reason may be, it's safe to say that their decision has come back to bite them in the behind.
The investigation is still ongoing, but I have a feeling that it's not going to end well for the school board. I mean, when you actively try to suppress important historical figures like Harvey Milk, you're basically asking for trouble. It's like trying to hide a piece of broccoli in your mashed potatoes - eventually, someone is going to find it and call you out on your nonsense.
But let's not dwell on the negative. Instead, let's take a moment to appreciate just how ridiculous this whole situation is. I mean, we're living in 2021 and there are still people out there who think that talking about gay rights is somehow controversial. It's like they're stuck in a time warp where it's still okay to discriminate against people based on their sexual orientation.
And yet, despite all of their efforts to silence Harvey Milk and erase his legacy, he still remains an important figure in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights. His message of love and acceptance continues to inspire people around the world, and no amount of censorship can change that.
So, to the Temecula school board, I have this to say: good luck with your investigation. You may have thought that blocking a curriculum about Harvey Milk was a smart move, but it turns out that it was just plain silly. Maybe next time, you'll think twice before trying to suppress important historical figures. Or, you know, you could just embrace diversity and inclusivity like the rest of us. It's up to you.
