✋🏫 DID YOU RECITE A PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE WHEN YOU WERE AT SCHOOL?

Or something similar, like an oath to the country or sing the National anthem.
And I mean regularly, like daily or weekly, not on special occasions like once a year.

What do you think of the concept? Can you tell in the replies in which country you had school?

I'm curious. 🤔

What the FUCK is this ruling? https://www.vox.com/politics/481401/supreme-court-mirabelli-bonta-sauron-wins So #educators are now experts in what every religion may deem unacceptable…but really only “gay” stuff matters. But let’s imagine this was enforceable and they cared about anything but the genitalia of children: what if my child is being bullied into saying the #pledgeofallegiance ? Learning about #georgewashington ? I want teachers to be aware that my religion prohibits this kind of idolatry!!! #supremecourt #uspol

The Supreme Court’s Republicans just seized the most dangerous power in constitutional law

The Court’s latest ruling invokes a power that corrupts every court that wields it.

Makes me want to rewrite the pledge:

"I pledge allegiance to the Constitution of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stood, one nation, without Kings, with liberty, due process, and justice for all"

"Livingston [a teacher] began yelling and demanded that Barnwell stop to acknowledge the pledge, then physically assaulted her by pushing her on a wall, according to the lawsuit."

There is such a thing as toxic patriotism. Too many view flags and pledges with a religious fervor that leads violence reactions like this. They are incapable of comprehending the meanings of our Declaration of Independence and Constitution - seeing them as weapons to wield rather than principles to follow.
