The rise of this new, female group fits into a pattern of post-Jan. 6 domestic extremism.
Mom groups tend to get a lot less support when they quote Hitler and then cough over a moment of silence for Holocaust victims after being called out for it.
Hitler should not be supported. So ignorant.
This world would be a better place if more people had supported Hitler from his neck.
I was just about to reply that perhaps they didn’t quite realize it was a Hitler quote, then the Vice article showed a picture of the quote in print with it clearly attributing Hitler. Yep, go on ahead and get fucked.
Oh wonderful, just what we need more of, parents who use their children as shields as a defense for their own bigotry
Great…just great. I’m sure the kids won’t grow up to resent them or anything…
It’s gotta be so tiring being so hateful
I think motherhood is just their excuse for the ability to express their underlying bigotry
It seems that way.
How much do you want to bet that their kids absolutely despise them
PTA meetings and those who have been running the “municipal” education systems have been receiving and injecting federal propaganda into local communities for well over 20 years now, so this just seems like the equal opposite reaction to the educational system being corrupt for decades.
Oh, bullshit. 🙄 Stop letting people manipulate you into believing things that aren’t true. You’re being the perfect tool for the people who are trying to undermine education in this country by spreading their lies and propaganda. Is that who you want to be? A gullible tool?
I prefer the term “useful idiot”
What a wild journey the term “useful idiot” has taken. In 1959, Congressman Ed Derwinski of Illinois entered an editorial by the Chicago Daily Calumet into the Congressional record, referring to Americans who traveled to the Soviet Union to promote peace as “what Lenin calls useful idiots in the Communist game”. In 1961, American journalist Frank Gibney wrote that Lenin had coined the phrase useful idiot. Gibney wrote that the phrase was a good description of “Communist follower[s]” from Jean-Paul Sartre to left-wing socialists in Japan to members of the Chilean Popular Front. In a speech in 1965, American diplomat Spruille Braden said the term was used by Joseph Stalin to refer to what Braden called “countless innocent although well-intentioned sentimentalists or idealists” who aided the Soviet agenda.
Writing in The New York Times in 1987, William Safire discussed the increasing use of the term useful idiot against “anybody insufficiently anti-Communist in the view of the phrase’s user”, including Congressmen who supported the anti-Contras Sandinistas in Nicaragua and the Dutch socialists. After President Ronald Reagan concluded negotiations with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev over the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, conservative political leader Howard Phillips declared Reagan a “useful idiot for Soviet propaganda.”
The Economist published a 2023 article titled “Vladimir Putin’s useful idiots”; it describes “Useful Idiot narratives” that support Putin’s aims and denigrate his perceived enemies.
It was entirely intentional, and funny piece of history you leave out that this phrase was in fact, NOT coined by Lenin and it was in fact, coined by US intelligence to describe how operation mockingbird could be used to create useful idiots to serve intelligence purposes.

Please give some examples.
You haven’t seen any of the project veritas clips?
Project Veritas? Are you shitting us right now?
Who are you referring to as “us”? It does seem like this is an astroturf post that would be a natural echo chamber on reddit.
I’m referring to all people participating here who you think will be convinced by anything Project Veritas has to say. Sadly for you, no one participating appears to be convinced.
Is it not proof of people injecting propaganda into education?
If Project Veritas showed “proof” water was wet, I’d get two other opinions.
Uh, okay buddy. Great job adding nothing new.
If video surveillance of educators and administrators admitting to injecting propaganda into their curricula is not “proof” then you surely would look for a second opinion to confirm your bias : you absolute dullard.
Video from the group that constantly deceptively edits video? Yeah, again, are you shitting us?
