Moms for Liberty is, as we're told, a far-right group. This must be true because the famously unbiased American press and media are telling us this. Like at theย Daily Dot, headlined,ย โDirty Delete: Moms group weaponizes parental rage to push its far-right agenda.โ
Do you see the way this goes? Parents are upset, and it's the far-right that capitalizes on this? Instead of the more accurate description of Moms for Liberty being the parents who are upset?ย ย
โMoms for Liberty channeled anger about COVID-19 restrictions to become a right-wing political juggernaut,โ according to the article. โThe far-right group was founded in late 2020 by current and former school board members in Florida who were pissed off about masks and vaccines for kids.โ
There's a trick here: Anyone opposing the standard woke and progressive views gets described as โfar-right.โ How could anyone who doesn't subscribe to woke and progressive views be anything other than far-right? In the minds of those progressives, this is definitional. Those who oppose the plans are, by definition, evil, and โfar-rightโ is that very definition.ย
This led to theย Southern Poverty Law Centerย naming Moms for Liberty as a hate organization just recently. Because they're not woke, they must be a hate group, right? This then allows media like Daily Dot to call Moms for Liberty far-right, because the SPLC said so.ย ย
We've pointed this out before about the SPLC. Anyone whoย doesn't sign up for the SPLC's ideasย gets described as a hate group, as part of that โfar-right.โ They even do it toย medical groups. The basic calculation is not woke = hater.
This is convenient to the progressive media, of course. There's this well-known and accepted group, that SPLC, allowing them to call everyone they disagree with a hate group, which is the very function of the SPLC itself. It's a fount, generator, of propagandistic names.
Moms for Liberty may be correct, and they may be wrong. That's for each of us to decide for ourselves. But they undoubtedly are a group unhappy with how the woke and progressives are taking education. So, the woke and progressive will call them a far-right hate group simply because the SPLC is already set up as the generator of that sort of propaganda.ย ย

Adults don’t listen to commie lunatics. There’s no such thing as a progressive on the left. They’re all regressive.
