I’m not going to take you seriously if you wear cat ears in public. No one else should either. There are only two reasons an adult would do such a thing. One, you are a performance artist who craves constant attention. Two, you’re mentally ill. In the case of Washington Elementary School Board member Tamillia Valenzuela – a self-described “bilingual, disabled, neurodivergent, Queer Black Latina” who also wears cat ears while serving on the board – my guess is the former. But I’m not placing any bets.
Crazy is as crazy does.
Valenzuela got herself in the news recently for her anti-Christian bias in seeking (successfully) to terminate Washington Elementary’s relationship with the teaching college at Arizona Christian University because they are “committed to Jesus Christ, accomplishing his will and advancements on earth as in Heaven.” This is standard liturgical fare for a Christian educational institution. Her real beef appears to be, in her words, that ACU is trying to “transform the culture…by promoting Biblically-informed values.” Which, of course, is intolerable when your goal is to transform the culture with leftist make-believe like demanding people accept your “cathood.” Which brings us to the broader point, the left needs to stop coddling mental illness and infantile play-actors and grow the hell up. Self-proclaimed identity is irrelevant. I don’t care one whit how Ms. Valenzuela chooses to label herself – nor should anyone else – but for Democrats, especially younger Democrats, labels are everything. Advancement in left-wing politics now depends on little more than a hierarchy of claimed oppression and infantile wailing.
The real threat was that ACU was training teachers who might not be committed to indoctrinating students in the modern leftist ideology of fantasy. Forgive me for stating the obvious, but I’m pretty sure most parents don’t want teachers who can’t separate their fantasy lives from reality and feel a need to indoctrinate more kids into their delusions rather than seeking the mental health treatment their neuroses require. But far worse than Valenzuela’s delusions and distaste for traditional values is the fact that she knows there are plenty of educational institutions (though it’s getting harder to actually call them such) that will happily impose acceptance of leftist delusional indoctrination as a condition on their graduates. She knows that across the country thousands of future teachers are being brainwashed by other mentally ill people to ensure the final destruction of public education and replacement with pseudo-Marxist ideological chicanery.
The really disgusting part of this deliberate mis-education is that the people pushing it are keeping their kids out of it. They send them to private schools, charters, and religious schools while fighting to ensure no one else can do so. They know bloody well that the garbage they’re feeding kids’ brains is poisoning their chances of a successful, well-balanced life. But creating self-sufficient, stable adults is the last thing these purveyors of flim-flam want. That kind of person doesn’t need to be taken care of by the government. And then where would the angsty-left be? In the loony bin where they should have been kept all along.
