Hi everyone, I haven't been active in Solid Ground for a while, but I am still alive and kicking! I now work as personal assistant to a mind-bendingly weird and diva-esque artist-lip-syncher-performer named Fiona Blueberry. She is blissfully clueless about politics and seems to be completely unaware of the culture wars. Working with her is a breath of fresh air. If you need a mood lift, I encourage you to watch this video we made together. Happy 4th, everyone! Wishing you fun/love/peace on this holiday. :) www.fionablueberry.com
Our very own @YayRain (after having imbibed some golden nectar), shares with us yet one more problem with CRT....
I found this conversation Megyn had with Alvin Liu of Courage Is a Habit quite concerning.
I'm having a conversation with an acquaintance tomorrow who just went to CPAC and seems to think they are all in upside-down world. I agree with him on a couple of his points but am mostly going to need to counter him on a lot of them. He noted in a recent Medium piece on his visit to CPAC that he encountered a lot of Orwellian language. I'm thinking have you not been listening to your own side, but I'm also forgetting a lot of the particular instances in which we have seen that take place. Could you guys help me think of some good instances?
Not sure if you have been following this story (Megyn Kelly has touched on it), but a female high school basketball player recently refused to play when she realized there was a boy playing on the opposing team and she also went up to the boy and told him she knew he was masculine (I am not sure if she said man or boy). The school proceeded to sanction her for harrassment, and the case has gotten a lot of local and some national media attention. FAIR has stepped in to support the girl. One of our members informed us in today's peer-support group that a local podcaster has interviewed the girl and the boy, and he was able to provide a link to the latter (it sounds like the former is paywalled).
Here is the letter FAIR wrote to the Office of Civil Rights asking them to investigate this case: https://www.fairforall.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/Civil-Rights-Complaint_Tumwater-Schools.pdf
