Free speech for fascists, censorship for rainbows—Utah’s latest legislative masterpiece. Banning Pride flags as “political” while greenlighting swastikas under the paper-thin guise of “curriculum.” Peak intellectual dishonesty from a party allergic to consistency.
Prioritizing Confederate nostalgia over queer survival isn’t governance—it’s state-sanctioned bigotry. When a kid’s suicide risk hinges on your performative flag ban, maybe revisit your moral compass. Spoiler: It’s spinning off its axis.
The Nazi flag isn’t history—it’s hate. Allowing its display “for education” while scrubbing Pride symbols reeks of ideological laundering. Textbook fascism wrapped in patriotic gaslighting.
But hey, at least they’re united in one thing: protecting straight kids from the trauma of… checks notes… fabric rainbows. Priorities!

Prohibiting rainbows gives me a strong "yuck, I'm gonna get cooties from your pink backpack" vibe.
-
I'd say that moral compass is spinning Right on the Axis...

If I ever see a Nazi flag being flown, I am setting that fucking thing on fire.
-
There is this huge Confederate flag that flies near my house and the number of times I've wanted to set that shit in fire...
Though I fully expect to get shot if I went anywhere near it.

Folks displaying Tr×mp signs and hate symbols in the US are begging for others to come onto their property & vandalize their shit, just so they can do violence against the offenders.
If you plan to vandalize something, please be cautious. I've seen FB posts about how they'd love for "liberals to try and take it down so I have an excuse to open fire."
Psychotic.

Just the flag? Not the associated buildings?
-
What it some Nazi dickbag runs a Nazi flag up someone else's pole? They don't deserve their shit burned down, but I can see no case in which the flag itself isn't fair game.

That's far, far too respectful in my opinion, but I can't think of a better option that doesn't risk blocking the sewers.

The logic is Nazi flags are part of history so it’s a curriculum thing that allows it to be displayed as part of the lesson. So if you teach a lesson on the history of stone wall or obergefell v Hodges you can fly the flag? Nope, too woke
-
If that was the logic it raises the question of why we continue to ignore lgbtq+ history. Which leads us right back to the real reason.

Really fast way to get kids to burn Nazi flags in the school

Or salute it. Don’t get your hopes too high

Someone tried to tell me yesterday that Cascadia should welcome Utah into its ranks.
Lol, I say to you, random dude from, I assume, SLC.
Lmao even.

“Our schools should be a place for children to learn, to not feel like they are being pushed or seen as agendas in one way other another as it pertains to political beliefs.”
So why are you pushing them to be nazis?
-
Are Mormons Nazis? Because Utah = Mormons. And this is what they are advocating? Asking as a Canadian.
-
Usually
-
Mormons are not Nazis. Any person that claims they are Mormon, and then acts like a Nazi, is not Mormon. That person is a Nazi. No person that actually follows the ideologies of that church will advocate for this. I see this as a litmus test to see who is Mormon and who is not, regardless of what they claim.
-
The state is dominated by Mormons in every facet is it not? These republican representatives reflect values of their voters do they not? You can't possibly claim that somehow a small tiny minority radicals have taken control of the legislature and the state's politics.
