We asked my daughter’s middle school to remove the LGBT flag from her classrooms because it goes against our values and they’re pushing back. Discussion/Debate
They said that displaying the lgbt flag aligns with their inclusivity values and being asked to remove the flag goes against their anti-discrimination policy. ( which I haven’t read). Has anyone challenged their schools to remove this flag? What has been your experience?

Well it’s political. Even if they are claiming inclusivity, it isn’t actually the general idea of inclusiveness but rather a highly politicized symbol which represents (arguably) inclusivity. They also probably follow a series of Marxist ideas regarding the need to fight back against power, or what could be argued to be the mainstream/white or Christian culture. It’s not too difficult to get them to admit to all sorts of aggressive, intolerant positions out of a need to “balance the power imbalance”.
That’s clearly an ideological agenda, and if some people don’t go along with their specific values, then how can they claim it’s inclusive?
