You are the government.
They are NOT your kids.

America disagrees with you. There IS such a thing as someone else's kids.
Even in CALIFORNIA, 64% disagree with you. Even the Democrats!https://t.co/W8iOXaAQDy https://t.co/ET5gFbUMWi pic.twitter.com/KauPNPAFwd

Hey @WhiteHouse: These aren't your kids. They're my kids. If you think otherwise, we're gonna have a serious problem. https://t.co/IZcodwyRIS pic.twitter.com/ZUNjU8SIqX

They’re confused by the possessive case.
Typically it represents reciprocal relations and responsibilities that usually are difficult to dissolve. My father, my son; my wife, my husband; my dog, his master.
The way they’re dissolved is by disowning or something similarly hard.
They mean exactly that. The government has obligations toward those kids (actual parents, butt out!) and the kids have obligations to the government (and not so much to their actual parents.)
They’re wrong if I have anything to say about it, they’re lying, but that’s what they mean, every bit of it.
Agreed. When your political opposition tells you who they are and what they believe the prudent thing is accept it at face value. Especially in this context where there was already a simmering anger about the use of the ‘our kids’ language.
This wasn’t a mistake, it was a deliberate choice of language to convey exactly the meaning they intended; your children are now our children and if Parents get in the way of indoctrination they are bigoted terrorists full of ‘ists and isms’.
Given how poorly Gropey Joe has done with his own kids as as a
victimgraduate of public schools, I am very much against letting any government-affiliated individual near children. You just can’t trust them.Thought exercise: Many locals hold parents accountable for underage thugs’ actions. Does that mean we should hold the Entier left ( those are our kids) accountable?
Totally agree with that sentiment. Makes me wonder though. In the entirety of human history, has the Left EVER been held accountable for ANYTHING?
I think Nicolae Ceaușescu of Romania was held accountable. But the general rule still holds: nearly all leftist dictators die in the comfort of their own beds.
Poor LGBTQwhatevers. Buncha chumps. Don’t they know that if someone says “I’m from the government and I’m here to help,” the only response is to run away as fast as you can — ? Haven’t they ever heard that? So gullible it ain’t funny.
As for the children. You have a whole bunch of YOUR children, Joe, running feral, disrespecting everything good, turning into career criminals. Better round them all up and teach them some manners. Tell them to leave everyone and their stuff alone. Send them to bed without any supper.
“All the kids are everyone’s kids.” Yeah BS. Pfft. Straight out of Karl Marx.
Our family consists of my dear wife my children my sons in law and my grandchildren The state does not raise my children or grandchildren
Unless you want an abortion, then the government should be “hands off”
In Californica, if you don’t do what the kids say, in terms of gender “choices,” they can take your kids.
That is so absurd they couldn’t put it in a movie. Unless it was a Chinese communist movie….
Can I spank a misbehaving child at the supermarket?
No, you are not a state-licensed child sanctioner.
I wouldn’t touch them for any reason unless they’re attacking another child. Paranoid parents and overly aggressive prosecutors have made the risk of an assault or abuse accusation far too dangerous to make any but the most necessary intervention worthwhile.
You have to understand what the Left is really trying to get across – Homosexual “couples” cannot have kids. They can buy kids. One of them can have a kid (just as any individual can have a kid with someone else of the opposite sex). But the homosexual “unit” cannot have kids.
The left is trying to erase all concept of blood and biological relations so that trannies and homosexual groupings can pretend that they are able to “make families” just like normal couples.
That, and the communists are trying to push their insane idea that all belongs to the state. EVERYTHING and everyone. It’s not just that the left thinks that your kids belong to them, they think that you belong to them, too.
That is actually changing through genetic research. There are ways to create offspring without a father now. It’s still rudimentary and not ready for humans but it is being done in lesser species all of the time through genetic manipulation.
Sure. And cloning has been around for a long time, which doesn’t need a mother or a father.
But we have yet to see what comes of those procedures. They are not the same as natural procreation and will almost certainly show to have many serious, grotesque weaknesses. On top of that, most of evolutionary advancement seems to take place through crossover mutation (sexual procreation) and not random mutation. Stopping that process is playing with fire in a really scary way … but, we’ll see.
Until then, and the advent of cloned and manufactured humans so that individuals need no one to reproduce (or even not needing the individual if we are drawing from a genetic library) we have the natural family as the foundation of society and the inherent keystone to personality.
When the government says “these are our kids”, what they mean is “they are not your kids”.

Dopey Joe has disowned his granddaughter.
Jeff Sessions had to slap Biden’s hands away from his granddaughter.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvK-ze8_0CU
I’d follows Mr. Sessions’ example.
Except I’d smack that sick c*nt in his lying mouth if he tried that crap with my kid
Biden is disgusting. I never saw that video of Sessions slapping FJB’s hand away. The expression on Sessions’ face says it all. He is repelled and ticked off. Good for him.
The video is hard to watch. The poor girl in the red dress was so uncomfortable. Shame on her father for not telling the creep to back away.
The scene with Sessions, look at Biden’s face when he sees the small girl alone. The look of a sick f*&%ing predator and Sessions reaction and stare down of Biden tells me he knows Biden is a pedo. Yes, he stepped in for his own daughter but what about all the rest victimized by him over the years. They are all cowards for staying silent.
Big Brother loves you! Trust Big Brother! Big Brother will take care of you!
Hillary admitted this line of thinking years ago. Not sure why anyone would be surprised that the left consider the children theirs to indoctrinate, medicate and surgically alter at their whim.
Consider this:
Vivisection is the surgical procedure of cutting or operating on a living animal for experimental purposes, typically for physiological or pathological investigation.3 The term is used as a pejorative catch-all term for experimentation on live animals by organizations opposed to animal experimentation, but it is rarely used by practicing scientists. Vivisection sparked a massive controversy in the 1800s, but its proponents upheld its necessity and utility, lauding the progress that had been possible because vivisection allowed doctors to test surgeries and learn about the body in ways that would help them treat human patients. Vivisection is opposed by many as cruelty and supported by others on the ground that it advances medicine. A middle position is to oppose unnecessarily cruel practices, use alternatives when possible, and restrict experiments to necessary medical research.”
BTW, all of these lunatic leftists ideas were put into practice in reasonably sized, intelligent, hard-working, totally devoted communities – the kibbutzim. They tried communal raising of children – all kids got transferred to the kids’ house and were raised by the kibbutz, as a whole. It took about a generation and a half until that was done away with on almost every kibbutz, because it was so repulsive and abnormal. Even the die-hard leftist kibbutznics couldn’t stand it. Even in medium sized groups, very close to each other all the time. They all felt in their bones that their kids were their own kids and not the kibbutz’s kids.
Pretty much every hair-brained, insane leftist idea was tried on a bunch of kibbutzim … and they all failed. Any time someone wants to know about leftism and its inherent weaknesses and fatal flaws one need only look to the Israeli kibbutzim and concrete examples abound. And it wasn’t for lack of trying.
Pretty much every hair-brained, insane leftist idea was tried
on a bunch of kibbutzim… and they all failed.There. FTFY.
The Left has no new ideas, and all of them have been tried somewhere, at some time. With a long-term success record of 0%.
Leftism is all about centralized control. Centralized control always fails because the one-size-fits-all model of governance simply cannot duplicate the successes or innovation of free-thinking and -acting of private minds.
So of course, the Left’s response is to do it again, only HARDER.
The point of the kibbutzim is, itself, very important. The left always argues that they didn’t have the right size, or the right people or whatever other excuse. But there were hundreds of kibbutzim, of all different sizes, acting as laboratories for all of these leftist ideas – not all the same, many different examples of testing. And they all failed.
There are specific lessons to be learned from the kibbutz experience that you cannot get from other leftist implementations and that makes those particular cases important and instructive for all.
As with everything else, the government is trying to have it both ways: assuming a privilege but rejecting all responsibility and accountability that comes with it.
Suppose you let them make all the rules and you follow them, and your kids are endangered by them. Do you think CPS will blame the government for making the rules? Blame the politicians and bureaucrats and hold them accountable?
Or do you think they’ll blame you for endangering your kids and try to hold you accountable?
Alternatively, you could follow your own rules and keep your kids safe, but do you think the government will see the results and commend you for doing a good job? Or do you think they’ll see the results and condemn you because they think you’re doing it wrong and they could do it better?
Bottom line: Nobody gets to claim ownership of my kids and leave me with the accountability of raising them. My spouse and I built this family, invested ourselves in it, and watched it grow; it’s ours, not yours.
You want them? Come and take them. Bring friends.
Molon labe.
(Note to the feds monitoring this channel: That is NOT a threat. That is nothing more or less than a stated desire and intention to be left alone.)
It takes a Potemkin Village to raise a kids, according to the vile, corrupt and immoral Dumb-o-crat snakes.
I would hope the Biden Administration keeps this up, along with more “pride” events with trans whatever they are exposing their breasts. Maybe more people will have the scales fall from their eyes and realize how evil and perverted the Biden Administration is.
President Groomer.
Elon, until just recently fully libtarded (voted for Biden, even) seems to have been “red-pilled” (which is a process) as a result of what the trans groomers did to his daughter.
Its personal for him.
Still, he wrote it very well. I wouldn’t have thought of “You are the government” to put them in their place.
HC said the same thing *30 years ago* in her crypto-collectivist book about the *village* owning the children.
“Children of the Corn X: The Curse of the Dumb-o-crat Demons.”
Now playing at a theater near you.
In 1925, in Pierce v. Society of Sisters . . .
“The fundamental theory of liberty upon which all governments in this Union repose excludes any general power of the state to standardize its children by forcing them to accept instruction from public teachers only. *The child is not the mere creature of the state*; those who nurture him and direct his destiny have the right, coupled with the high duty, to recognize and prepare him for additional obligations.”
Give it another few years and that opinion will not be allowed because of its gender-specific language, regardless that using male pronouns to refer to a non-specific person was normal at the time it was written.
Still, that’s a fine point to tuck away for future debates, especially in places where the governments are severely limiting private schools, closing charter schools, and banning home education, thus forcing public schools as the only option. Thank you for that.
