Newly Surfaced “Moms for Liberty” Video Shows Their Religious Extremist Agenda

Thanks to politicians are poody heads for the link.

M4L is a nationwide “parental rights” organization. Like Truth and Liberty, M4L strives to take over and transform public school boards in their own Christian “conservative” image. The Southern Poverty Law Center has designated M4L as an extremist group due to their anti-LGBTQ+ policies and ties to the Proud Boys, which led the assault on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.

“Truth and Liberty,” the nonprofit that hosted Mr. and Mrs. Donalds, was founded by pastor Andrew Wommack, who has said that gay people should wear warning labels on their foreheads. Its board of directors includes Lance Wallnau, a self-described Christian nationalist, who said in 2020 that America “must destroy the public education system before it destroys us.”

Wallnau also popularized the “seven mountains” mandate trumpeted by Truth and Liberty. The mandate is a supposedly divine strategy used by Christian supremacists in order to achieve societal dominion for God, as I’ve reported previously. They seek control over these seven “mountains” or “spheres”: business, government, family, religion, media, entertainment, and education.

Here’s an interview I was just reading; it’s with an author whose book has been banned up in IA. The whole thing is good, but here’s a taste:

 "If there’s anything we have in the U.S. that I think is really good, it is constant conversation about what is right, what is wrong, what should be allowed, what shouldn’t be allowed. Now, one of the things we know about banned books is that for many banned books that improves the sales of the book. And the reason is that as soon as you tell someone, especially someone who is young, that they aren’t allowed to know a particular thing, then that person wants to know what it is. That person is curious and wants to know why he or she can’t know about that particular thing.

 "Let’s use a different example. Let’s say that I lived near a polluted river. And my city did not allow any information about what was in the polluted river to be in the papers, to be in the news, to be on the internet. And yet, people in my city were getting ill and dying at a much higher rate than people who lived away from the river. Is my city going to justify those deaths by refusing to let anybody know how the river is being polluted? I think that’s a similar issue."

The interview is here: https://lithub.com/jane-smiley-on-what-its-like-to-have-your-book-banned/

Jane Smiley seems so reasonable compared to those who would silence her.

Hi Ali. Thanks for the link. I read the interview. A book written from the female perspective in a deep red republican misogynistic state doesn’t stand a chance. Yes it was going on the banned list no matter what they wanted to use to justify it. I hope this banning bull ends soon, as she said it is up to the parents not the state to decide what a child can read or watch. Hugs Scottie
