Why The Children? Oklahoma PRIDE Month Comes To An End
Thoughts and Observations on the Rapid Increase of Marxism in Oklahoma
June is known by many as LGBTQIA+ Pride month. In Oklahoma, despite being seen as a more conservative state, pride month certainly has continued to grow statewide. A number of concerning issues have been noted and exposed throughout the “red state”. For example, there was some DEI type treatment for a lesbian couple to adopt a baby in Bartlesville, OK, only to result in the death of the two month old. Past child abuse allegations of the couple seemed to be ignored in an effort to be more “inclusive” when choosing a placement home for the baby. The women were given preference for adoption because they were an LGBTQ couple, a source explained. However, there were alleged reports of potential abuse of another child in their care before this, resulting in a broken arm. This apparently was ignored in the name of, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, according to an investigative source.
To be clear, the point being made here is not that the issue is necessarily that the adopting couple was lesbian, but that the preferential treatment seemed to have superseded the safety and well-being of the child in an effort to appear “more inclusive”.

Another growing issues, under the same guise of “inclusion”, is the transgender movement. The completely anti-scientific argument that, “gender is only a social construct”, or that “gender is fluid”, and the sciences of biology, anatomy, psychology, sociology, and so on, are irrelevant to this topic, is only the beginning of society’s decline. In today’s society, where emotion seems to be becoming the overall dictating puppeteer of our decision making, we find the children are the ones that seem to pay the highest price. Many Oklahoma LGBTQIA+ groups are beginning to be more public with their marketing towards children and families for the trans ideology. Metro Family Magazine (OKC), offered a list of pride month events, marketing many of the events towards families and teenage children. Interestingly enough, many of the ads within this article are child based ads for library and sporting events.
The group, ‘Black Queers for Tulsa’, reposted an “urgent” message on their instagram account story a few weeks ago, stating that they needed an “affirming home” for a 14 year old transgender girl. Where are the child’s parents? Is the big question. The original post was made by a group called, ‘Oklahomans for Equality’. This groups has a “Rainbow Library” resource with links to LGBTQ books for children with titles like ‘Either Way: Story of a Gay Kid’ and Who Are You?: The Kid's Guide to Gender Identity’.
Why is it that these issues can’t seem to be left with the adults? Why must it be marketed towards children?
Death By Convenience And Necessity
Marxism preys and thrives upon the victim mentality. Who is most susceptible to becoming a victim (perhaps without even noticing), children of course, and it tends to linger into adulthood. “Today’s Marxist Leftists Want To Keep Minorities Trapped in Perpetual Victimhood”, says Mike Gonzalez, of The Heritage Foundation.
There is no better opportunity to brainwash a child, than when they are “safely” away from their unsuspecting parents.
Step 1: Woman’s Rights Hijacking / The Feminist Movement; Bring Women Into The Workforce, equalling more tax money for the government, and less time with parents for children. Teach woman that they don’t need a man and that pursuing their career is more important that getting married and having children (modern day feminism).
Another way of saying this is,'divide the family (apart) during the work day by manufactured necessity, and you can, over time, eventually divide them by their own choice. Less, in person , face to face, quality bonding time, makes a great recipe for divorce, affairs, and detachment issues. Just think, do the majority of American families sit together, without distraction or interruption at the dinner table every evening like they did in the 60s, 70s, and 80s? (The answer is NO).
There is nothing particularly wrong with women working. The issue is that the lie of modern day feminism is being sold by the boatload, and in fact, many would argue that the idea of desiring to be a stay at home mother, is frowned upon in today’s society.

But who will take care of the children while mom and dad are both at work?
Step 2: Provide full time care (from government trained / paid adults) for the children while the parents are away. We call this public education.
I am going to go off script here and bring a new thought for consideration to the table with this next one;
Step 3: Target teachers due to the high potential for empathy, given their line of work with children (the most vulnerable of the population). Bring in required professional development courses injected with Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) principles, then foster the victim mentality and use fear mongering to encourage educators to sign up for teacher’s unions with the reasoning of, “it’s for your safety”.
With school shootings, violence, altercations with students, and even occasional (often false) accusations of abuse as blackmail, teachers often live in fear for their safety and the safety of their students. This is how the teacher’s unions often persuade teachers to join their union. The “sales person” comes into the professional development meetings and tells a story or gives a list of all the terrible things that COULD happen to the teachers if they are not insured by the union for legal representation, then they sell hundreds of memberships at a time. I was one of the only teachers to not sign up with Tulsa Classroom Teachers Association TCTA in the group of almost 100 new teachers at Tulsa Public Schools (2022-2023). The union workers were relentless in their pursuit, but I managed to avoid them in the end.
Do these unions offer insurance that could be useful in extreme circumstances? Yes. However, Oklahoma fortunately has an alternative option for educators. Professional Oklahoma Educators offers insurance for teachers to obtain legal council without joining a union and being rallied as a political activist.
Step 4: Brainwash the children in the classroom. Teach them what to think, not how to think. It is also important to ensure that it is in-stilled in them, the belief that college is the only viable pathway option to be successful financially and in the work force. The universities are the higher level campgrounds for marxist training.
There are certainly more steps in this process, but these are the pillar concepts that come to mind.
Now that the realm of education has been hijacked for marxist training, we see the ever growing ideologies of victimhood around every corner in society. Movements like Black Lives Matter and the LGBTQ / Pride agenda, prey upon and foster the victim mentality, resulting in entitlement and emotional reactions to just about anything life throws at at a person. These agendas clearly prey upon the most vulnerable. For example, there appears to be an increase in LGBTQ identifying individuals with down syndrome and other forms of autism. “Research suggests that people who have an autism diagnosis or autism traits are more likely to be transgender than the general population.One study found the rate to be two to three times higher in people who have autism. Also, a larger percentage of autistic people reported their gender as being something other than strictly male or female, compared to other people” an author quoted in an article by SPARK; Simons Powering Autism Research.
Along with preying on the weak, it has simply become more convenient to remain a victim in todays society, even into adulthood. A need was created in order for families to stay afloat, and the children (and other vulnerable groups) are being targeted while the parents are away.
The LGBTQ agenda has found its way into Oklahoma classrooms
(Tulsa, OK classroom, 2023 - posted by Libs of TikTok)
‘Anarchist’ Teacher Wants to ‘Burn Down the System’ After Being Exposed for ‘Woke’ Indoctrination’, posted Project Veritas in 2022, Owasso, OK. A teacher, named Tyler Wren, most recently works / worked for Tulsa Public Schools after being fired from Owasso Schools for encouraging students to not listen to their parents if they did not affirm their sexual / gender identity of choice. Sources also say that the late, Nex Benedict (Owasso) was acquainted with Wren, and would visit his classroom often.
Justify The Cause
Every behaviour we portray is somehow justified within our own minds. We rationalise that we will be better for it or that we can simply get away with it, otherwise, we wouldn't do it. The LGBTQ movement, particularly the aspects of it that are geared towards children, come from a place of confusion and deception being accepted as truth by adults, and passed down to children. Science tells us that man was created for woman and woman for man. A basic observation of the human body and behaviours tell us that it is male that is compatible (in many ways) with female. However, the argument that an individual is “born gay” or “born transgender”, is still so widely used, even among many “Christians”, believe it or not. In my own experience and observation, this argument seems to come from the fact that many LGBTQ, or same sex attracted individuals, cannot seem to pin point the starting point of their same sex attraction. Therefore the only reasonably argument is that they must have been born gay, transgender, etc. In other words, if we cannot control it or explain it, it does not exist. It a selfish concept really. There was no mistake made when choosing the title of PRIDE for celebrating the LGBTQ lifestyle. In fact, many same sex attracted individuals are beginning to refuse to identify with the modern day LGBTQ / Pride movement. Activist groups like, Gays Against Groomers, formed a large, increasing platform, when the modern day trans agenda became more blatant about its targeting of children.
I will also say, I am truly convinced, that many adults who target children with the LGBTQ ideologies believe they are doing the child and society a favour.
