🇧🇷 A Brazilian judge just sentenced two parents to prison for homeschooling their daughters.
Their crime, according to the court: "intellectual neglect" and not teaching state-approved "gender and sex education."
The girls are 15 and 11. They speak multiple languages and are both accomplished pianists.
An independent psychologist found zero signs of neglect. The prosecutor recommended acquittal.
The judge convicted them anyway. 50 days behind bars.
It's the first time in Brazilian history parents have been criminally prosecuted for homeschooling.
The mother's response: "I cannot conceive a more dictatorial state than the one that wants me in jail because I chose to exercise my right to direct the education and upbringing of my daughters."
Their case is now headed to appeal.

WHAT A BADASS!!!!!!!!!!
Reminder that Mollie Tibbets father told you not to hate immigrants and that we need them for tasty tacos.
To be clear, this is what tacos are worth to him:
-His daughter had a full ear of corn with the shuck on shoved up here ass so hard and so many times her intestines burst, she was then raped.
-After the rape, she had her ovaries sloppily removed, her uterus lacerated repeatedly, and her vaginal walls were punctured and lacerated over 100 times.
-Her exterior tissue was heavily lacerated, as well as labia / vulva.
-She lived 23 minutes after the perp left.
Turning Point USA just released a short documentary on Alberta’s independence movement.
It’s worth a watch.
The world is starting to notice what’s happening here.
@nettermike@KeriA1776again Because justice is indoctrinated out of us. Kids have a very strong sense of justice. We’re told to leave it to someone else. But justice is instantaneous, not delayed.
@BrianAtlas I held a freezer door open for a woman in the grocery store when I was 7 years old, and she grabbed what she wanted and walked off without acknowledging me. In front of my mother. That was 40 years ago.
🚨 BREAKING: 301,620 signatures have officially been announced for the Alberta independence petition.
That is far beyond the required threshold to trigger the Alberta independence vote on October 19th.
A massive day for the Alberta Independence movement.
A guy in Alberta is selling tractors with zero computers. No software. No sensors. Just a diesel engine you can fix with a wrench.
400 American farmers tried to buy one after a single interview.

It's less.
@1stclassclips If it was OC, you were too close because the propellant has to evaporate before the OC actually comes in contact with the skin. The more you spray, the longer it takes to take effect. Quick burst. If it was CN/CS, there are people who can withstand the chemicals.
What radicalized you?
For me, it happened back in my freshman year of high school in the early 2000s. The head coach of our hockey team believed in getting the team home to our own beds after road games no matter what instead of staying in hotels. Hotels were a distraction. With no hotel costs, he wanted to use the money to upgrade our road meals. Nothing fancy, just basic meat and potatoes type places like Cracker Barrel or Perkins instead of cold Little Caesars on a dark January bus ride home across rural North Dakota. The athletic director and superintendent shut the idea down and basically just absorbed the savings from his no hotel policy into the athletics budget.
So after that our coach, the other assistants, the parents, and us players started fundraising in the off‑season in hopes to get better meals on the road. The first year went great. We raised a ton and were easily able to have nicer sit down meals on every single trip. We all sat together at big tables, had actual food choices, ate healthier and built even more camaraderie. It was fantastic all around.
But then other sports teams and parents caught wind. It was seen as unfair. The AD, principal, and superintendent demanded we stop, in order to keep things “equal” across all sports at our public school. They even tried to force our coach to hand over the privately raised money so it could be redistributed. Thankfully, our coach was an old‑school Canadian ex‑pro hockey player who didn’t take shit from anyone, and told them to F off, and we continued with our meatloaf road meals as planned. The principal and AD eventually backed off, but the superintendent had a vendetta against our team and probably mostly just our coach so he never stopped. He even went as low as instructing bus drivers not to take us to the restaurants we’d planned for on the road. Our coach always overrode it, once even driving the bus himself since he had the license from coaching cross‑country.
Over the next few years we continued the fundraising for better meals. Some of the other teams, and other parents continued to badger the supt., our coach and even sometime us players about it instead of just joining us in fundraising.
Watching peers and especially some of our own “leaders” work so hard to sabotage a positive thing for us was eye opening and really stuck with us. It gave us an early look at how petty and nefarious and systems and people can be, even at the local level.
And honestly, in the end, all it did was radicalize about 30 teenage hockey players for the rest of their lives who walked away believing “equality” was the dirtiest word in the English language. 😂
