Unhinged Florida preschool teacher brags about telling kids they can choose their family: 'F**k your mom! ... I am so sad and I hate my sister!'



A woman who is allegedly a preschool teacher in Florida posted a viral video detailing how she teaches students that they can choose their family and claimed it had nothing to do with her "queerness." The same woman said she teaches her students to be gay.

The video was posted by Dede Duffy, who uses the account name Watr.Bug on TikTok with about 17,000 followers, as reported by Louder with Crowder.

Duffy, who is reportedly a preschool teacher in Cape Coral, Florida, spoke about the concept of "chosen families" from the front seat of a car and explained how she felt she didn't receive adequate affection as a child, so she teaches her young students that they should love their friends more than their parents.

"I feel like I had to learn the concept of chosen families really young, and it wasn't anything to do with my queerness, but just based on the fact that I didn't have the love at home that I needed," Duffy expressed. "I knew that I was valuable and deserved it, so I found it on my own early on, and I shouldn't be blamed for that because blood, it still exists."

Duffy then exploded into a diatribe about hating her family and her deep sadness: "You were never there for me, and I found my own love, and that's okay, and I think everyone should be allowed to do that, and that's what I f**cking teach in the classroom, okay?" she exclaimed. "I always say give it to your friend, not your mom, because f**k your mom! And I don't know, I've just been so sad. I am so sad, and I hate my sister, she is a f**king c***."

Meet DeDe Duffy. A preschool teacher in Cape Coral, FL. She says she teaches her students that if they don\u2019t like their parents, they can find another family. \n\nShe also says she teaches them to be gay. \n\nThese are the people teaching your kids.

The final portion of the video showed the teacher with excessive amounts of makeup, in a classroom, with a caption that read "the only thing these [Florida] kids r learning from me is be gay."

Popular X account Libs of TikTok shared the video of Duffy and garnered nearly 12 million views in under two days.

TREMBLE, libs: High school boys TWICE as likely to be conservative



Are the political tides changing for the youth?

According to a recent University of Michigan survey, boys in their senior year of high school are almost two times more likely to identify as conservative than as liberal. However, girls of the same age are even more likely to consider themselves liberal than conservative.

While this is partially good news for the future of our country, Chad Prather is concerned about the high school girls.

“You know, the problem with what’s going on in our country. We’ve given too much voice to girls that are college age,” Prather says, adding, “They’re the ones that are the screeching progressives out there.”

Those girls have been “indoctrinated,” Prather believes.

Sky Corban, content creator and political commentator, agrees.

“You’re seeing a trend of Obama, and then those people that grew up, they grew up under that kind of leftist regime there,” Corban says, continuing, “and now these senior boys grew up under Trump, and so they kind of like that masculinity approach and so they’re becoming more conservative.”

“It’s that pendulum that swings like you’re talking about, which is good,” he adds.

Nike to host panel with 'queer' surgeon who has performed gender-transition surgeries on children

Nike to host panel with 'queer' surgeon who has performed gender-transition surgeries on children



Nike will celebrate Pride Month with a series of discussions, donations, and panels, including a panel with a gender-reassignment surgeon who has admitted to performing “gender affirming mastectomies” on minors, according to a leaked email obtained by the Daily Wire.

The email reportedly starts with the declaration that "this year’s theme is Together We Are Undeniable. The LGBTQIA+ community continues to fight for equality – their fight to be themselves.”

Nike said its gay pride theme for the month “centers around determination; celebrating icons of the community and the progress we have and will continue to make in light of recent attacks and restrictions on the community and their allies.”

Perhaps one of these "icons" Nike referred to was Dr. Blair Peters, a surgeon at the Oregon Health and Science University who has specialized in "Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery." Peters' "special focus" is listed as "Gender Affirming Surgery" and "Peripheral Nerve Disorders."

Peters, who has admitted to performing "gender affirming mastectomies" on minors, will host a panel and question period transgender policies.

“I performed gender affirming mastectomies (top surgeries) for 3 young adults and adolescents today," Peters said in a now-deleted tweet. "All had supportive parents present. You could see the family relief the second we wheeled back to the OR. I could sense the shift. 'We made it. We have a chance.'," he added.

\u201cHere he is bragging about it again.\u201d
— Libs of TikTok (@Libs of TikTok) 1652414858

“Join the Human Rights Campaign, Portland Community Football Club’s Kaig Lightner, and OHSU Trans Health Program’s Dr. Blair Peters for a panel and Q&A to discuss policies impacting the transgender community,” the leaked email said, advertising a July 11, 2023, event.

Peters also described himself in an OHSU video as a "queer, gender diverse" surgeon who uses he/they pronouns. He also described gender-affirming surgery as "using surgery to help someone physically actualize their internal sense of self."

In an example scenario, Peters said that he had "an adolescent patient who [hadn't] been going to school … and they [came] back to clinic two months after top surgery … thriving all of the sudden.”

"I view surgery as changing something that makes someone feel dysphoric to make them feel euphoric and better," Peters added.

Nike will also reportedly celebrate the month with a "family-friendly" drag queen story time on July 13, 2023. The email described the event as "spotlighting local queer, women, and minority-owned businesses.”

“You will have an opportunity to cultivate an undeniable sense of community and belonging with your Nike teammates through activations like … a family friendly Drag Story Time," the email stated.

A June 20, 2023, event will "welcome environmental educator Isaias Hernandez … to explore queer ecology.” Hernandez describes himself as a "queer and brown environmentalist."

Along with events, Nike has pledged money to "LGBTQIA+" organizations to the tune of $600,000 according to the email, including groups that have produced an “LGBTQ History Coloring Book” for kids and Camp Lightbulb, an organization that has “LGBTQ+ youth” as young as 14 stay at overnight camps.

Nike did not immediately respond to a request for comment. This story will be updated with any answers Nike provides.

'Erasing women': Adidas women's swimsuit model has chest hair and bulge; pride-themed clothing line launched to 'honor the LGBTQIA+ community'

'Erasing women': Adidas women's swimsuit model has chest hair and bulge; pride-themed clothing line launched to 'honor the LGBTQIA+ community'



Adidas used what appeared to be a male model to promote its "pride"-themed clothing collection, with a person who has a hairy chest and visible bulge modeling a swimsuit for the "women's sportswear" section.

The Daily Mail reported that Adidas' "Pride 2023" collection features a $70 swimsuit as part of its line, with the mantra "Let Love Be Your Legacy." The swimsuit, listed under "women's clothing," appears to be modeled by a man with a hairy chest and crotch bulge.

The fashion line was designed by South African designer Rich Mnisi, who is listed in the product's description as having written a letter to his "younger queer self" to "let love be [his] legacy."

The text also described the fashion line as a "celebration of self-expression, imagination and the unwavering belief that love unites, the collaboration explores fluidity, color and patterns." It adds that the partnership with Adidas is to "honor the LGBTQIA+ community alongside our Global Purpose partner Athlete Ally."

"I dont understand why companies are voluntarily doing this to themselves," said Riley Gaines, former NCAA athlete turned activist for women's sports. "They could have at least said the suit is 'unisex', but they didn't because its about erasing women. Ever wondered why we hardly see this go the other way? Women's swimsuits arent accessorized with a bulge," she continued.

— Riley Gaines (@Riley Gaines) 1684338406

Designer Mnisi launched the fashion campaign by saying "In creating this collection, I had a strong impulse to speak to my inner-child and express to the world how LGBTQ+ allyship can create a legacy of love."

"My hope is this range inspires LGBTQ+ allies to speak up more for the queer people they love and not let them fight for acceptance alone," Mnisi continued.

Additional clothing in the Adidas pride-themed line includes garments that read "Love Wins," also modeled by what appear to be men, according to the Daily Mail.

As of this publication, the swimsuit had received a total review score of 1.1/5, with a total of 147 reviews. "Hope the same thing that happen to budlight happens to them.. with this woke trash," the top review read.

"Go woke go broke! What a horrible stance you are taking! Stop mocking women! We see you and we will stop supporting you," another reviewer wrote.

Neither Adidas nor Mnisi have responded to requests for comment.

'Transformers' cartoon bashed on social media for pushing transgender agenda with non-binary robot alien: 'This is DISGUSTING!'



A cartoon about alien robots intended for children is being ridiculed and excoriated online for introducing a non-binary robot character into a beloved franchise from the 1980s.

Among those posting videos from "Transformers: EarthSpark" was the Libs of TikTok account.

\u201cRecent episode from the kid\u2019s show Transformers: EarthSpark. They\u2019re after your kids.\u201d
— Libs of TikTok (@Libs of TikTok) 1683828458

The short clip shows the "Nightshade" robot character tell a human character that its pronouns are they and them, and the human responds with more pronoun preferences. The character then goes on to say that they feel better whenever in the presence of another person who is non-binary.

“I know I’m safe when I’m with my friends or other non-binary people," the character says in the clip.

That clip garnered more than 8.6 million views on Twitter.

"Recent episode from the kid’s show Transformers: EarthSpark. They’re after your kids," wrote the Libs of TikTok account.

"This is DISGUSTING," replied Megyn Kelly.

"This is naked propaganda. But why would you want to encourage kids to be 'non-binary'?" read another popular tweet.

"Christian parents, are you monitoring your kids’ media intake? There simply cannot be unmonitored content for our young ones anymore. You must pre-screen everything you invite into your home," responded another critic.

"Woke activists are flooding kids shows with gender and trans content so that 'woke' gender ideology becomes the cultural air your children breath," read another tweet.

"Transformers: EarthSpark" is streaming on the Paramount+ online network.

The very popular "Transformers" franchise was first introduced as a Saturday morning cartoon in the 1980s and quickly became a favorite of Gen X. It was revived in a series of action-adventure movies decades later.

Here's a video from the new 'Transformers' cartoon:

Self-proclaimed 'personal trainer with a fat body' actually says it's 'fatphobic' to intentionally lose weight



A self-proclaimed "personal trainer with a fat body" declared in a TikTok video that it's "fatphobic" to intentionally lose weight.

Huh?

Libs of TikTok grabbed the video and posted it Wednesday to Twitter — apparently before the clip disappeared from the TikTok-user's page, which is titled "Wellness with Ashantis."

She calls herself — among other titles on her Instagram page — a "weight-neutral personal trainer."

Her declaration came in an answer to the question, "Are there really zero circumstances in which intentional weight loss is healthy and not fatphobic? This is real? And I am genuinely curious."

Ashantis replied, "I'm going to say 99.9 percent of the time, if you are intentionally losing weight, it is fatphobic." She did leave a smidgen of wiggle room "in case I am truly, truly wrong" but added, "I don't think I am."

More from her response:

And here's the reason why: I'm not saying if you exercise and happen to lose weight that that is fatphobic. I'm not saying if you start medication and you happen to lose weight that is fatphobic. I am not saying that if you're going through any type of ... illness and that is altering your body in some way that that is fatphobic. I'm saying when you are intentionally exercising to lose weight, altering your diet to lose weight, doing any activity intentionally to lose weight is fatphobic. And the reason why is because you are intentionally attempting to make your body smaller to fit into what narrative? The narrative that smaller is healthier. Even though we've already discussed why that's not true.

Ashantis said all this while admitting she's "a personal trainer with a fat body" and concluded, "So, pretty much no: There is no time in which intentional weight loss is not fatphobic. And that's just kinda the way it is."

\u201cMental health counselor says losing weight intentionally is fatphobic\u201d
— Libs of TikTok (@Libs of TikTok) 1681942474

Others beg to differ

Naturally, many commenters were not on board with Ashantis:

  • Former MLB pitcher C.J. Wilson wrote, "Alexa, show me the mental gymnastics required to settle for bad outcomes."
  • Former UFC fighter Nik Lentz added, "Don't worry about it.... people that think like this will self-correct themselves out of the gene pool. Just takes a little time."

More than a few others added responses in the neighborhood of "I'm heart disease, diabetes and arthritis-phobic."

But wait, there's more

If you're having a hard time wrapping your mind around Ashantis' first clip, another one posted to her TikTok page a few days ago may cause your jaw to hit the floor.

In it she says, "It's really interesting to me how thin people will be like, 'That's not fatphobic!' in the same way that white people will be like, 'That's not racist!'"

Ashantis adds in the video that "anti-fat bias is a system of oppression. It stems from and works very similarly to capitalism in the sense that it is completely ingrained into our lives; it is completely embedded into what most of us believe to be true about health. But it is actually based in also racism — another system of oppression — and eugenics."

Check out the second clip while it's still up. Content warning: Language:

@iamashantis

Replying to @rebeccanelson2018 you commented. I responded. Intentional weight loss is universal. If I interviewed 100 people, I bet at least 99 of them will say they’ve tried to lose weight. It’s a shared experience, but it doesn’t have to be. When you ask folks WHY they have tried to loose weight, many will say for their health, but what’s really behind that? Fatphobia. Fatphobia and Anti Fat Bias controls what we eat, when we eat, what we wear, what exercise we do, our relationship to ourselves, how we’re treated by others, and SO MUCH MORE! The core of it is what leads people to seek intentional weight loss. So yes - it is fatphobic, but it doesn’t mean you’re a bad person. You’re just navigating the system in the best way you know how.

AOC poses with Libs of TikTok founder — who then shocks Dem lawmaker with notice of ethics complaint



Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez stormed off Thursday after being informed by the Libs of TikTok founder that she had filed an ethics complaint against the Democratic lawmaker.

What is the background?

At a House Oversight and Accountability Committee on Feb. 8, Ocasio-Cortez accused Libs of TikTok creator Chaya Raichik of lying when she circulated claims that Boston Children's Hospital is "now offering 'gender affirming hysterectomies' for young girls."

Ocasio-Cortez also claimed that Raichik's lying had "culminated in real life harassment and ultimately a bomb threat to the Boston Children's Hospital."

Fact-checks affirmed claims that Raichik spread false information. But Raichik has defended herself from such accusations, defense which culminated with an ethics complaint against Ocasio-Cortez.

What happened with AOC?

On Thursday, Raichik stopped by Ocasio-Cortez's office in the Cannon House Office Building to deliver the ethics complaint personally. Ocasio-Cortez, unfortunately, was not present at the time, so Raichik delivered it to one of her staff members.

But as luck would have it, Raichik later ran into Ocasio-Cortez as she walked through the Capitol.

Raichik stopped Ocasio-Cortez and posed for a photo. As both women were smiling for the picture, Raichik informed Ocasio-Cortez about the ethics complaint. That's when the Democratic lawmaker insulted Raichik and ran away.

"I just delivered a complaint to your office because you lied about me in a committee hearing," Raichik told Ocasio-Cortez. "I never inspired a bomb threat."

"No. You are actually super transphobic, and I never want to share a space with you! Thank you," Ocasio-Cortez responded as she hurried off.

\u201cBREAKING: I served @AOC with an ethics complaint after she lied about me in a committee hearing. AOC wasn\u2019t in her office but then I bumped into her as I was leaving the Capitol!\n\nWatch what happens:\u201d
— Libs of TikTok (@Libs of TikTok) 1680186341

What does the ethics complaint say?

The ethics complaint, according to Fox News, accuses Ocasio-Cortez of violating House ethics rules by "knowingly and intentionally defaming Chaya Raichik, creator of the viral Libs of TikTok account, falsely accusing her of lying and disseminating disinformation."

The complaint also defends the substance of Raichik's accusation against Boston Children's Hospital. Fox News explained:

The nine-page complaint defends Raichik’s view that Boston Children’s Hospital performs gender-affirming hysterectomies on young girls. Aside from being the "premier pediatric hospital," Heritage noted that the hospital’s website notes that it performs gender-affirmation surgery to "eligible adolescents," and that the Journal of Clinical Medicine has documented that the hospital has "performed 65 double-mastectomies on minors over the course of three years."

Other material collected by Heritage shows that gender-affirmation surgery has been performed on patients as young as 15, and that the hospital "quietly changed its website to reflect that ‘genital surgeries are only performed on patients age 18 and older."

If it is determined that Ocasio-Cortez violated House ethics rules, the complaint urges the Office of Congressional Ethics to reprimand Ocasio-Cortez, make her apologize to Raichik, and strike her accusations from the congressional record.

Young girl straddled by drag queen during school's LGBT+ event – leadership to 'revise campus policies'



A public school in North Carolina is facing backlash after a video surfaced online of a young girl being straddled by a drag queen at a recent campus LGBT+ event.

Forsyth Technical Community College in Winston-Salem held an all-ages LGBTQ Pride Festival at a restaurant on campus on March 22. Students as young as 14 attend the school.

Advertisements for the event displayed around campus featured photographs of several drag queens and promoted a "drag performance" and "free food, drinks, music & activities."

A video from the event was obtained by Libs of TikTok and shared online. The short clip appeared to capture a drag queen performing a lap dance on a young girl while onlookers cheered.

\u201cThis is from a drag event in @ForsythTechCC where they also invited younger kids. \n\nA parent told me the kid getting the lap dance is a 10th grader. \n\nFull story here: https://t.co/YnMRuxqkNO\u201d
— Libs of TikTok (@Libs of TikTok) 1680184409

Paula Dibley, the school's chief officer of student success and strategic innovation, confirmed that the girl in the video is a student.

Dibley told Fox News Digital that "parents of children under 18 were not notified of this event in advance" but noted that "all events on campus are entirely voluntary."

The festival was hosted by the school's Pride Club and Prevent Ongoing Spread of STIs Everywhere, a program run by the Forsyth County Health Department. POSSE provided free HIV and STI testing stations at the event but has since backpedaled on its support of the drag show.

In a statement to Fox News Digital, Forsyth Public Health Director Joshua Swift said, "Our staff is committed to meeting the people we serve where they are. We believe we assign an appropriate amount of attention on the LGBTQIA community around education and prevention of sexually transmitted infections."

"Our staff was aware that there would be drag performances but was not involved with planning the event and had no information regarding the age of the attendees," Swift added. "We spent $58 on supplies from the department's operational budget which is funded locally and in part by the state of North Carolina. We do not condone the actions that allegedly took place during the event."

An anonymous individual told Fox News Digital that all students, including those in high school, were sent an email with information about the event. According to the individual, the email failed to mention the drag queen show but noted there would be free pizza. The person also stated that some children were seen "tipping" the drag performers with cash.

The situation prompted the school to review its event policies, Dibley reported.

"We have been in close contact with our early college school leadership and are talking with both leaders and parents about how we can revise campus policies and procedures regarding early and middle college students' attendance at campus events," Dibley said.

Woman behind Libs of TikTok writes children's book that 'will give parents and children a tool they can use to spot predatory behavior'



Chaya Raichik, the woman behind the Libs of TikTok Twitter account, has authored a children's book meant to help teach kids to trust their parents and not keep secrets from them.

"If an adult tells a child to keep a secret from their parents, that's a huge red flag. I wrote a kid's book which will give parents and children a tool they can use to spot predatory behavior. My goal is to get this book into as many homes, schools, and libraries in this country as possible!" she tweeted on the Libs of TikTok Twitter account.

\u201cIf an adult tells a child to keep a secret from their parents, that\u2019s a huge red flag. I wrote a kid\u2019s book which will give parents and children a tool they can use to spot predatory behavior.\n\nMy goal is to get this book into as many homes, schools, and https://t.co/qkD4dAW3O4\u2026\u201d
— Libs of TikTok (@Libs of TikTok) 1677385735

The forthcoming book, titled "No More Secrets: The Candy Cavern," targets 4- to 8-year-old kids.

"My book is a colorful, modern-day take on the classic, Little Red Riding Hood," Raichik wrote. "It is a fun, beautifully illustrated and age-appropriate story about a sheep named Rose who starts second grade with a new teacher, Mr. Wooly. He suspiciously convinces his students to eat candy and treats everyday at school while telling them to keep it a secret from their parents. Mr. Wooly uses phrases like, 'don't worry about what your parents said,' 'you can trust me,' and 'my class is a safe space.' These are the very phrases that predators in authority positions use on children. Without a strong foundation of trust in her family, Rose may not have felt that twinge of uncertainty alarming her that something was off."

Raichik uses the Libs of TikTok Twitter account to expose the activity and musings of radical leftists, often by reposting the videos that leftists themselves have shared online.

Seth Dillon, who is the CEO of the popular satire site the Babylon Bee, announced last year that he made a deal with Raichik that would "turn her heroic, high-risk work into a career" — he noted that he "personally" made the deal, and the Bee was not involved.

Dillon recently noted that Slack had permanently suspended service for Libs of TikTok: "If your business is defending kids, Slack doesn’t want your money," he tweeted.

Raichik is scheduled to speak at the upcoming CPAC conference.

\u201c.@SlackHQ has permanently suspended @libsoftiktok. If your business is defending kids, Slack doesn\u2019t want your money.\u201d
