Lol. A thin blue line opinion blog that seems to exist to tell right wingers what to be afraid of and what to get outraged about? Seems legit. 🤣

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow You mean MSN is not a credible news source! You're learning....
@sunsporter1649 You are a very confused little man. Random blogs by right wing idiots like you are not real news.

"'This wasn't liberalism gone amok.' Brighton superintendent defends dropping 'Jingle Bells' song

Brighton Central School District Superintendent Kevin McGowan is defending Council Rock Primary School’s decision to drop secular holiday classic “Jingle Bells” from its curriculum.

On Dec. 23, the Rochester Beacon reported on the move to stop using and teaching the song, based in part on an article by professor Kyna Hamill, director of Boston University’s Core Curriculum, stating that the first public performance of "Jingle Bells" may have occurred in 1857 at a minstrel show in Boston.

The story quoted Council Rock principal Matt Tappon as saying the song had been replaced with other songs that didn’t have “the potential to be controversial or offensive.” "

Before one can come up with a comical retort to woke bullschiff some learned professor has written a paper about it
