‘American cultural revolution’: Student sacrifices her ‘bigoted’ Christian father at school board meeting

January 28, 2024 | | Print Article

An indoctrinated high schooler inadvertently cut an ad promoting homeschooling as she lauded faculty for leading her to trash her father’s “bigoted” conservative Christian beliefs.

Leftist vitriol for school choice was readily understandable after a Chapin, South Carolina high school senior stood up at a school board meeting Monday to throw her father under the bus as she completed her public right of passage into victimhood.

In just over three minutes of video from the District Five of Lexington and Richland Counties meeting on the topic of book banning, the student demonstrated all the hallmarks to lead Chinese Communist Party survivor Lily Tang Williams to conclude, “We are in the middle of American Cultural Revolution.”

“Very sad,” captioned the Republican congressional candidate in New Hampshire, “a HS student was brainwashed to slam her own parents, just like Red Guard (I was a member) did during Mao’s Cultural Revolution. Thank God, I did not publicly criticize my mom, but I did privately at home. Warning: We are in the middle of an American Cultural Revolution.”

Williams had shared a video circulated by Libs of TikTok with the caption, “This is so sad… student at @LexRich5Schools slams her Conservative Christian parents at a board meeting. She warns against ‘book banning’ and bashes Trump. She says she was inspired & influenced by her teachers. Schools are indoctrinating students and turning kids against their parents.”

In her own words, the student expressed, “I’m here to make a point about the dangerous consequences of book banning in public education…but tonight I would like to focus on my father and the [unintelligible] detrimental effect he has had on my life as a conservative, a Republican and a Christian.”

Recounting her experience growing up and defending then-candidate Donald Trump as a fourth-grader leading up to the 2016 presidential election to support her claim that she was a victim of her father’s “doctrine,” she told the board, “As a child who unquestioningly admired her father, I took him at his word and his one-sided, bigoted beliefs became ingrained in my identity.”

“I ignorantly endorsed a man who would have me suffer and even die in the name of political agendas,” claimed the high schooler who blamed a lack of exposure to “diverse” opinions as the cause before she cheered the English department faculty who “encouraged me to conduct my own research about the politicians from both parties who have the power to dictate my life. They did this without interjecting their own opinions or political affiliations.”

The meeting itself was part of ongoing disputes in the district where numerous titles promoted by publishers and influencers had been pegged as inappropriate to be carried in the school library. Most recently, this included the removal of all books from bestselling author Sarah J. Maas’ “A Court of Thorns and Roses” series for the explicit sexual content contained throughout marketed as “Young Adult Fantasy” despite the author herself categorizing as “New Adult” in an interview.

Similarly, the English department had garnered the support of bestselling author Ta-Nehisi Coates whom the Associated Press had reported attended a July 2023 school board meeting to back the inclusion of his CRT-peddling title “Between the World and Me” in the school’s curriculum.

Reactions to the display of apparent indoctrination had many pushing for the senior to be taught a hard lesson from her parents who have supported her while others, like billionaire Elon Musk, simply acknowledged how schools were working against families by saying, “True.”
